Reminder Binder

Special birthdays and anniversaries often slip up on me, and too often slip right past! To help me remember to send cards and notes on these important occasions, I made a reminder binder. I bought an inexpensive three-ring binder and inserted twelve pocket dividers, one for each month of the year. Then I listed each month’s birthdays and anniversaries on the appropriate pocket. I stocked the pockets with cards, envelopes, and stamps.

Covering the binder with pretty fabric makes the reminder binder a favorite gift for family members, too. Denise Wright, Farmington, Missouri
