How would you use your mini binder? Let us know in the comments!

Maybe this is extremely niche, but I've been tackling my yard and making a journal of all the plants I have, diagrams of where I've planted things, and notes about future things to get. I've also been taking notes and pictures of the invasive plants I need to remove, plus local native replacements. Now I want to make an invasive plant ID binder could to keep with my tools or taking to friends houses when they ask for yard help. But also what a super cute gift for a new homeowner who maybe doesn't know about yard stuff yet? you can customize it for your specific area, etc.

I'm a Surgical Technologist, assisting doctors with surgery in the operating room. These would be perfect for the notes and doctor's preference cards we rely upon to make sure we have everything we need for every surgery.

I learned about mini binders from previous vids. I recently got the Kokuyo one in A5 size bc I couldn't keep track of my 8 engineering projects (I'm in civil engr) and I was getting stressed losing track of to-dos. I was getting stressed to the point I had stress induced "ice pick" headaches that I've never had before and had to call in sick one day so I could rest and figure out if acetaminophen or ibuprofen was better at holding the sharp pains at bay. My division uses some pre-made spreadsheets for weekly or biweekly mtgs with supervisors, but those are only good for discussing the current status of each project. These don't let u keep track of meetings and events w extensive note, but notes give u context and jog ur memory for the many, many details each project has. I use my binder as a notebook to keep track of meeting notes, to do's, and due dates separated by project. Before I was keeping track of everything in chronological order in one notebk.... But of course that makes looking for notes by project extremely hard. However, I also didn't want 8 notebks bc I'd def lose at least half by placing them in random places. I also like hardcopy bc I get distracted easily on phone or PC. It's too easy to get lost in a rabbit hole due to email, files along file paths, or even notifications by MS Office. Neither MS Word or Excel work well as notebk replacements either. A physical notebook can also be brought to different offices or in the field when u can't bring ur PC. I've only had my notebk system for 1.5 wks, so we'll see how it goes. But so far it seems to be going really well. One supervisor asked about 2 mtgs I had and I was able to flip to my notes and brief her. I also started writing my notes for 1 mtg in the wrong section, but was able to open the rings and move the notes to the appropriate project's section.

I've wanted one of these for a long time, but had no specific use for it. Maybe now I can justify the purchase to myself! 😄

Y'all can't do this to me The gradient one has been in my cart for weeks and I've been trying to resist 😭😭😭

I’m a HUGE fan of my Maruman mini binder. I’ve been using it every day for about a year now, as my to-do list and meeting note keeper. I have a small Sketchmark Bookmark Stencil for checkboxes and list elements (hint hint, JetPens! You need to carry this!) that I keep in the clear zip pocket. It’s super easy to just put the binder in my pocket and go to meetings, and I keep it open on my desk all day. Pairs well with a .5 or .4 multi-pen, for small writing and doodling. I love it!!

While I don't need a mini binder, I really love the little cards that can fit in a larger binder as a great way to keep up with important study notes! I bought the large Maruman Sessons binder, so I already have one part of that equation 😅

Why you need a mini binder? Because if you’re watching this, you’re addicted to stationery.

ohhhh perfect timing!! i was just looking into getting a mini binder to replace a discontinued small notebook that i found useful for quick notes in class. lots of good info here :^)

Damnit Jetpens, I JUST convinced myself i didn’t need one of these and took it out of my wishlist 😂 I have cats I need to spoil! :D

I use mini binders as daily planners! They are the perfect size to carry around.

I am often looking to make notes or jot ideas while I am at my desk...usually in front of a screen. Instead of a scrap, that I would lose or a full size binder that would necessitate rearranging the entire desk, a mini-binder that would allow me to move my notes into a larger format while not taking up so much space...🤔I'm making room in the budget! 💚💚

I love these. The sketchbook idea would really help get over that fear of messing up, while the mini to do list book would be very useful.

OK, you convinced me! How about doing a video on school supplies for middle school students? I saw the one you did on high school, but my soon to be sixth grader loves pens and Posca markers and loves shopping for school supplies. You can't start them too young!

Thanks for the erasable flash card idea. I’m in!

Ohhhhhhhh **drools** You’re showing me paper and binder porn. I just downsized from a big binder to a small one. I’m delivering a talk soon and just needed a small binder to keep my papers together. Now I NEED this mini binder 😍😍😍😍 PS. Where can I get the clear acrylic drawers you’ve used for coloured pencils storage?

I like the idea of using them to make and store flashcards!

They look like old autograph books ❤❤❤

a compatible and compact hole punch would be fantastic for this. being able to add loose paper notes to a small binder on the go would be a lifesaver

how did you know I have been researching all of your binder + refill options 👀 😂

today i learned i need a mini binder 😳

I have never been more excited for a JetPens video! I have a couple of these because I love using the refills in larger binders. I never thought of using the sheet protectors as a white board, and I love the vocab refills! I can definitely see how these will be useful for studying and many more uses. Right now I am using mine now for an upcoming travel. Schedule refill to plan the days, lined and line colored refill to hold info on specific places, hotel reservations, etc. I want to visit, card holders for transit cards, instax mini photos, and washi boards, and zipper pocket for random papers we all tend to collect. I usually use a TN A5 slim to journal and scrap book, then keep that as my trip souvenir in the TC binder. I was having trouble figuring out how to keep the Maruman papers in the TC binder with the notebook for after the trip is done, but TC has a kraft envelope that fits these perfectly that I can glue to the inside covers! The One day binders and scrapbooking refill would be perfect if you don't want to journal too much; everything can stay in there forever all in one place!

