    In Wales, part of the UK we have a tradition of Love spoon making and giving to a loved one. Welsh Love Spoon made from Wood, handcarved by myself with a chain and two balls. The chain indicates a long and faith relationship and the balls enclosed but loose indicate children. There are many different designs, traditional an modern.

      I was very pleased to see the traditional ways are still here. You have made a fine job of your Love Spoons. May you have many happy years ahead of you to keep the old ways going.

      I have traced my ancestors to Wales all the way back to the 1500's. I plan to go there and explore, thank you for posting this:)

      You have my sincerest respect. I have done these carvings and I know how difficult it is. I screwed up a good many of them. Thanks for sharing yours.
