Last year l chose a cheap A5 binder from Officeworks for my OLW album. Although it wasn’t very fancy, it worked perfectly. What l loved most about it was how portable the album became. Last year l found it really useful to regularly look through my album and reflect on my journey. Because l was only using an A5 album l could easily read it in bed or carry it with me, especially when l travelled for work.
This year l wanted something prettier, but of a similar size and came
across Simple Stories 6x8 Snap Binder. I ordered the blue teal version from CraftOnline, it arrived the other week.

I’m so happy with it. Good
price, stylish and comes with a number of cardstock pages, cardboard dividers
and plastic sleaves. I’m looking forward
to having a really nice album that suits my needs for this class.
I've been having fun with the prompt for February and hope to post about my vision board soon. I love how it turned out !

This is too funny, yesterday I saw that exact same binder in a local scrap store. I picked it up and thought, umm I wonder how I could use this and because I could not come up with an answer, I put in back. I do not normally participate in O.L.W. and only because on my birthday each year, I pose a question to myself to ponder on throughout the year. This year I wanted to be part of all the online/blog O.L.W. activity, although I did not sign up for Ali's wonderful course (tight dollars). I found a way to incorporate O.L.W. with my birthday question, although my O.L.W. came late to me - Stretch. I look forward to seeing how your new Snap binder becomes your resting place for Your One Little Word.
ReplyDeleteWhat a coincidence!
DeleteI really do love the Snap Binder and l can see that it would be useful if you wanted to document a short holiday or it could be perfect for a December Daily project.
Stretch is a great word Mary-Lou. Good luck with your word this year.
