I made Painted, Beaded, Tassel Decor out of them.
They are fun and unique.
This is not a tutorial
but instead, the process
that I went through to get to the final product.
I drilled tiny holes around the edge of the spoon and painted it (them) antique white.
I then did some decorative painting on the front bowl of the spoon and sprayed them with sealer. I then bent the handles. Now you know why I use old silver spoons, they are easy to bend...
Using the holes that I drilled into the edge of the spoon, I used wire and various beads to embellish each one...
After finishing all the beading, I tied ribbon bows and now they are ready for hanging from lamp shades...
Or a pitcher...
Or anything else you can hang something fun and unique from!
I will be drawing the winner's for the giveaway prizes on Monday, so hurry and enter!

These are so cute! Wish I could paint....but maybe I could do something else on the main part. I love beads and they look so pretty hanging down from these spoons! Thanks for sharing...saw it at Sunday's Best!
ReplyDeleteI love them, what a cute idea. I love old silverware and sometimes only find a piece or two, this would be great to use on the spoons. Love the beads on the end. I can't paint, so I'll come up with something else. Thanks for sharing your creative inspiration at Sunday's Best.
ReplyDeleteYour spoons are lovely! Thanks for the tip on the old spoons! I wanted to make a spoon ring and I could not get it to move one inch! Now I'm on the hunt for old spoons!
