My Recipe Binder

I finally got around to making my Recipe Binder to
organize my recipe mess I had in this container:

I got the idea from Prudent Baby's Recipe Binder. 

I wanted to print out their pretty binder design but 

I ran out of ink and was too cheap to go out and buy more. 

So I found these pretty folders in Target aka my favorite store:

Don't you just love those red Target clearance stickers?

I know I do! These pretties cost me $0.39/ea!

I also purchased Post-It tabs to turn my folders into

dividers to organize the inside of my binder.

I began by cutting my folders in half and measuring the exact

size I would need for my dividers.

I then added the tabs to the cut-out folders to make

my dividers into three sections:

1. Appetizers/Sides

2. Main Dishes

3. Desserts

Here you can see the inside of my binder with my recipes 

neatly in their protective sleeves:

I also used one of the folders to decorate the outside of my binder:

Now my recipe binder is done and ready to be stored away in 

my new kitchen!
