About This Event

A Spoon Carving Workshop is held at Kedleston Hall in Derby on 5 September 2026. The session is led by Kedleston Ranger and expert wood carver Paul Adamson. It focuses on the craft of green woodworking using simple hand tools. Tickets are free.

Join Paul Adamson, Kedleston Ranger and expert wood carver with over 20 years experience.

Green woodworking is the craft of using simple hand tools with freshly felled wood, to make functional items for the home and garden. Spoon carving is a good way to learn a great deal of information on the subject in a one day course.

You will be guided through the safe use of the axe and knives, learn about wood types and preparation, form and function, Scandinavian Slojd tradition and decoration methods. Wood will be provided from the Kedleston estate with plenty spare for you to take some home to practice with.

With your newly acquired spoons and skills, you will gain the confidence to take things further and progress onto other projects within this interesting and fulfilling craft.
