ONE: Paint about 1/3 of your spoons gold, another third white, and the final third black. Also paint the tree form in one of the three colors. I chose the black since it covered the easiest.

TWO: Glue a ring of spoons all the way around the tree form in one of the three colors.

THREE: ...Then a second ring in an another color, overlapping with the first ring by about half, and staggered just a bit as shown.

FIVE: And so on until the whole form is covered. Top it off with a little twine bow or some such embellishment of your choosing.
Those are some classy ice cream spoons, no?
