In Full Bloom Accordion File Standard, But Pretty By Joan Young on - Updated Oct 15, 2011
A standard accordion file without any extra amenities, but it has nice decoration, reasonably priced.
The In Full Bloom line offers Binders, Composition Books, Folders, Journals, Notebooks, Writing utensils and coming soon, a Women's Planner.
There are three basic designs which are all florals on a black background. The one I bought is the most stylized of the three. The designs are youthful and attractive. They are copyright designs by Jacqueline Savage McFee. You can see all the designs at U:Create.
This is a plastic accordion file case. It will hold 8 1/2 x 11 inch papers. The file has eight pockets with tabs, and paper inserts with the alphabet and the months are provided. The bottom width is set by the plastic case, so it will not expand beyond 1 inch wide.
Things I like about this case:
- The design is very nice
- I think the price on all these plastic folders is way too high. But this one compares very well with comparable plain products.
Things I don't like about this case:
- The elastic cord that fits around the button is held on with sharp metal tips that pull against the plastic on the other side of the cover. This is standard, but I don't like the fact that the loop is attached to the cover where you can scrape your hand on those metal tips every time you open it. I have other cases that have the loop fastened the other way, so the metal tips are inside the case.

I have never seen these in a decorated style. Helps liven up the office!
I have been trying to get my 14 year old to be more organzied and start keeping track of her personal papers like instruction manuals and warrenties for things like her Ipod. She will not use anything that is not "Pretty". This file folder is actually very nice and pretty too. It might be just what we are looking for.
Simple, easy to use, price great and works. My kind of product! Thanks
Thanks for sharing this detailed information. I was thinking of purchasing this, but not sure I like the metal tips. I would certainly scrape my fingers every time I opened it.
Great detail as always sharkbytes:0) It does have a pretty cover...better than my plan old yucky brown :0)
I like this file-it breaks up the boring accordion file folder colors!!! I use these constantly for school projects & just keeping myself organized! I will have to check our Meijer for these!
I love these. I actually have 2 of them. One is for personal papers and the other was for my wedding planning and now it was converted to my baby folder =-) These things hold so much stuff. Hopefully one day I can take some time and clean mine out before it explodes lol.
