A beautiful, birch wood ‘Swedish style’ spreader- perfect for butter, jam or anything else you choose. Finished in a glorious yellow shade of milk paint, known as Lemon Drop from the Old Fashioned Milk Paint range. However you use it, it is sure to brighten up your day!

Hand made using traditional tools including axe, knife and drawknife. This spreader has been split from a fresh birch log, the shape drawn on, before being axed out and then finish carved by knife. Thus, the finished item shows the lovely smooth facets from these sharp tools and no sanding is used. The stunning handle colour is applied using food safe milk paint, and then the wood grain and milk paint is enhanced and sealed using organic food grade linseed oil. My elf hat makers logo is also burned into the handle. The log used for making the spreader, was locally sourced from an arborist.

Your item will be posted in environmentally friendly, recycled and plastic-free packaging which can be put into either composting or your paper recycling bin.

Caring for your spreader- Hand wash only with warm soapy water, rinse and leave to air dry. Avoid long soaks in water or cleaning in a dishwasher.
