Fun Week!




I did not get much done this week in the shop. I was out of town attending the Master, (well it was just the practice round on Tuesday). But it was just incredible to be there! These photos do not touch on how beautiful the course is. GOD is good, another one of his master pieces!

Aha Moment




I think I've got it! I have been trying to figure what to do with all my scrape wood from my cutting boards. I did not want to throw it away or just burn it for firewood. I knew there had to be something I could use it for! Aha moment.....Kitchen Utensils! I know my wife has enjoyed the ones I have made. You see she is left handed and every thing you buy in the stores is for right handed people. "She refers to as the other people"! She has been so excited to see the left hand pieces I made. She takes them to cook with! The problem is that I need them for my up coming show in May! Don't tell her, but I do not mind! She is very special to me, I would make them for her all day long!




The "Bonnie"
12 1/2" total length, the head measures 2 3/4" wide by 5" long.
Price: $15.00 each Right or Left Hand

We just got accepted!





I just got my invitation to this years to Arts in the Park healed in Byrd Park, Richmond, Virginia. I am excited to attend, this is nationally rated juried art show. There will be more than 450 artists from around the U.S.. This show is very dear to my heart, I have attended this show as a spectator for over 15 years and always wanted to be an exhibitor. I guess I had a "Bucket List" before the movie ever came out. I hope to have a few new items this year, so come on out and look for us at the show! We hope to see you May 2&3, 2009.

This is our show stopper!











Walnut end grain cutting board


This is a walnut end grain cutting board. An end grain cutting board is the best you can buy. This board will last you years and years of enjoyment without being scared up. The reason is the end grain of a board will seal back up when you cut on it. An end grain board will not dual your knifes as glass and plastic cutting boards will. I take two walnut and two cherry end grains boards to all my shows and they always sell out within the first few hours of the show! Come and visit my website and check out the sizes I offer. Free shipping for viewing my blog. Just let me know you visited my blog and I will ship your cutting board free.

I want to offer a big Thank You to my friend
Bizzie Lizzie for all her help in getting me started at my first blog. So I hope my site will improve as I improve on my blogging techniques!

Don't forget to check out her site for a Valentines gift! I have got mine ordered for my wife!

Hand Crafted Wooden Cutting Boards
I make all of our cutting boards by hand. And because I use only high-quality hard woods and proven construction techniques, your cutting board will last a very long time.
