Tay Makes is the home of Tay's two small businesses in The Woodlands, Texas: handcrafted acrylic and beaded goods, and charcuterie made to gather around.

Real boards and cups, made by Tay.
The Long Board — salami roses, brie with rosemary, grapes, apricots, olives and cornichons, built to graze.
Date Night Topper — a little charcuterie plate that sits right on your wine glass: prosciutto, toast, jam and greens. Part of the $45 Date Night Box (wine not included).
Charcuterie Cup — pepperoni and salami, cheese, a grape skewer and pretzels in a grab-and-go cup. $7 each, minimum one dozen.
The Long Board, from above — two ends, two moods: brie and apricots on one side, jam-topped cheese and prosciutto on the other.
Party-Ready Cups — a full tray of cups, kept covered and fresh until it's time to serve.
The Long Board, side view — cheese knives in, ready for guests.
Cups, up close — every cup gets its own meat, cheese, grapes and pretzels.
Date Night Topper — one more look. The toast stands up so it stays crisp.
The Big Graze — a full table-style spread on parchment: brie in the middle, ringed with crackers, meats, cheeses, nuts, olives and fruit.
Berry Platter — brie, raspberries, blackberries and prosciutto rolls on a big round platter.
The Mediterranean Platter — stuffed grape leaves, green olives, dates, an herb-crusted cheese log and salami.
Sweet Tooth Tray — yes, the Spread does dessert too: chocolate cake with fresh cream, strawberries, blueberries and chocolate treats.
The Bamboo Board — two cheese spreads, candied pecans, salami, apple slices, grapes and a whole shoreline of crackers.
The Jam Board — glossy berry jam over cheese at the center, prosciutto-wrapped mozzarella, olives, cubed cheeses, apples and peppers.
The Red Tray — brie ringed with figs, pepperoni, salami, cheddar cubes, cornichons, apples, grapes and herb crackers.
Every board is built to order. Tell us your date, your headcount and any dietary needs (pork-free, gluten-free and dairy-free are all doable) and Tay will design a spread around them.
