How I made a spoon
For the past two weeks I have been working with a silversmith. His name is Howard Fenn and he has been perfecting his silver skills for fourty years. And yes, hes amazing.

This is part of his 400 hammer collection
Because im a greedy bitch I decided to design and make a pair of silver spoons to eat ice cream with as apposed to using my fists.
You start of with a piece of silver about wee big..
I then hammered. Hammered more. And a hammered even more so the silver grew like a sprouting child. It eventually got cut in two and a spoonish form was starting to take.
