In my small urban kitchen, everything goes up on the wall: colanders, spoons, spatulas, and now cutting boards. In fact, I've had to pass up hand-me-down John Boos cutting boards because they were too wide, too heavy, and well, you can't hang them all the wall. As a footnote to our previous post on Display-Worthy Cutting Boards, here are 10 boards, all with cutout holes for hanging.
