Turn planners into scrapbooks

Before electronic tablets and smartphones, everyone kept track of their days and weeks and months in some kind of daily planner.

It's easy to recycle these dinosaurs into marvelous mini scrapbooks. Simply remove the daily sheets and use one as a guide to cut new blank papers for your newly recycled scrapbook. All you need is a hole punch to punch the binding holes and you have a mini scrapbook in the making.

After you fill the planner with blank scrapbook pages, it's fun to divide the pages into sections with self-adhesive tabs, available at any office supply store in nearly every color imaginable.
