Have you ever used a fountain pen before? Which ink color was your favorite?

I’m so incredibly excited that people are going to be able to try Fountain pens and Ink more. Thank you all so much for including it in the box. I cannot wait to get it in my own hands.

It's clear what people are choosing as their favourite colour, but surprisingly I'm really liking that Absinth Green! It's got such a vibrant pop to it when paired next to those deeper inks.

I was SOOO excited to be surprised with the fountain pen. It was hard to not watch the unboxing reveals but every once in a while I show restraint 😜. Love Archer & Olive!! Great box again!!

This video is helpful, makes a lot more sense than the written instructions on the card in the box. The ‘turn the black end of the converter’ doesn’t make any sense to me. It seems to slide instead of turn. 🤷🏻‍♀️

This was the first time I've used a fountain pen and I've totally fallen in love. Writing cursive feels so satisfying. :D

I just got mine TODAY! Going to try the green. Beautiful color. My First Box and I’m Thrilled!!

I just got mine in the mail today -- my first A&O products ever! I'm definitely excited to use the pen. I used one in middle and high school with those plastic refill vials that click into place, so this is a bit of a nostalgia trip for me too. (The box was amazing, btw. The products and presentation are gorgeous!)

This video was SUPER helpful. Even though I've used fountain pens before, this style of converter was new to me, & the cleaning instructions are also very much appreciated. FWIW, I found better results with dipping the converter directly into the bottle - as I got less 'pooling' in the nib afterward. Thanks so much!

This will be my first time to try a fountain pen. Thank you for this easy to follow tutorial 😊

This was incredibly helpful. I have never used a fountain pen before and received my first one with my latest A&O subscription. Thank you for this very helpful and informative video. I'll probably try the blue-green ink first.

I just got mine today! I can't wait to try the turquoise!

Thank you for this tutorial. This made setting my first refillable fountain pen so easy.

The green is just gorgeous! I've never tried a fountain pen before so this will be my first time!

I am so glad you did this video. I'm used to putting ink cartridges in my pens and would have no idea how to fill this style pen. I can't wait for my package to arrive today! (blue-green ink)

I love that blue green

Easier than the other converters I have used!

Thank you for the tutorial. I’ve always wanted to play around with fountain pens as I love hand lettering (I know this is different). My mother used fountain pens almost exclusively when I was a young child.

I love them all, but I think I will try the green first! I have used a fountain pen, but not with a converter!! Very excited to learn😊

Blue green!! This is my first fountain pen and I’m so excited to play with it! Thanks got the helpful tips! 😁

Ooh, I've never tried a converter like that! My current fountain pens are all squeeze converters. And those inks... That teal-y one is lovely!

great tutorial! I used the light green first and I love it!

Oh. This also made me realise how old I am. We had to use a fountain pen at school. We were issued them once we had mastered writing with a pencil. Other types of pen were not allowed.

I love fountain pens and they are my pen of choice. I am SO excited that Archer & Olive has created one. I’m most excited to try the blue/green ink. ❤

so glad i watched this video my box should arrive today or tomorrow i cant wait for that green ink its soo pretty

Hi, you can order more converters from pen stores. Also different size nibs.

I’m excited for these. Off subject - I wish I could have nails like yours!!! Beautiful.

I’m so excited to have a fountain pen! And of course I got ink all over myself before I gave in & watched this video. 😂

I'm editing my comment as I missed an entire part. For beginners I would go with the nib/feed attached method and have a rag to wipe off the nib and grip section.

I cannot wait to get it in my hands!

What brand of pen is it for buying extra converters or cartridges or nibs? I found the nib too fine for me. The video is so helpful as the instructions on the card had me twisting to fill. The dark green is a lovely colour but I think it would look better on paper than it did on my hands 😂😂😂

When you were filling the pen you should have told everyone to have a paper towel on hand or a rag that you don’t care about getting stained. Also fill your pen in an area that you can clean easily in case the ink gets spilled. Soft scrub with bleach works well to get ink off of countertops. Don’t ask me how I know!!! So do not fill your pen on your nice wooden table. Once the converter is filled with ink and you want that ink to get down into the feed you can push the lever down ever so slightly to force some of the ink down into the feed. A less messy way of filling the converter is to get a needle nose syringe. This way you don’t get ink all over your hands.

Do I have to empty the ink out after every use? Will it dry out if left in pen?

This is my first fountain pen and I’m very excited!! This might be a stupid question but is there a chance the pen could leak? Like could I fill it and toss it into my purse to take and use at work?

May I ask what make is this fountain pen?

Is it bad that I love your accent better than the pen 😂😂
