Hello lovely friends. I went shopping again and spent quite a bit of time on Etsy. And this is always a good thing.
Searching through stores of handmade crafts on Etsy is something I can spend hours doing. Ultimately I get click happy and start adding to my cart every time I see something beautifully hand made. And if it has anything to do with vintage linens, paper or food styling props, it is super click happy-time.
I was so super stoked to find these handmade individual bread boards by Diana at Our Vintage Home Love! All the bread boards made by Diana are custom and each are unique with their own special characters based on the wood, stain and shape.
What made me fall more in love with these boards is Diana’s story. Please read her bread board story. I cried a few times. Tissues please.
Handmade and homemade items made with love are so dear to me. Each piece weaves in a special story, a bit of the past and when I can hold it in my hands, I feel so much more inspired to love, share and give back.
So I went extra click happy and purchased a set of these boards to give away!
They are so beautifully hand crafted and are the perfect size for food photography and styling too. I just adore the different shapes of the boards and especially the lovely handles.
Diana also sells a larger selection of boards on her Etsy Store.
Good lucky everyone!
hugs and love,
diane

I read the story. Very sweet about her Dad and the go-get-em spirit.
So many things I would do with these! I would use them in photographs, hang them in my kitchen as decoration, and use them at parties to serve things on. SO PRETTY!
The boards are so beautiful. We don’t have any wooden boards so I would use them and mark them up and watch their individual character come out. Thanks for the chance!
If I won these beauties I think I’d be inspired to host a wine and cheese party just to show them off 🙂
Beautiful bread boards. I love to put cheese and crackers out on beautiful flat surfaces and these would be great. I love how rustic they look
These are absolutely beautiful, and I too read her story and got up to get a tissue. It gave me the strong urge to go up and do something, make something, live out a dream. I have a feeling that I’d end up putting one on the counter, and using it in any way possible.
I would give them to my boyfriend. He makes amazing bread, and I bought him a Shun knife already for Christmas, so this would be the perfect addition to his present.
Wow … what a very heart filled story that makes such a peace even more beautiful knowing the history behind it. After having a big argument with my Father several months back, which now reading that story seems so petty, this has made me want to rekindle our relationship. Thank you so much!
Thank you for doing this! Would love to have a real wooden bread board. As of now, my wooden board is used for daily and one can only capture so much with a single board until you can bored or the picture looks dull. Certainly will use it for styling, with friends over bread, good wine and cheese, and hang it up to give the kitchen a rustic look (when not used).
Lovely boards. I would use them to photograph food on, and of course as they were intended, to cut things on!
Really nice memory for her father. It is a shame he couldn’t see the boards she made.
I would give one to my fiance and keep the other for myself. She is not a fan of the gooey pungent cheeses that I like. This way we can keep our cheeses apart but enjoy them together. Haha!
These bread boards are so beautiful!!!!! and the bread board story…so tender!!!!! so, good lucky everyone, I would like one of these, but I’m too far away, so I can’t get one!!!!!!great post!!!!!!awesome bread boards!!!!!
These are beautiful! I would serve delicious bread for dipping!
beautiful honor to Diana’s dad
I would use them as a sandwich board instead of plates for my husband and me
I would save them to use for the best cheese plate ever! 🙂
