I have this really neat idea for the wooden spoons but I don't have enough wooden spoons to make it and it is too incredibly cold to hit the streets and the stores and find them. So I played around with regular dinner spoons and still love the idea, however, they aren't wooden and don't qualify for this contest.

And there's no way I'm going anywhere to buy wooden spoons, no way in this cold wind. I would turn into an instant icicle.

So, I took pictures because I'm going to make this before spring, and it really could be made with wooden spoons, although I'm going to use cheap silver ones that you find at yard sales or even at dollar stores. I like the idea of sun striking the silver. I haven't glued them all together but the project is so simple it looks finished just laid out on the table. When I finish the real thing, it could be hung on a fence or propped against a tree or even if using small spoons, could be hung from a limb.

So do you want to see pictures now or since it isn't eligible for the contest do you want pictures later, Becky and Vic?? It's nothing earthshaking, just a simple idea along the lines of the stacked plate flowers.
