Today I took two of my catalogs in to have them spiral bound. This year I decided I would like to have some quick reference tabs on the side to help me find some of the items I tend to go to often but cannot find them. Since all the word sets are not in the same place and I don't always think of certain stamp sets the same way as Stampin' Up I have a difficult time finding things in the catalog. Well this year I put 7 tabs on it. My tabs are Kids Stamps, Nature, Background, Colors, Washi Tape and Ribbons, Punches and Big Shot. I think this should help me find things a little faster. My choices at the store were 5 tabs or 8 tabs. Well of course I had selected 7 tabs and could not decide what other tab to insert so I just said put the 7 in and I will have an extra to throw away. No big deal. I got the main things I wanted to be on the tabs. I also have a label maker that I put a label of Janice's copy on the front of the catalog just under the striped tin. I have 2 catalogs that are mine. I leave one by my computer and the other one stays downstairs for me to use with my customers and when I am sitting in the living room dreaming of what I am going to order or use for certain classes, etc. Because I only had 2 done the guy did them while I waited. It was great to get to take them home right away. I cannot stand not having MY catalog at my fingertips. Janice

Catalog Spiral Bound

Where did you get them done? Cost for spiral and tabs?
ReplyDeleteI did it at the Fed Ex store on Washington Ave next to Starbucks. It cost about $13 for everything. They did it while I was there. Maybe 15 minutes.
