WFMW: Instruction booklets
I used to keep all my instruction booklets in one file. Of course, over time, that file got pretty fat and messy. It was hard to find what I needed, and forget about weeding out old ones. Now I keep instruction booklets, as well as warranties, filed according to the room, or section of the house, where the appliance is used. If I use it in the kitchen, like my Kitchenaid mixer or my blender, it goes in the "Kitchen" file. Papers for outdoor equipment, like the lawnmower, go in the "Garage" file. Oh, and all of these (as well as other folders) are store in a two-drawer hanging file cabinet.

OOH, File by room. Great idea!
Great post! We have a whole file for "baby gear instructions" for aaaallll the stuff we got for baby #1. It will come in handy when/if we give anything away.
Love the idea of filing by room!!
Love this very useful idea!
I've just been sorting through booklets after the kitchen remodel. This makes good sense...
Filing by room! Genius!!
Good idea, I was just thinking about this topic. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks to everyone!
Wow that is a really good idea, I never thought of doing that. Guess what I'm going to do right now??? LOL
Great idea :)
Great idea! I can never find any of my instructions ;).
How is it that things as brilliant and simple as this so easily slip my mind? Thanks for sharing!
Good idea- and no, I don't always let me 4 year old win. What fun would that be?? :)
