Relaxing Spoon Carving Workshop | Haddenham Arts Centre | 28 June 2025
Saturday 28 June 10.30 am – 4.00 pm
£80 including a welcome tea/coffee & biscuits, materials, use of equipment on the day & tutoring.
Suitable for children 14+ accompanied by an adult.
This relaxing & immersive session will teach you how to carve a large serving spoon or spatula (or both if time allows) while seated on your own safe “spoon mule” – designed so you are always comfortably cutting away from your body.
You’ll learn how to use a spoke shave to create your own handle design and help to carve the outside of your spoon bowl, and a curved carving tool to make the bowl of the spoon. Once you understand how to use the tools, you can then let your creativity run wild and enjoy this really mindful, relaxing and quite meditative process.
The session is hands-on, and the student will be able to use their own equipment on the day to create their pieces.
The workshop is taking place at the Haddenham Arts Centre which has its own café where you can have lunch - workshop participants are entitled to a 10% discount - do pre-order when you arrive and let the staff know you are a student - or you are of course welcome to bring your own packed lunch or use facilities in the village.
This would make a fabulous CRAFTY GIFT for someone - so drop us a line and we can post/email you/the recipient a complimentary personalised gift certificate for this experience🎁
We also offer this workshop as a 1-2-1 immersive experience or for pairs – so couples or even parents and children can come along and xperience the art of spoon carving together!
