Engraving this rose skull design on a cork trivet was a fun way to combine art and functionality, adding a personalized touch to our kitchen essentials. After finding a striking image of a rose skull that my kids loved, I decided it would make the perfect engraving for a trivet we use daily. Seeing the detail come to life on cork opened up a whole new creative avenue—not only for our home but also as a unique gift idea for friends and family.


Working with cork was an exciting experiment, and the material’s natural look adds a warm, rustic feel to the design. This project has inspired me to explore even more custom engravings on both trivets and coasters, creating personalized pieces that are as practical as they are eye-catching.
