🎄 Ornament Making Plus Experience for 1 Person
A creative and hands-on 3-hour session that lets you try basic woodturning and finish your own custom hanging ornament—a great mix of skill-building and artistic fun. This is the next step up from my standard ornament session, perfect if you want to get more involved.
 
✨ What You'll Do
In this extended experience, you’ll create two unique pieces to take home:
• Turn a simple spindle-style cylinder from scratch on the lathe
• Finish a custom hanging ornament by sanding, sealing, waxing & colouring.
• Embellish with gold wax & High Gloss and attach a hook, and choose your ribbon
• Leave with both pieces as lasting mementos of your time in the workshop
Each step is demonstrated clearly, and I’ll guide you throughout the process to make sure you’re comfortable and confident.
