Woodturning for the Kitchen [Workshop]

Join us for a hands-on woodturning class where function meets fun! In this engaging workshop, students will learn the art of shaping wood on the lathe while crafting a collection of beautiful and practical kitchen tools. Using a variety of hardwoods, you’ll create:

  • A sleek French rolling pin for effortless dough work
  • A charming salt cellar to elevate your seasoning game
  • A sweet honey jar with a turned lid and dipper
  • Custom scoops or spatulas tailored to your cooking style

Whether you’re a novice woodturner or looking to expand your skills, this class offers a creative and rewarding experience. You’ll leave with handcrafted pieces you’ll be proud to use—or gift—and a deeper appreciation for the craft. Let the shavings fly and the creativity flow!

Instructor: Ron Patterson
