Learn to Carve Wooden Spoons in Edinburgh

Have you ever wanted to be able to carve your own utensils? Alan at Alien Spoons teaches the traditional craft of spoon carving using locally sourced sustainable wood. Start with a log and leave with a spoon. You’ll learn how to split logs, trim wood and use carving knives to add the final details and decoration to your spoon. Following techniques meant to ensure durability and strength to make you spoon usable, you’ll come away with something that’s not just functional, but also unique to you!

If you get in contact with Alan directly he can tailor your course to suit you and your group, he can even come to you if you’d like to book a class where you live. If the weather is good enough you can even take your course outdoor in their beautiful wildlife garden. He also provides vegan food during carving courses.
