Color-Coded Laminated Cards
Don't let family recipe cards get ruined by kitchen spills, smudges, or old age. Protect special recipes with self-laminating sheets that are easy to wipe off. Try color-coding recipes by category, using orange for side dishes and yellow for appetizers.
Print recipes two to a page onto 8-by-11-inch colored paper so there's one recipe on the top half and one on the bottom.
Place a recipe between two of the sheets, seal smoothly, and trim any excess plastic from the edges. Punch a hole in the upper left-hand corner of each card, and slip them onto a large binder ring.
