Just cleaned your desk at the start of the year, but it’s already messy again? Fret not, Sundance has the office supplies you need for some good old-fashioned spring cleaning! Whether you’re trying to declutter and organize an entire building or just one cubicle, we’ll help you get the job done.

Start Big

Don’t focus on one drawer at a time, start big! Throw out everything you don’t need. Once you have an idea of how much is left, you can plan how to store it with a system to maintain organization.

Utilize storage cabinets to organize the items you need to keep, but don’t need to use every day. Cabinets are an essential office supply, keeping items accessible but out of the way for day-to-day operations. Filing carts are another great option for when you need your storage to be more mobile. Don’t forget the kitchen, tidy up the office snacks with specialized sorters.

Organize Your Files

Sundance has a multitude of office supplies to help you declutter your files! You probably don’t need to keep every scrap of paper, but you’ll want to know everything you DO keep is safe and secure. Label your folders to make them easy to identify later and store them in Bankers Boxes. Strong and sturdy, these are a Sundance favorite for stacking files away in storage.

To make less of a paper mess, try condensing your notes onto marker boards. Use large calendar style boards to track your schedule or try smaller desk boards for note taking.

Label, Label, Label

Use smart labeling to make sure your organization system stays in place. There are MANY office supplies dedicated to labeling for a reason! Labels allow you and your staff to quickly identify what items are, as well as where to sort new items into your storage. Label makers are a guaranteed way to keep your labeling consistent and legible. Have no fear of the warehouse manager who scrawls like a doctor. Whether you print them, stick them, or write them – label them!

Do you need labels for your file folders, but you’re not sure where to start? Don’t worry, we’ll walk you through the process step by step so that you can create the file folder labels that are right for you. With Avery, you have options that help you easily make labels to fit your exact need.

Plan Your Filing System

You likely already have a filing system in mind, but make sure you know exactly how your file folders will be organized before purchasing your labels. Take a step back and consider how many labels you need to make and how often you use them.

Do your labels need to fit multiple lines of text? Would it be better if they were organized into categories? Make a quick chart of your file folder system and see if color-coding, different textures, or adding icons would make your workflow easier.

Before you finalize the structure of your file folder label system, also think ahead and imagine how well your plan will adapt to your future needs.

Measure the File Folder Tab

Once you know how you’ll organize your filing system, it’s time for the next step: finding the right label size. Most file folder tabs will fit a standard 2/3″ x 3-7/16″ label but it’s always a good idea to grab a ruler and double-check. Some folders may be designed to fit a larger 15/16″ x 3-7/16″ label which provides extra space for printing.

Shop all Avery label options to choose the right one for your needs.

Choose Your Label Material

Standard, classic white labels are a reliable choice that works for any project. Most of the white label material used in Avery labels also includes TrueBlock® technology which lets you easily reuse old folders by completely obscuring the print underneath the label. However, there are many other material types to keep in mind that can also help with your file folder organization.

• Clear file folder labels have a shiny finish and virtually disappear when applied.
• Colored file folder labels feature a strip of preprinted color across the top of the label that can help you quickly sort through your folders.
• Eco-friendly file folder labels are made with recycled material.
• Removable file folder labels are perfect if you are constantly reusing folders.
• Printable file folder labels allow you to print directly on the label, for crisp and clear text on any folder.

Find the Correct Template

If you chose a printable label, you’ll need the correct template. The easiest way to find templates for Avery file folder labels is by searching by product number on their site. The product number is on the front of the packaging or on the sheet of labels as well. You can also choose a template based on your label’s size, or you can download file label templates compatible with Microsoft Word, Adobe Photoshop, Apple Pages, and more.

You can also personalize your labels with Avery’s free Design & Print Online software. It provides blank and predesigned templates that you can personalize with text and images. You can also import data from spreadsheets, create sequential numbers, and much more.

Print Your File Folder Labels

Once you’re ready to print, check your printer settings for the best results. Make sure your printer is set for the right sheet size and that the paper type is set to labels.

Confirm that you’re printing at “Actual Size” (or 100% scale) and that you don’t have it on “resize to fit the sheet”. We recommend printing on a blank sheet of paper first to make sure everything aligns and scales correctly. If your test print looks good then you’re ready to start printing your file folder labels.

Designed for both form and function, these calendars come in many varieties to fit your needs and help you stay on track!

Seamless Integration of Style and Functionality

While functionality is paramount when it comes to calendars, there’s no reason why organization can’t be stylish. House of Doolittle and At-A-Glance calendars are designed with a wide range of styles, designs, and themes. From minimalist and elegant to vibrant and artistic, there’s a calendar to match every individual’s aesthetic preferences.

The ability to personalize your organizational tool adds a touch of excitement to your planning routine. Instead of a mundane and utilitarian calendar, you’re greeted by a visually pleasing arrangement of colors, patterns, and images that reflect your unique taste. This infusion of style not only makes the process of planning more enjoyable but, also encourages you to engage with your calendar regularly.

Several Format Options to Fit Your Needs

• Desk Pads: Desk pad calendars feature a large flat writing surface that lays on the desk. These pads often include reinforced corners for durability. This style provides ample space for writing and is often used in office settings.
• Wall Calendar: A standard calendar! Top bound, these calendars flip to each month with a different image on each page. Can be hung on the wall.
• Tent Calendars: Similar to wall calendars, tent calendars flip each month to a new image. Small and compact, these calendars form a self-standing tent to fit on any desk top.
• Planners: These journal style calendars feature plenty of space to plan your week day by day. After one page showing the month in a standard grid format, each week or day gets its own page. Planners often include appointment time slots to help plan hour by hour!
• Laminated Wall Planners: These large planners display the year in one quick glance. Attach them to the wall and use a water-soluble marker to make notes and plan ahead. Simply wipe off to reschedule.

When choosing a calendar style, consider your space, needs, and personal preferences. Whether you prefer a decorative calendar, a space-saving option, or a calendar that provides hour by hour planning, there’s a style that suits you!

Digital vs. Physical: The Tangible Appeal

In an era dominated by digital solutions, the tactile experience of using a physical calendar offers a refreshing change. Our calendars provide a tangible way to engage with your schedule. The act of physically writing down appointments and events can reinforce memory retention and help you develop a deeper connection with your plans.

Furthermore, the absence of notifications and pop-ups from digital devices minimizes distractions, allowing you to focus solely on your calendar during planning sessions. This undivided attention can lead to more thoughtful scheduling and a greater sense of control over your time.

Tips for Maximizing the Efficiency of Your Calendar

• Color Code: Use different colors to categorize various aspects of your schedule. Assign colors to different categories of work tasks, meetings, personal appointments, and more. This makes it easier to identify different commitments at a glance.
• Weekly Reviews: Dedicate a few minutes each week to review and update your calendar. Cross out completed tasks, add new ones, and ensure that upcoming events are accurately recorded.
• Reminders: While physical calendars lack automatic reminders, you can set up your own reminder system. Use sticky notes or bold markers to draw attention to impending deadlines.
• Celebrate Achievements: When you complete a task or attend an event, take a moment to cross it off or place a checkmark. This simple act of acknowledgment can boost your motivation and sense of accomplishment.

Stay on Track with Sundance

House of Doolittle and At-A-Glance calendars combine visual organization with style, providing users with an effective and aesthetically pleasing way to manage their schedules. In a world where time management is crucial, these calendars offer a tangible and engaging method to stay on top of your commitments.
