Recipes Anyone

As the snow if flying and the cold is starting to set in I am finding myself pulling out my recipe book to make some yummy dinners and desserts.

But I am going to be honest my recipe book is not pretty, at all. Beware this is a little scary.

Yup that's right here it is, an old binder with pages spread throughout most of them not even in their protective covers but just shoved in and not organized.  Most times I find myself spending more time than I want trying to locate the recipe I want.

  

I found these basic but cute little boxes at a local store and gave them a coat of paint, then sanded the edges. For this one I stenciled on Cakes & Cookies.  I am going to do two more for the other good stuff like main meals and salads you know the healthy things. 

Trying to find pre-made recipe cards to fit in these boxes wasn't happening so I made these recipe cards up on my photoshop program.  I like it this way because as I get new recipes I have the cards done up and ready to go.  

Know to fill those recipe boxes with all my yummy recipes.  

I think this would also make a fantastic homemade gift for a parent or grandparent with all your family recipes in it.
