SU Recipe Boxes- Help please!

[MelissaJeaner]

Hi there!
I am new to the forum and have a few questions for anyone who has received or sen the Spring/Summer SU catalog.
I am a bride-to-be and I'm looking to do these recipe boxes for each of my bridesmaids. I purchased the stainless steel boxes through the internet, as AC Moore did not have them.
Does anyone know how they adhered the paper to the steel? I am assuming the sticky strip red tape?
Also, where on earth can I find the chipboard letters??
Thanks in advance!

SU! sells the chipboard letters but you can find them at Michaels, JoAnn Fabrics, Archivers, almost every craft store has them.

I got chipboard letters at Walmart too.

As soon as I saw that recipe box in the catty I wanted to make it!! I was wondering where you can get the recipe boxes too.

Of course then I'll have to get everything else to make them too!!

Yes, sticky strip will be your best bet. Just don't try to seal the top with Mod Podge. If you want to seal it, use the Krylon Spray sealer or something similar to avoid warping.

What a fabulous gift! Your bridesmaids will love them!

Is this the tin that is used to created the recipe box in SU catalog? I cannot tell from the picture the dimensions.

hi guys- thanks for all of your suggestions!
I actually purchased from chefcentral- they had the stainless steel bins for 19.99 each. i bit pricey, but they were the exact one from the SU recipe model in the catalog!

I went to michaels last night to search for chipboard letters and i only found sparkly pink ones!! ahhh!!!

thanks again

I was just coming here to see if anyone knew where to get the recipe file off page 105 in the catalog! Guess great minds think alike! Thanks for all the info, everyone! Keri
