Paper Projects

Happy Monday everyone! This week, it's all about paper and the different ways to make it prettier. 

Today's blah is this binder taken home 

from a seminar. 

There's a footnote at the back panel 

requesting for responsible recycling. 

It would be my pleasure! 

The inside pages include specially printed

dividers, meeting agendas & notes. 

I got myself some printed card 

stock, traditionally used for

making scrapbooks. 

I decorated the cover, spine & back 

with black & white polka dot paper

cut to size. 

I covered the dividers with 3 different 

patterns. A glue stick kept the paper 

in place and I cut around the tabs

with a pair of scissors. 

 This is what the new dividers look like.

TADA!

I'll add some lined paper, plastic pockets

and eventually label the tabs. 

I haven't determined what to use this binder for. If I were a magazine editor, I'd take it with me to the shows at Fashion Week to store invitations and take notes. If I were planning a party, I'd fill it with details like floor & seating plans, menus and photo pegs for table settings and gift bags. If I were an artist, it would be filled with poetry, sketches and ideas for an exhibit or collaboration. I just love the many possibilities!
