The Advantages and Disadvantages of using a Three-Ring binder - Book of Shadows.

 

Pluses / Advantages:

 

o This is one of the fastest ways to create a complete book of shadows.

o The contents can be easily shuffled, rearranged, and added to.

o Pages can be easily removed and put in another binder, which is especially convenient when your book grows too big.

o Notes can be easily added in the margins.

o Copies and handwritten pages can be used interchangeably.

o It’s very easy to use.

 

 

Minuses / Disadvantages:

 

o Three ring binders are generally ugly and generic - looking, though there are ways around that.

o Binders are always big and a bit unwieldy when they start getting full.

o They don’t always fit easily on bookshelves or in one’s hands during use.

o Pages tear easily, even in a page protector.

 

side note: also takes less amount of work to add to / update then most.

 

Personal note: A three-ring binder was my first ever grimoire, along with spiral, 1-subject, college-ruled notebooks and some looseleaf paper. Mostly, though, these contained notes from various websites, books, lessons, and my first ever spells and rituals that I had made myself. Had these for years, until I lost them in a house fire in 2015.
