Spoon Carving Workshop with Journey Wild

About

Spoon carving workshop on the Isle of Wight

Have you ever wanted to carve a spoon from scratch? Join us in the woods for this full day workshop.

Learn to carve a cooking spoon beginning with a branch section, carving it all the way down to finished spoon.

We will learn axe techniques to remove material efficiently, moving on to a straight carving knife to further shape our spoons, followed by the curved hook knife to carve out the bowls.

Becoming a part of the making process with an everyday item such as a spoon is a great way to connect with the organic material of wood and appreciate the natural world.
