Leather-Handled Cutting Boards

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Almost Makes Perfect Blog Shows How to Upgrade This Kitchen Item

Cutting boards as a kitchen item are quite boring most of the time, but this doesn't have to be the case as Molly from Almost Makes Perfect demonstrates. By using some handy woodworking tools and a leather strap, the cutting board could even be left out instead of stashed out of sight.

All users need is a smoothed piece of wood, soak the sucker in food safe mineral oil to avoid any types of bacteria being caught here while cooking, and saw off a section in the creative manner shown by Almost Makes Perfect. From here, users just need to attach the leather handle with a couple of brass screws, and pretty soon you have a fully functional cutting board that not only works, but looks good enough to leave out for guests to see!
