    This was fun! You are a natural with videos. I’m so glad you liked the samples. The bottles were purchased at an auction from an old turkey farm. They were brand new so I knew they were safe to use for ink.

      Thank you so much, Robin! I love those cute bottles. They sort of remind me of the little Cracker Barrel syrup bottles, haha. I enjoyed swatching these, and have since put 4 of them into pens! I'm loving them! Thank you so much for your generosity! 🥰

    Great video, thank you for sharing. You asked about fountain turquoise. A lot of Birmingham pen company ibis are named after colors from Pittsburgh (where they are from). There is a huge fountain right on the "point" where the 3 rivers meet. I think that color is what the basin is painted to give the water a clean blue color. So fountain turquoise is that fountain's color.🐸

    • @gingerpeachy
      @gingerpeachy  Рік тому

      Ohhh thank you! I didn't feel like the "fountain" was in relation to "fountain PENS," and I was hoping I was right, because I would've felt dumb if it was just basically "fountain pen turquoise." I'm glad there's an actual fountain. 😂 Thank you for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed it! 🥰

    I love love love BPC inks!!! i feel the 100mL bottles are kinda overkill with the amount in them, hoping beyond hope that they eventually offer all the inks in the 30mL as well as the 100mL most are currently offered in. this would also allow the batches to be stretched further giving more people the opportunity to get the various inks. just my two cents lol. awesome video!!!!

    • @gingerpeachy

    Several of my favorites fro BPC are Heron (a blue-green), Prickly Pear (a magenta -purple) and Emerald Fusion (a darkish green that sheens bright emerald green).

    🐸 Ive really been loving Pelikan Rose Quartz. I’ll be curious to hear what you think after you’ve used it a bit. I’ve only used it with a titanium nib with and ebonite feed so I haven’t run into any issues with it feeling dry, but your comment about it being a little dry makes me want to try it in a different pen so I can get a better feel for it’s flow. I love how it shades though. I didn’t expect it to be such a pretty color when they first announced it and were showing teasers.

    • @gingerpeachy
      @gingerpeachy  Рік тому +1

      I’ve got it in a medium Jowo steel nib, and it doesn’t feel as dry as I expected! Honestly not really at all. It isn’t the wettest ink, and it sort of goes down lighter and darkens as it dries. I am enjoying it!
