I had some walnut scraps laying around and decided to carve a spoon.

This ended up beng too small and would only hold about a teaspoon. So for now it's just practice, which is somthing I did need. The walnut itself was bone dry and not very easy to carve.

I plan on taking a branch from the backyard to do another one in greenwood.

Its not about the size, its about the fun you had making it.
