Wooden Spoon and Fork

I found this old beat up giant wooden spoon and fork at a garage sale last year for $2. I knew then that I wanted them up on my kitchen wall... but they needed something more than just their current discolored beaten wooden look. So, I finally got around to digging out some black paint I had - about 4 years old might I add! (LOTS of stirring and shaking). I gave them a wipe down and started painting. When dried, I thought they looked great but maybe a little too "polished" for my country kitchen full of barn wood pieces and chicken paraphernalia so I distressed them a bit with a fine-grit sandpaper.

Now, I think they're PERFECT for my wall!
