Home Binder with Free Printables!
Grab our home binder with free printables to help you organize your time, goals, projects, household, and more!
One of the reasons that I’ve gotten into organization and productivity is because I’m pretty naturally scatterbrained. I lose my phone several times per day. I tend to leave a trail of half finished projects in my wake. And if I don’t write it down, I can pretty much guarantee I’ll forget it.
Enter: printables! Printables have saved me so many times because they allow me to organize all of the important information I need to remember in one place.
For all of the most important printables that I use all the time, I put together a little Home Binder (sometimes called a Home Management Binder or Household Binder), so I can easily find what I need whenever I need it.

Before we jump into the Home Binder tour, here are a few of the items I use to put together my binder:

The Home Binder Cover
A pretty cover always makes me want to open up my binder more often, so I started with that. The cover is sweet and simple and includes a line to write your name so the binder can always make its way back to you if it gets lost!
Goal Setting Worksheet
The very first thing I include in just about any binder I create is a goal setting sheet. I think goals are so important because they serve as a reminder of what I’m working toward!
This goal setting sheet is organized by priority. I find that this helps me make sure my goals are closely aligned with the things that are most important to me in life. You can read more about my goal setting philosophy here.
Home Binder Planning Printables
Next up is the “planning” section of the binder. Because I am a huge nerd (consider yourself warned 😉 ), this section has three subsections, the first of which is the monthly calendar.
Printable Monthly Calendar
Calendars can be used for SO MANY things, from planning out schedules to managing action steps for our goals to organizing events and more!
The calendar included here is intentionally undated so that it can be used for any year. It is also in portrait orientation and has a Sunday start. For more calendar options– including dated calendars for the current year, calendars in landscape orientation, and calendars with a Monday start, see this post.
Weekly Planning Printables
The second subsection of my “planning” category holds weekly planning sheets. I like to be able to plan specific goals for each week and schedule in time to work on them, so I created a printable to help me do just that.
For printables like these that I use often, I like to print out a bunch at a time and keep them in the binder so that I can just grab one at the beginning of each week and fill it out.
To learn more about how I use this weekly planning printable to help reach my goals, see this post.
Planning My Day Printable
The third and final subsection under my “planning” tab helps me break down my day. I am a huge fan of time blocking, and this page helps me to schedule in everything I want to get done for the day so I waste less time and accomplish more.
If you’re not familiar with time blocking, it is a time management strategy that has helped me become so much more productive! Learn more about time blocking and how I use it in this post.
So that wraps up the “planning” tab! Have I mentioned that I’m a bit of a planner? It’s true. 🙂
Tracking Printables
Next it’s on to the “tracking” tab. This section helps me keep track of little details so that I don’t miss a thing!
Password Cheat Sheet Printable
I am hopeless at remembering passwords, so I created a simple password cheat sheet to help me out. I’ll never have to worry about forgetting my password again!
Habit Tracker Printable
The other printable in this section is my habit tracker. I am always amazed at how checking off a little box can help me stay on track, building positive habits and getting rid of bad ones!
For more information about tracking daily habits and why it works so well, see this post.
Household Organization Home Binder Printables
The household tab is up next, and it contains a super simple cleaning plan!
Cleaning Plan Printable
I have found that cleaning routines and preferences are usually pretty different from household to household, so I tried to keep it flexible enough to meet everyone’s needs.
Since many cleaning tasks are completed on a weekly basis, this printable has room at the top to plan out which tasks will be completed each day of the week. Then at the bottom there is space to list cleaning tasks that should be done daily, along with more infrequent tasks that need to be completed on a monthly or yearly basis.
I think I’ve printed and tried out every single plan ever pinned to Pinterest– complicated ones, straightforward ones, detailed ones– you name it, I’ve tried it! I ended up with this one because I felt like I could honestly commit to it and do it every day, and that’s the goal, right?
Project Planning Printable
We also do a ton of projects around here, so I’ve included the project planning sheet that helps me break down each one and list all of the nitty gritty details so that I don’t forget anything.
This page has space to plan out everything I need to do for the project, what I need to buy, people to contact, and a space for tracking expenses so that I don’t go overboard!
Meal Planning Printables
I called the next tab “meal planning,” but really it’s just where I keep a bunch of copies of my organized shopping list. I know if I don’t have them printed out, I’m less likely to use them, so I just print a big stack, pop them in the binder, and grab one whenever I’m planning a shopping trip.
I’ve included a one-week version for people who do the grocery shopping every week and a two-week version for people who prefer to shop every other week.
So that’s my home binder! If you are a printable lover like I am, the easiest way to see all of the free printables that we offer on the blog (including more free printable binders) is to visit our printables library. There are more than 300 pages of printables, so hopefully you will be able to find what you need to get organized!

~Abby =)
We’re moving this weekend! I ADORE packing and unpacking because it gives me the ability to purge and then organize from a fully clean slate! Oh I can’t wait! I can’t imagine moving that many times as you did. However, this will be my third time in three years. I’m hoping we stay rooted for a while!!
Oooh fun! Good luck with all of your moving stuff! How exciting!

