There are several discbound options to choose from and you can typically use them interchangeably. I love that I can move the months around like I want!

In fact, even the planner I use now is operates on a discbound system. I now own several discbound notebooks and I love them. Now I can add anything I want to my notebooks! To add pages all you have to do is place the page where you want it and gently press the tabs between the metal discs.ĭiscbound notebooks come with lined paper, but since I desired to add my own printables to my notebook I purchased a special hole puncher designed for discbound notebooks. The pages are punched with holes that allow you to add, remove and move around the pages as you like. You can customize your notebook easily thanks to the uniqueness of the discbound system. Unlike a traditional 3-ring binder, a discbound notebook lays flat when closed and the cover can be turned behind itself like a spiral bound notebook. What’s special about the discbound system? My large binder holds 8.5 x 11 inch paper, and my small binder holds 5.5 x 8.5 inch paper. Typically there are two sizes, both large and small. There are a variety of styles to choose from including textured, leather and poly covers. You can expand your notebook from 1/2 inch to up to 1 1/2 inch depending on your needs. There are several different sizes of discs so you can create a customized notebook in the size you want.

Instead of using rings like a traditional 3-ring binder, it uses a series of discs to keep the pages bound together. If you’re not familiar with the discbound system, let me share a few details with you about it. Yes, I love using the discbound system to stay organized and I can’t wait to share with you why! What is the discbound system? A few years ago I discovered the discbound system and it changed my world. 🙂 Either way, I’m always on the lookout for something new when it comes to office supplies. Some may say it’s an addiction, but since these items are useful and help me with productivity, I don’t think this addiction is a bad thing. Notebooks, pens, planners, sticky notes, notepads, I kind of collect these items. Note: This tip was provided by member ~Chere~.I admit I’m a real office supply junkie. be sure to put it under the paper before you glue the paper down. And if you’re putting any kind of closure like ribbon, etc.

Then take a piece of cardstock and measure just inside the covers and glue down to cover up the folds.

Cut the corners so they fold in nicely and fold the edges over and glue to the inside.

You could also use adhesive spray, Mod Podge or whatever works for you. To attach, you can use a Xyron machine and just run the paper through to make it adhesive-backed.Do this to both front and back sides of album.

Finally, make a horizontal cut from the hole to the edge of the paper.Punch small holes at the marks where the lines/dots intersect.Use this measurement to draw a vertical line down the back of your patterned paper. Measure the distance from the album’s left edge to its holes.Put the piece of paper on top of the album, turn the album over and with a pen/pencil (you won’t see the marks once it’s done) mark where the holes are with dots.First, cut your paper the measurement of the outside cover (don’t include the spiral in the measurement), cut 2 pieces if you’re covering front and back.
