Video

Always great videos! Any color postcard is fine if you still have any :) glad you are back to work and you have your house back to yourself!

I love the water lily koi and primary manipulation pens! I just love the swirls and variation of color in the resins. Sometimes I really feel more compelled to spend more money on a custom pen because someone actually made them versus spending $300 on a platinum pen. I have purchased 5 custom pens so far and I always sit and admire them before I start writing with them. I was looking at one with orange in it and normally I'm not an orange person. But I guess it's a summer color. I hope you get one you love at the SF penshow.

I've done a lot of hiking and I would love to hear more about your hiking boots. 😆

I can’t remember if you finished reading Amor Towles’ A Gentleman in Moscow, but when I saw your Lincoln Highway postcard, if his novel by that name is anywhere near your TBR, YES! YES! But maybe read his Rules of Civility first.

I would love to see a gold nib lamy video. (as if I haven't already purchased some!) 😊

Definitely winter for our trip to Mordor! The fiery pit will feel so warm when get there.

RED

I have this pencase in one of my wishlists! Soooooo pretty!

I would love the red postcard!

Ordered the Benu Edelweiss, quite beautiful. Came with an extra nib appreciated

Oh wow i love that waterlily koi pen, sadly it is out of stock🤤

Also I agree with you on the screw on caps to post. I love my twsbi mini's, they are a great size for me, weight and they write so nicely (especially their stub nibs imo of course lol). But it's amazing how having to do that twist motion over and over gets to you if you do it a lot in one sitting while journaling. Maybe the 590's will have a cap and seal like the Pilot Prera's haha, that would be amazing!

Also, I bought a pen from Bonecrusher 7 (not this color, but Primary Manipulation 4 - Hope I get it and it’s not out of stock!) based on seeing the one in your video, I was confident knowing it’s got the same Jowo #6 nib as my Esties which I love. Thanks, love watching your videos like this one especially, as I learn so much. ❤

Ohhhh I’d love the blue card ❤️😍🥰

I’m considering a waterman carene- I hope you do share your thoughts and possibly compare it to the Pilot E95s..I like Pilot but hate the converter. Is there a gold or steel nib on the Carene ….

Great video ! I’m glad to see the weekly is working out for you for your mail log! I’ve never tried Sterling Ink inserts- so I got 2 - a standard size which I may use for a future pen log notebook and a passport size which I want to use as a penpal address book. I hope you’re having a good weekend so far. 😄

I’ve gone through this multiple times now. You’ve given me some good ideas. I’ve refined how I use my own planner systems a bit this year and decided it’s okay if I have the Standard size weeks. I will probably try Sterling Ink this year. And I’m going to keep using the Hobo Weeks as an EDC. It seems a bit pricey for jotting to do lists and work tasks but it’s small enough to carry with me and it makes me happy so it seems silly not to continue. Part of the guilt is that when I’m between show there is so much less to keep track of but I love that you just use some when necessary. Plus I have a lot of stickers so I could choose some larger ephemera to decorate this pages if I don’t want them blank. So many ideas. I’m probably going to go through it again when I’m back from my trip to organize myself. Work should slow down considerably soon. Knock on wood.

I, too, do not enjoy cleaning. 😅 I love that list you found and am going to see if I can download it. We do the basic things to keep the house running, but the stuff on the list is very ad-hoc and it turns out not even a fancy hobonichi weeks is enough motivation for me to plan them out in advance 😝

I love hanging out with your pen and ink talk. I learn things I wouldn’t think to ask. ☺️

Very cool. I am glad it was relatively easy for you, and you have it the way you want. The only thing, and it's not a big deal, but the Sailor logo on the nib won't match the cap on the black PG. Tinkers Unite.

I use a JLP CREATIONS THE AUTHOR it has 68gsm tomoe river its amazing it comes in plain dot grid or lined and it has a beautiful leatherette cover I have like 9 of them they are a bit pricey but I think they are worth it they also recently came out with a b5 size which I am going to get next year for my bullet journal they come with 192 off white pages which are very nice :) I hope that helps :)

I always love seeing how everyone else is using their planners and journals! I love your handwriting, so everything you do looks really good to me!

Cleaning is bottom of my list too 😂😂😂 I loved your grey and blue reference binders❤❤❤

Tasks not completed on a day get an arrow showing they have been moved to new day. Items started have a circle beside them, then I put a line through the circle once done. Tasks that no longer need to be thought about get a line through the task. For work a curved arrow with initials shows I've delegated it. Pulling on the bullet journal principles, but making it work for me.

At 37:02, you asked about the meaning of the writing on your washi. I looked it up in a dictionary, and i found “lovey dovey, head over heels in love.” It’s like, *love* love. 😆

Love hearing your thought process. It helps me reflect on my own 🙂

I tend to make a cup of coffee/tea when I sit down to watch chatty YT videos so I do feel like I'm sitting there with the person behind the camera ;) You got some lovely new goodies to play with - enjoy them, you don't have to justify anything to any of us!

I’ve swapped some nibs successfully, (like on Jinhaos and cheap Pilots), but I’m way too afraid to break my Sailors. But thanks for showing us it can be done!

This did indeed look super scary! Great job! 😅👍🏻🖋️🌼

Well, I'm convinced - no Sailor nib swapping for me! Too scary. Even though I can imagine use cases for which a swap would be quite handy. Bravo to you; I'm afraid of breaking the feed.

The written love note across the screen sent me 😂😂😂

Great job! I have no idea how people are so brave to try out all this nib swapping but I'm happy for the tutorial. Nothing like feeling accomplished.

Babypoop 😂😂😂😂😂 made me spit my morning coffee out

There is no such thing as an unswapable nib 😊 there are brands that actually make it easy on you and those that make it difficult for you. As long as you know what you’re doing you’re fine. Thanks to all the great tinkerers who have done it all and shared the knowledge with the rest of us ✨ Great job! Have fun with your Sailors

this is such a cool video! thank you for sharing your experiment!

This was so fun and I loved that "I am aware". I was chuckling along. I have the same black Sailor M and was hoping to do a Just Turnings or Jowo housing with it someday. Though I actually quite like having a black pen. Love having options though!

Good luck !!!! Let's see what happens

I’ve been wanting to buy those Lobito stamps as well! So cute 😍

I also got the sticky notes from OURS. They are just so cute. And I love sticky notes and paper pads in general.

You have a wonderful collection, I'm also a big fan of Sojourner 😊Never tried standard size though, how does it compares in width and height to the travelers company ones?

If anyone wants to know the ラブラブ says "love love" (pronounced rabu-rabu). Just a cutesy onomatopoeia wording :)

It's always fun to hang out with you! Great video
