I like giving new life to ordinary items we all use, especially spoons. The aged patina of the metals is even more lovely with added depth after it went through a fire. Several items were scavenged from a different fire including two spoons, the tea kettle lid, and the metal top of a burned Earth, Wind, and Fire music box. Other items are a carved bone knob, coins, metal covered wooden heart, Bodhi leaves, clay lotus charm, antique ribbon and an ancient spoon that holds much mystery to me.
