Handcrafted Gifts


Have you used a spurtle or a muddler? The spurtle is used to stir sauces, soups, stews, and oatmeal. The muddler is used to mash herbs and spices in a glass or bowl to release their flavor. I love these handcrafted ones over at Jane's new online shop, Coterie. One or both would make a perfect Mother's Day gift, or a 'just because' gift. While you are visiting Jane's shop, check out the rest of her wonderful selection of handcrafted items.

    What wonderful kitchen trinkets. I have the muddler but not the spurtle. I hope you have a great day. Blessings...Mary

    Those are beautiful. I've never even heard of a spurtle, let alone used one!

    I have a few muddlers already but never heard of a spurtle. That is novel. These look lovely.

    Those are so lovely! They seem like something you'd find in a tiny cottage in Northern Europe.
