Wooden spoon

Heather Chontos puts her colourful spin on a fleamarket find, dipping an old wooden spoon in tangerine paint to transform a low-tech stirring implement into something…fab. It’s from a selection of homewares chosen by Will Taylor for The Simple Things.

We’ve painted new wooden spoons this way but somehow hadn’t thought to do it with oldies-but-goodies.

Why not paint a whole rainbow of spoons in glossy, primary colors to double as a countertop bouquet when not in use?
