It's time to refill my card organizer so I decided to share what works for me. I have used this for several years now......I think it's time I make a cute fabric cover to make it pretty.......but until then this is what I use.
What you need: 3 ring binder, several pencil pockets with a zipper (found in the school supplies), a monthly template to write down dates of birthdays, stamps and and address list, clear page protectors and of course cards!
I simply put ready made cards in each pocket, fill out all the birthdays or other dates that I have to keep track of throughout the year, buy stamps and update my address list and put it all in the binder and I am all set for the year. I make a few extra blank cards and put them in the front pocket for all those other extra times I need a card. I believe in keeping oraganization simple and practical and of course usable. Have fun!
**Since I did this a few years ago I couldn't find the same template I am using but here is another one that can work.
Thank you sooo Much for posting this, I really need this to keep me organized on remebering everyone bday and to actually send a card so they get it on time, what a great Idea!
ReplyDeleteThis would TOTALLY work for me! It's simple and practical....it's going on my 'to do' list! Can't wait to make me one!
