Dividers

Stickers on the backs of the dividers that are maps of parks. There are also removable stickers on the bottom of all dividers with the date we will be in the park. I made these with the intention of moving them around as needed.

[QUOTE=kmartin555;33128613][FONT="Century Gothic"][COLOR="Indigo"][SIZE="3"]Here is my Disney Trip Binder! My family thinks I am crazy, so it is good to know that there are people like you guys on the DIS that understand!

I couldn't remember whose binders I looked at (I looked at about a million!) but I wanted to find this post since I got so many ideas from it, and wanted to say THANKS!

Here's the front:

Yea! I love it- you may have seen mine, it's similar! It was so handy on our last trip- now I am waitning for ride max to open up November so I can redo ours and update it into our binder for the Nov. trip!
Enjoy!

oooh! I should do that! I tend to obsessively plan my Disney trips. It gives me something to do when my homework's all done. And it's fun! Thanks for giving me an idea! :D

thank you so much you just gave me a new purpose for my old leather franklin covey planner felt terrible to toss it because it cost so much and it was so usefull for so long but now it has new life =)

palmettocharm · 09-24-2009, 02:31 PM

I love all of these ideas!

floridascgirl · 09-24-2009, 08:20 PM

Shannalee,
I know this is a silly question, but what program do you use to design your dividers, etc...? Is it Microsoft Publisher or something much fancier? I would love to do my own, but I'm not sure where to begin. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Kurby · 10-14-2009, 08:00 PM

fantastic ideas here.

i've got 2 years to plan our next trip - better get started LOL

Before I found this thread I thought I was the only OCD trip planner. I'm so glad to see I'm not the only one. I started my planning binder in a small 1/2" three ring binder but it had already graduated up to a large 2" - three ring binder.

Ya'll have given me some great ideas to decorate it up. We are still 10mths out from our trip but this is my first time to visit the mouse and my family already thinks I'm going over-board. I just have to laugh and tell them that I didn't hear any one complaining on our last vacation that I OCDed over...lol.

Once I get it decorated some I'll post some pictures here. Thank you all for the great ideas. I'm so excited I could just run out to wally world tonight

if it were not after midnight...lol.

Here is what I came up with and I am sure I will add to it. I am more concerned about my ADRs right now to worry about anything else!!

Using the small 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 binder.

I will break this down into two posts. The first will be the spreadsheets I created, then the dividers.

How did you make your spreadsheets and table charts? That looks so great..I also starteda vacation binder..not as nice as yours and I am jealous how nice everyones are...thanks for sharing and inspiring me to "fix" mine up..LOL

nicolepdonnelly · 10-22-2009, 02:00 PM

Yes please tell us how you made it- what program
TIA

WyldLynx · 10-24-2009, 12:27 AM

Here is what I have slowly been working on little by little

Now my dividers

WyldLynx · 10-24-2009, 12:37 AM

I've also placed 4x6 photo album sheets so that I can place specific info on 4x6 index cards. Then I can leave the book at the hotel and pull out just the cards I need for that day.

Yes my family knows I'm nuts but oh well I'm planning this so far in advance that I have to play around with something in the mean time.
