DIY Recipe Journal Splash Guard

​Many of our customers have started creating recipe journals with our stencils. Some have recently expressed worry about spilling and splattering on their lovely finished recipe layouts and wondered if there was any way to protect them. This is the sort of challenge I love.

So, my goal was to come up with a solution that used common, inexpensive, items many would already have in their homes that would do the trick AND store simply in the back of the journal until needed. Even better, this little ditty takes 3 minutes tops, requires only a permanent marker, a single sheet protector (the kind used in a 3-ring binder), scissors or an X-Acto knife, and maybe a ruler. The end result is a handy little drop-in protector that keeps your pretty recipe layouts from getting sauced. It's easily stored in the back of your journal and won't distort your pages.
