I ordered the Wancher Urushi Dream Pen knowing full well that it would take 4 to 5 months to ship due to the kickstarter. Everyone that's ever invested in kickstarter items knows that it's months before you see the finished product. And yes sometimes those timelines are stretched. But I've never had one stretch … Continue reading Review: Wancher Urushi Fountain Pen
I first saw this ink swatched at Wonderpens in Toronto and I was much intrigued, but it was sold out at the time so I couldn't purchase it. Incidentally I forgot about it until I was perusing Amazon and I saw it listed for $25. The price teeters on the edge of where I draw … Continue reading Platinum Ink: Lavender Black
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
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.

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

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
I love any company that will offer up a free ink with the purchase of a pen. And thats what the Birmingham Pen Company was doing when I purchased this orange delight. It's true, there's nothing I love more than a sale, but that wasn't the only reason for purchasing the Liquid Hot Magma Pen. … Continue reading Birmingham Pen Company – The Liquid Hot Magma Fountain Pen
So I was looking for a Urushi Pen, but I didn't just want any old one, lol. (As if any Urushi pen could be anything less than stellar regardless of where it came from). What I mean is, I wanted one that was custom, and handmade. There are two small pen companies that I've come … Continue reading Review: Urushi Emperor Fountain Pen by Artus Pens
The Twsbi Eco was my very first demonstrator pen. The idea that a pen can change color with new ink, warms my fickle heart. So Twsbi is a pen brand that I like to keep up with. I saw the Twsbi Go launch on their instagram page and I thought it looked cute, fun, and … Continue reading Review: Twsbi GO!
If I could talk about a stroke of luck, I would put this pen on the very top of my list.

Instagram … Continue reading Sailor MitaClub Original – Shooting Star of Jonuma Fountain Pen
