    I think for what you do working on paper is a lot easier than using a tablet... but what you can do is scan your paperwork into the computer after the the job is finished. You could keep the files in a different location or just shred them. Having a paper copy is nice and for some hard to let go of but keeping boxes of files can be so over whelming.
    I love this tab version. You're right, buying tabs can be so expensive for something so simple lol. My desk is need of this kind of attention at the moment so thank you for the ideas and the push in the right direction :D

    I like to use file folders for dividers for my binders. You can cut them to the size that works best, punch holes in them (I put packing tape across to reinforce them). They are sturdier than typical dividers, super inexpensive and you can write all over them.

I have to write down everything I am going to do or comes to me as an idea I may want to explore. I make list (and put a lot on my calendar; they help me "keep on tract" (when I follow this).

    Thank you so much for your work on TH-cam.
    For one, it fits to me because I too love crafting and having the supplies I need for it.
    Secondly it helps me feel a little less like a failure. I know everyone has to work on themselves, but I'm really having a hard time with everything in the house, since my husband and I both suffer from mental health conditions that drain us and make it so hard to get organized...
    Thirdly, it gives helpful tips and inspirations abd again, it feels so nice 'being taught' by a fellow crafter who knows a crafter's weaknesses in that field ;)
    And forth(ly?), your calm voice/personality/explanation also helps just being more confident in myself, kinda like a friend or a mother talking lovingly is giving you comfort. I wish you all the best!

    I print things out, too. Even my online classes. Then I have a Manila folder for each thing. Online class, Theater information, Reading & Language information, others as needed. If I need them later, I will put them in binders. If I don't need them, I recycle the paper and put a blank folder label and put it in my empty folders section.

      My 8 letter tray tower is actually full of thin boxes that fill the size of the tray. Except one shelf, holding a lazy susan & tiny jars of supplies. Another is a rectangular candy tin from peppermint bark (washi tape)
      Right now the boxes contain craft supplies or unfinished projects. But it makes accessing the products inside easier because I don't have to move a stack of containers to get to the bottom one. I just pull it out from its shelf.
      (Dress shirt size gift boxes might fit. The fancy paper covered boxes from craft stores with the magnetic flap in all sizes, also make one size that fits nicely.
      Mine were flip flop boxes a store was tossing out. It's kinda accidental storage, the trays were tossed out by a dr office remodel. I planned to toss all of it when I move, but it's so functional I'm having a hard time. I decoupaged most of the boxes. For an up-cycled project it looks great & is very functional.

Each one has a sleeve in a couple D ring binders. One for appliences both large and small. The large house systems like HVAC, water heater and outside stuff (garage and yard) in another binder. Boy they come in handy when repairs or replacements are needed.

    Thanks so much for making this video! It feels like you are in my head...I think of something, and shortly thereafter you make a great video on how to do it. Keep them coming, you can see we all appreciate them and you as well. I LOVE binders for organizing. Really like using sheet protectors as dividers. I too feel the “need” to touch/hand write some things. Seems to mentally “stick” a lot better. I also use a binder for medical...includes doctors orders, medications prescribed/taking (and when), doctor’s address info and if new doc., short info on why I am seeing. I can easily carry to a new doctor and share any relevant info by turning pages. Also works for dentist, etc. It can save time, and give valuable info to emergency personnel if you are unable to verbally provide it. TFS (Sims)

    affordability & aesthetics
    customizable
    efficiency
    simplicity
    I'm a tactile person too and need to see a good amount of my stuff in my creative/business space. Concealed areas are fine for some things but day-to-day and/or color (like markers, cardstock, etc.) I like visible. My only variation in the binder usage is bills, need to review, need to respond categories - I use wall pockets for those.

    You are not alone in wanting to do bills and important things on paper. I remember so much better when I write things down, and I find that I actually set aside real time in the schedule for doing those things. Otherwise, im constantly doing them on the fly as I sit ina doctor's office or whatever and I am always second guessing whether I actually did the thing or not. Plus, I find having paper clutter super annoying, so I leave anything that is high priority sitting somewhere it's really gonna bug me until I clear it out.

    Great video. I am also a paper and pen person. It's refreshing to see real life crazy instead of perfect settings all the time. I stack and lose papers and then organize them for more stacks again. Have tried all sorts of tricks but haven't found a permanent solution to paper piles yet. Am going to try this system again.

    Can cardstock go through the printer?

    • @TheCraftyOrganizer
      @TheCraftyOrganizer  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Oats!!!! I knew you'd like this video 🌻 Standard cardstock can go through printers that feed straight through. I am not sure how to explain it... But some have a bottom feeder and it has to bend/turn in the machine to get printed. That type of machine should NOT have cardstock fed through. But if you have the type that has a side or top loading paper tray and it pulls and prints with no turns/bends.... it should work perfectly! Does that make sense???

