I have a video for you today.. it’s a replay from yesterday, so if you caught my weekly live, you can skip the replay. I always get so many questions about my spiral bound catalog and all the tabs I put on it so I wanted to share the video with you explaining my thought process, how and why I do this, and what supplies I use.
As mentioned in the video, the main reason I like to add these tabs to my new catalog, is to help me to quickly find a set, bundle or suite (tabs across the top), or the accessory items in the back (tabs on the side). I use my catalog multiple times a day for crafting, blogging, social media posts, answering customer and team questions, etc., and I don’t like wasting time flipping through the catalog over and over. This helps me save time and be so much more efficient!
I like to use these Post-it TABS, the package says Durable – Writable – Repositionable (50 tabs). These tabs come in lots of sizes and colors so definitely buy whatever tab you like. I write on them with a fairly new black Sharpie marker. (a newer marker with a nice point is helpful).
Tip: see below.. if you have shorter subject names, you can write 2 on a tab and cut it in half.
I get my catalog spiral bound at Staples each year. Other office supply stores also offer this service. The reason I love this is that it lays flat in front of me when I’m blogging and referring to it, and I can also flip it all the way open back on itself, and it takes up half the space!!
In addition to the tabs on the top for stamps, bundles and suites, I also label the main sections in the back 1/3rd of the catalog.

Thanks so much for sharing this video. Lots of helpful tips!
Hi Patty. I know you use the Avery 4×6 passport cases for embellishments but what do you use for those embellishments that are much larger than the 4×6. I’m sure you’ve posted about this but I cannot find it so appreciate your help with this
