Last month we were lucky enough to be invited to two weddings, these were great fun and it seems an age since the last wedding we attended.
I'm never sure on what gift to get anyone for weddings, both were established couples, so not starting a home. So I decided I'd make some chopping boards and carve their name and date of the wedding on each, I also made a plain one for each couple as well so it was more of a set and one could have more everyday use.
Carving letters like this is a nice way to personalise something, and this piece of oak had been in the shed for over 10 years I think, so about time it got used up.
Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteLovely Kev, something substantial about a proper wooden cutting board. It lasts a lifetime. I think that is a lovely gift xx
ReplyDeleteThanks! I've never got enough board in the house so should make some more for here really!
DeleteThey are very nice and useful . Over here in Ireland you are expected to donate at least 150 Euros for the meal per person. It's the done thing. What ever happened to a toast rack?
ReplyDeleteI suppose at least then you know what's expected of you, it can be hard to judge otherwise.
DeleteThank you! They were nice to carve.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous and personalized wedding gift! Well done!
