Finish: All natural, Vegan rated, Food-safe Chopping Board oil
Aftercare: Product maintenance is very important. We recommend you continue to treat your product with our all natural food safe chopping board oil. Regular treatment will protect the timber and stop it from drying out. This will also help to prevent staining, discolouration, cracking and warping. Our chopping board oil can be purchased on our website or over the phone.
About Timber: Natural timber will always want to move. It’s going to expand and shrink as the temperature and humidity change in your home and outside, rest assured it won’t change drastically. Small hairline splits may occur as your product ages, this is completely normal and is regarded as part of the timber’s natural beauty. As the seasons change you may see some movement in your product, again this is completely normal.
Never put your chopping board in a Dishwasher. Do not leave on a hot or damp surface or in direct sunlight. Never leave anything moist on your board like cheese for long periods of time. Do not store your product outside, in a garden shed or in a garage.
If you need any help or advice on how to maintain your product please contact us or consult your care guide.

The finest personalised wooden chopping boards on the market
MakeMeSomethingSpecial’s personalised wooden chopping boards are the most hard-wearing and long-lasting chopping boards on the market. Our boards are unlike any other mass produced or handmade boards available. Our personalised chopping boards are carefully constructed using the most beautiful and highly prized timber on the planet. We use the finest superior grade English oak, sourced less than 20 miles from our Hampshire workshop or you can choose our Amish grown American Black Walnut from the Northern Appalachian region of New England.
A little history… MakeMeSomethingSpecial began solely as a manufacturer of wooden chopping boards back in 2009, before we created the personalised wooden gifts range. We are proud to be the number 1 manufacturer of high quality personalised wooden chopping boards today, dedicated to crafting only the very best boards money can buy. This means a lot of time, care and attention to detail goes into every single one of the chopping boards we create.

Need help Choosing your timber?
Every single personalised wooden cutting board we produce are all handcrafted in our Hampshire workshop in the UK, all completely by hand – from scratch. They’re made up of full length staves which are all colour matched to create the look of a solid single piece of timber. This ensures extreme strength and stability and also means less chance of cracking or movement when in use. We then repeatedly hand sand each one until silky smooth. These premium quality personalised chopping boards are simply stunning!
All of our wooden chopping boards are treated with several coats of all natural Vegan rated food safe chopping board oil. There is nothing harmful in our oils, no hardeners or solvents, no bi-products, just 100% non-toxic natural plant based oils. Meaning our chopping boards are perfectly safe to use and we would have it no other way. This does mean aftercare and regular oiling is essential to keep your chopping board protected.

“Dear Ben,
I’ve been meaning to write for several days to say how delighted I am with the personalised oak chopping board which you made for me. It really is gorgeous and I know my son will love it. Being an enthusiastic cook he will get forever use out of it and I can’t wait to give it to him – it’s already perfectly wrapped and in the loft waiting for Christmas! I’m absolutely sure I will be coming to you again in the future so, till then, many thanks again and may I be the first to wish you a very Happy Christmas!!”

Dear Davina
A quick note to say thank you for the incredible work you and the team did in preparing my chopping boards. They look absolutely stunning and I can’t tell you how grateful I was for your speedy response!
As a slightly humorous aside, you may not have realised that my wife had also ordered from your website a board which carries an engraved poem from our wedding day! I can tell you that looks equally as sunning.
Thanks again for your help

Where do i begin…….
Wow!!!
The customer service is amazing! I spent a few days emailing them with questions and they very quickly responded. They were so helpful and really willing to to go the extra mile to get my large chopping right for me. I opted for the preview service which was great as I could physically see what it was going to look like. They showed me 3 different engraving options on the preview and all of this was for free!
I needed the board in a hurry as it was for my mothers birthday, and they made it and sent it super quick!,
I really can not begin to tell you how pleased I and my mother are with this chopping board. It’s beautiful. The wood is stunning and it feels so smooth, very tactile.
I recommend Make Me Something Special to anyone and everyone. I’ve had an idea for an anniversary present for my parent in laws and I can wait for you to design it and to see the preview for it!
Thank you again.

I needed something quite specific because of arthritis in my hands. Ben listened, advised and created a raised chopping board that works not only works perfectly but is beautiful.
Nerys (verified owner) –

James Price –
I never new oak could look so good!!!
I was searching for an engraved chopping board and after scouring the web came across several on other websites. I was hooked by the depth of detail that Make Me Something Special go into about there timber and how good it is. I bought a VL chopping board with engraving on both sides for my wife who has just given birth to our first baby! her first official Mother’s Day! It arrived 5 days later after telling me it could take up to 7! i got an email the day before it was dispatched as well! great service!
I cannot tell you how good this board really is! NO SERIOUSLY! It is stunning!! The grain is just gorgeous and the feel! it is as they say! like glass.
The only thing i can say as a very satisfied customer is, i wouldn’t buy from anyone else! I am so glad i found and chose Make Me Something Special!

We were looking for a unique present for our daughter, Emma’s 30th birthday and found excactly what we were looking for! A chopping board she could keep forever engraved with a birthday message and Supercook Em! She is a keen and talented cook and was delighted with the board which is permanently on display in her kitchen (and also on the Make me Something Special website!)
Peter –
We have ordered a couple of these as presents for family, the customer service we received in helping decide the right product and getting the engraving just right was excellent. The products themselves turned out even better than they look on the website, I would definitely recommend this company based on our experiences so far.

I had been searching for a good quality kneading board for ages before I came across Make Me Something Special. I loved their kneading boards but they were too big for my kitchen so I asked Ben to make me one bespoke. I now have an absolutely beautiful maple board, exactly what I wanted.
