Join Dave Crosbie from Tree-ditions to learn the traditional craft of shrink pots in this hands-on course. Using freshly cut green wood, you’ll carve and shape a hollow vessel and fit a wooden base without glue or hardware. The pot then naturally shrinks to lock it in place. Discover the beauty of this simple yet ingenious technique and finish your pot with your own decorative style. Perfect for creating unique, functional containers with character.