Oops – wrong post to comment on the giveaway…but I love your printables and was browsing…
Sorry!
Thank you so much for checking out my blog, Chris! Good luck in the giveaway!
~Abby =)
Hi Abby
Thank you for getting me back on track! I was feeling a little lost for a while during and after having my kitchen and bathroom redecorated and I was almost becoming accustomed to the mess and disorganisation! I’ve always kept a budget planner, but yours was so user-friendly, bright and inspiring that it led me into reading your blog. I ran out and bought two binders and printed the printables. Nothing can stop me now!
I’m inspire again! Thank you x
Yay!!! I’m so glad the printables were helpful, Nadia! Your sweet comment totally made my day! I hope they work well for you! Thanks so much for visiting my blog!
~Abby =)
Hello I just subscribed and I am wondering how to get the PDF with screen shots for creating your own printables
Hi, Heidi! I just emailed you!
~Abby =)
My printer thanks you for actually being put to good use since I bought it!!! I was wondering if you have a blank copy of the cleaning plan. I have an 8 year old and he has daily chores. By having one place that he can go to to know what he needs to do daily will be most helpful. Thank you for sharing.
Hi, Erica! I just emailed it to you! Thanks so much for checking out my blog! Happy Mother’s Day!
~Abby =)
I just discovered your blog yesterday via an pintrest
post, and I am stick to it. I cant stop reading and saving.
I love how organized you are!! Any way… Is there a
possibility you can send me this blog in a PDF
so I can save it. With Photos and text please.
Thank You.
Hi, Chantal! The easiest way to save a post is to select the whole thing and copy and paste it into a word processing document! You can even save it as a PDF from there if you’d like. Hope this helps!
~Abby =)
Just wonderful!!! These are great. Thank you so much for sharing.
Hello, I love the blog! I would to create my biender too; I just subscribed and I am wondering how to get the PDF with screen shots for creating my own printables
Hi, Joe! I just emailed you!! Thank you so much for subscribing!
~Abby =)
So this is horrible that I am finding this towards the end of the year but so happy that I did so that I can get started. Will you be updating at the end of the year for 2015?
Hi, Amanda! I recently shared my 2015 printable calendar (https://justagirlandherblog.com/free-printable-2015-calendar/). I will probably do another full binder tour sometime later this year. Thanks so much for checking out my blog!
~Abby =)
Hello!
Are there any particular label makers or binder dividers that you LOVE? Maybe you could link to them on Amazon? Thanks! This is SOOOO Helpful!!
Hi, Jillian! Great question! I use the plastic binder dividers with the pockets like these: https://www.amazon.com/Avery-Durable-Write-On-Dividers-16177/dp/B004HLZ1FM/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1412192495&sr=8-12&keywords=binder+dividers and I have this label maker and love it: https://www.amazon.com/Epson-LabelWorks-LW-400-Label-C51CB70010/dp/B005J7Y6GS/ref=sr_1_3?s=office-products&ie=UTF8&qid=1412192570&sr=1-3&keywords=label+maker . Hope this helps! Have a great day!
~Abby =)
Thank You Abby! Ordering a bunch today!!
Question: I went to the Amazon link for your label maker, and some of the negative reviews said that the font edges were jagged, that the font size was huge and couldn’t be changed when making “flag” labels (don’t know what “flag labels” are), and that it broke easily, and the Epson support was terrible. You mentioned that you love it. What do you like about it, and have you had any problems with it? Thanks so much for all you great ideas and inspiration, enjoy your blog very much!
Man, people are rough with reviews, lol! I have had my label maker for 3-ish years now, and I haven’t had any issues with jagged edges when printing and my machine is still going strong– no breaks. I have not tried the flag labels, so I’m not sure about that. I love it because it is easy to use, and I feel like the settings are pretty intuitive as far as changing font size, etc. It has never jammed for me, when other label makers I have owned did. I hope this helps! Have a great week, Kim!
~Abby =)
I love the idea. Now I just have to implemented.
There is 2 sheets that your not giving an option to print.
The “Our cleaning plan” and ” Goals for the week”.
Can you please put those in your blog or email them to me so I can just print them?
Thank you
Hi, Yailing! Those printables are included! 🙂 You can find the Goals for the Week in this post: https://www.mom4real.com/weekly-goals-printable-free-printable/ and the cleaning plan here: https://justagirlandherblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Our-Cleaning-Plan.pdf . I hope that helps! Have a wonderful day!
~Abby =)
Yes it does.
Thank you so much!
Hi, I just subscribed. How do I get the pdf to create printables?
Thanks!
I just emailed you!!
~Abby =)
Hi! First I want to say Thank you for sharing this amazing planner with us!!! I have a few questions… What do you use to carry around with you? I am assuming you don’t carry this with you out and about. Do you have a certain day/time that you use to sync up your “out and about” planner, with your family planner? I am a Consultant with Jamberry Nails, and I am looking for something that I can keep my Jamberry and my home life all in one spot. Can we customize these printouts? Thanks so much for any help and for all of this great info!!
I’ve subscribed! How long will it be before I should receive the PDF?
Thanks!
Hi, Shayla! I just emailed you!
~Abby =)
Hey I love, love, looovvvveee the household binder. Is there any way you can update the form to 2015. I’m really excited about getting more organized this upcoming year.
Thanks for blogging about this! I can’t wait to print these off and start putting them to use! You wouldn’t happen to have a blank version of the Cleaning Schedule that you could post or email would you? I could make my own up, but I love the design scheme you have! thanks!
Melissa
Hi, Melissa! The post has been updated to include a blank version of the cleaning schedule! (https://justagirlandherblog.com/home-binder-with-free-printables/) I hope this helps!
~Abby =)
Hi! I TOTALLY need your tutorial of “How to make printables”! I have already subscribed! Please e-mail me fast! I am making my binder and there are a few printables that I just CAN’T find in the internet! Please send me the tutorial!
Hi, Maggiesinha! I emailed you!
~Abby =)
I am interested in the Household projects printable. Do you have one that says 2015 not 2014? I have printed all of the other pages but wanted this to say 2015. Love your site!!! Very helpful!
Hi, Mindy! The post has been updated to include a date-free version of the household projects printable! (https://justagirlandherblog.com/home-binder-with-free-printables/) Hope this helps!!

