Create 2 Fun Bud Vases!
Are you a plant lover who needs to elevate your propagation station? Or a forager who often finds yourself carrying home a bit of nature? Whether this describes you, or if you are looking to enhance your woodworking skills and make a thoughtful gift for someone, this workshop is for you.
In this 1-day workshop, students will leave with a pair of bud vases of their own and the skills to begin creating their own designs. In this class we will cover shop safety and use of the bandsaw, spindle sander, edge sander, drill press, as well as various hand tools. Students will also learn sanding best practices and how to achieve a perfect finish. We welcome all makers, from beginners to advanced.
Materials are provided. We recommend students bring your own eye protection, ear protection & apron. Aprons for sale here.
No experience necessary. Ages 18+ welcome. Students are welcome to bring a snack for a short break mid-class.
