What's the best way to organize my notes?!
Ok I am having a party (halloween I know I know!. No need for anyone to get on my case about it being july) and I need to organize the notes so that I can find everything and get it all done!. Problem is I suck at notes!. So what I need is the decorations I have to make, the ones I have to buy, halloween costume ideas of what I want, what is reasonable for the costume, what I can buy, what I can make, guest list, food and drink (recipies, pickup and grocery list), movies, stories, music, best place to buy things, best craft ideas, schedual of the party,invitations, date and time, and overall theme!. I need to put this in a planner or on my computer but I don't even know where to start! Please help!Www@FoodAQ@Com
Answers:
I suggest NOT using a computer for this!. Get either a 5 subject notebook, or a thin binder and some dividers (like you use in school)!.
Then you can write down things that pop into your head, see how they look on paper, doodle them out and design them, compare actual colors/styles and anything that you cut out of other places (recipes or pics) you can just tape on the the page!.
Have a different section for each topic: costumes, decorations, food ideas!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
