Organize Your Life with Binders

by Toni Herrbach

Binders have been around for many years and are a tried and true organization method.  A few years ago I switched to using binders as a filing method and it really works! They don’t take up much space and it has really helped me keep my files organized.

Kristia calls herself a binder queen (and I believe she’s right).  She says,

“I keep binders for many different areas of my life: recipes, finances, workouts. They keep me organized and sane in the areas of my life where I could easily lose all sense of control.”



You can read more about her binder system for organizing her office and life at Family Balance Sheet.

    I reuse the ones left over from the school year. If the sides are torn I just use pretty duck tape to fix it. Duck tape comes in such pretty colors these days.

    My filing system is SO not working (I absolutely HATE filing). This might be a better option for me. Thanks so much!
