Make a folder to keep all those magazine clippings and ideas.
This tutorial is from my blog: www.sewingpretty.co.uk
Hoarding magazines is a bit of a problem for me. I buy them, read them and then put them in a drawer telling myself I'll go back through them and pull out anything interesting and put it in a folder. This of course never happens and I end up with magazines everywhere! I've had several "inspiration" folders or books before but I've never kept them up to date and organised.
I love the idea of keeping an inspiration book but I want to be able to take things out and move ideas around. So I settled on a folder with plastic pockets that would be divided up into different sections. I went through the hoard of magazines and ripped out everything I liked the look of ready to go in my new folder. And here's how I made it!

Step 5
Take your first piece and glue it down onto the top of the plastic pocket right at the top. The reason we're using a glue stick instead of something stronger is so that we can change these tabs later if we want to. Its much easier to peel them off! You'll also want to make sure that the name on the tab sits past the edge of the divider, you want to be able to see it once you have all your clippings in the folder!
