ORGANIZATION TIP: Turn Your Magazine Clippings Into a Look Book!

Time to say goodbye to magazine hoarding. :o) Generally speaking, I'm not really that much of an organized person. However, I didn't have much choice when it came to finding a way to store and quickly reference the hundreds, if not thousands, of magazine clippings I've saved over the years referencing makeup products, fashion, decor, gardening, exercise...You name it! Creating these "Look Books" (organized by theme) was a fun process and I'm finally able to quickly find the items or articles I would previously spend hours hunting for.

Just an idea that I hope you may consider and hopefully find helpful. :o) Love you, Guys! xoxo Tracy

I love magazines. I clip pages from them before getting rid of the magazine. What a great idea! I have a fitness binder but I never thought to get a fashion look book together. Thanks again.

@luloops I'm so glad you enjoyed the vid and thanks very much for your sweet comment. I've definitely been known to hoard magazines, so when I ended up with tons of clippings, I was never able to find what I was looking for...hence, the look books. :o) They're so much fun. Thanks again! xo

You should do a fashion show with all your clothes,,,that would be so great!!!!! wait don't tell me, do you like Martha Stewart? I just love her!!!!!!!

[trakat77]

@dmitrigarcia Yep, I'm the crafty Martha Stewart girl, too. :) LOL! You have me pegged. I'll think about the fashion vid idea, although others have much better fashion channels out there. I'd feel like the pageant girl without a clue. Ha! =D

OMG!!!!!! It must be a Boulder thing!!!! I make books of my favorite things...Madonna! Meg Ryan and my boyfriend!!!!!!! Hilarious!!!!!

[trakat77]

@dmitrigarcia Sorry for the late reply. That's so funny that you make these books, too. They're so much fun to flip though...It's having all of your favorite things & pictures all in one place. I never get tired of looking through them. :o)

I also have tons of fashion magazines (also Romantic Homes and Victorian Homes mags). I actually have that pink strappy sandal shown at 6:17. What do you use to cut  the pictures out so neatly? The pictures are like beautiful artwork to me, so I love your idea.

that's a very good idea... did you think of making one for beauty make up looks? That would be really great... with the different looks, collections and swatches.

This is a great idea! I have so many magazines that I need to go through. I can see some look books in my future! :)
