Discover how to create a two-toned folder ready for your artistic touch!
Instructions
Gather six sheets of paper.
Attach two sheets together, leaving the top unattached. This will form the folder section.
Repeat step #2 using the remaining two pieces of paper.
Secure the shorter edges together with staples, leaving the top (longest edge) free. This forms the pocket of the folder.
Repeat steps 4 and 5 with the remaining construction paper.
Attach the 'pockets' to both 'folders' using staples. Ensure the openings of the 'pockets' are facing upward.
Use staples to join the individual 'folders' along one edge, allowing it to flip open. Ensure that the 'pockets' are on the inside.
Personalize your folder! Congratulations, you now have a fantastic handmade folder.
Completed.

Important Notes
- This folder has a limited lifespan, so anticipate the need to create a replacement. (Having a spare on standby is helpful).
- Avoid using super glue as it can be difficult to remove if it comes into contact with your skin.
- Avoid using a hot glue gun because it tends to spread everywhere and can cause burns if it touches your skin.
- Be cautious not to staple yourself.
