What to do with hair bow instructions??

[Strotherkt]

I have mine printed and in a 3 ring binder but is space is an issue for you Id keep them on the comp

Kinko's is only cheaper if you're printing a lot and need them put into a binder. I had to do a the worst project at work. My boss wanted twelve binders printed with almost a ream of paper in each. I could only copy ten or so pages at a time and then had to collate by hand. After I jammed the copy machine and had to call a repairman, he told me it was $.12 to print on that copier and Kinko's would have been around $.08 with the collating and hole punching included.


Anywho, I like to put mine in binders or report folders.

Ditto....gotta be able to add to it! I just wish our fancy all in one was a color printer my book is so blah and boring!

being a quilter/sewer primarily, i've got tons and tons of patterns purchased from etsy that i printed out or found tutorials through blogs and printed out. i can't tell you the amount of money spent on ink alone and add to it paper and binders and sheet protectors. i'm a super-organized person and have them all separated by theme etc, and being a newbie w/ hairbow making, i have purchased quite a few, but have found too many pages to print at home--staples has been the best place for me at b/w printing for 6cents a page and they often get it done the same day.
my husband ended up getting an external hard drive which is just chocked full of patterns, tutorials and instructions, so my computer doesn't suffer from memory loss. really it's your pref. where you can easily turn to them if you need help etc.

Becareful with the external hard drive. I had all my instructions saved to one plus years worth of pictures. Well one day my external hard drive crashed and I was unable to view anything on it. Good thing my hubby has a fishing buddy that repairs computers. He was able to take it a part and hook it up to a machine that saved all my things to a disk. He didn't charge me a dime to get everything back for me. I had even my youngest daughters baby pics on it. I know now to make a back up copy lol.

I don`t know if it is different in any other locations but when I lived in Miami Kinko`s would not even fotocopy my husbands passaport for me because he was not present so maybe they do have issues about copyright.
I print mine`s at home and then refill cartridges ( I have three sets so when I am reffilling one I still have two other sets available at home) and now here in venezuela they are selling some continuos ink systems for printers that they put jars of each color conected to the cartridges so you dont even have to refill them you just buy the ink and pour it to the containers yourself....this is sort of a home thing but the printer is a very simple one it is not expensive and that way you can use it for daily tasks and not worry about the expensive cost of ink....I will definetely buy one soon. here a link to the printers so you get the idea......MercadoLibre: Impresoras HP D2460 + Sistema Continuo de Tinta INSTALADO - BsF 349.00 at the exchange rate the cost of the printer in like 60$ and of course there must be something like this in the USA
After printing the instructions I put them into a Cd and the printed one into a 3 hole binder.

I need to print mine out too. I just have a couple but I hate having to search my files to find them when I need to look up something. but I would agree on doing at home yourself too. It'll be cheaper.

[ChrissiesCustomCreations]

I have printed all mine out and since I have my own binding machine I bound them to make a book for myself

[RandR]

I save/burn all of mine on a CD. Label it Sewing Patterns and that's it. No cluttered binders taking up much needed room!

[dancindharma]

Print them and put in binder with tabs marking which bow is which. I even like to organize in alphabetical order!
