DIY recipe book holder

Don’t I know a few people who could use one or two of these? Yes, I am acquainted with the creature known as the Cookbook Hoarder (her name is Lisa if you are wondering). But even if you have a giant, overflowing shelf full of cookbooks, there’s always those one or two special books that you want to show off and share with others.

This is a great and simple way to customise a shelf for your special books:

…and it couldn’t be easier.  If you’re one of those freaks who starts their Christmas DIY projects now (I’m not judging. I may or may not be describing myself there) then you might want to distract your friend with a small smoke bomb or other, likely more considered plan, so you can quickly measure her books.
