Spoon plant labels

Have you got some old spoons lying around?
Well I didn't so I had to go for an op shop/thrift store visit, which you know I absolutely LOVE to do, and ended up making these spoon plant labels.

All you need are some letter stamps, a rubber mallet, steel wool, black marker and off you go.

Just pound away at the spoon until it's completely flat, preferably outside, mark out your letters, stamp them and colour in the letters with more black marker and use your steel wool to rub gently and get rid of excess marker and shine up your spoons.
Have fun and a fabulous weekend


edited to play along with Sophie's meme tomorrow, pop by and have a peek.

  3. These are lovely! I've seen them also but with vintage paper and modpodge style. I far prefer the way you have done them. Thanks for sharing I'll definitely add them to my spring list of things to do!
