Recipe Box And Cards Diy. Summer is such a blast but returning to the life of being a 24 7 event planner therapist chef and referee to my kids can be a rude awakening that. I was looking for a cute place to house the recipe cards but this project was actually born out of another purge.
I use 1 8 thick birch plywood for the top and bottom and a beautiful piece of 3 8 thick 4 wide blond hardwood that i salvaged from a shipping pallet. The sides front and back of the box are cut. I m guessing it s pearwood but any stable wood will do.
A recipe box was the perfect storage solution.
I actually have a cookbook prune that has one of these and i love it so that s what inspired me to add one here. My kids are out of school for the summer next week and i bet yours are already out which means if you re a parent you are going to need to find some way to unwind and fast. I made this recipe box for 3 x 5 index cards but feel free to scale up for larger recipe cards. I m guessing it s pearwood but any stable wood will do.
