CraftGossip's Fork and Talk Review Night

It is back!

Last October, we hosted a CraftGossip Fork and Talk Night (actually afternoon) in Little Rock, Arkansas. And boy, did the 24 of us have fun!

Check out the photos on the Flickr account. Or read our official report here. Or read some enthusiastic reports from the people who attended, here, here, here and here.

The event was sponsored by EK Success and was held at Trio’s in Little Rock.

CG Happy Bloggers

Because the event was such a big success, we are bringing it back to the Trio’s restaurant at Little Rock on the 21st of April, 2012.

There will be free lunch and drinks, lots of crafting, and lots of items crammed into the EK Success sponsored goodie bags to take home. You will also meet all our four editors who attended last time. (Denise from Needlework, Stacie from Jewelry Making, Scarlett from Quilting and Anne from Sewing).

All we ask is that you have a blog, and that you write about the event afterwards (within 7 days).

You must be able to come to the event yourself. Bloggers from nearby cities are more than welcome as long as they can drive themselves to the event on the 21st of April (Memphis? Jackson? Fort Smith? Shreveport? Even Dallas? Remember, it is a fun filled day and there is free food and drinks!).

So, if you are ready to attend a fun filled afternoon crafting, meeting other fellow bloggers and crafters, while being wined and dined, then apply below. We will contact the successful bloggers by the 1st of April for confirmation.

Handmade with a Past: Tuesday’s Top Recycled Etsy Find

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.
