  Organizing Tip

Best File Folders for an Effective Paper Filing System



My paper filing system at home is made up of two kinds of file folders...
a) hanging file folders (the type with the side tabs that rest on a filing cabinet frame or in a portable file box, and can slide back and forth) and
b) manila file folders.

The hanging file folders allow you to easily finger through your filing system. The manila file folders are inserted into the hanging file folders, and will not slip to the bottom of your file drawer since they're tucked neatly inside their hanging folder.

Think of the hanging file folders as the MAJOR CATEGORIES, like 'Medical,' 'Financial,' and 'Legal.' Think of the regular manila file folders as the SUB CATEGORIES. For instance, manila file folders labeled 'prescriptions' or 'doctor visits' would sit in the hanging file folder labeled 'Medical.'

Depending on the paper-volume of any hanging file folder's category, I am able to fit between 1 to 7 manila file folders in each hanging file folder.

Using both of these types of file folders, with all of my categories clearly labeled, I never have a problem finding what I need, and the system always looks consistent and neat.

If you need additional help setting up your filing system, here's a link for My Oh-So Organized Filing System.

No doubt, Christmas, in the middle of our global pandemic, is going to be a bit different this year. And maybe you'll simplify a bit. I know I will.

Still, many of us will be busy regardless. I'll still be sending out Christmas cards and writing our family newsletter. Gifts will still be purchased and made. Holiday dinners...even if just for our immediate family...will still need to be planned. Holiday treats will be baked. Stockings will be stuffed. The tree will be trimmed. Gifts will be wrapped.

And this all needs to be organized if we want a stress-free, enjoyable, peaceful Christmas.

And I've always said, a little bit of planning can work wonders. And My Christmas Holiday Planner can help with everything you need to do. Visit:
