Where do I get decent quality ones from these days?

We’ve redecorated our home office/study and as these folders will be on show, we’d like them to be ‘nice’.

Plain, not patterned as the wallpaper is quite lush 😁

I’ve tried Rymans and WH Smith so far but have been rather underwhelmed.

Thanks in advance

Gosh, it seems as though people are constantly throwing them out. Have you tried Freecycle and the like, to rescue some from the waste stream?

Can you cover ordinary ones with the lush wallpaper?

You can get sticky labels to cover the spines.
Something like these but prettier
I'd just get a set of files from somewhere like Muji.

Who said anything about throwing old ones out? They are still being used, just not on show.

I think that might be too much but great idea. Thank you 😁

Thanks for the idea. That’s new to me. 😀

Have a look at the Leitz WOW range. Plain but with nice zingy colours.

I was going to suggest muji but it looks like someone beat me to it! Their stuff is great quality and they tend to stick with the same products so when you need more in a few years time, you shouldn't have any problems getting them.

My point was that discarded binders are ubiquitous; nothing about what you personally are doing with yours. It shouldn't be difficult to obtain some and save them from the waste stream.

Reading comprehension....

I understood what you meant, and I thought it was very obvious what you were saying. It was my first thought as well, to check the local pages for them.

Maybe OP doesn't want second-hand ones, but I don't think their response to you was necessary...

The spine stickers I was thinking of were from www.filesticker.com, and in a set of 4, where the 4 stickers made a picture.
I can't find any online.

My genuine apologies Zelda.

I did read your post as being a dig at me for being wasteful. 😔
