The Cutlery Commission

Hey Sugar, you create quite a stir!

On the hunt for a unique gift and struggling for inspiration, I found myself at my favourite car boot sale knee deep in boxes of chipped china. This is where I found it...’it’ being a rather sad looking silver spoon, which unbeknown to me was soon to become the inspiration for what is now The Cutlery Commission! Using my old steel letters (tired remnants from my silversmithing days) and a hammer, I stamped the words ‘HEY SUGAR’ onto the spoon and there and then...fell a little bit in love. It’s been a cutlery love affair ever since.

Soon after the ‘HEY SUGAR’ epiphany, and with my creative passion reignited, I started sourcing cutlery to stamp and give as special gifts to friends and family. Amazingly word spread and within months I went from a part time crafter to the High Commissioner of The Cutlery Commission - Katie Dobson.
