Add one teaspon dragonfly, one tablespoon practicality
Author: Kat Powers | May 5, 2008Shaded under trees, Old Schwamb Mill in Arlington displays a whole mill-full of museum quality Shaker furniture, both beautiful in form and precise in its use.
But what really caught my eye were these Pewter Dragonfly Measuring Spoons.
Know two things about me: I’m a sucker for dragonflies — I have a whole jewelry box full of them. I am also always running out of measuring spoons — either my kids have appropriated them for their toy cooking set or I’ve just used the last clean tablespoon for molasses and now I’ve got to find something dry for the baking soda.
They are beautiful decoration with a very precise function. For $61.25 you’ll find a tablespoon, full, half and quarter teaspoons right within reach right when you want them on their own decorated rack that is almost six-and-one-half inches wide. The pewter is lead-free and dishwasher safe. And if you’re are truly in love, the Shaker Workshops sell matching measuring cups, pewter hooks and even a coffee canister.
