Hello, My Name is Hannah...and I am Addicted to Cookbooks

I am a sucker for cookbooks. Plain and simple. If you think this is a lot, I have more that are already stored in a box. These are just the ones I have had out to currently use.




I told myself that I would narrow them down to only five to keep out right now. HA! I decided that I couldn't live without any of these, so nine is the lucky number.

If you only have a few cookbooks, I like this wire holder from Pottery Barn. You could also do multiple ones on a wall.


I think that the use of a wire basket or dish drainer is a great idea if you have the counter space. I had never thought of this or seen it before I found these pictures.


I am very glad to see that I am not the only person who has lots of cookbooks. Do you have a lot? Or only a few favorites? How do you store or display yours?

  1. Love this post so much! I love cookbooks plain and simple. I am always looking for new ones to get. I have a wire shelf from Ikea that I keep all of my cookbooks on. Eventually, my goal is to have it completely filled up!

  2. I have so many cookbooks as well. After this post you have inspired me to display them in a better way. Right now they aren't even in my kitchen. I try to go through every so often, write out the recipes I like from the book and then donate it.

  3. I love cookbooks too. I keep mine on the bottom shelf of the pantry. I have been in heaven since I found out the library has cookbooks, no more wasting money on ones that aren't that good.
    I like the new design

  4. I adore the color coded Elle Decor picture. I love cookbooks, and think they're always such great gifts. I have a shelf on top of the fridge where I keep mine, but eventually I'd love built in shelves in my kitchen for them. :)

  5. Hannah!! So glad you found my blog - and you are so sweet to comment! I love yours and can't wait to read more this weekend. I just had to comment on this post because I am obsessed with cookbooks. It has been fun to buy old ones and see how recipes have changed (as well as photography!!)
    yay for finding new fab blogs! Love your layout!
