Thought it was so neat, just had to share.

That is clever!

LOVE this! But all my cookbooks would be too heavy. Good for recipe cards though.

Necessity is the Mother of Invention as they say. I do something similar. I often stick my recipe cards inside the kitchen cabinet door molding to read it at eye level. I noticed this lady has flat front cabinetry tho. This idea, tho creative/resourceful indeed wouldn't work for heavy/thick books, but pages or cards would be ideal.

I recently buckled down and inserted my recipes in clear, archival sleeves (thanks Staples!) inside ringed binders. I have THREE thick binders so far and the only thing I have left to do is to create a Table of Contents tho catergories are divided already. Since I have hundreds of recipes compiled via the Net, friends, family and newspapers/magazines, this task took me HOURS/DAYS to complete. I now can easily access my recipes and not worry about splattering on them. BTW, they were filed back to back. I highly recommend anyone with a similar stash of recipes does this. It's something I can hand down to my DS and DIL. I got this idea from my DIL who has done this for a few years now. I had recipe pile envy till I finished this project myself.

Great idea but I don't have knobs on my cabinets! I just tape them on the door front!

I usually hang a recipe on my fridge with a magnetic clip. The fridge is close to my working area.

That's clever. I'm like Jo-CT and tape them to the cabinet, especially if I'm making several different ones at the same time.
