I trimmed down the suggestions since it was starting to look like a first draft of 'War and Peace', so hopefully soon.

I really enjoyed reading it, especially your tips on writing significant dates on white cardboard, backing up your planner with your phone's camera, and crafting a bound volume for the year. I will be borrowing those ideas for my own filofax :) Thank you for sharing all of these great ideas!

Sorry, no. Yes I do try and 'keep it simple' and I think that 'keep it simple' would be a very loud chorus here at Philofaxy. I've really enjoyed David Popely's posts on GTD and I think that the GTD system is perhaps the simplicity of thought, task, accomplish that I strive for.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16171744967438105373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-47036588584410485882015-08-10T09:46:54.689-04:002015-08-10T09:46:54.689-04:00I love the idea of indexing envelopes with receipt...I love the idea of indexing envelopes with receipt information inside, but OH the hack of making divider a little wider so the tabs stick out far enough to have sub-tabs behind. I use top tabs for sub-sections, but I like the fact that everything is on one side.

You have inspired me to make some changes to my own system, you have simple ideas that can work well for myself and my planning. Do you have a blog or social media that I could follow to keep up with your ideas?

The tip about using cardboard separators helps the migration process too! Each binder has its advantages but none of them is perfect. I suspect I'll end up asking the artisans at Van Der Spek to make a custom version featuring bits Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16171744967438105373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-7489313936028358032015-08-10T01:41:25.085-04:002015-08-10T01:41:25.085-04:00Hi Carla, Yes there are some delightful finds, and...Hi Carla, Yes there are some delightful finds, and whilst I'm not a 'decorate your Filo' sort of user, I really enjoy the different colours and textures that I end up with.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16171744967438105373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-55032359633771831222015-08-10T01:16:05.162-04:002015-08-10T01:16:05.162-04:00Which make and model of binder are you using here,...Which make and model of binder are you using here, Amanda?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10541238627141626564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18497333.post-77233608384265854282015-08-10T00:31:40.966-04:002015-08-10T00:31:40.966-04:00Hi Amanda, I too enjoy scouring through thrift st...Hi Amanda, I too enjoy scouring through thrift stores for interesting papers to turn into inserts.
