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 just Tweeted this using your “handy dandy” button above I don’t know how to ‘link it’ but I am
@flyingjewel-Roberta Perez and finally….. I follow you! But I have been following you guys long
before ‘The Bread Boards Giveaway’!! (Just don’t jump off a cliff or anything cuz’ I’m right behind you guys!!)
What!?! Two boards!! I read too fast!! I would use one and display one or keep one and” play it forward” and make a friend very happy for Christmas!!
Forget about breaking bread!! I’d use this beautiful board to cut it on but very carefully!! And I would
use it to present yummy cheeses & fruits! And I would display it and enjoy it!! Always remembering
the background story……. of the Bread Board.
Diane’s story about her father being the inspiration for her work really strikes a chord. He would be so proud of what beautiful work she is doing now.
I have been on the look out for boards for serving breads a and cheeses, that have both a rustic quality but are not overly pricey.
Went to Diana’s webpage and love that she mentioned Bellingham. That’s where I live and thrive! Yup, I share the northwest with her. Love it. Going to use her idea for lighted branches, too.
I do believe I would give one of the boards to my sister who taught me how to be a foodie. The other I would use for two things; one – I have the perfect, open space to hang it on my kitchen wall. Second, I’d use it as it was intended – as a coveted cutting board for everyday use.
I would use it to serve a cheeseball and crackers
I would use them to display and serve all kinds of food for my family and when I host parties. They are perfect!
I would keep one and pass one on to my sister.
My husband and I were recently at a restaurant that served the yummiest cheese and meats on a board very much like these. It inspired us to invite guests over after the holidays and treat them to the same lovely display of foods. Would love to have one to use for this occasion!
I would put grapes, apples and cheese on the beautiful board.
I think I might try my hand at some homemade crackers with lots of cheeses.
Read the story! What a sweet remembrance of her dad!
Love them! I would use them as cheese trays!
My friend C. just learned how to make cheese this year & it’s delicious! For Xmas I purchased a cheese recipe book for her. I’d give her the bread boards so she could serve us cheese & bread at her next cheese party.
