Organizing with Fabric Wrapped Binders

Back when school started {eons ago right?!}, our house was flooded with paperwork and I created artwork binders for each of our kids.  Well, plain binders are pretty ugly and boring sitting on our a bookcases in the family room.  So, I decided to turn them into fabric wrapped binders to blend in a little better while still offering the organizing I was looking for.

Kindly ignore the label still on one of them. H insisted that I leave it in there and it wasn’t a battle I was willing to fight.

This is one of the simplist projects you might ever do. 

Start with a binder {mine is a 3-inch binder

Pick out your fabric {I purchased a yard of each of my fabrics}.  Coat your binder with fabric mod podge and wrap fabric around the binder.

For the corner, I just wrapped mine like a present and secured the corner with hot glue.

Once the glue and mod ppdge dry, you are all done and the binder is ready for use.

How do you store your kid’s artwork?  Do you feel like you get 50 pages a week like we do?
