Labeled Binder Clips
So I was looking through "Really Good Stuff" the other day and I came across these labeled binder clips that looked like they would help me stay organized. They were labeled the days of the week. I usually stay late on Fridays to get all my copies done for the following week, so I do not have to fight the other teachers Monday morning. I usually just paper clip all my copies and stick them in a basket. Then each day I have to dig through it to find the ones that I need for the day. No complaints really because they are already copied and done, but these clips looked like they would help a lot. The only problem was that they were like $15 per dozen which I thought was a bit much. So.... I made my own. I went to Office Depot and bought 48 binder clips. They were on sale for $1 a pack of 24. You can go to the Dollar Store I am sure and get them as well. Then I bought return address labels from Walmart and made my own labels for them. I am so excited. They only cost me like $5 total to make. I also made some that are more custom to my needs.I know it does not seem like much, but you know it is the little things that can make life a little easier :)
