- [Stephanie] We've all looked at a little kitten or puppy
and instinctually went "Aw."
But have you ever looked at a tiny pair of scissors
and had the same reaction?
- [Mr. Narrator] No.
- [Stephanie] -If you answered "yes,"
you are among your people!
In this video Mr. Narrator, and your girl, Stephanie,
will be showcasing our favorite small stationery.
The cute!
- [Mr. Narrator] And the practical.
Which is technically better,
because you can actually use these things.
- [Stephanie] Your stationery can be cute and still work,
don't listen to him.
Keep watching to see what we choose,
and let us know in the comments whose stuff you like better.
Also, remember that this is all in good fun.
Mr. Narrator and I are still friends, we promise.
- [Mr. Narrator] Let's get started.
- [Stephanie] Pens.
- [Mr. Narrator] Starting off our small stationery,
the petite, yet practical, Fisher Space Pen
doesn't look like much at first glance,
but when it's posted it becomes a full length pen.
Its all-brass body is durable
for the knocks of day-to-day life
and is prefilled with pressurized ink
that will write in just about any circumstance.
It can handle writing upside down, underwater,
over grease, and in extreme temperatures.
Pair it with a clip
to keep it from moving around in a pocket.
If you are often caught without a pen on hand,
the Fisher Space Backpacker Pen is about the same size
and can clip onto your keys or bag.
- [Stephanie] But why not pick something cuter,
like the Frosted Sport Ballpoint Pen?
The Kaweco Sport is known as "the perfect pocket pen."
Its octagonal body is made of high quality plastic
that's lightweight and sturdy
and its shape keeps it from rolling off your desk.
The Frosted Sport colorways are inspired by tropical fruit.
Plus, chic silver accents adorn the pen tip and push button.
You can also add a little more flair and function
by combining the Frosted Sport with a metal clip.
Why wouldn't you want a pen that's as cute
as a fresh mandarin, lime, or blueberry?
- [Mr. Narrator] If you wanted cute,
you could just look at the case
the Fisher Space Pen comes in.
It's like the moon's surface.
Okay, and I'm not looking at the box all day in my hand.
Also, I don't know why you would subject yourself
to writing over grease?
Just use another piece of paper?
- [Mr. Narrator] My pen is an EDC,
it could be in your family for generations!
Paper.
For something small to write things down,
check out the Maruman Into-One Mini Binder.
Because you can put in different styles of refills
and accessories, it's customizable to fit your exact needs.
It can hold approximately 60 sheets of B7 size paper,
which is just slightly bigger than an index card.
Plus, the Into-One features plastic covers
that are easy to clean
and can withstand an accidental spill.
Check out our "How to Fill Small Notebooks" video
linked in the card above
to see how we use the Into-One!
- [Stephanie] But, if you don't need
all of that customization,
why not write in a Life Noble Notebook
that's just as cute as your pen?
It features an attractive, vintage cover design
with gold embossing and cream-colored paper
that is easy on the eyes.
Additionally, its paper is resistant
to feathering and bleedthrough,
so it's a great option for pencil, pen,
and fountain pen users alike.
Choose from plain, rule, and graph styles.
If you like having matching stationery,
this notebook is available in sizes as large as A4.
- [Mr. Narrator] You don't need to keep buying notebooks,
you really only need, like, one binder.
- [Stephanie] But binders are clunky.
Where am I supposed to store loose paper
when I'm done with it?
Another binder??
- [Mr. Narrator] (blows raspberry) Well at least my binders
are customizable!
I don't see your notebook having pre-made time tables
or to-do lists.
- [Stephanie] Yeah, and I can just write those in!
With my cute pen!
Scissors.
- [Mr. Narrator] Midori XS Compact Scissors may be small,
but they don't sacrifice any functionality.
Push the center tab to extend the scissor blades
and open the handles.
The blades, measuring 4.5 cm,
can comfortably cut through sheets of paper,
and the handles are long enough to hold in your hand.
Use the tab to lock the retracted scissor blades in place,
so they don't poke holes in your bag.
These scissors are available on their own
and in the Midori XS Kit,
which contains even more small stationery essentials.
- [Stephanie] The world is more than just black and white
and your scissors should be too.
These mini Sun-Star Stickyle Scissors are so adorably small
they could be confused for toy scissors.
And while you probably won't want to use them
for big crafting projects,
the Stickyle can handle clothing tags
and loose threads without issue.
They pop open automatically when uncapped
and can be used with just your thumb
and a couple of fingers.
