I love our Everyday Life albums! These not-so-mini Mini Albums would make Goldilocks happy: not to small and not too big.
Currently, you have two choices: Black & White Stripes or Sea Glass. (In August, a new color Bashful will be introduced!)
These versatile two-ring albums can become whatever you want them to be. Want to make a pint size photo album? Fill your binder with the 4″x6″ Memory Protectors (2 photos per side) and just slide your printed pictures in. Would you rather mix it up by alternating with journaling and titles? Fill some of the photo wells with 4×6 Picture My Life Cards. Add some 3″x4″ Memory Protectors to mix it up even more.
Another option is to fill the album with full size 6″x8″ Memory Protectors and fill them with down sized scrapbook layouts. There are Memory Protector designs that you can mix and match throughout your book: 3″x4″, 4″x6″ and 6″x8″.
Of course you can also use the binder as a planner. Either purchase the calendar pages from us (currently deeply discounted!) or create your own. There are so many great printables available on the internet.
Members of my Close To My Heart team are using the Everyday Life album as “business binders”. We are setting up sections to hold information about contacts, events, goals and more.
In fact, you can embrace your creativity and combine all of these ideas to create exactly what you want. Regardless of what you create with your Everyday Life Album, adding a few tabs can help you keep your pages organized.

Thanks so much for sharing this!! I am still hoping to use mine as a planner and this will help so much!!
You are welcome! Good luck — there are so many cool ideas for planners. (I know the year is about half over, but the 2017 coloring planner pages are still in the shop. The album + planner pages is just $1 more than the album alone, so still time to start using it.)
Love this album size! The Sea Glass is going to be a Christmas gift for our granddaughter so she can make her own "Fifth Grade Memory Book" in her creative style with the 6 x 8 and 4 x 6 page protectors!
How fun! Love that you are passing down memory keeping to the next generation — what a gift!
