-----------------
Hello! I'm Alejandra Costello, professional organizing expert from Alejandra.tv! In this video I show you two ways to organize your files and documents in your office so you can easily find what you're looking for when you need it!
The first way to file your papers is with hanging file folders in a traditional filing cabinet. In this video, I'll show you the color-coded filing system I've used for years and highly recommend!
The second way to organize and file paperwork is with binders! In this video, I'll show you how I organize all of my binders inside and out so things are easy to find and clutter-free!
List of organizing products shown (color-coded filing system, file folders, binders, etc.) in this video can be found here: www.alejandra.tv/organize-pap...
This is part 2 of a 10 part paper clutter series on getting organized at home. You can watch the entire video series here: www.alejandra.tv/organize-pap...
Thanks for watching and happy organizing :)

*THE QUEEN IS BACK*
Welcome back! I have started a journey working from home. I now have a home office. It has been wonderful so far! Thank you for the tips. I have quite literally watched every single video you have uploaded. Ever. You look wonderfully happy and healthy. I hope you and your family are well. While my country (Australia) is burning, I sit in my home in rural Victoria doing anything I can to distract myself- what better than sort out my home office! Much love from Australia 🇦🇺
Sending prayers to your country💕
Tanya DeMillo thank you so very much Tanya, that’s really kind of you. I can’t speak for all aussies, but I know that I feel the love and support from the rest of the world. This means the world to me xxx
Sending much love to your beautiful country. From London, England. x x
Caroline Coleman thank you Caroline. You are beautiful. It’s horrendous.
sending prayers your way
I love to hear you speak, Alejandra! You are genuine and humble. God bless you!
So happy you are back. I switched over my file cabinet to Better Binders a few years back after watching your video. Love this system. So easy to keep updated and everything I need is right at hand and best of all, no clutter!!
Im so happy you're back... I got hooked on your channel as a newlywed 4 years ago when we were living on a MASSIVE house my parents kindly let me live in (borrowed) for a year... We now live on a TINY one bedroom appartment and your videos STILL help out so much. We are saving for our house and since im having a baby soon Im nesting like crazy and decluttering this tiny space. Thank you for coming back!!:)
I love the way you organized the car records by year, highlighting it at the top! Brilliant. So excited to see your new system! (Can't believe I'm early twice in a row). 💛
So glad you enjoyed that tip! Makes a difference when you go to access your documents! :) Thank you for being here, Marlene! :)
Marlene Kay I have binders for each vehicle. Life saver!!

Binders are brilliant! And so are you. Thank you for all you share for free - you are generous with your skills. I have purchased one of your programs and benefit from the advice.
So glad to know you've benefited from the advice! :) I appreciate your kind words, that means a lot. Thank you for the opportunity to support your organizing journey, Jen! :)

I have gone almost completely digital with our paperwork. I keep our passports, birth certificates and wedding certificate in a fireproof safe.
Our sentimental documents go in a folder and we have one folder each.
All other documents I scan through an app on my phone and upload to google drive. This way there are easily accessible and safe from damage. These are documents like receipts, medical records, bills, banking records, insurance details. The amount of paperwork you actually NEED to keep a hard copy of is actually very small
what a great comment!
For real!
Love your system, amazing! But you definitely can't do this in the UK. Any time you need to prove your address you need three paper documents received within the last few months, and they won't take digital.
Sorbet Ice ahh see in Australia I would just print out the digital copies and that would be acceptable. All my bills are emailed to me anyway
Exactly what i do!all that paper gives me anxiety and takes up too much space, i dont even know why im watching this video🤷🏼♀️prob just bc i like alejandra
I started watching your videos since 2015! You've taught me a lot !!!
Love seeing someone else do what I have done for years. When I was teaching, all of my school files were in binders and it made such a difference! People would ask me "can I borrow such and so paper?" and I handed it to them in about ten seconds flat or less.
Beautiful! 10 secs or less is impressive!!! Binders just feel S O M U C H E A S I E R!

I love it!!! I am setting up my home office and this suggested video was perfection.😍😍😍
i guess it is kind of randomly asking but do anybody know a good place to stream newly released movies online ?
Soooooo happy you're back! You're truly the best!
So delighted that you are back. Your organization programme s have changed my life . I purchased your PPP and it revolutionized my world . Great to have you back . Love you and your work
Great video - I am now going to consider moving to binders- thanks! I can’t wait to see the next one! Would be great to get a peek into one of the binders you are actively using.
Those binders are amazing! I’ve had mine for probably about 10 years now & they still work
Binders are an amazing way to organize. That is how I store all of my papers. :)

I love your videos. As a mom and a teacher, I feel like I'm always overloaded with papers. Thanks for the inspiration.
czcams.com/video/L0KADj3_HQI/video.html
If a teacher does it, then it must be great! 😁
Great to see you, Alejandra! I started using the Freedom Filer system years ago because of you. Thanks for the inspiration! ~Bo
Alejandra, you're a GENIUS!!! I love you and the content you provide. I pray you and your family are well!! ❤