I would definitely use a mini binder for swatching all my art supplies!

for the record, I now read every jetpens blog post in Stephanie's voice

You can use the clear file thingies for storing the collector cards from blind box figures.

Of course my actual question, "ooh what Japanese textbook is that at 1:20?" But yes I had been debating on getting one of these for studying languages.

As a lefty this would be very handy as a flip up note pad

I wish your videos weren't so good, or your products - now I really want one of those mini-binders, lol!

I'm now seeing this video for the first time and find it very interesting. It's given me fresh ideas for the new school year coming up. This is great thanks 👍🏾

These are great videos! There are so many ideas that can appeal to everyone's needs!

My job has many shifts, 12 so I use them for notes on each shift for a quick reminder, or to help out a new employee LOVE. The mini binders!

I definitely need a mini binder that fits my Lihit Labs Smart fit belt pouch. I’m glad JP still had the camp version in stock.

What timing - I just got one from you to use as an fountain pen ink swatch book! I cut and hole punch 68 gsm A4 Tomoe River Paper for the pages

I was just looking for something like this to use to keep track of what inks I put in my fountain pens 😊

As a Left-hander, I used a top-bound loose-leaf 3x5” notebook from maybe 8lth or 10th grade until refills could no longer be found. Best tool ever!

I have these and mostly use them for notes and lists. I LOVE them.

Super cute and versatile! 🥰

I couldn't resist the pink and blue gradient on the Maruman session notebooks. I bought them right when they went live on the site. 😅

I’m sold. This is exactly the system I need! 😍

Really very nice >>>>>> Thank you .

I’m thinking these would be great for work and taking notes during meetings.

I’m having deja vu all over again...as I mentioned about the Sun-Star Delde Smand pen cases in a recent video, I have 2 of these mini binders, also: 1 navy Maruman Into-One & 1 Session. 😬💸 I’m a scrapbooker & use the 1st one, filled w/graph paper, to plan my page layouts. I think I decided the 2nd one, which just arrived a few days ago, is just for personal use - those little things you scribble down in a big notebook & want to save, but (1) you may not use a whole page & (2) you can’t rearrange spiral-bound pages.

A lot of the student-geared products could also be used for #writers to organize their thoughts and what they want to address in their work, no matter their preferred genre. Love all your suggestion videos!

Glad I found this! My index card sized Ringdex binders are wearing out after a half century.

Thank you

Great ideas!

These are so clever and you've presented so many great ideas. I'm afraid if I had one I'd be tempted to stuff it to extreme chonkiness. 😊 How thick are they?

these would be rad for playing ttrpgs

Disc binders are another great option because they come in different sizes and it is super easy to “peel and press'' the pages from a smaller binder into bigger binders. It is super easy to Peel out the pages as well just to write on them without the interference of the binding, and then press them back into place. With a disk punch, it’s super easy to type up and print out your notes on whatever size page you want and press the study notes or whatever back into the binder of your choice.

Was thinking of using one for a commonplace book because I know I want different sections (for example musings separate from quotes), but I really don’t know how big to make each section. With a binder the sections would grow organically and I wouldn’t have to worry about running out of pages for each section.

I have so many because I’m obsessed, but not sure how to use them! 😅 Okay, watched the vid and now I have soooo many ideas! Very inspiring! 🎉

I wish they had a perforated pad so you could write on them on the go and arrive home and detache and sort them in your mini binders w/o carrying all of them.

Is there a hole puncher to use on outside sheets?

I put my photocards in them.... 🙈

I use my miniMarumans to track how I've inked my fountain pens, and organizing quick notes at work. I have a minihole punch and I punch my scrap paper notes and pop those in. and when that stuff is done, I can recycle them.

Omg. I'm in 🎉

How does these compare to that notebook that fits below a keyboard(can’t remember the name, sorry)?

I used to have a miny binder but i don't know where i left it

Is there a puncher available for the paper size of the mini binder? Is the Carl gauge 26-hole punch compatible?

Is there a hole punch that corresponds to the rings on these binders? (either the mini or full-sized) Because I'm thinking: watercolor sketchbook! Punch holes in professional-grade watercolor paper and create your own mini-sketchbook! And you could remove pages from it and add them to a larger notebook, like you show for the student notes, creating a gallery of sketches, maybe showing how your skill improves over time. Could be brilliant!

"Alright, class, 70% of your grade is based on your notes. Turn in your binders. Wtf is this?! 'It helps you learn better?' I'm not grading based on what you learned!"

I feel like this will be perfect for biology flashcards. I'm obsessed with miniature things, so thats going to be my excuse for buying it lol

Where can I buy JetPens products in Europe? Thanks

Now I want a mini binder 😢

What’s the largest binder in the world?

Are they B7 only?

These would be good for kpop photo cards too

I like the thumbnail

I have been eyeing these for a few months. I wished I had ordered these with my pen order. Cause shipping takes FOREVER 😢

Do they have mini shitajiki for these mini binders?

I found these binders helpful when I was in nursing school.

comeon every into one refills are out of stok

😍

😊

send to Mexico?

Start of Video: "I don't need a mini binder." By the end of Video: "Oh mini portfolio! This is going on my wish list."

Do yall think they should start selling reputable how to draw books like how to draw like marvel comics and perspectives made easy??? I feel as they should and i would like this alot

It would be cool to see some money stuffing with these...

this is extremely convincing. why must you make me terrorize my wallet like this....

Isn't this just doing the same thing as filofax planners😂

I know this is probably a sponsored/highlighted brand video but I am very much a "everything bad that can happen absolutely will" person, and mini binders are so stressful to me. You could lose them. You might break one if it ends up under something heavy. You'll run out of pages in the middle of class if you aren't careful. I am getting a headache just imagining having to rely on these.
