I first saw the idea to print on post-it notes on Kristen's blog "Inkablinka".... (here). It got me thinking it would be fun to make little post-it note handouts for various reasons. I'm in the process of making Sunday School handouts for 2012 for the 12/13 year old's using post-it notes. I created a few templates that I thought I would share....in case you'd like to make your own. 3 x 3 Template - Click here 2 x 1.5 template - Click hereSTEP 1 - Open your file and print it BEFORE you start working on the file. STEP 2 - Keep the same file open and type your message or notes in the first box.

STEP 3 - Before you print, put a post it note on each box of your template. STEP 4 - Finished! Let's say you've printed a set of notes as a reminder for an activity, choir practice, etc. Don't forget template 1 - [doc] [docx] Don't forget template 2 - [doc] [docx] Don't forget template 3 - [doc] [docx] Don't forget template 4 - [doc] [docx] You Asked: Organizing Cords. A little bird told me that I should do an "Organizing Cords" post.... so happy day because it's here! However, I didn't always think happy thoughts about cords.

In fact, when Emily mentioned to me that I was getting quite a few questions on the subject, I hung my head a bit.... I knew where my cords were, so I guess I get a point for that, but they really weren't organized. They lived in some stacked media boxes on a shelf by my computer: But open those boxes and you would see a jumbled mess of cords, all webbed together. What cord did what? So I emptied the contents of the boxes onto the table - I wish this was an exaggeration to make a great before and after story, but it's 100% what I was dealing with!

I also gathered all the cords that were around the house that weren't originally in the box, to take inventory and make sure we weren't keeping any that we no longer used or needed. Since cords can be a bit hard to tame, I turned to these Q Knot Reusable Cable Ties: Pretty cute eh?
