My new household binder project is all complete! I got the inspiration on Pinterest from
IHeartOrganizing's household project binder...My own binder needed different elements so I decided on the following tabs (so far): Calendar, Family, Blog Designs, My Blog, Finances, Meal Planning, Records. I have another binder that I keep everything for the kids (medical records, art work etc.) so I didn't want to include the kids stuff in this binder. I found this great site called
Life...Your Way (thanks again Pinterest) that offers lots of free printables for your binder. I really like them all and sure I'll use them all at some point!
I chose to go with a binder and tabs from the new Martha line at Staples (big surprise - I swear they should sponsor me with how much I talk about this stuff!) It is clean and simple...I love it.

| I was going to print my own calendar...but I really like the Martha Version at Staples. I like that it is a two-page layout and vertical - not horizontal like most calendars you print. |
The
Birthday Organizer is a free printable from
Life...Your Way I still need to add lots of birthdays but it is a start! I also really like this
Weekly Menu Plan (below)...I like that I can plan out my week and then write the grocery list in the right-hand column.
I'm sort of obsessed with these
sticky write-on tabs. They are thick and sturdy...and I love the shape. I use them at the top of my binder to track all the clients I am currently working on for blog design.

| I also really like this notepaper. I was surprised because someone gave it a bad review on Staples but I think it is perfect. Fits perfectly in my binder and I love the perforated tear-off on the right-hand side. Makes it really easy to make lists and then tear them out. |
So...there it is...I still plan on adding lots to the family and records section so I'll update as I do that...happy organizing!
