Alabama Cutting Board-Ed Bladen

These intricate cutting boards are approximately 13.5"x8.5"x0.75"

I have been fortunate to work with wood my entire career. As a log home builder for the past 30 years I learned the intricacies of combining a primitive look with fine joinery. Now I have extended this look into my woodworking to create usable wood products which combine beauty and function. I use simple designs and soft edges to create pieces that accentuate the natural beauty of the wood grain and bring part of nature’s energy into the home.

The hardwoods I use the most are cherry, walnut, maple and poplar and are all indigenous to Indiana. Most all are fallen, salvaged, or reclaimed. Starting with the logs, wood is dried, milled, and hand crafted in my small workshop in southern Indiana.
