Awhile back I worked on a project with Cookie Magazine and Jenny Rosenstrach to create hand painted kitchen recipe doors. The process involved Jenny sending me a few of her favorite recipes as well as her kitchen cabinet door. The first step was priming the back of the door with a few coats of paint. Once this was complete I did a general layout sketch to make everything would fit a.ok. The next step was to hand lettering the recipes. So fun! I tried to keep the look somewhat loose in order to keep the feel of recipe cards. I also scattered little drawings here and there to jazz things up a bit.

This looks so great. I love the idea of opening the cupboard door and finding a surprise on it. Great idea and nicely executed :)
