Build a Rustic Stool

Studio
5 Day Class (9am-12pm)
Tuition: $110 (includes lab fee)
Materials: $10

Let your imagination go!  Create a stool or bench you can sit or stand on.  We'll make a smooth top that won't poke you, cut legs out of tree branches and attach them solidly to the top.  Use straight branches or curvy ones that look like animal legs!  Bring your own branches from home if you want, or we'll have plenty to choose from here, too.  Sticks can be fresh or dried, just make sure they're not rotten.  Small class size will ensure individual attention.
