Accordion File Addiction (first posted 9/7/06)

I picked up an accordion style folder at Target the other day. 13 pockets with alphabetical labels. It's really cute — all decoupaged with patterns and a lovely bird — plus it was on clearance, so why not? I've never used one before, but it has become indispensable. I want one for every project: kids homework and notes from school, one for each design client, decorating the girls room, receipts, etc.

So now I'm trying to source out pretty ones. I found the black one at Moleskin. The clear plastic ones at the Container Store. Some super-cute bright ones (wish they had more pockets) at See Jane Work. A high-end red fabric one from Paper Source. And BEST OF ALL, Instructions on how to decoupage your own at Waverly. The picture at waverly is not awesome so I'm not posting it, but I really want to try this.

How have I lived so long without these?
