Using your loaf!
This is my first commissioned piece and to say I was nervous is an understatement! My friend wanted something for her mums new country kitchen, she provided the book and it was up to me to choose the piece!
I found a plain wooden bread bin and covered it with the brilliant old 1950's cookbook, using other old recipe book pictures for the inside. I matched the handle and hinge to the colour of the stripes on the pages.
H 22.5cm, W 44cm, D 24cm
I love the fact that the book was well loved and complete with all the usual cookery stains, it makes a completely personal piece!
