Do you like the laid back lifestyle? Do you prefer a beachside bash or a surfside celebration to a stuffy formal indoor event? Then the "Paradise Found" Surfboard Bamboo Cutting Board is what you have been looking for. Shaped like a shortboard and cut from genuine Moso bamboo, it entertains your guests while you put together a masterful feast, and it withstands stains and fading with no waxing required. A hanging loop is built into the tail so your gnarly novelty can hang on the wall for everyone to see.
Engraving is what turns it into a keepsake. The board has two separate engraving locations, top and bottom, and each takes two lines of up to 36 characters, engraved in-house by HansonEllis, personalizing gifts since 1999. That is room for the couple's names and the wedding date at the top and a beach house name or a line of nonsense at the bottom. Really make a splash by engraving the name of the lucky couple, or a message that will still raise a smile years later.
Guests take the point. A mother in Australia ordered these as the men's favors for her son's wedding and wrote that he was blown away by the quality and the uniqueness of them, that the help with her order was a pleasure, and that five stars did not feel like enough. Another buyer chose one for a fifth wedding anniversary, decided with his wife that the board was too nice to cut on, and hung it under one of their wedding photos instead.
The boards make natural centerpieces surrounded by Mini Beach Folding Chairs, flanked by Nautical Wooden Beach Shell Deck Chairs, or tucked into a Personalized Beach Tote Bag with a Flip Flop Manicure Set. Send summer greetings over the holidays with a board and some Seashell Potpourri Ornaments, serve a favorite Hawaiian treat on one, or drop it into a fruit and cheese basket. Put these out at your next luau, backyard barbecue or beach wedding and you can be sure they will get people talking.

Which one should I choose
Beach favors usually come down to what a guest does with the thing once the party ends.
| "Paradise Found" Surfboard Bamboo Cutting Board | Choose it when the favor should still be in someone's kitchen or on their wall next summer, with names and a date engraved on it. |
|---|---|
| Mini Beach Folding Chairs or Nautical Wooden Beach Shell Deck Chairs | Choose those for decoration around the board, when you want the table dressed rather than every guest sent home with something. |
| Personalized Beach Tote Bag | Choose that when the favor needs to carry other things, and use the board as the surprise inside it. |
| A printed paper place card or paper favor | Choose it when the keepsake only has to last through dinner. |
For a beach wedding favor with a long life after the reception, the engraved bamboo surfboard board is the one guests photograph and keep.

Questions shoppers ask about the "Paradise Found" Surfboard Bamboo Cutting Board
How big is the "Paradise Found" Surfboard Bamboo Cutting Board?
It measures 14" X 6" X 5/8" in a surfboard shape, so it fits on a counter, a serving table or a wall without taking over the room.
What is the board made of?
Genuine Moso bamboo. It withstands stains and fading and needs no waxing.
Can I hang it up instead of using it on the counter?
Yes. Every board has a hanging loop built in for display. One buyer and his wife decided theirs was too nice to cut on and hung it under one of their wedding photos.
Where can the board be engraved and how much text fits?
There are two engraving locations. The top location takes two lines of up to 36 characters, and the bottom location takes another two lines of up to 36 characters, so a long message can be split across the board.
Do I have to use both engraving locations?
No. Many buyers engrave only the top with names and a date. The bottom location is there when you want a second thought, a venue or a family name at the other end.
Are these good wedding favors for men?
They are one of the better answers to that question. A reviewer ordered them as the men's favors at her son's wedding and said he was blown away by the quality and uniqueness of them.
Can each board be engraved with a different name?
Yes. Order the quantity you need, then email your list of names and lines to [email protected] after ordering.
Can I put a company logo on the board?
Yes, as a custom order. Email a vector file (.eps, .ai, .cdr, .pdf or .svg) or a high-resolution image to [email protected]. A logo setup fee applies and not every logo can be engraved.
Can I see a proof of my engraving first?
Yes. Proofs are optional and available on request for a $35-55 service fee per proof, and a proof adds extra days to production. Changes after a proof has been sent carry a $40 minimum updating fee. Customer Support is on 310-878-9429.
Is there a minimum order for these boards?
No minimum. Order one board as a gift or one for every guest at a beach wedding. For bulk pricing, please contact [email protected].
