Second, a small eater in Lime (Linden) made start to finish in the same session as finishing the one above, sanded exterior surfaces, bowl has a tooled finish, was originally going to leave it natural, but nah, looked boring, so added a splash of colour.

Hi Kepis, these look really nice. I think that the blue on the lime one is a good idea as the natural wood doesn't have a lot of detail, so it gives it a bit of 'wow'

Nice spoons Mark.

Using the paint on the lime spoon really makes it stand out. What paint do you use for your spoons?

Nice spoons Mark.

I use chalk paint and seal it with finishing wax, its not water proof, but water repellant, seems to work ok though if you take a little care taken when washing up, i know lots of people use milk paint or acrylics, i saw this in the shop and thought id give it a go

Both are excellent! You're really on a roll with these spoons.
