And the Filofax Project binders are winging their way to…

I will be updating this post with each binder as it goes off to its new owner, to be used in an exciting and interesting way for a This Bug’s Life Filofax Project.

Where possible I have used extra packing materials to keep your binder safe and sound but I am hoping these envelopes allow your package to arrive in the same condition in which it left me, even if I didn’t have extra material with which to pack it. I have slipped a business card into each of the binders with my details on. I changed my name from Thompson to Carr six months ago but everything else is correct.

Red pocket Mode, going to Kate for The Travel Project. This is a brand new binder with a 2013/2014 calendar and pen. I love the Mode binders as they are pretty and durable. The grey and red colour combination is a winner.
All packed and ready to go

Brown A5 Amazona going to Paula Gibbens. This is a beautiful binder - perfect rings and pristine full leather inside.
Brown A5 Amazona going to Paula Gibbens for The Diet Project. This is a beautiful binder – perfect rings and pristine full leather inside. It is going off with two sets of A-Zs and 2 blank 1-6 dividers. One of the reasons I was very keen for Paula to do this project is that she is not only an expert on dieting (she lost 4 stone a while back) and health (she does lovely medical inserts), but she is also an expert on frugal Filofaxing. She recycles things to create very pretty inserts and dividers and so for anyone wanting to cut down on Filofax costs or Filofax on a budget.

Pocket Chino going to Heather for The Spiritual Project. This is a lovely binder and is brand new. It has a full set of inserts  and a pen but no calendar. This binder has a lovely internal design and I love the popper. It comes with care instruction cards and a Filofax mini-brochure. It will be interesting to see how it stands up to wear during the project.

The Personal Aqua Mode is going to Tara and Kanani for the Mom/Daughter project. This binder is brand new. No inserts were necessary as Tara and Kanani will be making their own (how exciting!) but I put some notepaper in anyway

They are pretty, unusual (I love the silicone straps) and very hard-wearing.

A5 Burde going to Loretta for The University Project. On second glance, this binder is not leather but is lovely. I love the ring protectors (I wish more Filofaxes had them – they only have them on their exotics and other expensive binders these days) and the popper is lovely. This binder is brand new, comes with a full set of inserts and a pen.

And ready to go to the Post Office!
Personal Aqua Mode going to Tina for The Book Project. It is going off with two sets of each of the following inserts - A-Z and 1 - 6. Sorry Tina I only had inserts with the Swedish letters on the end but it will hopefully make it more exotic!

  3. Ah, I’m so excited! I am currently at uni, so the binder will be going to my house instead as I’m not sure about parcels getting here. I will be there on the 19th though to collect it!
