Wooden Spoon Carving

1/8

KNIFE REQUIRED

Your child will need to have a Mora Craftline Basic Fixed Blade Knife (Stainless Steel blade) for this class. These are readily available to buy online or you can purchase one from us during registration.

PREREQUISITE: Students attending this class must be KNIFE CERTIFIED with us (or have equivalent knife experience and contacted Earth Native to receive approval to enroll.)

One of the most satisfying things we can do as humans is make a useful tool with our own hands. Carving a wooden spoon can not only open a door for your child into a world of creativity and artistry but it will also help your kids to develop a cool new skill that they can be proud of. This awesome class will teach kids how to make a beautiful and useful wooden spoon out of a piece of Eastern red cedar.

In this class, we will cover:

How to split out a spoon blank from a larger piece of wood
Spoon carving techniques
Spoon finishing (sanding and applying the oil finish).
Knife safety and proper knife use techniques

By the end of this class, your child will be well on their way to transforming a piece of wood into a beautiful and unique product of their own creation. Each student will bring home the necessary knowledge and materials to complete a wooden spoon that they can use as a functional tool, admire as a piece of art, and of course be super proud of.

All materials will be provided.
