So these are letter sized 100% Recycled Reinforced Hanging File Folders for use with Filing cabinets that are also letter sized. The Reinforcement on these folders is on both the lower end (V point) of the folders as well as on the hanging end of the folders so they are capable of sustaining more weight within the folders themselves. For 100% recycled material they do not have the grainy feel to the texture and seem quite well made and reliable. They are nearly a perfect fit within any Filing cabinet but i can tell you in my small two drawer cabinet they are a snug fit.
As a first year teacher I'm really trying to get ahold of my organization in the classroom. One thing that I've noticed is that I needed help with organizing all my papers and paperwork for my students. A filing cabinet and a whole bundle of these hanging file folders has been an absolute life saver. Items that I normally stack on my back counter all have a place. The tables can be placed in numerous different directions to make finding papers a breeze. I definitely will be purchasing more in the future.
My goal for 2015 is to organize my craft room. Since I enjoy scrapbooking and making greeting cards my "stash" of paper is quite large. Up to now all the papers have been stacked on top of each other making it difficult to find anything. As a result I decided to get organized by grouping my paper into color families. This is where the colored hanging file folders come into play making it much easier to find just what I need. Since I have separated all the plain paper into the appropriate folders I now have to purchase more and do the same with all my various patterned paper. Everything is at my fingertips making the craft room more enjoyable to work in.
