I put two layers of clear nail polish on my #’s on my Tombows so I know which ones I have when people ask. Really enjoyed this video and may be getting me the gold and bronze pens. 😊
Ahhh your pro gear slim collection is beautiful. I’m very tempted to get one, just waiting for a color combination I can’t live without, I think. I’m also always so impressed by your Tombow color scheme! Whenever I buy individual ones, I end up not liking the colors I picked. Maybe I should buy one of their pre-packaged sets, heh. Thank you for sharing as always! I love your videos.
Hi Lindsey! For a non-leather pencase, I highly recommend checking out Rickshaw Bagworks. They have a super soft interior to keep your pen safe and free of scratches. Lots of styles and fun designs (or all black if you prefer that and you can customize with a fun interior color).
Loved the video! What suggestions do you have for someone wanting to get into fountain pens? I don't know where to start and how do you figure out what's your preference without buying expensive pens?
I would start with a kaweco sports ef if you like a thin line. Lamy has a larger nib and larger pen body. And if you prefer a weighted pen you can try twsbi i like dimond 580 but most expensive out of the 3 they have an entry pen as well ecco. Good luck
Love the pen case. Thanks for sharing your pen collection. Have you tried Uni Jetstream Multi Pen 4 and 1? It is four colors plus a pencil and is same ink as the hobonichi pen. The pencil mechanism is easy to refill. Plus eraser under cap( happy when figured that out) it’s tiny but works for small quick fixes.
I just yesterday got the set of mildliners that you showed in the thumbnail for this video. I'm definitely gonna check out some of the pens you named in this video, thanks ❤️
Hey Lindsey!! Where did you get a replacement nib for vanishing point? I got an EF from jet pens and felt like it was more scratchy then what came in my original pen.
Thanks for another excellent, informative video. A question about the De Atramentis ink: did the bottle (45 ml?) last two years with daily use? Also, roughly how long between pen fills (approximate; I know it depends on usage and differs from person to person). I'm trying to figure out if I'd be better covered with cartridges as I'm out of the house a lot but rarely take a bag, just stuff things into jacket and jean pockets.
mine lasted about 2 years (I probably have another 3-4 refills in my current bottle - so just over i suspect). I refill once a month, or top it up every time I travel. I actually use a cartridge and refill it with an ink syringe. The cartridges hold more volume for me than a converter
Hi Lindsey, I was just wondering why you get questioned over the Deatramentis ink ruining your VP pen? I just bought the VP and already use the Deatramentis ink in a Kaweco sport which works well. Obviously, as you mentioned you have had no issues but why are people asking, what is the consensus of opinion is there an issue with this combo or something? Just wondering if you have any idea? Thanks in advance!
I’m not entirely sure - but I believe it’s because the ink is more permanent. If you don’t clean pens regularly or use it daily I think the ink can clog the feed from what I’ve heard
oops i'll know for next time. I'm going to post a close up on instagram if you want to see them closer over there. I edit on a larger screen so I think i assume it's more legible than it is.

Have been looking at getting my very first fountain pen and am so excited to watch this, because I love your content!! ♥️🍁
thank you!!

thanks for watching! I have a whole other bag of tombows I've purchased but didn't end up loving so this is more of my curated pallet
The feedback is the best part of the sailors. I love that sound.

I second this! They really are a great storage option.
I'll have to check them out. thanks for the recommendation

Hi Lindsey. Just saw your page. Been collecting pens for years and have acquired a decent collection. Always good to see someone else’s viewpoint.
Awesome! Thank you!
The new mildliners are my FAVOURITE. They're so satisfying and the olive is perfect. The bronze uniball signo is also a staple of mine.
yes! I love the olive and the copper the most from this set
I love the Sakura Sumo Grip pencil in 0.5 for all my pencil lovers with small handwriting

Thanks for sharing. I’ve started my own fountain pen collection. Loving my twisb and Lamy. ❤
thanks for watching! I've always wanted to pick up a Lamy, but waiting for that perfect color.

Hope you enjoy it!

@@lindseyscribbles Thank you -- that's really helpful. (Your videos were my inspiration for taking the plunge with this pen.)
Hi is the document ink able to handle mildliners/ highlighters or it smears? The archive is oos in jet pens :( TIA

@@lindseyscribbles ah, I see. That makes sense. Thanks so much!
Always love your videos!!
Thank you!!
Love this. Love your content.
thanks!
What is the name of the case please and where did you purchase it from :)
Yuruliku FLAT tool case - found mine on jouranlstation.net
I don't see where the pen case is linked?
it's currently sold out but updated the description. The name of the pencase is the Yuruliku FLAT tool case. I found mine on journalstation.net
Thank you for a lovely review! I would love to see the swatch page as a close up! Maybe on instagram if you do not want to edit the video?
Will do!!
As small as Lindsey’s handwriting is I’m really surprised we weren’t zoomed in closer so we could truly see the inks on the paper 🙁
I think the camera auto focused on her hands so the paper and ink was blurry.
@@dianagable6640 It wasn’t that it was blurry.
@@goddessdejour just mine then. And yes it was small too.
oops i'll know for next time. I'm going to post a close up on instagram if you want to see them closer over there. I edit on a larger screen so I think i assume it's more legible than it is.
