recipe storage roundup

d*s reader lilianne asked if i would create a little roundup of pretty recipe storage options. seeing as today is “in the kitchen” friday i thought it would only be fitting to post it today. i’ve included boxes and a few binder options, i hope you’ll enjoy them. as always, please feel free to add your favorites below. also, if you’re looking for something vintage, ebay is a great source. just type in “recipe box“.

[image above, clockwise from top left: gina b “kate” recipe box (i got this one for christmas), three ring recipe book $30, bamboo recipe box $12.99, stainless steel recipe box $29.99, acrylic recipe box $12.99, simplicity recipe box $16]

Cakespy said: January 18th, 2008 - 11:32 am	I think the vintage one is my favorite–but really, they’re all great finds! Nice roundup.

style saves the world said: January 18th, 2008 - 12:18 pm	What a great roundup! Pretty binders are my fave way to store recipes… so easy to toss in printouts from Epicurious and friends’ borrowed cookbooks!

Courtney Bartik said: January 18th, 2008 - 12:30 pm	I use an elegant/rustic recipe book that I love! I especially love that the recipes go on Fabriano Medioevalis deckle-edged stationery!

Lissette said: January 18th, 2008 - 1:12 pm	I keep putting off buying that Fred Flare recipe box but I think it’s time…

Melissa said: January 18th, 2008 - 1:50 pm	I also just read about tastebook.com, which will make a custom book out your recipes. I plan on making one of old family recipes with pictures and what-not and giving it to all my family members for Christmas…

Jenna said: January 18th, 2008 - 2:47 pm	There is also a red Betty Crocker recipe box at Borders and at FredFlare http://fredflare.com/customer/product.php?productid=3155&cat=316

kati said: January 18th, 2008 - 3:39 pm	Yay! I love Gina B! Those ladies are all sweet. Not to give another plug but we carry this this marimekko recipe box which I am totally batty for. It doesn’t say so on the site (I don’t know WHY!) but I did call Paper Prince to verify!

Pomegranate said: January 18th, 2008 - 4:23 pm	I love this post! So important to me :)

laura said: January 18th, 2008 - 5:42 pm	lovely finds, would you consider doing a rug roundup?

j said: January 18th, 2008 - 8:14 pm	these are great. the binder is a good idea- store right on the bookshelf

Jenny said: January 20th, 2008 - 5:42 pm	Oh my! I need to collect more recipes. Since I found at least 3 boxes/binders that would look too cute in my kitchen. Thanks for the post!

Lee Ann said: January 20th, 2008 - 9:15 pm	Love the vintage lobster one!!! My favorite!

jeanie said: January 21st, 2008 - 8:51 pm	oh, the vintage lobster one is the one I grew up using, and my mom still uses it to this day, I am always plotting to steal it. I love recipes, and your round up is terrific - such cute storage!

J. P. Bottorff said: February 16th, 2008 - 7:06 pm	You didn’t mention any of the computer recipe programs. So easy to print one out when you want a copy and mine (Mangia)give you some recipes to try out. Love mine

MK Wong said: June 6th, 2008 - 10:59 pm	Here is a recipe box by Jack & Lulu: http://www.jackandlulu.com/products/rb111.html
