After attending a friend’s baby shower this past weekend, I found a new use for one of C-Line’s Zip ‘N Go Reusable Envelope. This event was complete with all the traditional things you typically have at showers. There were some games, good food and lots of presents.

As one of the mom-to-be’s good friends, I helped out during the gift portion of the shower by writing down what people bought. My friend handed me the shower cards, receipts and gifts cards to hold on to. Things became a little chaotic, making it hard to manage all the items she was giving me while tracking the gifts.

In the past, I have used project folders as a way to organize documents that I am currently working on. The folders will typically store information for active projects, which I general will keep on my desktop. Throughout the office, many C-Line employees take the same approach.

Recently, I have had to refer back to many older files, which appear to be less organized then I would have liked. This ends up creating time for me as I flip through all the documents, and attempt to recall where the information is that I am looking for.

It is no secret that everyone budgets their money differently. Some people make a plan at the beginning of the year, and track their expenses electronically to ensure they are complying with their budget. While others stick to the traditional balancing of the checkbook to ensure that their accounts are up-to-date.

The bottom line is that everyone has a different approach to how they manage their finances. One couple that I know has decided to do away with using electronic debit or credit card. Instead, everything is paid in cash, and they utilize C-Line’s Plaid Coupon File to keep them organized.

It seems like at the beginning of every school year, we hear of all different ways teachers are using our products in the classroom. Some use them to benefit the students in their studies, and others use them to stay organized in the classroom.

Recently, I was contacted by an elementary school teacher who wanted to explain her use of the Wooden Name Badge Holder. Traditionally, this item is used at events and trade shows to display badge holders. This teacher, however, used it in a slightly different way for her classroom.
