I love this idea. Especially the part about when it’s full, you gotta purge because this is the only allotted space! :)

A fabulous idea. I put most of mine into a binder and into sheet protectors (or whatever they’re called) but haven’t gone through them in a while.

I loved this idea! I’ve pulled magazine articles forever, but tend to put them in my regular files. Having one separate bin for magazine articles is a great idea - thanks :-)

I’ve been clipping magazine articles since the 70s and one of my favorite things to do on Winter evenings is to pull out a file at a time and read old favorites.

It’s like compiling your own favorite magazine!

I love the idea about putting all of the files in their own file container, never thought of that. Mine are in “my” file drawer in the family’s big file cabinet.

Now this is something that I’ve always thought about doing, but never have! Thanks for the reminder!

I too pull out the articles, but sadly mine are VERY unorganized. They are piled in a box. This is a great idea, and I happen to hace a spare file like this…weekend project perhaps? LOL:-)

What a great idea! My hubby goes nuts because I have stacks of mags laying around that there is an article or something I want to keep! Now why didn’t I think of this??

I do the same thing - I keep them in my filing cabinet. It has come in very handy.

What a great idea! I do the same thing with magazines, but haven’t ever dedicated a space to them. So I have pages just floating around with the rest of my paperwork. Thanks for the great idea!

I’m starting to scan everything now. It’s much easier. Even things like maps to my doctors office they mail out and everything. Easier to keep in one place, just keep my computer backed up.

I’m even in the process of scanning all my childhood pics (my mom took trillions) and then boxing the origionals up so that I can still view them without lugging those trillions of albums out!

If I were a scrapbooker I would SO be into digital scrapbooking!
