I did this a lot as a kid but since then it seemed like a little more effort than it’s worth.
Last night I had some friends round after a really tough week and seeing how much joy everyone got from carving their designs was so magic!!!
I want to do this every year now.

It's just the season for it! Every autumn I try making something new with my hands. It's been crocheting, oil painting, clay...eventually I will become the unstoppable frankensteins monster of crafting

I’m whittling for the first time. Or perhaps I’m carving, it’s unclear where whittling ends and carving begins. It could be once you use a sander. Either way, I’m finding it to be a rewarding and engaging task

recently i have been taking wood carving classes at the community centre. i initially wanted to sign up for something more conventional e.g. pottery or sewing but they were all full. this ended up being a blessing in disguise because wood carving rocks. i’m by far there slowest person in the class but i really enjoy the methodical process. reflecting, i realize i had been doing my own sort of wood carving as a child who fidgeted a lot and was always tearing apart branches and popsicle sticks. any way, right now my project is a leaf sculpture that isn’t really “my taste” but i hope afterwards to make a cool large bowl for my coffee table that i can fit trinkets in