They do appear small enough that you could lose them
just by looking at them, but, thankfully,
the loop attached to the cap
can be fastened onto a key ring.
- [Mr. Narrator] What are these? Scissors for ants?
- [Stephanie] If I want to feel like a giant
when I'm using my cute, small scissors,
that's the truth I'm going to stand in.
- [Mr. Narrator] I don't even think
you're able to cut through a single sheet of paper
with those.
- [Stephanie] You would know
what the Stickyle was capable of,
if you watched the JetPens Tries Mini Stationery video.
- [Mr. Narrator] Rulers.
Always have a ruler and straightedge on hand
with the Nakabayashi Bookmark Ruler.
Because it's magnetic,
you can fold it over a page in your notebook
to mark your place without adding extra bulk.
Plus, you won't have to worry about losing your place
if your notebook gets knocked around in your backpack!
Use it for math and science diagrams or planner layouts.
It comes in three modern colors and two sizes:
15 centimeters and 25 centimeters,
which are marked in millimeters.
- [Stephanie] A similar two-in-one tool,
the compact Hightide Clip Ruler
attaches to the pages in your notebook
and serves as a thin bookmark.
It features a "zero" measurement
that starts at the very edge of the ruler,
so there's no annoying space between the actual edge
and the first marking.
It measures up to 10 centimeters,
with markings every millimeter on one side
and every half-centimeter on the other.
Available in a rainbow of colors,
you can pick the one that best suits your style.
- [Mr. Narrator] At least my ruler takes up zero space.
- [Stephanie] Your ruler can't even lay flat
when you use it!
- [Mr. Narrator] And your ruler
can't even measure past 10 centimeters!
- [Stephanie] Bags.
- [Mr. Narrator] Carry your essentials
with the Lihit Lab Smart Fit Carrying Pouch.
Its main, cushioned compartment and smaller pockets
can store pens and an A6 size notebook
along with your phone and wallet.
It also can be worn in various ways.
Use it as a waist bag by snapping the straps
on the back around your belt.
Use it as a bag-in-bag organizer
to keep your items all in one place inside a backpack.
Or, use it as a crossbody bag
when combined with a shoulder belt.
- [Stephanie] Viewer, look at this bag right now
and tell me it's not the cutest thing you've seen all day.
I rest my case.
We thought the Doughnut Macaroon Mini Backpack was small,
but it pales in comparison to the Tiny Crossbody Bag.
Its main compartment is just the right size
if you prefer a phone, keys, wallet lifestyle
and its front pocket is large enough
for a lip balm or earphone case.
It maintains the same look found in other Doughnut backpacks
despite its diminutive size,
and is available in some already existing colors.
For extra cuteness, check out the Fluffy Series,
which you've already acknowledged
as being the cutest thing you've seen all day.
- [Mr. Narrator] Look, your bag is all form, zero function.
- [Stephanie] Uh, my bag is for fashionable minimalists.
- [Mr. Narrator] The only thing you can fit in your bag
is your tiny scissors.
- [Mr. Narrator] So which of these small products
do you prefer?
It was the practical, right?
- [Stephanie] No. It was the cute, obviously.
- [Mr. Narrator] Eh, I don't think so.
Let us know in the comments below
so we can put this issue to rest.
- [Stephanie] AKA, let us know
you liked all of the cute things more.
- [Mr. Narrator] You can shop all of these products
and more, linked in the description below,
and on JetPens.com, the place for pen and stationery lovers.
- [Stephanie] And be sure to subscribe to our newsletter,
to see new stationery of all sizes
and varying levels of cuteness and, I guess, practicality.
- [Mr. Narrator] Thanks for watching!
(production beep)
- [Stephanie] And now I will fight this man.
Yes, choose your fighter, myself or Narrator San.
Now we fight! (chuckles)
(production beep)
- [Mr. Narrator] How does Stephanie say it?
We've all looked at a little kitten or puppy
and instinctually went, "Aww."
But have you ever looked at a tiny pair of scissors
and had the same reaction?
No.
- [Stephanie] And then, Narrator San goes,
"What are these? Scissors for ants?
These scissors need to be three times bigger." (laughs)
- [Mr. Narrator] Haven't I said enough weird stuff
to (laughs), your bag is all form, zero function.
The only thing you can fit in your bag
is your tiny scissors.
(production beep)
Yeah, it's like, aww, it's, you know, we're, it's fine,
we were just kidding. (laughs)
(upbeat music)
