Starting a major project such as remodeling can be a headache. Faced with hundreds of swatches, quotations, receipts and sketches, it can be a migraine attack waiting to happen. Before anything else, get yourself a good organizer. A plastic file folder with numerous compartments and clear sleeves will be your ultimate reference source, the one thing you will bring everywhere, from the site to the hardware to the architect’s office. Using colored tabs to divide the different papers and sheets, you have instant access to the last point of discussion with your interior designer which she wrote on a table napkin, as well as the magazine cutouts of the flooring you want to copy. Plus, you save yourself a lot of time and lost invoices.
