Default My first batch of spoons

Well, here's the result of my first attempt at some cooking spoons. They turned out fairly well and were all well received as Xmas presents. The 2 on each end are maple and the center one is peach. I've enjoyed making these and I know that they won't be the last as I have another ready for sanding and a rough blank drying out as we speak.

Those are really nice, I especially like the grain on the one made of peach.
