Once you take up carving, you're never going to want to stop.
Today, I'm going to carve a simple project, just for the fun of it.
It's going to be a Birch-themed wooden spoon.
I've heard a lot of people say that they would like to start carving, but just don't think they have the talent for it.
Well, Bob Ross once said, " Talent is a pursued interest; anything you're willing to practice, you can do"
Some of the first things I started carving was wooden spoons, cups and little twig roosters. I had a lot of fun making them and giving them away as gifts.
Pearl wasn't sure what to think of her reflection.
The only way to experience the joy of carving is to get yourself a good set of carving knives and start whittling.
Thanks for watching! I'll see you all on the next one! - Навчання та стиль
If you're interested in carving or know someone who is...there are links in the description to some great carving tools that I use. Thanks to everyone for your support and kind comments!
Stinnett Sticks the same to you and your family
Thank you for the links! 😊Me and my mum want to start carving and wood burning 👍
Nice awsome job. You r Always the best
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. Give your pup a good back scratching from me. I miss Sugar. She looks just like your pup.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family as well.
Love the Bob Ross pose on the thumbnail!
Sir Dan Haha! I'm glad you noticed that!
Come on now Sir. You know Bob liked to keep his left hand off camera and usually faced to the right on camera cause he was self concious about havin 4 fingers on that(palette) hand *wink*
Started another walking stick last night carved till 3 am. It's my pain therapy. This one has a spiralled run of trumpet vine and leafs. Love chunks and chips.
I'll bet that's a beautiful walking stick, Ray!
Man watching you carve is to me like going fishing the whole world goes away
You truly are the bob Ross of wood carving. I love your videos so much. Pearl in her little jacket melted my heart. You guys are both so sweet
My 3 children and I love to lay down and turn on your videos. They're always excited to see Pearl. Even my youngest at 3 years of age can easily see the bond you two have is priceless.
Thank you for sharing your talents with us in such a beautiful way.
My wife is from a small town outside of Lexington, KY - they have to drag me home to FL every year - kicking and screaming.
I'll take a cool mountain stream flowing through an old growth forest over a sweltering crowded beach any day.
Happy Holidays!
I'm really glad you and your kids enjoy the videos. I know what you mean...it's really peaceful in the woods. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your famly!
Pearl is just beautiful. You and her have such a strong bond. ❤️
Hello sir, my name is Arne, I live in South Africa 🇿🇦 and I love carving. I don’t have access to electric carving tools in my area (I do have a grinder though) and most online stores don’t ship to SA. But I do have a set of carving knifes and I was hoping you could do more ‘carving like a beaver’
Thanks
Thank you for your comment Arne! I will definitely try to do more hand carving videos in the future! Take care my friend! And happy carving!
Thank you sir! Have a nice day and God bless!
Great video. I'm a new carver and your first carvings are exactly what I like to carve. There's nothing better than taking a piece of wood from a tree and making a spoon or a rooster from it. Thanks for sharing your talent.
For a “simple spoon” that sure is pretty. Thanks for another great video Mike.
Thank you very much Colin!
I think you left out the fact that if someone wants to be as good as you it takes almost a lifetime. I have been sculpting for almost 20 years. And I'm still blown away at the things you do. I like watching your videos before bed because the relaxing banjo, amazing art and your calm demeanor makes a great ending to a day. You inspire.
What a life. Sitting by the creek doing what you love with your best friend.
I greet you Mike .. Thank you for the pause that gives you a break and enjoy the beauty of your work and the environment .. Let’s say hello to me
I've always likened you to Bob Ross, I'm not particularly interested in carving but watching your videos always seems to melt all of life's stress and anxiety away. Thank you, from canada!
I feel happy when people are so passionate about something
Watching your videos brings peace to my heart. Thank you so much for taking the time to make these videos. The creek was so nice to hear and Pearl is a cute dog. God bless you my friend.
