Summer Preserves Cookbook Stand

Pantry Shelf · Mason jars of apricot jam and berry preserves

Put up for winter

A row of homemade jam on the shelf feels like money in the bank. This design celebrates canning season with gingham lids and plenty of fruit, and it's a lovely gift for the family jam maker.

The artwork

Glass mason jars of apricot jam, strawberry preserves and blackberry jelly wear gingham cloth lids tied with string, surrounded by fresh apricots, strawberries and blackberries. Cheerful gouache on a pale butter ground.

The stand

All Cardamomkeep stands share this build, so the only decision is the artwork. Full measurements are on our Size Guide.

Setting it up

1. Fold out the back support and pick one of the five angles.
2. Rest your cookbook, binder or tablet on the front ledge.
3. Ease the two page holders over the open pages to keep your place.
4. Done cooking? Fold it flat and slide it into a drawer, or leave the artwork on show.
