Home Office: Colorful clips make organization more fun
Previously I revealed to you that I love office supplies. It is still true that I could spend half a day shopping in Office Depot.
Today I received one of their catalogs in the mail. Even though I don’t need any office supplies at the moment I could not resist thumbing through the pages to see what might be new.
Well, I am not sure if “Metallic Easy-Grip Binder Clips” are new or not, but oh they are cute. Pictured in this catalog are hot pink, yellow, mint green, blue and pink clips that do look a bit metallic. It is hard to tell from the picture.
I can think of so many ways to use these:
· Clip bills together – maybe they would be more fun to pay clipped by such pretty colors
· Clip receipts together – use a different color for each credit card account
· Clip projects or reports together – organize by color
· Keep several in a glass jar instead of candy. The colors are just as pretty without calories.
A dozen of these metallic colored binder clips are barely over two dollars. For the cost conscious, the same clips in black are under one dollar for a dozen. Would you pay double for a little color on your desk? I would definitely swing for the extra dollar.
