Handcrafted Wooden Spoons


Some Very Kind Comments
From Some Very Nice People.

Hi Bill,
I received my spatulas the other day. What a beautiful job you did! They are the perfect replication of the pattern I sent, and now all my kids (and a few others!) can have our 'favorite' wooden tool! Thanks so much for your willingness to indulge me in copying our pattern. They will be a welcome addition to the graduation and wedding gifts I will be giving out soon!
Thanks again!

Hello again Mr. Edwards,
I just stopped by your site "just to see what's new." But I couldn't resist buying two new spoons for my very large collection. I would also like to tell you how much I enjoy your spreaders. They are perfect for my 4-year-old granddaughter to use as a knife without fear of cutting herself. Thanks again for your lovely craftsmanship.

Well, you have certainly out-done yourself on the walnut spoon that I just received. You said that it was one of a kind and I certainly can believe it. It's almost too lovely to use. I'm tempted to just hang it on the wall for all to see!! I have several of your pieces now but I know I will be back for more. Looking at your site is like taking a child to the toy store -- I want everything I see! But seriously, it took me a while to start using your utensils - I wasn't used to using wood - but once I did, I got hooked. Now I reach for them all the time.
Have a very Merry Christmas.

Bev,
Arizona

Hello again!
I went to your site to replace my lovely walnut spreader that someone (I think it was my dear husband) tried to use as a screwdriver and broke off the tip. Anyway, I ordered the spreader but could not resist ordering two of your lovely spoons to add to my ever-growing collection. Pretty soon I will need a bigger utensil crock! Thank you for your continued excellent products.

Greetings Bill,
I received a walnut spoon and ladle from my brother, (Robert from P.A.) for christmas. When I opened the box, I couldn't believe how beautiful they were. I was like a little girl with a new toy, a couldn't wait to use them! I think my soups and stews taste better. Thank you for making such a fine quality product. Hey, my birthday is fast approaching, I think I will throw a few hints to brother Bob. LOL

Sincerely,
Kim,
Pennsylvania


I'm back!! The two spoon sets arrived today, they are just beautiful and since these two are Christmas gifts, now it's my turn. I have my eye on the deep red cherry set and wondered if you have a 12 inch mixer dark enough to match up with the set? The workmanship on the sets I received is absolutely awesome, you are one talented individual. Thanks so much for the quick shipping and gift boxes, I'm just thrilled with these and will be proud to give them as gifts...but my greedy side is surfacing, and I want a set too! Thanks so much...

Hello,
I received my beautiful hickory spoon today. It is even better looking in person! Thank you so much for the spreader and small spoon. I was delighted with my surprise gifts. My collection is really growing. Everytime I log on, your site is my first stop! Keep up the excellant work. Thanks again,

Rebecca,

Dear Linda,
The spoons arrived yesterday and they are so very beautiful! I had to send you a note to tell you how very, very pleased I am with the purchase. Thank you for the spatula that you enclosed. I will certainly be back to your website in the near future to use your creations for gifts for friends and family. Keep up the good work.

Most Sincerely,
MaryAnn,
Pennsylvania


Hi Bill, just wanted to thank you again for the great spoons the color is just perfect. I finially used one of them the spatula worked just great, cleaned up so nice and I did what you said for the fuzzing on the wood and it just as you said. Hubby loves the big maple dipper. My brother in law was really impressed with your spoons he is a wood person himself makes all kinds of things out of wood. I am so glad I found your website. Oh thanks for the extra items there great. Thank you so much.

Hi Bill,
I just received my spoons today and I cannot stop staring at them! They are so beautiful. I absolutely love the deep walnut that I chose for myself! And I believe my mother-in-law is going to love the cherry spoon and spreader as her Christmas present! I will absolutely be back to expand my kitchen "wardrobe". Thank you, thank you, thank you for such quality craftsmanship. You are very talented indeed! Have a wonderful holiday!

