Spoon Rings I did over the weekend

This was actually a pretty fun little project.  

Started off with a bunch of Silverware from my Mom and Dad

I split it back open rounded the edges and it works and looks pretty nice

That log idea tops it off I laughed it was such a twist to what I was expecting, awesome on both ideas!

And no, I didn’t miss your pun in there

But at this point I still needed one for my Mom

Bend and cut

The bending made dents in the metal so I filed it down then sanded then polished.

This turned out pretty neat

Here is all 3 of them (the little one was not fixed in this pic either)

My folks used to make those back in the hippie days. I bet my kids would find this fun. Thanks for sharing.

cool little project ……thanks for sharing

The log box is cool but honestly, with the red cloth in it “wearing” the ring, it looks like a severed finger that you get with a random note.
