Bird Whittling Workshop
Whittle Your Own Comfort Bird
A comfort bird is a small wooden carving designed to fit perfectly in the palm of your hand. Traditionally, these gentle forms are given as tokens of care, love, and support — their smooth curves and organic warmth bringing a sense of calm and connection to the natural world.
In this hands-on whittling class, you'll learn how to carve your very own comfort bird from timber. Along the way, you’ll discover how to prepare wood for carving, safely handle a whittling knife, and care for your tools — including stropping and sharpening techniques.
No experience is needed — your friendly and experienced instructor will guide you step by step. You’ll be amazed at how quickly you gain confidence and skill as your bird takes shape before your eyes.
By the end of the session, you’ll take home your beautifully carved comfort bird — a small, meaningful object to hold, gift, or treasure.
What you’ll get:
- One bird carving blank to work on during class
- The option to purchase additional blanks and whittling knives on the day
