Personalize a Cookbook Stand

A wonderful gift idea that doesn't need a lot of supplies- just drying time.

Equipment

  • 1 Unfinished wood cook book stand
  • Modge Podge (I used glossy Modge Podge for shine)
  • Paint brush or foam brush
  • 1 A copy of a recipe *Important: Use a laser printer; inkjet does not work well here. Also, make sure to "flip" your document words into mirror image before printing.

Instructions

  • Get your supplies.
  • Paint a thick layer of Modge Podge on the cookbook stand where you'll place your recipe.
  • Place your recipe on top of the layer of Modge Podge.
  • Smooth the recipe out on the surface so it lies completely flat. Let it sit for at least 24 hours.
  • Take a wet cloth (not soaking) and place it on top of the paper to loosen.
  • Gently rub all the paper off with a wet cloth.
  • Let it dry.
  • Lastly, paint a layer of Modge Podge over the recipe and let it dry.
  • This is a great gift idea!
