- The first set of pens for 2024. I am 100% in love with using this little Hobonichi Techo with ink too. I wanted to dedicate my first color scheme to something that I feel is really important at the begining of the year, and that is "self care." As always, I love to hear your thoughts in comments ❤️️
Let me know which one you liked the best! Also the pen holder is from Galen Leather (link below).

That polar bear ink is so pretty.
I loved that polar bear ink matched with the benu pen. That pen is on my wishlist. Its currently out of stock. I hope they restock it. I really enjoy your channel content. Thanks for sharing
Thank you!! I hope they restock it too. They restocked the Iced Caramel Latte some time ago, so hopefully the tea one will be restocked too!
Such a lovely color palette for the month! And adore the meaning behind it too! ❤
Thank you so much 💝
Being left handed all I can do is watch this in complete envy. Beautiful pens. Tfs ❤️
You can do it too!! I find that finding the right nib and ink combo is helpful for the fastest drying time. Check out Ru on Paper! They are left handed fountain pen ink user :)
I am left-handed as well, and I use my fountain pens almost every day. For lefties it’s just a matter of a good fast drying ink . Give it a try you will definitely enjoy it. I actually have about 16 fountain pens. I often use Rhodia paper for general writing, and the 68 gsm loose leaf paper from Jet Pens, for my own planner, (yep, I created my own). For me, this is an excellent paper for writing with fountain pens!
So pretty 😍
Great color palette for January 2024, thanks for sharing 😊.
Thanks for watching!
You are doing great with these!! I loved the sheen in the Cashmere Rose as well. Love this ink combo!!
Thanks so much!
I'm with you on that beautiful blue in k oof I need to fine me a sample of that :)
It's so good!
That Natural Green is beautiful 🤌
If my Jinhao pen worked I’d definitely use that
Oh no! I hope you can get it working :(
Cashmere Rose looks lovely, can't wait until the full bottles release!
Me too!!
I'm so glad you enjoyed the Natural Green sample! I was just looking at that exact Esterbrook pen that you have. it's gorgeous (and so is that Benu earl grey tea one). 🤩 I love your self-care rainbow colour palette for this month.
Thank you!!! I love both of the pens soo much. But, I will say the Estie has been a favorite above all since I got it. But the nibs on the Benu pens are SUPER smooth when writing.
I really want to try BENU. This one looks so gorgeous ❤
It is so beautiful. ❤️️
I love these videos so, so much! I think I would call this color scheme “Someday under the rainbow” because it feels like looking forward, dreaming of spring.
How would you say Cashmere Rose compares to other pinks in your collection? Is it more similar to Brunch Date or Australis Rose?
I love this!! Such a good naming 🥰
As for the Cashmere Rose compared to other pink inks I have, I'd say brunch date is much more brown/orange leaning, and australis rose is close, but a little more "pink." I feel like cashmere rose has a redness to it or even a deeper pink color. I don't think I have anything exact to it honestly.
7:30 What I've found helps a ton with my shimmer inks in my Jinhao 82s (I have alot😂about 8 or 9) is to tilt the pen (closed) back and forth so that the shimmer is evenly distributed in the converter. I always get a consistent shimmer that way.
Yes! I did shift the ink before writing each time :) I think I just didn't uptake enough shimmer haha
I am loving the colors you chose. I am definitely getting the Cashmere Rose when it comes out. Stinks about the shading of Ambered Adobe. It is such a pretty shading ink normally. That Benu pen 😍. I am putting that on my wish list. It is gorgeous!!! The yellow I am using this month is Robert Oster Honey Bee and I am really liking that ink. I am normally not a yellow ink fan cuz it's usually hard to read, but this one is so legible.
I am in LOVE with this Benu. It is soo fun. I have RO Honey Bee on my next list of ink purchases. It has been recommended by so many!
I audibly gasped at the Jinhou 82 in Fluorescent Coffee! One look at the price and 10 minutes later, I am a soon to be owner of one as well... oops!
Haha, they are worth the buy! So affordable and their parts can be changed around with the other pens. I made a whole bunch of "frankenpens" with them :)
Oh wow that Natural Green is so gorgeous. I told myself no new inks until my birthday but ooph i might break my rule for that one
Hahaha it is gorgeous! Just say it's an early birthday present ;)
Yes Yes.. do a review of the new Benu pen !!
I will try to get one out before the end of the month :)
I also couldn't resist that Benu Earl Grey pen - I put Lie de The in it to keep the tea theme!
