DIY School Artwork Binder

artwork binder

The school year is in full swing now and with that comes all of the forms, book orders, and the always precious artwork.  What to do with it all?  A couple of years ago, when my oldest started 2 year old preschool, I knew I was going to want to keep every single piece of artwork.  Of course I did! (But don’t worry, I really didn’t.) I mean, this was my first baby and everything he did was basically a masterpiece.  Maybe more of a Picasso than anything else, but still! However, I’m also someone who doesn’t like clutter.  So I made a special artwork binder to save some of my favorites and, of course, anything with his sweet little hand or foot print.

All I did was take each piece and place it in a protector.  I made sure to do this each week to prevent a pile up. If something is too big for a protector, cut it down or use a three hole punch and put it straight into the binder. This helps to eliminate any clutter that could occur from placing them in a box or forgotten in the file cabinet.

Of course, no binder is complete without a great cover! I was like this in school too, my favorite part of getting a new binder was creating my cover. The possibilities were endless!  I used a photo editing software to created my cover.

This is probably my favorite page of his about me book. It’s so Gavin!