At about 3:00, well, it just doesn't get any better than when a special friend climbs up to see what you're doing...
I feel relaxed after watching this video. Thanks, I needed that!
Hey Mike I started power carving about 8 months ago and your videos help a lot . I am from Hood River originally but have lived in South Carolina for the past 50 years also a Vietnam vet.......................ken
It looks so beautiful there relaxed in your chair. That PEARL sure loves you. Thanks and I hope you and your family has a great Thanksgiving also
Thank you Rodney! It was a really nice place to carve! We had a great time there! I hope you have a very happy Thanksgiving, my friend!
I love your art
Oh my goodness Mike, that is so beautiful. What an awesome place to sit and carve, by the water. With the cute Pearl next to you, I just love her face. Thanks for sharing, take care as always from South Africa
AND A VERY HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU AND YOURS ❤️❤️
Thank you very much Val! It was a really nice place to carve! God bless you and yours!
Too beautiful to utilize, I'd love a set of them from small to large.
A good tip for the novice carver is to choose a simple object and remake numerous times so those mistakes teaches them how to use a Woods Grain/Nature to their advantage instead of fighting it. Indeed many might try to carve a branch with Leaves/Acorns first but most experienced carvers know that complexity and skill grow together not separately. However just a single Acorn carved over and over will show how your skills are progressing as by the time it surprising you that what's sitting in your hands was made by them moving on to add that Chipmunk having one in its paws won't be that far away. Sculptors have often said that their freeing what they see inside a Stone Block more than anything else and Wood Carving is similar as it's the art of removing the material that's revealed when it's finished.
The Bob Ross of wood work. This is so relaxing
Just another great video of yours that made my day.
Pearl so cute in her sweater, God bless her. Great spoon carving. Great starter project for those afraid of just beginning to carve. As artists, we both know it's not about the skill we worry about but the joy of the process that brings us peace. God bless you and your channel. May you bring many the *Joy of Carving.*
Thank you very much, Marlon! God bless you too my friend!
Watching you carve a spoon is kinda like listening to Liberace play chop sticks! You are truly a master's master!
👍👍👍 спасибо за то что вы есть! очень красивые пейзажи и сочные видео.
Hi Mike, great to motivate people this way to grab a knife and a piece of wood and try carving, thanks for the tips my friend and this beautiful video, all the best, Taro
You're very welcome, Taro! Thank you for the kind comment my friend! Tschuss Ciao and Bye bye! :)
I really like your work, it's amazing, I'm from Indonesia.
Pokoke mantap lahh😀
"...little twig roosters." I love it!😁
They're a lot of fun to make!
Hello I always watch your videos, I also make carvings in the wood, and you were my inspiration, thanks
Thank you very much Jamin! I am glad you were inspired by my videos! Best wishes on your carving!
Hi Mike.
loved the video and Happy Thanksgiving to you and Pearl and your Family.
I was watching Bob years ago, and he was talking about HIS Teacher of Art...
he said he was asked "Bob,
What do you love to Paint..and he said " I guess I love to paint the Trees. "
His Teacher said..Well, then Paint those Trees.
and he said it stuck.
I loved that. You're loved a lot out here Mike. see you and Pearl soon! Thanks again!!
Thank you very much, my friend! I like what you said about Bob Ross. I think that's what everyone should do: the things that they enjoy.
Hello mike my name is glenn im from the uk i came across your channel a while ago i would like to thank for bringing calmness and peace to my life at this moment in time keep up the fantastic beautiful work 👍
I'm new at this craft .. something I always wanted to do.. want to tell you that I love the peace that transfer from you, a truly Joy. it's very admired. 🙏🕊️ Thank you for sharing..
Oh my he reads the comments! I am in class but I hope I remember to watch this later
Yep, I read all the comments! Thanks for yours!
Your probably nit gonna read this but the chill vibe your videos create help relax and make me forget about my anxiety. I really wanted to thank for that.
