| | Re: Love Spoons I've seen a few love spoons but not like you've posted here. The dark and light adds a very nice contrast. I can't believe I haven't tried an Irish Love Spoon with me being a strong Irishman.

| | Re: Love Spoons Lovely work. I like the lines on the second picture. I also agree the dark and light makes for nice contrast. Did you burn the wood to make the dark areas? |

| | Re: Love Spoons The background does look nice. I like the first one best because you have added some depth with the 3D ribbion wraping around the spoon, nice affect!
