My week of spoons
With the other gravy ladle I made the spoon mirror below. The little girl is my red headed sister with her finger curls. I bought a teddy bear charm and painted it to match for the front.
Below is all the spoons I did this week. I made 3 spoon books. I used dye inks and painted or dabbed all the spoons a different color. I figured out the words for them and printed them on my computer. I wrapped the three small baby spoons with colored wire and beads. I wrapped the 4 spoon book with a varigated ribbon and put a bow at the top. The spoon book with 3 spoons and the knife I wrapped in wire and beads and on the baby spoon put tiny safety pins and on the knife I put a jasper stone cross. I colored all the silver rings that hold the spoons onto the big rings with dye the color of the big rings and then put some fiber on the big rings. I doubt I'll make any more but it was fun to try it once.
