FRESH LOOK: Rolodex Makeover

Thursday, March 17, 2016 1:05

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

I know a Rolodex is outdated and is probably going to obsolete soon but I use mine all the time. I’ve toted it from job to job and over the years collected tons of business cards. One day, I’ll weed through it and maybe even dump it and just use my phone contacts. But for now it lives on my desk and it was an eyesore.

It’s your standard black Rolodex. Or it was… now it has a fresh makeover and looks much better.

I started by removing all the cards and giving it a good washing. Then I lightly sanded it and gave it a coat or three of white spray paint.

While the paint was drying, I made new dividers. A-Z plus some category tabs like, Doctors, Home Repair and so on.

To make the dividers you simply cut out several rectangles sized to your Rolodex.
I have a handy tab punch and I used double-sided super strong tape to stick those onto the top of the dividers.
To cut the bottom holes so that it fits into the Rolodex cut two narrow slits and use a hole punch to cut a circle at the top of each slit.
Because I used black chalkboard paper, I used a white chalk pen to write my alphabet.

This super cool wood paper was the perfect touch to cover up the brand name on the dials. I used a 2 inch circle punch to cut the wood paper.

I really need to get rid of some of the cards because I’m almost at maximum capacity.

Little personal notes that people write on their cards are one of the reasons I hang on to this thing.

Thanks so much for stopping by.
