As strange as it may sound, a $3.99 pack of wooden spoons spoke to me. How? They said, “Paint me and make me pretty!” LOL… of course I am partially kidding…but in all seriousness, that was my immediate thought when I saw them hanging on a hook at TJ Maxx! I thought, PRETTY FLORALS in PRETTY COLORS! And well, that’s what I did!
I found the pack of 6 for $3.99 at TJ Maxx! I like that they are all different and not just “spoons”!
I wish I had a “detailed” tutorial, but there is just no way to do that for me…because I don’t know how to “teach” my way of painting. I just do it…and there is no rhyme or reason! haha. BUT, I do want this to bring inspiration to you! Maybe you will never look at wooden spoons the same way again 🙂
So, in a nutshell, I painted each spoon a different color, and then I painted very whimsy, floral designs on each one!
The colors I used were as follows (all Apple Barrel brand):
Laguna
Key West
King’s Gold
White
Marsh Green
Admiral Blue
Fruit Punch
Once dry, I stuck them all in a super cute vase in my kitchen! They added the PERFECT whimsy, fun pop of color! I am obsessed with how they turned out!
I hope you love them, and that they somehow inspire you to do something fun and unexpected!
Well, tell me what ya think! Aren’t they FUN!!!!???

I love the wooden spoons! Think I will try that!
For those not as talented, I love them even without the floral designs. Super spring project!!
Wow!!! Those look amazing!!!
Super cute! I think I’m going to attempt this one!
Omgoodness…adorable ❤️ Love them so much ???? Happy Easter gorgeous lady!! Thank you for being you and sharing your talent ????
Very cute! Great idea to match your decor, too!!!
They are adorable. If you can’t paint, it would be cute with napkins or decoupage.
These are so so so cute! I will give it a try to brighten up my kitchen.
These spoons are so cute!! I can’t wait to get some and try this myself!! Thanks for the inspiration.
These wooden spoons/utensils are super cute! You always have the best ideas for all of your DIY’s! I also love your spirituality and your lovely family. May you have a blessed Easter!
I love this. It’s such a cute idea and they turned out beautiful.
You have such an artistic eye, Brooke!! Your talents never cease to amaze me!! Super adorable!!
Love how you painted on the wooden spoons! So colorful and whimsical!
super cute!
i do want to mKe some.
am i assuming right that they are just for show and cant be used?
Love these….but I would not be able to paint such beautiful flowers or designs on them! I may look into a decoupage technique to see if I can make these too. They would be a lovely gift even for a friend. Love your eye for past the initial glance.
These are beautiful and would definitely make a great gift! ❤️❤️
My mom, God rest her sweet soul, would have loved these. So beautiful
❤️❤️❤️
Love the spoons, clever idea!
