Step-by-Step Guide to Create Your Natural Stone Cheese Board
Step 1: Prepare Your Workstation
Choose a clean, well-lit area to work on your cheese board. Ensure you have all your materials within reach.
Step 2: Attach the Bumpers
Turn your Agate slice over to the backside. This is where you'll attach the soft felt or rubber bumpers. These bumpers will keep your stone stable and prevent scratches on your table or countertop. Ensure they're evenly spaced along the edges.
Step 3: Apply the Food-Safe Finish
To protect the Agate and make it food-ready, you'll need a food-safe finish. Apply it according to the manufacturer's instructions, ensuring you cover the entire surface. This finish will bring out the stone's natural lustre and patterns, making it even more eye-catching.
Step 4: Allow to Dry
After applying the finish, allow your Agate cheese board to dry thoroughly. This typically takes a few hours. Be patient; the results will be worth it.
Step 5: Arrange Your Delights
Once your Agate cheese board is dry and ready, it's time to arrange your favourite cheeses, fruits, nuts, and other delectable delights. Get creative with your presentations, and your guests will be impressed.
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy
Your natural stone cheese board is now ready to take centre stage at your event. As you serve your delectable offerings, watch your guests' faces light up with admiration for your unique, handcrafted creation.
