2. Plastic cover → included for basic protection of your pages

4. Inserts → weekly, monthly, daily, or specialty layouts
5. Accessories (optional) → dashboards, tabs, dividers, page markers

To start your ring binder planner, you’ll need:

1. Binder → A5 or Personal size
2. Inserts → weekly, monthly, daily, or specialty layouts
3. Accessories (optional) → dashboards, tabs, dividers, page markers
