Worn spatulas are stained yellow or partially burned away. Why see them in a snazzy new or remodeled kitchen? You can always hide ugly spatulas in kitchen drawers, but Le Creuset has come up with colorful, virtually non-destructible spatulas you'll be proud to display on the kitchen counter.

Constructed from medical-grade silicon, they will not burn or melt, the colors will never fade, and they will not absorb odors or flavors. Available in red, blue, green, saffron and white, the spatulas come in two versions, small and midsize, and the Spoon Spatula, perfect for stirring a stew. Suggested retail is $5.99, $6.99 and $6.99 respectively.If you cannot locate the new line of Le Creuset colored spatulas in stores yet, call Sur La Table at 1-800-243-0852 to order.
