Not too long ago I shared my Ultimate Budget Binder. I am SO happy so many people loved it. It made my day hearing from each one of you. Let’s all get this budget thing down together, okay? Several people asked if I’d consider doing a mini binder. At first I thought- nope, too much work. (because these binders take a lot of time to do) But then I thought about it more and decided to give the second option, the mini. It’s mostly the same as the first version only in mini size. I added some tabs to separate the sections.
Wondering where you can get supplies for the mini binder? Here are some of the products I used:
Affiliate links are used below. I wanna keep it honest and all that.
MY LATEST VIDEOS- Mini Binder
- Mini Sheet Protectors – to slide important documents in
- Mini Tabs (if you’d prefer these over the ones I created)
- Mini Paper Pack – so that you can jot down notes
- Mini Binder Pockets – easy to stick receipts in these
- Laminator – I sing the praises of this thing any chance I get because I use it A LOT. It isn’t necessary but it’s worth it. In my humble opinion.
- Laminating pouches – to use with the laminator
I thought you might want to see it in action so I made a little video. Set to All the Pennies by Mindy Gledhill – could there be a better song than this one for a budget binder? I think not.

I was wondering how you shrink these down from the larger size? I’m working on a weight loss budget binder of sorts and I want it to be mini just like this. I’d love to know how you do this stuff in general. Is there a program that you use? Like some type of photo editing software? I use your larger budget binder with a combination of a few others and love it. It has helped me tremendously and keeps me on track. Thank you.
I tried printing the mini-budget binder pintables and it kept telling me the page could not be displayed…what can I do to get them…I already have all the supplies needed…please help
Thank you so much for your binders!! They are a big help to me and my family! I appreciate all the hard work you have put into them. And for sharing with all of us! Thank you, thank you!
Thanks so much!!
Thank you so much for sharing! This little binder is perfect :) and and thank you for sharing your story on your “Printable Budget Binder” page! I am hoping keeping this binder will help with my unnecessary spending. Thanks again!

Your binders are FABULOUS! Thank you so much!
Hi Mickey :)
I saw the Mini Budget Binder on Pinterest and knew I had to make one. I got my supplies at Staples tonight and I’m getting ready to start printing and assembling it. I love meal planning, so having those pages printed out will come in very handy. My hubby and I have been married 19 years (just this past Tuesday) and I have never been good at budgeting…knowing how much is coming in and how much is going out). Now that we plan on sending our daughter to a private school, and looking into getting a newer car, I feel like I need to keep better track of our spending….and I know my hubby will appreciate it!
Thanks for the great resource…I love the colorful print!

Is there an editable template or a simple way to create the same type of mini binder tabs you have for the mini binder? I’ve used all the ones you’ve created, but I wanted to add a few others and can’t seem to edit the ones I’ve downloaded. Your help would be greatly appreciated!! This binder is exactly what I’ve been searching for! Thank you for sharing!!
May I get the printable pages for the mini budget binder sent to me email because I can not seem to download them?
Thanks!
I’m having the same trouble. :(
This is EXACTLY what I have been searching for!!!!! Thank you sooooo much!
You should do one for a medical binder. My son needs one so i can stay orginized.
This is great! I just got married and this will help motivate me so much more!! Thank you!!!
Just wanted to know…with the mini binder, are you cutting the pages in half (because of how they printed out) to go into the binder and can I use a regular hole punch for the mini sheets?
Thank you very much for the printables!
Hi there, this is so cool. I really would like to get this but I can’t seem to down load it
Hello! I love this idea. I really want to begin this project. But I as well am having trouble downloading this file. I have Adobe but for some reason it wont let me. Could I also have this emailed? Thanks so much!!
THIS IS SOOOOOO GREAT! THANKS FOR SHARING
You’re so welcome Lisa! ;)
Hi Mique! I featured your Mini Budget Binder here on my blog for What I Love Wednesday: http://bit.ly/1drqVZW.
Thank you SO MUCH for the printables!! I love my Mini Budget Binder! :)
Hey! I LOVE this and I am in the process of ordering all my “stuff.” :) Is there any way you can send me an editable template for the mini binder? Or….could you make one that says, “Meals this week”? I would like to have everything right there on hand. :)
Thank you! And thank you for creating this awesome binder! Can’t wait to use it!
I love this! I can’t wait to use your budget binders! I’m thinking about using both…one for on the go and one for home. So i don’t have the chance to forget to write things down. The only thing I changed was the month at a glance simply because I don’t have that many bills…thank God! Haha, I am so very excited to get my family and I on track. Do you have an Important Documents binder? For Lease agreements, bills, important receipts (for big purchases & also bills paid), and family documents?
Is there any way you could send me the mini budget organizer to my email? It isn’t letting me download it from here from some reason. I’d really appreciate it. Thanks!
I love this!!! Thank you so much!!! I can’t use the month at a glance (cause i can’t plan that far ahead! LOL) But i made a week at a glance and the rest is perfect!! Thank you so much for sharing these!! :)
I have been trying for several days to download the pdf file for the “mini ultimate budget binder” and have had no success in completing the form. Is there a problem some where? Can I have the file sent by email?
Sincerely Mary Odell