Alejandra, everything looks so pretty. So much nicer than those cumbersome filing cabinets and easier access too! I must get started on this. Thanks for the inspiration :)
Love your idea for paint swatches, right now mine are in a pile that I need to takle!
Thank you!! :)

I do have a filing cabinet but as often as I can, I go paperless and have a PDF file of my bill (or whatever). I categorize them by year and Payee and save them to my competed and also a flash drive. I’ve been thinking about what I would do if my house burned down. Perhaps storing in a “cloud” somewhere as well... just a thought for those who want to save paper 😊

This video was so helpful thank you! I am organizing my paper clutter that got way out of hand and I am so excited to try your system, and to finally get organized!
I'm so glad to see you are back! You always have the best ideas and I LOVE my Better Binders thanks to you!
Aw, thank you!!! :) So glad to know you're enjoying your better binders! They sure are great!!! :)

Great to see you back ......we want more videos from u and your excellent ideas👌👌
Room makeovers .....color selection...... changing old things from the house and more👍
Love the binder method much better than my file cabinet. I’m going to have to try that.
YAY! It definitely feels easier! I just accessed my health binder yesterday and it was a breeze to find what I was looking for without having to shuffle through a big stack!
czcams.com/video/L0KADj3_HQI/video.html
Welcome back! Super excited to see more cool content.
czcams.com/video/L0KADj3_HQI/video.html
I get ridiculously giddy, when I see a new video pop up! So glad you’re back. 😊
Thank you, Robin!!! :) So grateful you are here!
Fantastic. I have those binders in my work office! Love them, and they have so many bright colors
czcams.com/video/L0KADj3_HQI/video.html
GREAT content again, Alejandra! Thank you !!!
Hi Alejandra, Great insight as always. Thank you for the gift of organizing😊
It's great !!!I'm sure you've put A LOT of time getting these together!!! Wow!!!
Perfect! Thank you for the tips Alejandra xoxo
I will be rewatching all of these cause I want to be the boss of my paperwork and not the other way around! I lost an important document recently, I had it in my pocket the whole time, but while I was looking for it, I was super stressed out! Never again!!
Wow, this is SO helpful, thank you Alejandra! Papers have always been tough for me, and though I finally got everything organized into a file box a few years ago, I've found that I still get stressed when it comes to putting things away as well as trying to find what I need (or remembering what certain items are for and how they relate to the folder). I think the binder system might just be the thing I need to organize papers in a detailed way while also giving myself full visibility, instead of a bunch of papers all squished into one hanging folder! 🙈
Sighing sighs of relief and anticipation now...can't wait to go through my papers to see if this will work ☺️
Loving this new series so much! Thank you! ❤️
You are welcome, Mushky!

You're very welcome! :)
Thank you so much it was very helpful
Thanks so much for the tips!!!
Can you do a segment on setting up organization and filing for business? I have a retail store and would enjoy information on how you organize business files.
I would love to know how to set up binders or file folders for our business.
czcams.com/video/L0KADj3_HQI/video.html
Wonderful!! Thank you!!
This is really helping video, thank you.
Thanks for coming back! You're my favorite vlogger! Can you provide us of the list we should bring in case of emergency?
Love how you think, I'm in the mood to switch to a binder system
Thank you sooooooooo much.
So happy you did this video I was looking to organize mine but didn’t know where to begin
Oh such great timing! :) Happy paper organizing to you, Nora! :)
Am I the only one who is in awe with Alejandra's rainbow organization system? 😍
I used to do the binder filing system 30 years ago!
I wish there were more videos! Love the paint swatch idea for binder!
I just found your videos on youtube, and I loved some of the things to said about filing systems and cabinets. I just can't seem to work without folders for example, a landscape company I keep a Folder for every year, but only 1 file, it gets quite big!
Hi! 😀 I missed your videos so much, although I have to admit that I haven't decluttered my house yet. It's one of my new year's resolution. 😉
I’m sooo glad to see you went to binders!! I’ve been using the’ put everything in a folder by month’ system... but whenever I need a statement from Macy’s or the power company... I have to GUESS which month, then dig through a stuffed folder..😏😫... no more!! So I decided to go to binders for each category. ThenI saw this video!! Yay! My question... do you use the big drawer files at all anymore? I am about to purchase ikea file drawers but won’t of not necessary!! 👍🏽👍🙏🌈 Thank you!!!
Clicked as quick as I could! 😁
:) I hope you found the video helpful!
@@HomeOrganizing oh yes! In addition to providing great ideas, your videos are very relaxing for me. Your organization makes me happy. 😁
Can anyone make out the binder categories she has on the shelves? It would give me a better idea of how to sort! Anyway thank you! You've made my current dip into organizing my house papers a lot more manageable and I feel confident about setting everything in order!
Amazing!
Love you so much ..what I did without you lol ..so glad your back and still I can't do it as good as you❤❤❤❤😂😂😢😢
That's okay! Just do it as YOU!
I'm from india love your organization😊
Thank you, Driti! :)
OMG you are back!
