Hello there,
it's nice to have you stop by!
My library always has a cart outside marked FREE !
Every once in a while I find a treasure.
I found this 1965 Betty Crocker
Cookbook- It was in sad condition.
The covers were completely removed and the pages
were out of order and plenty of stains.
I loved the pictures and thought
I could use them for some other project.
When I looked over the book I noticed that
none of the pages were missing.
Then I thought I will just try to put it back together
as best I could.
I looked in my stash and found this old
Mary Engelbreit fabric with tiny cherries.
I used the fabric to cover the inside.
I used a 3 hole punch to replace
the old missing binding.
I had 3, 1'' binder rings
I used some scraps of ribbon to cover the hinge.
Then I added an old Betty Crocker Gingerbread Man
cookie cutter to the ring.
I 'm glad I was able to keep it together.
This cookbook has some fun recipes.
Here are a couple that I want to try-
Take care, my friend!
