I don’t know about you guys, but every year I am so surprised at how much paper clutter we seem to accumulate at the beginning of the school year! I really wanted to organize it somehow. I picked up two accordion style plastic folders and plan to use each pocket for a different subject and one for schedules, keepsakes, etc. I really wanted to make them fun and bright.
I had the opportunity to use Astrobrights cardstock and it is amazing! It is vibrant, thick and comes in 23 different colors.
I decided on the vintage color scheme. Isn’t it so pretty? I also love that the package is easy to open and everything stays all nice and neat in the plastic!
I printed out some cute labels and laminated them. They were still so pretty after I laminated them! Finally, I glued them to the front of the folder and we were good to go! This weekend I plan on working on the file labels. Baby steps!
