Help with Quotes

Post by Valrose »

I gather quotes and have them in notebooks and binders scattered all over the house. I think that there must be a better way to organize all this. Does anyone have any tips they can share??? Thanks!

I too have done that. I now purchase the blank journals at the dollar store and use them. They can sit on the book shelf just like one of the books and eventually I will have a nice section. I have also used The Day-Timer Lined Journal. The first few pages of the book is set up like an index so you can create your own table of contents as you jot your notes down.

I put them on computer and then organize them into different folders based on different criteria (humorous, Shakespeare, political, from novels etc.)

Pinterest can be used to organize quotes as well.

I am excited to try these ideas and inspired knowing other quote collectors. Thanks so much.

Not necessarily " my thang ", but I've seen ppl's fave quotes utilized as part of their decorating scheme by painting it onto the wall, above the fireplace, bedroom headboard, etc...
