Description:
Create a meaningful and visually striking piece of wall art in our Negative Space Wood Cross Workshop. In this hands-on class, you’ll build a beautifully layered wood cross that uses negative space design to form the primary shape.
Rather than the cross being made solely from solid material, the design is defined by the empty space around and within the structure. This powerful design principle allows the cross to emerge from contrast, shadow, and dimension — creating a piece that is both modern and timeless.
Inspired by rustic and reclaimed wood aesthetics, this project highlights natural wood textures, varied grain patterns, and a subtle three-dimensional effect. Through thoughtful layering and spacing, your finished piece will have depth, warmth, and character.
What You’ll Learn:
🔨 How to choose and measure stock
🪚 Safe cutting techniques for clean, accurate components
📐 Layout methods for balanced negative space design
🧰 Assembly and fastening techniques
🔥 Burning techniques to add contrast, depth, and a rustic finish
🎨 Sanding and finishing to enhance natural wood texture
What’s included:
✔ All materials and wood
✔ Tools and workspace
✔ Guided instruction
✔ Finishing supplies
✔ A completed cross ready to display
Duration: 2 hours
Skill Level: This workshop is beginner-friendly, yet fun for all.
