To start off, I just googled images of fruits and veggies and printed them off. Then you trace the image on the back side of the cutting board with a black permanent marker (The side you cut on should be face down.)
The image will be mirrored from the front/cutting side.
Then use regular old acrylic paint. You may have to do 2 coats with some colors. When it's dry, spray a clear acrylic sealer over the paint to keep it from coming off. I've learned that it takes a couple of hours for it to really set and not scratch off.
Here are all the finished products! The orange and pear are my favorite!!!

Those are SO cute! That would make a really great and unique gift! Where does your mom get the cutting boards? The orange is my favorite.
Have you always been this talented at EVERYTHING!!!??? Wish I were your neighbor! You should do elements on them next!
Um, my birthday is coming up. I could us a Hydrogen cutting board...or a Ruthenium cutting board...or an Aluminum cutting board...of a Einsteinium cutting board.
Those turned out really cute! I think the orange is my favorite too. I will look for more of those cutting boards when I go to the store.
