Ohio Cutting Boards

Ohio's northern edge follows the lake and its southern edge follows the river, so the outline has a soft top and bottom set against straight sides. These are made to order. Blanks are kept in stock, the Ohio design is applied after the order comes through, and nothing sits in a box waiting for a buyer.

The Ohio board is bamboo, seventeen by five and a quarter inches, cut long and narrow so it holds a wine bottle down one side and a wedge of cheese on the other. That shape is why it doubles as a charcuterie plank and a bar tray. Decorated on one face, working surface on the other.

If you came looking for an Ohio cutting board, this is the piece. It is the one in the collection that gets used weekly rather than brought out once a year.

Slate and Cork Coasters

Coaster sets are where most people start. Slate and cork each come four to a set, round or square, with the same Ohio artwork on both, so you are choosing a material rather than a different design.

Slate measures four inches across at a quarter inch thick, hand chiseled at the edge so no two pieces match, with four foam pads on the back. Cork is slimmer at 3/16 inch and weighs almost nothing, which is why it tends to end up on desks rather than bars.

The Ohio Designs

You will find the plain outline, the outline with the name in brush lettering, a script signature, OH initials, a word cloud, a floral fill, and HOME and HOME SWEET HOME using the state as the letter O. Run one design across the set or mix them.

One thing worth saying plainly: where a heart or a star sits inside the state shape, that placement is decorative. It does not mark a town.

Slate and Wood Ornaments

Ornaments come in both slate and wood, and the wood ones arrive with a twine hanger tied on. There are Merry Christmas From Ohio versions in both materials, which cover the card and the present together.

These are the pieces that come back out every December, which is most of why people buy them.

Ohio City Skylines

Plenty of people are homesick for a city rather than a state. Skylines in the collection include Columbus, Cleveland, Cincinnati and Toledo, each engraved on slate ornaments, wood ornaments and bamboo boards.

For someone who left a specific place, the skyline lands harder than an outline of Ohio ever will.

Tumblers, Wall Art and More

The Ohio artwork is not limited to coasters and ornaments. Tumblers and wall art are joining the collection, and full color UV printing opens up designs the laser cannot do on its own. If you want an Ohio piece in a format you do not see here yet, it is worth checking back.

Personalized Ohio Gifts

Custom text is being added across the range, so a name, a date, a street or a family line can go on alongside the Ohio design. That turns a coaster set into a wedding gift with the date on it, or an ornament into a record of the year someone moved.

Ohio Gifts by Occasion

A coaster set covers a housewarming or a closing gift without guessing at anyone's taste. The bamboo board suits a wedding, an anniversary or a host who actually cooks. Ornaments handle Christmas, a first apartment, a graduation move. A set of four is a fair thank-you for the neighbor who watched your dog.

For someone who moved away, their city is usually the safer bet. For someone still in the state, the outline designs read as pride rather than nostalgia.

How These Are Made

There are two ways a design gets onto a piece here. Laser engraving cuts into the surface, which on slate reads pale against dark stone and on bamboo burns a shade darker than the grain. UV printing puts down full color for artwork that depends on it.

Since each piece is made once the order is in, turnaround is one to three business days. Sets go out in a clear bag, not a retail box.
