I know I usually use my blog to share recipes, but this was such a fabulous idea that I couldn't help but share! (I mean, it's still sorta related.) I was poking around on my sister's FABULOUS blog one day and came across her entry about making a Recipe Binder.
If you're like me, you probably have a million magazines here, there, and everywhere. They don't get thrown away (or recycled) because they contain recipes that someday you might actually want to make. The problem is, you never remember you have those recipes or you cannot find them because there are too many magazines to search through. And that's where this handy bit of organization comes in!
I went through every single one of my magazines and neatly tore out the recipes that I would like to try someday.
I found the cutest binder at Target that is made by a company called Greenroom (you should check them out!). I also bought some simple dividers and labeled each (appetizers & snacks, sides, seafood, vegetarian, and desserts & baked goods). I then neatly trimmed up the ragged edges of my magazine pages, used a 3-hole-punch, and placed them in their assigned category.
Now my giant stack of magazines is being divided between my classroom to be turned into collages, and the recycling center.
