Whenever we have a few extra minutes we try to do a litte organizing. Yesterday we filed. Now, while we hate to file, we love a good art project, and thats what the Brother label maker gives us. We love the old school look and feel of the brother machine... hell, we even like the teal and purple casing.
Many can attest to the thrill of loathsome files being eased into order with perfectly typed (sometimes shadowed and underlined!!) letters. Like twelve eggs in their egg carton, it is perfection. We find that it is almost a thrill to put away bank records and bill receipts, like the bold font of the label makes the task that much more accomplished.
We arent saying that putting labels on our files makes bill paying any better, just that we feel like we have more control.










I agree...labeling this way - with instant gratification - is very satisfying.
I love label makers!! Non-guilty pleasures...
Oh Man! I was just using that bad boy today! Brilliant on all counts.
Apartment Therapy, you know how we do!
Hooray!
I've had this little guy now since June 2004 and it's amazing and has lasted me through numerous filing projects and insane attempts at keeping my pad organized!
Great product!

I hate to say it, but I like the Dymo LetraTag better-- and blogged about it (plus it's on the value rack this week at Target.)