Diane,

Dear Mr.& Mrs. Edwards,
I just received the walnut utensils I ordered for my Mother for Christmas. I just wanted to let you know how wonderful a product you have. In a age of mass produced junk It is more than refreshing to hold a piece of art. I can insure you your spoons will be put to the test in her kitchen starting with Christmas dinner.

Best to you and yours
Rob,
North Carolina


Dear Bill and Linda:
Thank you for all the extra utensils you sent in my last order. I was blown away! The spoons and utensils you make are beautifully crafted! I can’t imagine why anyone would buy an ordinary wooden spoon at a kitchen shop when they can have a beautifully crafted spoon made of a beautiful wood. I’ll keep watching your website for more pieces that catch my eye.

Best regards,
Susan,
Maryland


(Another kind comment from Susan)
Dear Bill and Linda,
I am so pleased with the spoons I received this week, and I have just placed another order for 2 more. The workmanship is amazing, the woods are just beautiful, and I am truly honored to own some of your work. I will be watching for more ‘one of a kind’ items that catch my eye. And thanks for the free spreader!

Best regards,
Susan,
Maryland


Hello Bill ~
I just wanted to let you know that my spoons arrived today. That was FAST! Since this is the third time I have ordered from you, obviously I just love your handcrafted wooden utensils! They are all just so BEAUTIFUL I have a crock on my kitchen counter that they are all sitting in. I didn't have enough to make it look good before (even tho I had ordered quite a few between my first two orders), and now with the newest additions, it looks much better. I think I still have room for a few more in the near future, ha ha! Your handcrafted wooden utensils are truly a work of art! Each piece is perfection! You must really love what you do as it shows! Thank you so much again! I am just so glad I came upon your site a few months ago!
Enjoy the rest of your weekend,

Cindi,
Minnesota


(Another order from Cindi)
Hello Bill ~
I wanted to let you know that my order arrived today. Gosh, I am just in awe at how beautiful your handcrafted wooden spoons are! They are almost too nice to use, ha ha! (But I will.) The workmanship and quality is absolutely amazing and unlike anything I have ever seen anywhere before. You are extremely talented. I am so glad I found your website. Every time I look at them, I am just speechless! I really like the Cherry color. Thank you for the extra spreader too, as well as info on how to take care of them. I am thinking now I want to get a few more pieces, ha ha. Your handcrafted spoon are truly one of a kind! Thank you so much, it's been a pleasure,

Cindi,

Mr.. Edwards The birch spoon, mixer, and spatula, all got a workout over the holidays. Love that mixer. My wife even let me display them in a container on the kitchen counter! Congratulations, that is no small feat.

Sincerely,
Joel,
California


Hello Bill,
Just a note to let you know that I received the ladle about two weeks ago, along with your surprise gift that was almost thrown away because I didn't see it in the packaging. My husband found it when he was tying up our recyclables and saved it from that fate. It's a lovely spreader and I use it for anything that has to come out of a tall jar. It's excellent, as is the ladle. Beautiful workmanship. I showed the ladle to my sister and she looked at it with longing. Sorry for her for now, but I intend on getting one from you as a gift for her. Thank you very much. You'll be hearing from me soon.

Yours truly,
Lynne,
New Jersey


Hi,
I ordered two sets of your beautiful wooden spoons as gifts. They are works of art and I just want to hold them. I can't bear to give them away so I ordered two more sets and some singles. I don't know if I have the heart to plunge them into a pot of chile but I know if I love them that much they will make great thank-you gifts for some hard-working staff members. Unique, beautiful, works of art to say "thank-you" to some great people.

Charyl,
Wisconsin


Hello,

I just wanted to tell you how much I'm enjoying my new wooden spoon set. I really like everything about them. I searched on Google to find kitchen utensils that were made in the USA and not in China like all the ones I saw in the stores. That's how I found you. And I just now ordered a set as a wedding gift for a friend. Thanks so much for your good work!

Sue,

Hi!
I just received my Dipper & Ladle today. They are beautiful beyond words. I will treasure these a lifetime. I have never seen any spoons like yours. You are a marvel!! I will be making another order asap.

