I was thrilled to find this product. I was doing a plant show and needed to show customers what the iris plants they bought would look like. The plants were not in bloom yet but I had beautiful colored photographs which I had enlarged to and 8 X 10 size. The customers were happy to see what their plants would look like. I was pleased that I could put my photographs in a flip-book format. It was a win win situation! My sister was familiar with this product because she uses it to store her circular knitting needles in each pouch. By storing them this way she can find them easily and they don't get broken.
Purchased a new lawn mower and need to make my own reference manual and the manufacturer only provide one via their internet website. I printed the necessary pages slid them into the sleves and placed them on in a three ring 1/2 inch binder. Now we have a reference manual handy in the garage cabinet whenever I need it.
I was looking for some way to organize some papers for work that while not necessarily used every day are used often enough to warrant quick easy access. Even in this day and age of modern technology it's much more convenient and quick to look at a piece a paper that is readily accessible than to boot up a computer locate the document find the information and either write down the information you were looking for i.e. a phone number address or to print the information to have at hand! I use the bound sheet protectors pinned to a bulletin board for that quick easy access. It works great and is a much cheaper alternative to the products designed for such purpose.
I have collected so many recipes from magazines newspapers and the computer food sites over the years that I had to organize them. I wanted to be able to quickly and easily access them. Sheet protectors were a good idea because the recipe was protected from "enthusiastic" recipe preparation. However individual sheet protectors made the binder too full and the pages difficult to turn. These bound protectors are the perfect solution and streamlined the sorting. I put similar recipes in each set thus reducing the search time in addition to relieving the "bulk" issue. My husband likes these too. Now he doesn't have to eat the same old boring routine meals! :)
I bought these sheet protectors to contain and protect my recipes that came from a recipe book which came apart. I printed out the pages with my inkjet printer; this ink will be destroyed if wet. When cooking these recipes need to be kept clean so that that won't happen and they also need to be kept together so that I don't need to go looking for them in the file. At first I thought I had bought the wrong item but then realized that this way it's much better so that all the recipes are kept together as if they were still in the book. This item is perfect and I have just gone out and bought another one for a second group of recipes. It was a good choice.
