Sometimes a sheet of notebook paper or a plain piece of copy paper isn’t what you need to get a job done.

Sometimes you need specialty papers.  Rather than spend a lot of money for a notepad of specialty paper, use your computer to get free printable papers for just about anything.

PrintablePaper.net has hundreds of different types of printable papers available to download and print.

For example, there is printable graph paper to use for your child’s math homework.  You could use the graph paper to help you design a new space or to plan a new furniture arrangement before you start the heavy lifting.

There are free budgeting worksheets to help you plan your spending for the month.

There are a ton of resources to help teachers manage their classrooms and keep track of their students’ work.

You can print papers to get organized and manage your household.  There would be some great pages to use in a family binder or Just In Case file.

I also love that there are all kinds of scoring sheets for sports and board games.  No more scribbling your Scrabble score on the back of an old envelope when you can print a nice, organized score sheet!

All of the printable papers on PrintablePaper.net can be downloaded for free. You can also download an editable version for a small fee or get all of the papers on a CD-ROM for $39.

You can get creative and print on colored paper and you can stretch your budget by printing on both sides of each paper.

When I saw these free printable papers, I saw a lot of potential low-cost projects in the making.  All you need is some plain copy paper and a printer with some ink!