Thanks again,
Rebecca,
Texas


Hi Bill
I just received my order yesterday. I can't begin to tell you how impressed I am with these wooden utensils. They are awesome! And to know that they are made by someone in the United States and on a small scale (not a huge company) makes them even more fantastic! These will be a Christmas gift to my daughter's boyfriend who really loves to cook. Thank you so much for getting them to me so quickly. It was especially nice that you included the care info. There was an extra spreader in with the order. Was this to be included or should I send it back?
(NOTE: I send everyone a free spreader with every order.)

Thanks again,
Sharon,
Massachusetts


Good morning Mr. Edwards,
The spoons are gorgeous but the maple one outshines all the rest! Thank you again for bringing it to my attention that the one I ordered wasn't the one that I wanted and for recommending the right one. It is just "perfect".
When I was looking for wooden spoons and was googling, I picked you because you were the only one that I could find that didn't put those "nasty" little holes in the handles and what a great decision.
It was a pleasure doing business with you and I know that we'll enjoy the spoons for years to come.

Thanks again,
Nell,
North Carolina


Thank you so very much!!!
The ladle actually arrived on her birthday and she loved it!! The workmanship was gorgeous and she was so excited!!!

All my best,
Jessica,
California


Got your package today. Wow, I'm really impressed! The quality of the product exceeds my expectations. Thank you very much. My family will enjoy these for a lifetime!.......I have never seen products like this especially in Black Walnut. We are proud to own this fantastic set.

Warm Regards,
Bruce and Susan,
New Jersey


Bill the Spoon man…..
I just received my spoons…. Well.. I think you could call them a Work of art. They are ALL Beautiful…… I can not wait to use them. I picked out the Hickory set for my mom… It will be hard to give them But I think it will be a wonderful Christmas. I think I will be back soon to order more.

Christine,
Oregon


Hi Bill.
I just got my order today and I have been admiring the spoons since I opened the package. I laid them out on my table and just stared at them like some little girl in a toy store. I would have to agree with some of your other customers, they are almost too nice to use, almost, but with a family of 5, and being Italian, I must. You are truly gifted with your craft and I am proud to have these spoons that you have made in my home. I'm sure I'll be back again and I'll be sure to pass your name along to whomever asks.

Sincerely,
Angela,
Massachusetts


(Here's another comment by Angela after many orders)
Hi Bill.
You may think I am crazy by now for all these orders. I do plan to give some away is all. Also, I'd like to make sure that my children will be able to have some too when they are off on their own. Thanks again for everything.

Sincerely,
Angela,
Massachusetts


I got my order today, and it was perfect! I love the color of the cherry wood and the design, makes me always want to be in the kitchen cooking, anything that does that gets 5 stars! I will positively have to buy more and give as gifts!
Thanks for a wonderful product I will be back!

Candice,
Washington


Bill,
I received my order of three spoons today and wanted to tell you how WONDERFUL they are! Like a work of art! They are SO smooth and BEAUTIFUL, it's almost a shame to use them! I'm hooked -- I'll be back for more! No more supermarket wooden spoons for me!
Thanks again!

Pam,
Colorado


I received my order today and I am just thrilled about all my choices. The special request hand made spoons are perfect. I have never seen anything like them; just read about them. My special measurement request for them is exactly just like I wanted and just exactly as I read elsewhere concerning wooden spoons made nonskimpy. The bowl depth, width and length is absolutely great. The dipper, ladle, spatula are also excellent, all such beautiful craftsmanship. I want to also thank you so very much for my "surprise" spreader. I never expected such a nice gift. Perfect for spreading icings on cakes, brownies etc. I really appreciate you and your assistance helping me with this order. Thank you for everything.

Helen,
Florida


Hi Bill,
I got my spoons today and they are beautiful! I look at the ladle and I think that one is going to be my favorite. Then I look at the big spoon and the underside of it and I think THAT ONE is going to be my favorite!! I'll love them both and plan on breaking them in this weekend.
Thanks ever so much (and my daughter loves her spoons from you as well)!

