We saw on Pintrest where folks use a wood burning kit to decorate wooden spoons. That looked like a great gift idea, but I also decided to make the wooden spoons. Most of the spoons we see in the store are pretty flimsy so I decided to use some hickory and make some spoons that could really hold up to stirring up a big double batch of snickerdoodles.

A coat of 'spoon butter' provides a food safe finish
and really makes the wood 'pop'!
