The final product!

What you need:

Thumbtacks (with a thick-ish plastic handle preferably)

3  Desk File Folders (no pockets, this is very important)

A hole puncher

A marker/pen/pencil (optional)

Step one: Buy Folders

Mine were in a three pack in the dollar section at Target. Make sure your folders are pocket-less and are not so strong to the point where a tack could not push through it. A slick paper folder is probably a happy medium.

Step two: Poke a hole in the back flap of the folder

Poke a hole with the tack in the very center top on the back half of the folder. Don’t let any tabs trick you. Always make the hole top center or the folder will not hang evenly and all your papers will fall out.

Step three:  Hole punch the front flap

Punch your hole in the same spot as where your tack hole was (top center), only punch it on the front facing flap. (not the one there is already a tack hole in)  If you’d like to mark where to punch the whole you may.

Step four:  Use a tack to hang your folder

Make sure to hang it into the wall using the first smaller whole you created.

Step five: Use your larger front flap whole and pull the plastic part of the tack through

This secures the folder shut so you can put you papers in it.

Step six:  Repeat steps 1-5 on all your other folders to your pleasing
