There’s nothing quite like a real vintage bread board. They hold so much character from use and the wear of time. You can find bread boards at antique shops, estate sales, auctions, and on Etsy. A larger sized bread board will most likely be $100 or more. There are also Etsy artisans who make “vintage style” bread boards.

how to make your bread board food safe


What a great idea! I bet I can find some old maple or oak boards around here that would work for that. What great gifts they would make!
Thank you so much for your detailed ideas. I would never have thought of FDA approved oil/stain! Great photos as well. I found the post very inspiring.
It's time to have Kevin start looking for a piece of maple! That's what our island top of made of–and, you guessed it–it isn't in one piece. I think either Kevin glued the pieces together or where he bought it. I love the look of yours–like you paid mega bucks because maybe Martha Washington used it!!

You will be using your bread board over and over – the perfect starting point for a lovely table!
