Now that it’s so easy to find anything you need on the internet, hard copy books have become useless. They’re not as practical and easy to use as browsing on the internet is so things like cookbooks are mostly collectible items. Now iPads and tables have replaced them. O instead of buying a cookbook you can now buy a stand for your tablet. Here are some models to choose from. Shaped like a rustic cutting board, this iPad stand combines the old with the new in a very simple and charming way. If you prefer something a little more special, you could opt for a personalized stand such as this one. It’s also shaped like a cutting board but it’s less rustic.
