Square is the New Small

Over this past year, the feedback we’ve received has been very helpful – thank you to everyone to has helped Creative Woodworking grow and learn. The handmade cutting boards – cheese boards, the designs, the wood species, the sizes and the shapes.

Mahogany – Maple Small Wooden Cutting Board

One thing we realized is that our small board, 7″ x 10″ x 1″ is a bit small. The new small will be square – 10 1/4″ x 10 1/4″ x 1″ – initial thoughts and comments have been favorable.

Above is the orginial small size and below is the “new small” – try not to be distracted by the wood tone – isn’t crazy how much prettier cherry becomes as it ages? Same knife, what do you think?

Do you think we’ve made the right decision?

This past year has been crazy – crazy good actually. Learning so much as our little side project grows. Thank you to our friends, new and old, your support and encouragement means so much. Each client, new and repeat, all who have one (or more) of our wooden cutting boards and perhaps a serving tray – you all ROCK.
