Everything's Coming Up Roses


This is a recipe box I picked up for Inkling. It was pretty plain Jane and I thought it needed a little dressing up. I knew all those gardening catalogues I was hoarding would come in handy someday!

Since it's a wedding gift I thought the roses were appropriate. Inkling, if you see this, at least act surprised when I give it to you! I couldn't wait until then to post it.

I still need to seal it with something. Any suggestions? I've used Mod-Podge in the past, but thought it stayed a little sticky.

If you have any recipes you'd like to add to it, please send them to me at farmgirl_1976@hotmail.com and I promise to give you the credit!

How colorful! It will be a bright spot in the kitchen. Now I know what I can do with all the flower 'zine cut-outs I've been saving.


I would also suggest a spray sealer. I'd try a waterproof version if one exists.
