SPOONFUL
of love
Many of my cooking utensils and vessels are handmade. This is all thanks to my living in Gatlinburg–the largest group of independent craft artisans in North America. It is a privilege to be able to use hand carved spoons and beautifully thrown bowls in the preparation of my family’s meals. These treasures are beautiful & special, and I am so grateful to have them. This next Call is being juried by the director of one of the country’s foremost schools for craft education, Penland. Investigate very carefully…
