  4. My grandson and I would love to have this book. He’s been folding since the age of 6. What a fun book! Thanks for offering it as a prize.

  8. I’d love to have this because I have recently turned $20 bills (rent we pay a friend every month) into stars and shirts. I show her my little creation and offer her a regular bill. She always takes the origami. But I’m learning from YouTube videos and there’s a lot of pausing and rewinding going on. Lol.

  9. This would be great to have some one on one time with my foster child. An awesome hands on skill for staying focused and paying attention.

  11. This would be an awesome way to entertain the grand kids if I could learn to do it.

If you love a good wine and a stylish cheese platter, then this recycled flat wine bottle cheese board will be your new best friend. Not only does it combine two of life’s greatest pleasures, but it also gives a second life to old wine bottles, turning them into something functional and chic.

I stumbled across a similar piece at a friend’s gathering last year, and I couldn’t stop admiring it. The wine bottle was almost unrecognizable—transformed into a sleek, modern board for snacks and small bites. It’s the perfect conversation starter, and honestly, it brings a certain wow factor to any dinner party or casual gathering.

This cheese board isn’t just pretty; it’s practical too. The smooth surface is ideal for serving everything from crackers to fruit to your favorite cheeses. Plus, it’s an awesome example of recycling and upcycling, keeping those old bottles out of landfills while elevating your entertaining game.

Why we love it:

  • Made from recycled flat wine bottles, adding sustainability to your kitchen

  • A unique upcycled home decor item that’s also super functional

  • Ideal for wine lovers, eco-conscious hosts, or anyone who loves a good cheese board

Not only does this board make for a stylish and sustainable addition to your kitchen, but it also makes for an awesome gift for those who love eco-friendly entertaining.
