Stamped Coffee Spoons

S T A M P E D C O F F E E S P O O N S

I've only been drinking coffee for about 3 years now, so you could say I'm rather new to the scene. Despite being an amateur coffee drinker, I enjoy adding little things here & there to decorate and beef up my little coffee space. Even if you are not a coffee drinker, Im sure you can name at least five people surviving from one cup of joe to the next. So, since Valentine's Day is just right around the corner, here is a cute gift idea that will be sure to wow!

If you were to order a stamped spoon from any given Etsy shop you will surely spend between $10-$15 per spoon! That's an amazing return for the seller, however, I knew that I could make something awesome myself, and for a fraction of the cost! I was able to find 30 spoons of all shapes and sizes from thrift stores and goodwill. After gathering spoons and supplies, the cost of each spoon averaged out at $1.20.

D I R E C T I O N S :

1.) CLEAN ALL YOUR SPOONS WITH RUBBING ALCOHOL

2.) YOU AND ANOTHER PERSON WILL NOW HAMMER OUT THE CURVE ON EACH SPOON WITH A METAL MALLET. ONE WILL STABILIZE THE SPOON WHILE THE OTHER WILL HAMMER. MAKE SURE YOU HAMMER THE SPOON UPON A METAL BLOCK OR VICE. I USED A TOW HITCH THAT MY FATHER IN LAW REMOVED FROM HIS TRUCK...WHATEVER GETS THE JOB DONE RIGHT???
