I got my expanded in the mail yesterday from the link you had in your description for Amazon. Made in China, pale yellow sticker. Paper felt different than the clearance pocket daily that I said I got with the good paper. Testing confirmed it's a "bad" one. I knew it was going to be a gamble. I don't have prime so I had paid 25.00. I will still enjoy it though. Still many things I can write and draw in it with. I will have to see when I'm done with it if I feel I'd spend 25.00 if I knew it was going to be the same quality. Very strange Moleskine does this and doesn't seem to care. I'm sure if they made sure to only produce the "good" ones, their sales would go up! A couple videos ago you did recommend a fountain pen for me when I asked and I just want to say thanks! Thanks for sharing! You are spoiling us with your uploads :)
I always have Filofax envy but I know what works and has always worked for me for years are traveler’s company notebooks and I don’t even like rings I just find Filofax pretty 😂
Moleskine has gotten very pricey in my country as of late but luckily I found a local company making a notebook very similar to Moleskine but with better and more consistent paper. I have yet to test my dip pen though. And best thing it is half the price of Moleskine
Teas that I love are the Blueberry Wild Child from Natural Grocers, Stash Spice Dragon Red Chai or Stash Double Spice Chai, and Bigelow Constant Comment. I used to love Celestial Seasonings Bengal Spice but haven’t had it for about a year or so. Don’t know if it’s still as good.
@@SeaweedKisses the lined is not the expanded. It has no frills just lined paper. I just started journaling so I am starting smaller. You gave me the appreciation for moleskine.🥰🖋️📖
I like your moleskin explorations. I actually love the soft cover best, but am disappointed in thin paper. Is it possible to know which one has the thicker paper? Cheers!🐇
Not that I know of. It’s a risk knowing which ones are good quality or not. If you’re wanting thicker paper, though, Leuchtturm makes notebooks that are 120gsm. My favorite “thicker” paper is my Midori. Their notebooks work well will just about everything❤
👉 FYI- This is my last Moleskine purchase for a while🤭UPDATE VIDEO HERE: ua-cam.com/video/jUU6OIlDLiM/v-deo.html
I bought the blue expanded. Thank you for your videos. I’ve learned so much!
Mmm hmm lol
@@BoomerVonsMomHope you enjoy your Moleskines! ❤❤

🥹awww. I’m placing an AMZ order today or tomorrow. Hoping for a Moleskine from Vietnam.
Someone needs to confront Moleskine with all of this data! These are really good experiments and maybe they can get to the bottom of it 🧐
Agree!!
I have. It’s pathetic for this expensive of a notebook. They say it’s only meant for their pens and pencils.
Hey Happy Weekend! I just loveeeee your videos. They give me peace….no pressure for perfection. So authentic. Happy journaling.
@@caramelcoffee924 Happy Weekend!! So happy to have you here 🩷🫶
Moleskine has come up with a good revenue style. Buying the extra notebooks to test for the quality easter egg.
😂😂Unfortunately for them, this is my last batch for a while

Thank you for sharing! I'll have to give those suggestions a try. Yes, the Bengal Spice is still good. Just had it the other night!
My favorite tea company is Artillery Tea Company. No chemicals in their tea bags, tea leaves, multiples cups from one tea bag, come in a tin. ❤
Thank you for sharing! I’ll check them out❤
hi queennnnnnn
Hiii🤭🩷
I ordered a lined and a blank. The lined was better quality. It had a green sticker. The blank was a yellow sticker.
Happy you were able to get a good one, at least ❤🎉 Is the lined the expanded version, or the dated daily planner?
@@SeaweedKisses the lined is not the expanded. It has no frills just lined paper. I just started journaling so I am starting smaller. You gave me the appreciation for moleskine.🥰🖋️📖
@@SeaweedKisses I bought the blank for water color. 💗💜🩵
Can you do a whats in my bag or purse please?
Ugh, I ordered one and it was not from Vietnam. No problem, I don’t use fountain pens anyway. Mine was manufactured in China.
I have 2 made in China that still work well with dark gel and fp inks, too! Have you done an ink test?

Please tell me what that Ivory gold and black Fountain Pen is ??
It’s a Benu pen. Model is from the Briolette collection, called Luminous Amber ✨
@@SeaweedKisses thank you
I ordered an expanded from Amazon and they sent a regular size. The sticker said expanded but the wrapper said regular. I returned it.
Yes. Luckily Amazon makes it easy to return if you’re not satisfied ❤
I just cant see how they can tolerate having such vast difference in their products. I just wont buy any now, reverted to Hobinichi.
It’s so apparent that the quality is very inconsistent. Wonder why Moleskine thinks it’s acceptable?😢
The paper looked bad when you closed it to the camera
How many moleskines do you own omg
They have no expiration date. 😸🤭✒️
7…in this edition. 😅
