Vynopa Wood Cookbook Stand

Whether you’re old-school and cook from a splattered family cookbook or pull up recipes on your tablet, it’s nice to have a spot to prop them up where you can actually read them. This wooden stand, available in birch and walnut, has a hinged kickstand that adjusts to the angle you want. Metal rods hold your pages open, so you’re not pinning the book down with the salt shaker mid-recipe. It’s 14.6 x 8.9 inches and weighs about 1.5 pounds, so it’s easy to move around. Heads up: it’s on the compact side, so a big open cookbook will hang past the edges. The rods still keep the pages in place.

When you’re not cooking, leave it out to show off a favorite family recipe card or a vintage cookbook. The warm wood adds a nice touch to a countertop or kitchen island. There’s a hole in the handle, too, so you can hang it on the wall to free up counter space. With the holidays coming up, it makes a sweet gift for the home cook in your life.
