Whittling is a simple and fun hobby that many people enjoy all over the world. In this hands-on class, carve your own one-of-a-kind necklace, comb, hairpins, or similar object! Learn how to use carving tools safely and select wood for your project. Gain skills in making basic cuts and using proper whittling techniques. You will also learn how to sharpen and hone your tools to keep them razor-sharp. This type of small object can be a bit more delicate than carving a spoon, so it's great practice. If you’ve taken carving classes with us before, this will be an opportunity to hone your skills and enjoy working on another project with Saman and a classroom of peers. Discover a new hobby, develop handy skills, and meet other crafty folks in this rewarding class! No previous whittling experience is required.
