Recently, I was wondering how to organize my cookbooks. I have a lot and many have been handed down over the years and our cherished treasures. By looking over some magazines I was inspired and came up with the perfect solution.
I took an old crate and cleaned it up…
Before
Ran to the hobby store and picked up some craft paint…
After
And painted the crate a beautiful speckled color.
Problem solved! Isn’t it a stylish and trendy way to display cherished cookbooks?
The next area I’m going to concentrate on is our vast family room wall that we have always filled up with a hodge podge of pictures drawn, painted or colored by our grandchildren. I’m thinking of putting these works of arts in matting so they look tied together, without the expense of frames.
What about you? How do you store your cookbooks?
I need to do this for my books. They are all over the kitchen. I would love to have them all need and tidy!
Love this! I have a few old cookbooks that were my grandmas and this crate would be a perfect storage solution for them. Thank you!
