About this Workshop
Skew work can be easy and fun! In this hands-on weekend class, students will turn green wood into beautiful flowers that never wilt. Along the way, they will develop essential woodturning skills, including tool control with the skew, spindle gouge, and parting tool. Participants will also learn to prepare wood for color, paint their flowers, and assemble the finished pieces. These skills transfer easily to future projects, giving students a chance to build confidence while creating something unique. By the end of the weekend, each student will have a timeless bouquet of one-of-a-kind wooden botanicals.
