In this two and a half day introduction to spoon carving we will cover all the skills necessary to fill your home with beautiful and useful wooden objects. From tree to spoon, I’ll guide you through safe and efficient use of the three simple tools you need for this craft – an axe, a knife and a spoon knife. We’ll focus on good technique and efficiency, helping you carve great wooden spoons with ease. Yes, you are definitely strong enough to use an axe!
