Whittling Spoons with Carol Russell

Whittling Spoons with Carol Russell


In this workshop you will learn to design and carve a spoon as well as which tools are the best to use, how to sharpen them and keep them in good condition and which woods make the best spoons. Guided by highly experienced local carver Carol Russell.

Carol will take you through the process of hand carving a wooden spoon made from a seasoned timber blank using only hand tools. Carving your own spoons is a wonderful engaging past time, it’s very portable and can be done under a tree in the bush, or out back at your favourite bookshop and café. Beware, as it’s highly addictive and you may find yourself neglecting all your other hobbies.

All tools and materials are supplied, we only ask that you wear closed in shoes for safety.
