gorgeous crafts inspired
by the great outdoors
Discover the beauty of freshly cut wood (or sustainably sourced options out of season) and learn how to transform it into a unique sculpture in this hands-on Green Wood Sculpture Workshop.
Working with green (fresh) wood is a joy — it’s softer, more responsive, and perfect for sculpting expressive forms. During this relaxed and creative session, you’ll be guided through the process of shaping your own small sculpture using traditional hand tools. Whether you’re inspired by natural forms, abstract shapes, or something entirely personal, you’ll leave with a piece that is uniquely yours.
✨ What to expect:
• Introduction to working with green wood
• Safe use of simple tools
• Guidance on shaping and refining your sculpture
• A relaxed, supportive atmosphere for beginners and improvers
No prior experience is needed — just curiosity and a willingness to explore the material. All tools and materials will be provided.
Green wood has a life and character all of its own, and sculpting it can be both grounding and deeply satisfying. Come and spend some time slowing down, connecting with natural materials, and discovering what emerges from the wood.
All your materials and tools are included as well as endless tea and coffee for in person courses!
For Live Online or On Demand Courses please allow up to 7-10 days for your materials kit.
