Birch Spoon and Bowl

[Erdbeereis]

Here's my first bowl I ever made.

My new makers mark is my initials, B.S.

And here's another cooking spoon I made. It's also birch.

I love this pic.

For some reason, this pic makes the spoon look really antique.

I am gifting the spoon to my friend that gave me pretty much his whole birch tree that he cut down.

Nice work and great photography!
I should really source some good birch to make a bowl like this out of, as first go's go, it looks great.

Nice work.

Everything you make from now on will remind you of those first two pieces, and you will always want to have "something on the go."

Welcome to the dark side

Thanks guys! I've carved kuksas and spoons before these, it was just my first bowl. Here's my Flickr stream if anyone wants to look at all of my other carvings.

I just started seriously carving in December/January.
