For the spoon, I started with a piece of Mulberry.  Then split it with a hatchet and carve the handle with a pocket knife. I used a couple chisels and a pocket knife for the bowl part of the spoon, then sanded it with sandpaper.

I started with a very green maple branch, then whittled, gouged, and sanded. It's totally functional!
