I have been on a mission to get organized. I had started to organize my craft room a few weeks ago, but found out we will be moving soon so that room is now in boxes. But I need to do something to stop the piles of papers a clutter around the house. I came across this great system on Pinterest. (The site is having issues so I can't link to the site where I found it- sorry!)
Here is what you will need:
12 file folders -I chose pretty ones because I am more likely to use them if they are pretty!
31 plain file folders
calendar

something pretty and functional to hold everything
On your pretty folders label them January- December
On your plain folders label them 1-31
You will have your pretty folders (months) lined up in order and the plain (days) in front. Whatever month it is you will place the plain folders in the current months folder.
When you get a bill or important item that you need say in May- place in the May folder. Then you don't have to think about it again until that month! When May comes, you take your day folders and place them in that folder, then place the bills and papers in the day that you need to take care of it.
I included a calendar that will sit right next to my system and easy to jot down things that are due or important dates so everything is in sync.
This is also a great system for birthday cards!
Happy Organizing!
