Cutting Board Design gets a Name


Introducing the "Preston" Cutting Board, our first special order. We have decided to name it after the designer, since it will be offered as a standard available option. Shown here sanded up and ready for finish.  16" x 22" x 1 1/8", radius corners and drip edge all around, but only on one side.  It's reversible!
Walnut is the wood choice and the Butcher Block Conditioner not only seals and protects the board, it also brings out the character in the wood grain. So pretty!
Do you agree? We love it and hope to sell many more (and keep one for us of course)!
We have since sold another, based on this design.  Red Birch is the wood choice, which has a slightly less material cost than Walnut, per board foot.
Beautiful! 
All the cutting boards we offer are hand made by the husband...no buyins.
In need of a cutting board for yourself or a gift?  You know who to call...

Thank you for stopping by, comments welcome!

Beyond The Unicorn

Craft Fair # 2, here we come!  Someone (my husband) thought it would be a good idea to see if there were any tables left for the Beyond The Unicorn Craft Fair 12/7/13.  Did you know he is a Springfield Alumni?  He is, that's another story, back to the craft fair.

We didn't expect to get in for this year, we were thinking maybe next year. Guess what?  There had just been a cancellation and the planner was trying to find a replacement that wasn't offering jewelry or felt wool.....so we are IN. 

Only 2 weeks to get ready...are we nervous....YES.  But away we go, cutting boards all over the place.
Mahogany End Grain and Maple Mahogany End Grain Combo will be making their debut!!

Cheers!

Blue Stone

Buddy...the mason.  Who knew?
Cement board goes down first.
Mischief...in the way :)
1st piece, let's go.






Hardwood flooring is next. Country grade red birch, we think.
