I LOVE MAGAZINES!!!!
I read them so fast that people (mainly my family) make fun of me. I currently get seven subscriptions to my house:
- Family Fun
- Better Homes and Gardens
- Redbook
- Family Circle
- Parenting
- Family Handyman ( hubby's)
- Money (hubby got it but I read it too)
And my mom gets "O" magazine too, which she shares.
So I only had 20 pages from 14 magazines. Pretty good for me. |
First, I figured out my categories:
-Self Help
-Money Stuff
-Mom/Kid stuff
-Beauty(Makeup/Hair/Clothes)
-Inspiration
-Organization
I found these dividers.....
Isn't that a cool tree in that ad? |
Then I take my really old hole punch, punch some holes, and start adding my articles. They make new ones with levers that are much more hard core. I really need to invest in one.
Now whenever I find articles that I can't live without, I have a place to putt hem without taking up valuable bookshelf space. I also go through the binder once every few months to weed out any articles that I haven't looked at or don't apply anymore. I always tell myself that if I can't fit anymore in the binder, then I can't keep anymore.
I know....that cook book has seen better days. It's well loved. |
I still save magazine pages as well. I just slide ine into page protectors in a three ring binder.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad there are more of us out there. My goal now is to actually do something with the pages/ideas I keep. It's a lofty goal.
Deletegirl, i save magazine pages, too. ALSO, i have that pink cookbook!!
ReplyDeleteDude.... We are two peas in a far-apart pod! I can't wait for May.
