My cousin gave me 5 silver plated teaspoons,
AND, 4 of these teapot ceramic spoon ornaments.
Both received an upcycle and/or repurpose as Christmas tree ornaments.

This wasn't the first time that I used spoons as Christmas ornaments.
Way back in 2013, I repurposed teaspoons as Christmas Tree Ornaments HERE.
I always thought about purchasing metal stamping tools, and adding fun words/phrases to silver plated silverware.
My new spoon ornament project had the look of stamped silverware, but I used Tim Holtz Christmas Remnant Rubs.
The remnant rubs contain two sheets of transfers, one in white and one in black.

To add a remnant rub to the spoon, I cut around the word/image that I wanted to to apply, removed the paper backing, and very carefully centered the image on the spoon bottom. They stick down pretty quickly, and you may not get a second chance to center it!
I used the enclosed wooden stick to rub the image onto the spoon. I then removed the plastic top layer. I rubbed a word transfer on at the top of the spoon as well.
Holes were drilled at the top of the spoon and at the bottom point of the spoon. A 10MM Jump Ring was added to the bottom, along with a metal jingle bell.

I threaded a thin white ribbon through the top hole, and knotted the top ends to hang the spoon on the tree.
Here is finished spoon ornament one with "Special Delivery Santa" and "Magic".
Spoon two says "Merry Christmas" and "Noel".
Here is spoon three with "Dear Santa hohoho" and "Merry".
Spoon four has "Peace on Earth" and "Wish".
Spoon five has a "Christmas Delivery graphic" and "Believe".
The teapot spoons were also adorned with jump rings and bells, and Tim Holtz Remnant Rubs.
The teapot spoons also hang on a thin white ribbon.
The "Let It Snow" teapot spoon has a snowflake shank button threaded on the white ribbon hanger.
Pin for Later!
Easy ornaments, and a little more fun with some easy additions!
