Blue Prize!

It's another BLUE MONDAY, hosted by Smiling Sally! There are lots of bloggers showing off their blues, so stop by and check them out, and think about joining in next week.

I have an awesome blue item to show you this week. I won it as a giveaway through One Little Bird, a great blog that features etsy shops and advice. This is a very unique binder from Crown Bindery. Instead of having a thick spine, the sections are held together with rings, so you can buy larger or smaller rings depending on what you are binding. A Triple Crown Binder is four thick and sturdy laminated pages with a different coordinating pattern on each side. Because they are individual, you can choose what patterns are on the cover, back, and separating in the middle. I am just showing you my 4 favorites. Coordinating pocket folders can be purchased for the binder also. Besides these standard-size binders, Crown Bindery has a variety of sizes of journals and notepads.I am going to use mine to keep my grade book once I return to the classroom. The awesome patterns will make all the other teachers jealous! I'm sure you can guess that I got to pick out my own binder, and went with my current favorite combination, browns and blues. I was ecstatic at the paisleys and argyle, which are two of my all-time favorite patterns.I was also impressed with how nicely the whole thing was packaged, with the rings in a little bag hung over a ribbon that held the whole packet together. When it's time for back to school or teacher gifts, think about Crown Bindery.
