I spent an inordinate amount of time searching for Bible tabs, both in person and online, and researching through product pictures and reviews to find a set that would meet all my expectations -- since I take Bible very seriously, and had just purchased a new one*° with which I knew I'd be spending much time.1) I wanted high quality2) I wanted ease of application, use, and function3) I wanted style and/or aesthetic (preferably a matching theme to my Bible)4) I wanted simple Mr. Pen leads the market when checking all boxes, and I found the company extremely reliable in this regard.The quality of the tabs are unmatched by others I've used before and those I haven't, but researched.They are made of a laminated paper material, similar to a thin cardstock, and use a pre-fold indentation rather than perforation to fold; which makes for sturdy quality and smooth edges, respectively.The font is simple yet stylish, and easily read and intelligible on both sides (which can't be said for others on the market) and the feature of having text on the back make finding books a breeze.They are flexible as opposed to stiff, which means I can gently brush them out of the way to find what I'm looking for, and also means they're less likely to rip any pages in the process.Contrary to other customer claims, the tabs are *NOT* thick and they *DO NOT* add any bulk or overall thickness to Bible, so long as they're firmly folded and sealed, rather than left hollow.The tabs are also rather easy and foolproof to apply.The included guide for application was very useful, and was a must for my purchasing decision.It made application extremely easy, albeit time-consuming -- if for no other reason than placing 66 tabs (or more, depending) with near precision will. take. time.For the process, itself, I set aside two hours of my time, without distractions, and used up almost every minute of it.I lined-up my tabs instead of making them scattered, and used, not just the included guide but also, previously placed tabs to do so.*I realized throughout this experience that the margins of my Bible are not consistent throughout (that they vary from wide to extremely thin) which meant that I had no consistent marker about how far from the vertical edges I should place the guide, as many times the margin was narrower than the tab base, and I didn't want to cover any text.*(I, therefore, would recommend others make a mental note of how close to the edge you plan to place the guide, and check for inconsistencies in margin widths, to likewise keep the tabs consistent throughout in regard to how far they protrude outwards.)*This, of course, does not reflect the product, itself, but rather serves as a note to the process, as deeper-set tabs will get lost amidst one another.The process of folding and sticking the tabs was also easy, and I appreciated the fact that mistakes were easily reversible, so long as the tabs hadn't been tightly stuck together yet.For instance, when accidentally applying a tab crooked to the page, the tab could be gently peeled off the page to realign. Likewise, when folding, if one half of the tab misaligned with the other half of the tab, so long as both halves hadn't been pressed firmly together, they could be carefully separated and realigned. I experienced this a few times, and, thus, got into the habit of only slightly pressing them together until I was sure that they were as I wanted them.(This, of course, shouldn't be a problem for the less-meticulous.)As for the style, it was really a selling point for me.Most tabs on the market are extremely bold and colourful, which my Bible is not.I wanted something that wasn't boring, but also that matched my Bible (and my personality).The theme of these tabs not only match my Bible, but are cute, stylish, and yet remain rather simple and elegant with simple paisley, geometric, dots, and line designs.That said, and maybe it's just me, but I found the market extremely lacking in practical, purposeful, or schematic themes.You'll find either extremely plain and boring themes (all white, for instance) or extremely random with bright colours and bold designs (which not all Bibles are, and which don't fit all personalities.)I would love to see a colour-coded theme that differentiates between the books of Law and those of the Gospel, and maybe another for the minor profits, or Psalms and Proverbs, for instance... So they stand out.Or even a gradient of colours or designs that remain gradient even after placement, rather than just scattered and mismatched.Even in this set, Mr. Pen applied the most boring of the designs to the tabs marked for Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, 2 John, 3 John, Jude and Revelations .. and the latter four (also the last four books of the Bible) hardly distinguishable from one another... Like they just ran out of artistic ideas.It would have been nice to have, within a sea of mismatched yet thematically neutral -designed and -coloured tabs, a few important ones stand out to make them easily locatable.This would be extremely helpful and useful to those new to Bible, or using Bible for study. Or for those who merely love said books.I used one of the included blank tabs to mark the beginning of the New Testament, from the top rather than the side, just so I could easily find the gospel..... And I used another blank tab to mark my Life Verse.I also skipped the placement of Matthew, which would have been at the bottom, and placed it at the top spot, instead.... As it made more sense to me that the New Testament start fresh as such.I am grateful for the included blank tabs so that I could make these accommodations, but highly suggest intentionally useful themes for practicality purposes, and consistent or gradient colours and designs for aesthetic purposes..... Because while I do really enjoy the look of this specific set, and obviously picked it from a market of many others, Mr. Pen doesn't have much else to offer me.I have a half dozen more Bibles, two of which I'd definitely love to dress-up and personalize, but I don't see much else that suits my preferences, my style, nor my personality.I would also love to gift Bible tabs to fellow Christian friends, but find the options lacking, as there's not much in terms of neutrality, and, thus, success at matching them with someone else's Bible is unlikely -- considering that most are extremely colourful and bold with its designs, and that many, new Bibles are becoming the same.... Matching becomes difficult, especially when the themes seem random and careless. Bible Time is usually that of relaxation, quiet, peace, tranquility, and even meditation and/or prayer, thus, I believe personalization should reflect a more relaxed style and passion, or, rather, that the option should merely exist.I've seen a few other sets that might offer such, but I don't trust the quality.Mr. Pen makes the best quality tabs, hands down -- I just think there's much room on the market for more thoughtful and meticulously crafted styles and themes for those who prefer a more intentional and/or neat aesthetic. *° Bible is NLT by Tyndale, for those curious.Not my favourite translation, but an easy read, nonetheless.

The tabs are kind of thick which could be a negative but they fit perfectly on the pages. Taking the tabs off, and moving them was smooth for me. I did slightly rip a page but that was because I pulled roughly on them, but it was easily covered by the tab (shown in last picture) when I reapplied it. They look amazing and adds some character to my Bible.

I was very satisfied and highly recommended👍

The tabs make my Bible easier to navigate through. I love it!
