If you collect these and the pattern books, how do you deal with them? Do you just shelve them and leave until you need one? Cut out what you think you'll use later and toss the rest?
I was thinking about getting a 3-ring binder and cutting out the new designs and relevant pages for recipes and such to put in the binder along with the pattern book when the current year is done. It just seems silly have the catalog portion hanging around and I think I might be able to get 2-3 years in a single binder this way.

You sound much more organized than me
I just put them on the shelf with my other cookbooks...the catalog part doesn't take up that much space.
I seperate mine and put them in a 3 ring binder. I throw away the catalog part and then I put all of the decorating guide/tips and technique sections in one notebook and then all of the projects in another notebook. That just works better for me than having to drag out several magazines when looking for ideas or whatever, instead I can just pull out the one notebook.
I am a newbie, so this is what I do. I make a copy of the pages I want on my computer scanner and put it in a 3-ring binder. The binder is sectioned off as info, cake ideas, recipes, etc. I also put a photo of each cake I have completed in it (as sort of a diary to see how I am progressing). I had all the info I need right at my fingertips in one location that way.
i keep them as they are, since i have collected them all and it is fun to look back sometimes as the styles have changed so much over the years. So mine are just shelved until i want to look through them.

LOL, I have to be (lots of kids, small house and very little storage space....)
I'm needing to make some space on the bookshelves now that my oldest son(14) is getting interested in cooking/baking and adding to the cookbook collection.....
