Magazine Organization

A little battle with a head cold sidelined me for a few days. I didn't even make my Sunday trip to the VofA for crying out loud. I'm surprised they didn't come looking for me!
Since I was bonding with my recliner chair I decided to do a little magazine organization and replace some of those every-which-way sticky notes. It seems like every magazine has at least one article or picture that I know I want to return to someday. This is what I came up with to help me keep track of them. Pretty simple really, I just used random scraps and tags, punched a hole and tied on a string. Then I wrote a title or something to remind me of the article and hooked them to the page with a paperclip. Easy peasy!
Even though this is posted on Wednesday I thought I'd hook up with Show and Tell Friday in case someone else could use the magazine organization tip. Be sure and check it out for lots of great ideas!
