Wooden spoon care!
Did you know that you can oil and burnish your dry, worn wooden spoons? We lead a “spoon spa” at the craft cafe* last month. If the wood is looking fuzzy you can burnish it with a smooth stone or piece of deer antler. If it’s looking dry, apply a polymerizing oil such as Flax Seed, Grape Seed, or Walnut oil. Use a cotton cloth to apply a thin coat and allow to dry for a few days.
We oiled and burnished these well loved spoons. Check out the before and after results!
*On the first Sunday of each month, Farmhouse Pantry in Saranac hosts Craft Cafe. There’s always space for new crafters!
