DIY Money and Bill Organizer

Let me share with you a simple project that could help you put a little order in your budgeting chores. This actually came out as my very first article for Yahoo! She. 
Now would you believe that the idea for this project is from my husband? No, he isn't even close be being "crafty" or "artsy" but he knows a thing or two about keeping the budget in check with his kuripot ways.    


For this project all you’ll need are the following:

Several pieces of used mail envelopes
 Glue or double-sided tape
Board paper or any sturdy paper material such as magazine covers, old calendars, posters, etc.

Step 1: Cut the flaps off the envelopes
 

Step 2: Arrange envelopes over the other and glue or tape together
 

Step 3: Fold a piece of board paper in such a way that it encloses the envelopes inside

 
Step 4: Glue or tape onto the envelopes.
 

 Step 5: Make little labeling tabs by folding in half small pieces of blank paper and attaching them with glue to the individual envelopes
