You'll never look at an ordinary wooden spoon in quite the same way after browsing this book of fun loving, whimsical, and wacky designs for anything and everything you can do with wooden spoons.

Here you'll find ideas for transforming a wooden spoon into a mobile for having above an infant's crib, plant markers for the garden, table and wall art, party favors, and even friendly-faced toothbrush and washcloth holders for the bathroom.

Projects are easy to make with simple instructions and basic materials. Using acrylic paints, a plain wooden spoon comes to life as any number of colorful characters from a honeybee to a scarecrow and Santa Claus. These projects are suited for adults and are also excellent for crafting with kids of all ages.
