Vintage Kitchen Graphics Vol. 5 - Antique Ads & Old-fashioned Recipes Kit

Kit Info

Description

In addition to illustrations and advertisements, I think vintage recipes make very cool graphical elements. Their old-fashioned nature is conveyed in the way they're laid out, in the language used and the components the recipe writer chose to include and leave out (how did people bake without oven temperatures? without oven thermostats, for that matter??). I've included a few recipes here that particularly pleased me, for "Sunshine Cake," "Fruit Frappies," and "Egg Nests."

While working on my Cozy Kitchen bundle I combed through a collection of 100-year-old antique cookbooks for inspiration, and found way more wonderful vintage imagery than I could put to use in my kit. I just adore vintage packaging and how intricately it was rendered in old etchings, and I love old print ads with their over-the-top mixes of hand-lettered fonts and wingdings. I decided to extract and clean up the best ones to share, because I know they’ll come in handy for your recipe cards and kitchen-themed layouts, and for adding a touch of funky old-fashioned style to art journal pages and shabby vintage layouts.

Graphics come as black PNGs and as an .abr brush file. *Most graphics are actually larger than they appear in the preview.*
