Spoons are very important in my work. Such a simple implement is the perfect tool to mix my pigments, powders and potions. The resulting caked on mess is a record of all the colours and textures I'm working with and I use the residue to match shades as samples of batches and weird objects in their own right. Then when I need a clean one I can smash off the hardened pigments revealing the shiny(ish) metal spoon underneath. I get a lot of use out of my spoons...
