Style

• Because most dual cup and spoon racks are custom made, they can take on many styles. Individual spoon racks have slots that hold the spoons while individual cup racks often have hooks to hang the cups by their handles. A dual cup and spoon rack can have both rows of racks for the spoons and rows for hooks for the cups.
  
  

Location

• The most ideal location for hanging a dual cup and spoon rack is on a wall in your kitchen. Individual spoon and cup racks are common in kitchens, as they keep cups and spoons readily accessible to anyone who is preparing a meal or snack. If you frequently entertain guests at your home, having the dual cup and spoon rack in your dining room or another room in which you entertain is suitable.
  
  

Decorative

• For many people, having a cup rack or a spoon rack is more decorative than functional. People who enjoy collecting will often bring back souvenir spoons and cups from different cities or countries or collect them in honor of special occasions. Gift stores, for example, sell a variety of decorative cups and spoons related to birthdays, anniversaries and the birth of children.
  
  

Design

• If you plan to make the dual cup and spoon rack yourself or have a woodworker you know build the rack for you, ensure its design fits in with your home. If you decorate your home in a modern style, a square-edged dual cup and spoon rack stained in a dark charcoal color is ideal. If your home has a rustic feel, use a wood with lots of knots and stain the rack with a light stain to allow the wood's character to show through.