    I tidied up my desk area today too. It's in my Ladies' Parlor Art Studio so no bills or business stuff anymore. I'm retired. It got a bit messy while I was doing a few paining projects.
    I have dozens of binders. I use them in my Art Studio for color charts of mediums, to protect color and paintings, and in my sewing/craft room for beads and other small items. I also made up a small one to keep track of hubby's recipes since he does most of the cooking.

Granted before they came with repositionable tapes, we had to keep a roll of masking tape on the changing table so as not to have to toss holey diapers. He was used to pins. He also cleans, does laundry, and all the guy stuff too. 40 years and it still blows me away how blessed I am.

      The method your using seems expensive/counterproductive/you need to keep ALLOT of clutter/crap, to do it this way, so you need, paper,folders,dividers,notebooks,printers,ink,stamps envelopes, TIME/no E-mail/PDFs/servers.
      More info:
      Tablets/Laptops/desktops/a phone, is the solution lol, if you need a stylus get one, as well lol, not NECESSARILY needed, but, it MAY make you feel better.
      Storing this much paper/any paper, seems counterproductive, thats what storage drives are for, burn it all/well the responsible thing to do, is shred them and then recycle them, but /IF you need to scan it all, into a computer, back things up though/on flash drives/external hardrives and so on, also ALL OF THIS, CAN BE STORED ON YOUR PHONE/in one TINY device.
      Also NOW DAYS, you can just start typing what your looking for, in a search box, and it will just pop, right up/no more annoying days of Windows 95/XP/Vista, those type search systems, are a thing of the past, luckily.
      Also ALL of those manuals have PDFs, I have those on my phone/I've backed those up as well, you can just search for them online, they are easy to find too.
      Also notes can be taken on your phone/and all of your notes/info you need, will ALWAYS be with you as well.
      Also you can carrie tons and tons of books, IF they are digital/PDFs, same with music, granted now we MOSTLY stream music, with Pandora/Spotify.
      LOL your acting like an old person lol
      Sentimental things are different, but the rest is a waste of time and space.
      Some more examples, of how we live in a digital world.
      Also ALLOT of things can't even be purchased, with out digital/EVERYTHING can't be purchased with cash. MEANING COD/POD, isn't even a thing anymore/DEFINITELY not available for everything/its not used, like it used to be.
      Cash is helpful, to avoid paying tax though, under the table jobs and also for survival/when systems are down, but sales tax is MOST LIKELY going to be an ISSUE REGARDLESS, UNLESS, MAYBE, IF you have access to a military base/some other way to avoid SOME tax.
      I know I keep ALLOT of cash in my safe,along with physical books,blurays and so on, but I also keep/use digital items, MOST of the time, such as PDFs,Digital movies,games and music.
      Keeping birth certificates/social security cards and pictures, of everyone in your family, SHOULD suffice, for the JUST IN CASE, but even your license, now days, can be renewed, through an app.
      Anyway physical paper, is becoming less and less needed.
      It doesn't surprise me though, that EVERYTHING'S going digital/Sears,Kmart,Hifi buy,Sports authority, Toys R Us and SOON GameStop, ALREADY figured this out, the hard way, but they did FINALLY figure this out.
      Walmarts figuring this out as well/using doordash/having memberships/monthly services, that allow you to get unlimited deliveries, Walmart stores are KIND OF turning into warehouses.
      Anyway we now have hardrives,SSDs,Flashdrives, servers, no need for MASSIVE filing cabinets, ANYMORE, nor massive calculators,paper calendars,paper, envelopes, for paper/things that can be sent by/via E-mail, no need for, stamps,printers,ink, checks and so on, ALL of these things, are obsolete/they are going away.
      Now we can just log into the server, vs having to take/go get that one piece of paper, that is miles away/we also use e-mail vs USPS.
      Also we use debit/credit cards now vs checks, we don't get our bills mailed to us anymore/we have auto pay/we pay through apps. We bank through apps now vs through physical banks, we do on OCCASION, use ATMS, but even checks can be deposited, by taking a pic of them, through an app,direct deposit is available, ANYWAY we now do things MUCH more simply/efficiently/effectively.
      This is probably WRONG, but I burn all the paper I receive, wrong as in, recycling, is what you/we should do, but honestly, I think physical mail, FROM COMPANIES, SHOULD BE BANNED, individuals sending each other a Bithday/Christmas card, is okay, but other JUNK MAIL, should not be sent to people.
      Atleast with email, MOST things, get sent directly, to the spam folder/box, also what gets through, CAN BE BLOCKED, MANUALLY, AND ITS NOT REALLY REAL/it has no consequence, other than bandwith.
      Honestly ALL trash services SHOULD be required, to recycle/all trash facilities, SHOULD HAVE a SORTER/SOMETHING/a machine that automatically sorts the trash/it gets dumped in and then its sorted.
      Anyway paper is a waste of time and space, especially when everything can be stored on storage devices and easily emailed/found, when need be.
      Something you can invest in/things that are helpful, NOW that you've gotten rit of all the paper, is more monitors.
      When I work, I use 3 monitors/I have two 42inch monitors and one 27inch monitor, in every setup I have, but being able to see more on screen, is really helpful, when working/getting things done.
