Hi Auggy,
I agree with Steve in that AGrooves as well as Hexagon are good ways
to achieve what you are looking for. With that said, actual 3D
modeling of details always gives the most depth and flexibility to
details. In Hexagon, one of the faster ways of doing this is draw
your profiles of your details (curves, etc.) Then use the *Thickness
tool* to give them 3D dimension and proceed with tweaking with the
Extrude, Scale, tweak, etc. tools from there. You can then, depending
on how you want to 'finish it', lay them on top of the spoon handle or
you can merge them with booleaning to add chamfering and certain types
of smoothing, etc.
Well, hope that helps some.
Cheers.
