Love that plum wood Scott. That's a beauty.
Another mullberry wood spoon. The handle is crooked because of the wood grain direction in the spoon. It actually works good in the hand even though it doesn't look like it.

Nice spoon Doug! I tried to make one of those match stick flowers of yours this evening on the couch. ::doh::
Ended up with a pile of splinters & one small cut on my left index finger. ::dang:: ::super_happy::

Thanks! Sorry to hear that. Start on a corner just slightly down from the very top. Then do another just to the right of it and another just a little bit to the right turning it as you go. I highly recommend at least a decent leather glove on your left hand.

Ok Thanks for the tip Doug! As soon as I get brave enough to try it again, I'll wear a glove. ::tu:: :mrgreen:

Yes sir. The wood was gnarly and twisted and told me what shape it wanted to be. :)

Just finished this hammered spoon. The back of the bowl is chipped, making it look hammered and not sanded.....I just thought it
was cool to leave it like that.....