You're very welcome! I'm glad you enjoy the videos!
Bloody brilliant. Love that slower style of life. Coffee brewing and dog chilling by your side. Loved it.
Как всегда здорово! Люблю смотреть как вы создаёте шедевры!
My dad is carving a handle for his axe. Its really interesting, even if its a simple thing, like my dads axe handle!
I get as much enjoyment out of making the simple things as I get out of the more complicated carvings!
It just amazes me something so simple can pull you in make you feel so much!! Very beautiful little spoon and project!! Thank you for sharing with us!! Ive never wanted to carve a spoon so bad before now!!
The skill of living close to nature and saving wood from nature to create wonderful works is very nice.
Starts carving a spoon... ends up with a chair, coffee & a dog in a sleeping bag. Nice one 😸
Just Beautiful to do and to see what you have made. Being at peace with nature and happiness! 🌳🌲🗡🏆😊👍
I love it when people ask " are you gonna take on a pupil?" I figure stinnett sticks probably has 1000s of pupils. The channel literally lets you watch the entire process. Thanks for the free tutelage!! Just watchin these videos makes we want to do a burning or carving. I did a couple recent burnings. I hadn't done it for ....um 30years or so, didnt turn out that bad I must say. I got better with age and without practice. You never know till you try. Thanks Sifu
Water, Stone, Dog, Knive, Fire and Time to carving......... Best Way to live the Day...
I'm gonna admit it....
I'm jealous...
Such a beautiful nature, peace, a cup of coffee on a fire, you're dog...
How great the simple things in life can be 😍
I started 10 years ago. Found out I was a natural. It's so rewarding to create something out of bothing...oretty soon it takes on a life and soul of its own. Getting paid is nice but the reward is the beauty you've created.
Nothing, not bothing...typo.lol
Yes, It's very rewarding!
The master is at it again.. A real privilege.
Whittling merit badge for Cub Scouts is coming up in January. Thanks for such an inspiring video!
i love pearl so much she's such a sweetheart 😭
You take something so simple, and make it so beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
I enjoy your videos very much. Pearl reminds me of my best friend Dottie. She would always be in my lap. Love Pearl all you can cause when they pass it leaves a big hole in your life. God Bless
Thank you, Don! Yes, we get really attached to our dogs. They become another member of the family. It hurts when they pass. God bless you too!
Your so awesome at what you do enough said
Thank you very much, Brooklyn!
Pearl steals the show....Again!! Another nice relaxing video. Happy Thanksgiving to you Mike, Pearl, and your family.......and to everyone reading this!

Thank you very much! God bless you too!
That dog loves you to heaven and back.
It's amazing how you can take something as simple as a spoon and make it so elegant. I just may take your advice and give it a try.
Thank you William! I hope you do give it a try! Like I said, once you start carving, you're never gonna wanna stop!
The person who films and edits your videos is almost as amazing an artist as you are. What a fantastic team
There is a lot of pleasure in simple forms - excellent work as always - stay safe!
It was fun watching you carve such a beautiful spoon from that stick of wood, Mike. You really portray the joy of what you do in the Lord. It shows on your face. (^_^)
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family and I hope you'll all have a marvelous and blessed day together.
Take care now.
Kind regards.
Liz.
I'm glad you enjoyed it Liz, and thank you for your kind words! I wish you a very happy and blessed Thanksgiving Too!

I wonder how many times you’ve been told that you look like Gary Jenkins? He’s an awesome painter and you’re an awesome woodcarver !!! Thanks for you videos. 🤠
Love watching ur videos, its nice to watch ur relation with Pearl, its so nice when he sits with you when u are carving ;)
Absolutely delightful. If that was my spoon it would be prominently and permanently displayed; never hidden away in a drawer between uses.
Another great video. I too find it enjoyable carving spoons
Это шикарно) и лампово^_^ (тепло, атмосферно, вдохновляюще)
