This book was created for a customer who re-did her kitchen in an art deco style with lots of red, stainless steel, and chrome.  She wanted a guest book for her home where guests could leave comments and she could write down recipes from various gatherings.  I found the image of this great art deco style frame and had it made into a die so it could be stamped on the cover in silver.  This design is available for future projects.  The book has 200 unlined off-white pages that are 8" tall by 10" wide.  The cover is red pigskin leather with the name of the home and the family's name stamped in silver inside the frame.  The back cover has a favorite quote from Shakespeare that is fitting for a recipe book.  All cover lettering is done in a simple san serif in keeping with the art deco theme.  This book also has silver endpapers (not pictured) and a silver ribbon page marker.

A book like this would cost around $150 not including the cost of the die.  But since I still have the die, it can be used on future projects without any additional cost.
