Cool like ice cream spoons!

Finding new uses for old things is one of my favorite things to do, especially when it keeps throwaway items out of landfills. So, when I spotted adorable little taste testing spoons at Ice Berry in downtown West Palm Beach over the weekend, I had to rescue them and make a necklace!

Step 1 - Ask ice cream shop owner for his used tester spoons along with your fresh kiwi - chocolate sprinkled froyo while trying to appear as if this is a completely normal, rational request...

Step 2 - Use a thin drill bit to make holes in the top and bottom of the spoons


Step 4 - Bust out your beads, pliers, arts and craft supplies and get to work!

Step 5 - Show off your sweet new summer necklace!

Very sweet! (Pun intended) You left out the 'wash spoons' step ;). Sell them on Etsy! PS: I want one. :)
