Scandinavian Bentwood Boxes
Workshop | Available
Scandinavian bentwood boxes can be made in a wide variety of styles and materials inviting you to explore your personal creativity. The process of steam bending wood is exciting and fast paced. The opportunity to work quietly and efficiently with hand-tools is a luxury. The Scandinavian bentwood box combines both. Learn steam bending of wood, make Norwegian style latches, use a variety of hand tools to shape and add interest to the lid, latches and base, explore your own creativity, and finish up with lasting treasures and skill to make more.
