Whimsical Folk: Crafting Wooden Dolls & Animals
This workshop blends the charm of folk art with the expressive nature of modern design, using found wood to craft one-of-a-kind dolls and animals. Inspired by the patterns and textures of textile design, we’ll explore whimsy and character through shape, color, and form.
Process:
Select your wood pieces and sculpt or glue elements to build your character
Prep the doll’s surface for painting and design
Trace your shape and explore simple design ideas on cardboard or acrylic
Apply your designs, using folk-inspired patterns and modern expression
By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a beautifully handcrafted piece full of personality, texture, and storytelling—an artwork that feels both timeless and uniquely yours.
Schedule:
🖌 Friday, Saturday & Sunday, 10-3 PM (3 days)
