Description

"When we begin work on the piece of wood... this is hard to describe, but we can "see" the spoon in the wood before we begin. We were talking to a duck decoy carver once and were inquiring how he did it. He said just take away everything that doesn't look like a duck. We understand exactly what he was talking about now. There are 8 steps involved in making each piece. There are no pieces exactly alike -- they each have their own personality." "Spoon making is a hard, dirty, back-breaking job. It is not without its rewards though. Opening up a piece of wood is like opening a Christmas present. We are always stopping each other to comment how beautiful that piece of wood is or how this spoons feels "just right". More rewarding is the response from our customers. At one show, a customer commented she had sent a set of spoons to a friend in Key West. She called her after a hurricane evacuation to find out how she was. She told her the only thing she took with her was her handmade spoons."
