Envelope Book

Organize all your receipts for next year’s taxes by creating an envelope book. This is a good inexpensive way to organize yourself this year so when it comes time to sit down next year and do taxes you’ll be all prepared. Design Sponge has a great tutorial on how to create a book for youself. All you need are some airmail envelopes from the dollar store and binder clips.

Who says guys can’t be crafty?! Well, I came across this website called The Crochet Dude and I found this really cool crochet tie that The Crochet Dude made.
