I {heart} binders

July 17, 2011 011

I have an obsession with binders.  They just feel so…official.  ~smile~

Here are the two binders I’ve been focused on lately.

First, there is the “Little White House” Binder.  I had thought about revamping my old home management binder but when I saw Salinda’s binder, I was inspired to pull my binder out and rework it.  There’s still quite a bit of work to do on it but I have a good starting point for getting our home under control.

Some good links on home management binders are:

Salinda got her printables from Clean Mama.

I’ve found information at Homegrown Mom, Household Management 101, and Organized Home (thanks to Salinda for telling about that one).  I bought a cleaning chores system at Motivated Moms.

Salinda and I are also going to be working through the Holiday Game plan this year.  I have dreams of an organized, less stressful Christmas for our family.

This binder, let’s call her “Bertha”, has been my recipe binder for over seven years.  She’s about to receive a major face-lift and re-organization. 

I may even let her model for you when she’s done.  And I’ll have to tell you how I use Bertha in conjunction with that little black binder in the picture at the top of this post.

You know I love to garden but that’s not in a binder.  For gardening, I have journals.

I like to add pictures from Country Living magazine, bits of ribbon, and scrapbook paper through out my gardening journal. 

Weren’t we talking about binders…

Oh yes, we were.

 

What about homeschooling? 

Yes, I use binders for homeschooling too.

How many you say?

Well…
