A Pretty File Folder

I am in the need to organize my papers for my blog. I have not taken a picture of my desk to post on Tackle it Tuesday because it is way too shameful! How boring to be looking at brown file folders, yellow accordion folders, green magazine holders and blah post notes.


I popped on over to Galison to check out what they had to help organize my office. I already have their small accordion folder which I reviewed and love, organizing my coupons and gift cards. They are certainly more organized than I am! Galison has their collections categorized either by artist, theme or collection. It was here I found exactly what I was looking for, this super cute Happy Butterfly Day Collection which has the File Tote, Magazine holder, file folders and much more!

The File Tote is perfect for me to hold my papers I need quick access to and be able to carry around my house. Since I do not always work at my desk in the office, this item is a great way to keep me organized and on the go while having a great stylish look! There are 8 pockets with 16 labels available to customize.
I consider this to be my in house brief case!
WIN IT!!!