I love this! Definitely using as some inspiration to create a 2015 binder for myself!
I definitely found myself not only pinning posts from here but printing as well! Thanks for making my 2015 home binder all the more awesome!
I just found you (through Pinterest, natch) and just wanted to say: Will you marry me? I’m sure our husbands would understand 🙂
But seriously, I LOVE all the info and advice and printables. I’ve been working on my own binder and will definitely use everything you have so generously shared! Looking forward to working my way through your blog. Thanks again!
Thank you for all this! Very helpful, I have so enjoyed reading through your posts and feel better equipped as I organize my own household. Many thanks for your generosity and wisdom!
This is basically the most amazing binder I have ever seen!! I absolutely LOVE it!!
Thank you so much! I have spent a happy hour or so here and will no doubt return as I put together my binder. Thank you for all your free printables. This is the best binder I have ever come across. Cheers and here’s to a more organised me!

These are just amazing!! Where were you when I raised my five children?? I homeschooled them too, so I could have really used all of this. I tried every “get organized” idea out there, read every book. Some helped but really I ended up just winging it. I will tell everyone I know with kids, busy life or large family about you! Thank you so much, Abby!
You are the sweetest, Ramona! Thank you so much! Hope you’re having a wonderful week! <3

Thks for your sharing, Abby! Happy planning!
You have come to my rescue ! I’m over whelmed and need your wisdom.
We have two homes in two countries. One here in Georgia and one in Haiti. We are Missionaries there.
We are back and forth every so many months. I’m retired and my husband will retire 3/2020. We then will sell our home he in Ga. We then will have completed our TN house (building from ground up and the home we will retreat to when state side. The Ga home will be sold. We need to prepare to home in Haiti more for the full time living there. We will buy a RV and use it for our travels when state side. Now I’m planning and designing the TN house as the work there will start this early fall.
My brain is fried.

I have searched high and low for resources. I am still working on being organized, but have found I need to take time to make time. Before you I was picking and choosing different pages from all over. You have an outstanding setup to your organization and explain it so well. I hope someday I truly have the ability to regularly lay out, organize, and follow through on the aspects of my life. I just wanted to let you know how much of an inspiration and help you are.
Wow, thank you so much Karen! You made my day! I’m so glad it has been helpful for you… love to hear that. Hope you have an awesome week! <3

Hi This is more of a question . I thought you had Kitchen organizer – that includes a pantry and refrigerator inventory list . I can’t find …please help . Thank you for putting this together.. A family is a small business.
Hi there! We do have kitchen inventory printables in our printables vault! They are in the “Printables from the Former Printables Vault” section near the bottom of the page. If you don’t have access to the vault yet, you can get the access info sent to you via email here: https://justagirlandherblog.com/free . I hope this helps! Have a great day!
Hey Abby!!!
You are a life saver, your printables are really awesome. Now I will be more organized. Thank you so much for sharing these…..

Thanks Abby! These resources are so useful! I have never been so organised before I found these. Thank you so much!
Yay! I’m so glad they will be helpful for you! Hope you have a wonderful weekend!
tons of pop-up ads.. I entered my info for the free printable and got sent to a pay now for low price.. so they aren’t free???
Hi, Elizabeth! The printables are free. We give our new subscribers a discounted price on our Declutter Your House in a Weekend program, so that was probably the paid offer you were seeing. If you didn’t get the email with access to the Home Binder, shoot us an email at hello@justagirlandherblog.com, and we would be happy to send it over to you!