Sincerely,
Linda,
California


(Another order from Linda)

Just a note to let you know that my daughter got the spoons on Saturday, her birthday, and she is absolutely thrilled with them. Her words were " They are very beautiful, too beautiful to use almost-----but I will!"
Thanks again for everything,

Sincerely,
Linda,
California


Bill,
Thanks so much for the spoon and the boxes. I was very impressed with the quality of the workmanship. It will make a great addition to my wife's collection. I'm sure she's going to love it. Thanks for the quick shipment, too. Merry Christmas!

Tom,
Michigan


Good Afternoon,
I wanted to let you know that I received the wooden spoon I ordered from you I want to say how beautiful this spoon is and so happy I found your website on my google search. I have wooden spoons that belonged to my grandmother and now these spoons will be passed onto my children and their children. Thank you for making such "beautiful" items. I will be sure to pass your website onto my friends.

Laura,
Massachusetts


Hi Bill,
I placed my order for spoons a few days ago and to my surprise they arrived today...so fast. I just wanted to tell you they are the most beautiful wooden spoons I've ever seen and I love the deep bowls. I have used wooden spoons for years but they all have shallow bowls and can only be used for stirring not for serving. As you can tell I am so excited about my new spoons. I will keep them in mind for birthday and christmas gifts in the future.
Thank you for including the spreader with my order. I will use it tomorrow when I bake cookies.

Sincerely,
Cheri,
California


(And another order from Cheri.)

Hi Bill,
I just received my second order of spoons yesterday...again they arrived very fast. I now have eight spoons from you and I love them all, especially the walnut ones. I will continue to check your site for your new additions. Your site will be one of my favorites during the holiday season. Thanks again for the spreader.

Cheri,
California


Dear Bill,
They look beautiful! Two smaller spoons is fine. With just 2 people to cook for most of the time, smaller pans are frequently used, so the smaller spoons will come in handy. Thank you, thank you, so much. I love giving your spoons as gifts. Our friends consider them works of art!

Sincerely,
Karen,
Washington


Dear Bill:
We have never used kitchen tools that worked so effortlessly! We love them! Have a great day!

Pat and Da,
Washington


Bill,
WOW - you do such nice work - and quickly! Thanks so much. I will order the 5 you have ready now from your website so we can get the ball rolling. I may order more shortly because I do like the hickory with the dark in it also.
Again, thanks for being so easy to work with and creating such lovely pieces.

Rita,
California


Hi Bill,
These tools are beautiful....I will take good care of them. Thanks for the bonus speader....that is so kind of you.
Enjoy springtime!

Patty,

Bill,
The dipper is a work of art. How DO you do it?

Dottie,

(And another....)

Bill,
I got my spoon today. It is absolutely beautiful. Cannot wait to use it. Matches the fork perfectly. (NOTE: referring to a extra long fork she had special ordered a couple of weeks earlier.) A VERY nice looking set, hint hint. Thanks again.........

Dottie,
North Carolina


(And another....)
Bill,
I love my spoons that you made for me. The flat ended spoon is awesome, I like it the best! You should rename it to the "gets every corner of the pot" spoon!

Dottie,
North Carolina


Hey Bill!
You're amazing! Thank you! The package arrived today. So fast! The wood is sooooooo very smooth and wonderful. The feel of your craftsmanship in my hand is far superior to anything I've seen elsewhere, including the so-called "gourmet kitchen shops". Attention to detail from start to finish is quite evident. I know where I'm going to turn when I need to replace the rest of my wooden kitchen tools.

Ray,
Louisiana


And another order....
Bill,
I am so impressed with your work and love the set we got from you. I am ordering another set for a housewarming gift for my neighbors.

Charlie,
Missouri


Bill,
The spoons arrived today! I love them!!! I caressed them all the way home. I have been talking about them all afternoon! Next I'm ordering a spatula. Thank you again...they are truly FABULOUS!

Karen,
Washington


Bill,
I just love my wooden spoons and I use them all the time.
