I created the most convient way to find your take out menus. It is soooo much easier than sifting through a junk drawer looking for that pizza menu or the restaurant you went to and loved but forgot the name of. I used my Cricut to organize all of my Menus.
I sorted all of the menus and put them in each folder. I cut out labels for each folder to say what type of menus are stored in each folder. I cut it out in black vinyl. I also keep a pad of paper and pen in the front pocket of the 3 ring binder to take down our orders. I keep our orders from our favorite restaurants so I remember what we like to order and what the total is.
I got the 3 ring binder and the velcro closure binder pocket inserts from an office supply store. You can also use the zipper closure binder pocket inserts.
Great gift idea!!! I made two of these for my sons and when my oldest moved last year I drove around his new neighborhood gathering menus to add to his menu folder.
great idea! love the envelope storage!

I don't think you have enough inks LOL.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea.
I like your menu organizing idea.
ReplyDeleteBut I'm lazier tha n you!Let me share the technique we use. Our menus are stored in an old giant accordion folder that I inherited from my mom's home office. Each section is labled with the cuisine in alpha order. We keep the folder it on a tiny little shelf next to the fridge. It's big ewnough to stand up on it's own.
We only order out about 1-2 times a month.
Your idea about making gifts is very thoughtful.
