I saw this idea somewhere on Splitcoast Stampers and now I can't find it again to give credit where credit is due. :( If I find it, I will update this post. When I saw it, it was the inspiration for my gift to my co-workers for the Holidays. I ordered Papertrey Ink's Recipe Box stamp set, Recipe Box Label stamp set, and coordinating recipe cards. I collected a favorite recipe from each co-worker in my department and then made each person a ring o' recipes. They are stamped with "From the kitchen of" and I filled in the name of the person who submitted that recipe. I bought the rings at Staples and simply tied a ribbon for a finishing touch. Writing 110 receipes wasn't exactly fun, but the worth the effort! I also made a couple of these for friends which I presented with a bottle of wine decorated in a coordinating wine wrap and matching tag.

That is such a great idea! Looks great!
ReplyDeleteLove this! Can't believe you handwrote all those recipes. The finished product (and all the thanks you must've received) probably made it worth it, though!
ReplyDeleteSuch a wonderful and thoughtful idea! And it turned out great!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic idea!!! It's so pretty!!! I wonder if you got a big enough ring if you could slide it over the top of the wine bottle? Seeeeeeeee!!! You have my mind clickin' away over here!! ;-)
