Creating something as fundamentally human as a wooden spoon using simple hand tools can be a satisfying experience. Come spend the Saturday with Nordic Edge and walk away not only with the experience, but also a full set of spoon carving tools and a beautiful wooden spoon made with your own hands!
This guided workshop will take you through the process of selecting materials and the relaxing process of making your own wooden spoon. After a safety briefing in the courtyard at Old Government House you will receive your tools and sustainably sourced materials. Then we will spend a few hours slowly carving a spoon, from axe work to bowl carving and the whittling of the bowl outline. We’ll break for lunch before completing the spoon in the afternoon. You will leave not only with your spoon, but with the tools and skills required to continue your journey as a spoonsmith!
