Fix It Up Friday: My Recipe Binder Needs a Makeover

Good morning!  It is time for Fix It Up Friday again.  I am so glad to have you join me. This week I am going to let you see my recipe binder in the hopes that you will hold me accountable.

Two years ago I wrote a post about my recipe binder.  It was all nice and neat and I was pretty pleased with myself for keeping it that way.

Fast forward to today and I am not pleased anymore.


This is about a one inch binder specifically for recipes.  It is cute, but I have outgrown it.

What I had attempted to do was take a picture of each recipe I make and type up the directions.  Then I put the printed recipe into a plastic sheet protector.  I like this idea, but then I kind of quit doing that.


Thus, my binder is a mess.  I don't enjoy trying to find my recipes.  This system isn't working for me anymore.


Obviously, my recipe binder needs to be "fixed up".

The reason I have posted about my binder this week is that I intend to get my recipes in order by next Friday.  I plan to share a "fixed up" recipe binder next Friday.  If I don't you have the right to yell at me.  Well, I guess you can scold me in the comments since I probably won't ever meet most of you.

Do you have any suggestions for how I can improve my recipe system before I get started?  I would love to hear your ideas for what works for you with regards to storing your recipes.

Now, it is your turn to link up your creative posts.  I look forward to seeing all of your great ideas. The guidelines for linking up are here.
