Carve your own bag clip. Perfect for chips or snack bags!

This class is an introduction to the craft of greenwood carving. Greenwood is recently cut wood that has not been dried. It is ideal for new carvers since it is softer than seasoned wood and more enjoyable to work with.We will start by practicing safety and proper knife grips. After that we will work on carving your very own bag clip.

No experience is needed and carvers of all skill levels and abilities are welcome. All supplies and tools provided.

Wear comfortable clothes you don’t mind getting full of wood chips and close toed shoes.
