Anyone else have a love affair with office supplies? Ahhhhh... a well-organized space! [Insert dreamy sigh] The only thing I disliked was figuring out the Avery templates to print my file folder tabs. It took me time to find the right template, and sometimes it would get messed up in the printing process or I changed my mind about the titles I wanted on the labels. It was never easy.
I decided to make my own. I spent a little time experimenting with font and size. I chose a simple black background with white font but it can be customized to your liking! My favorite part is the font can be larger than what can fit on typical tabs and there is no need to wedge the paper into those stiff plastic tab holders. Without fail, it seemed the corners would inevitably get bent or the paper would crumple when I tried to get them into those plastic tabs. Here's my solution.
