organizing tabs for your life.

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

One of the reasons I was thrilled to work with Avery for SocialLuxe Lounge, aside from the fact that they’re the best kind of company out there, is the fact that I’m obsessed with organization. I can’t get enough of their sticky note tabs.

When I was getting ready to head to New York, I mapped out my plan of attack and note tabbed and organized it all. See, I’m not so hot with directions. I thought I was for a long time, but as it turns out? I only know how to navigate when I have the Wasatch Mountains to guide me north/south. In Manhattan? Fugghedaboutit.

I laid out the best plans for all my favorite things to do in New York City. I Google mapped directions from the hotel, printed them all out, and note tabbed them to within an inch of their lives.

I had all the basics: thrift stores, Ghandi’s Cafe, Pinkberry, H&M. Do you see an emerging theme? Food & shopping? Hmmmmmm.

These note tabs saved my life. I have a little stack of them in my desk drawer right now and I have major plans for them. Organizing Christmas shopping lists, school projects for the kids, extracurricular activities, carpool schedules.

Man, oh man, the places we’ll go.

I need these for work. I work from home and just keep a notebook at the side of my computer where I write things down as I go. I spend a good hour going back through notes through out the week (that I can’t bill for – boo!), so I think I’ll get rid of my (non-functioning) doggie-ear method and get me some tabs. Wahoo for organization.

Brilliance.