That is such a good combo!! I may try that next haha
Most of my broad Benu Euphorias put down enough ink to see shading. Ive also tried using multiple brass shims (or the plastic ones that come with the Pilot Parallel) to widen the space between the tines. Try it on a cheap dry writing pen.
Sailor Pro Gear Zoom shows shading but it’s a very wide line. But it’s pricey. (FYI-The Pro Gear SLIM Zoom nib is not as wet according to Yoseka video on Sailor nibs).
Your videos are great! Really enjoy your selections!
Thank you for the tips! I have tried the brass shim on some of my other pens and it works great. I have the Sailor Pro Gear Zoom on my forever wishlist, but I'm not ready to drop $$$ for it yet haha
I'm looking to start working with fountain pens but have been worried about how the ink dries on the Hobonichi paper. I'm using a Weeks Mega for the first time and based on your swatches it looks like there isn't much bleeding/ghosting - very impressive! And omg I absolutey love that Natural Green color. So gorgeous!
Ink and fountain pens can be a little tricky as they all can behave differently on the same paper 😅 BUT the tomoe river paper always handles fountain pen ink like a champ. I have only ever experienced bleed through with really heavy handed swatches, or if the paper was already wet from something else, never had bleed through with writing.
I will say the new Sanzen TRP seems to dry faster though so not much room for blending.
@@mydandeliondiaries Thank you so much for replying! I really appreciate your advice. Personally I'm not looking to use the ink for blending purposes, so I think I'm going to look into purchasing a couple of inks from Sanze. I'll definitely follow up and let you know how it goes!
Like to see how inks behave. Thank you for this video. Might need to check out Birmingham inks.
Birmingham inks are beyond fantastic. I have over 30 bottles and each one is more wonderful than the next!
You're welcome! I have immensely enjoyed them in my pens. The FWP Brush pen is the first one I have had trouble with but I guarantee it is the pens problem haha.
Also, do you have recommendations for Birmingham Pen Co inks? I really like that polar bear ink, but also the galactic one. If you could only get one of their inks to try first, which would it be? I noticed that they do samples differently than other places and I don't really understand how it works.
I'm still learning a lot about the BPC inks. They don't have samples from what I have found, but they do have a line of inks called "Atomink" which can be mixed together to make a bunch of the inks they currently sell. If I could only try one, I would pick a color I really like writing with (for me green, purple, or brown). You can also sign up for their emails and get some ink "bundles" when they have sales :)
@@mydandeliondiaries Thank you!
Ok! Now I really want that TWISBI Eco. I already have two but I love them. Is another too much? Also, both of mine are fine nib and I'm wondering if I should try extra fine? I am a lefty so I find that the fine him works better for me because it has less feedback.
I really like that Jane Eyre ink as well and I'm thinking about getting that as well Robert Oster polar vortex. Did you already review that one?
I must admit I have a small collection of TWISBI ECOs haha. I don't think having another would be too much. I've seen collectors have 20+ TWISBIs in a whole rainbow of colors. As for RO Polar Vortex I haven't shown a swatch on my channel yet but it is one of my favorites. It has beautiful shading and is a mix of blue, grey, and purple.
@@mydandeliondiaries thanks! I think I'm going to go for it. 😁
The Dominant Industry is so pretty! Adding that on my list. Do you think it would be alright to put that in a thinner nib since it has minimal shimmer?
Fine nibs just have finer shimmer lines. I exclusively use fine and Ef and I only use shimmer inks.
Yes! As @stichxavi said, the shimmer will be in smaller lines due to the finer nibs. I find that the Dominant Industry shimmers are really mild compared to the FWP or Diamine shimmers. I haven't had a clogged pen yet :)
@@mydandeliondiaries @stitchxavi Thank you! I am just a bit scared just in case the shimmer clogs. I do have some pens that I wouldn't mind putting shimmer inks in.
Do you use your A6 exclusively for ink swatches? I bought an A6 Techo for the first time and I’m not sure if it’s what I need. Previously I’ve been an A5 bullet journaler. I’ve been using the dailies for a bullet journal but that it. It seems to be wasteful.
Yes and no 😅 I am using it as a space for art and ink exclusively. I wouldn't put too much pressure on yourself to use all the pages, just use what you need from it! 🥰
Where can I get that big clip?
I find it ironic that the fountain pens requiring the wettest inks are produced by the manufacturer of what I consider to be the driest inks! (FWP)
It is a bit funny haha. I do find that some of the FWP inks are not super dry though. I will say that Herbin inks are dryer to me in some cases.
