The Easter egg hunt continues with the Sailor Nonble Night Blue Fountain pen. The list of Sailor Special Edition Pens is long, much longer than I could have ever expected. And you really never know when you're going to find one. This one was found on Ebay, but you gotta snatch them quick because they're … Continue reading Sailor Nonble Night Blue
Review: Lamy Dialog 3 Piano White
This pen has been on my wishlist for some time and yet I never seriously considered purchasing it until recently. Not because I couldn't afford to purchase it, and not because I didn't think it was a beautiful pen, but because when I look at the Lamy Dialog 3, I could either see myself loving … Continue reading Review: Lamy Dialog 3 Piano White
The Vintage Flex Pen – Waterman
So I've said before that I'm on the search for the perfect flex pen. I know that nothing will come as close to the perfection of a dip pen with a Nikko G, or a Blue Pumpkin, or my personal favorite the Brause 66 nib. Not unless you use those nibs on a fountain pen, … Continue reading The Vintage Flex Pen – Waterman
Leuchttrum1917 Special Edition Red Dots Notebook
So with the new year comes a new Bullet Journal, for those of us who Bujo. My 2018 Bujo was the original Leuchtturm and since I'm such a fan I wanted to try the next notebook up by the same brand. Turns out for once I didn't have to buy a notebook online at Amazon, … Continue reading Leuchttrum1917 Special Edition Red Dots Notebook
Shout Out: The Stickerrific Store
As an avid bullet journaler I'm always looking for ways to decorate my monthly, or weekly spreads. Sometimes I want it to be very simple, while other times I want it to be a little bit more artistic. And as much as I love to draw, it just takes too damn long. I have to … Continue reading Shout Out: The Stickerrific Store
FireSider Glass: The Implosion Grip Jellyfish Pen
When I was a kid my Dad bought me a glass pen from a road side vendor in Venice Italy, but I had no idea what to do with it. I didn't really understand the idea of dipping the nib in ink and writing with it. It was a beautiful pen made of blue glass … Continue reading FireSider Glass: The Implosion Grip Jellyfish Pen
Sailor Cocktail Series: Tequila Sunrise
I wish I would have known about the Sailor Cocktail Series pens, years ago. The Sailor Blue Lagoon is one of the prettiest pens I've ever seen and apparently a whole lot of people felt the same way, because that beauty is gone for good. Luckily Tequila Sunrise was not. I think it's safe to … Continue reading Sailor Cocktail Series: Tequila Sunrise
Sailor Pen Point Blue Hawaii
I've been on a major Sailor kick lately. I've written with a large selection of pens, and there are always two brands that really stand out to me. One of which is Sailor. When I found out that Sailor did these special edition collaborations with other brands, my mind was immediately blown. And I cried … Continue reading Sailor Pen Point Blue Hawaii
Emilio Braga Notebook
This brand caught my eye while I was scrolling instagram. They hit most of the right buttons for me. They're made in both B5 and A4 sizes. They're bright and colorful. They have a hardbound cover, and plain cream paper. BUT, could I used my fountain pens with them? I was crossing my fingers on … Continue reading Emilio Braga Notebook
Why The Conklin Duraflex Fountain Pen Isn’t For Me
So I love pens. I love writing with them and drawing with them, plain and simple. But finding the right flex pen I've learned is quite difficult. Having used calligraphy dip pens for some time, I've become very picky when it comes to flex nibs. If it doesn't make that ultra thin line on the … Continue reading Why The Conklin Duraflex Fountain Pen Isn’t For Me
