Congratulations on hitting this milestone! It was lovely to learn more about your story! You have a lovely collection, and I look forward to seeing how it evolves over time so that you have lots of options to match an ink and pen according to your journal theme of the month. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Aww thank you so much! It's funny how far you can come and how much can change in a year. I am no where near what I thought I was doing when I got my first pen or when I went all in on this hobby a year ago. Who knows where this journey will take me in a year from now. Really enjoying this trend and hearing everyone's stories! Thanks for checking out mine.

It's a nod to the novel I am writing, but also the content...the magic of stationery and my obsession with books.

1)... 1:58 ...2022 , Got her first Fountain Pen. 6)... 9:26...Wow...only 46 pens in 2 yrs ?? Dang, I really got to slow down ...

Nice journey your on....thanks for sharing.

I didn't start really spending money on pens till a year ago. I stuck with my first two for a year before buying my first ink haul. It was all sown hill from there. If not for moving twice and buying our first home, I likely would have a much larger collection. Don't worry, it's still growing. Three new pens arrived since this video went live a week ago...lol

What do you like in a pen? That will help in narrowing down what are the optimal pens to try. Congrats on hitting a 1k, Nice video.

@BooknBroom Ай бұрын

First and foremost I look for a nice smooth writer. Second something that has a nice shape tot he body and it pretty. As far as how to narrow that down now, I am looking for pens that fill in the gaps in my collection. A new or interesting shape that still seems usable, a color I do not have yet that will allow me to use an ink I seldom get to try. But mostly, just something pretty or unique. Thank you so much. I could not have gotten there with out every one of you.

@@BooknBroom I don't know if you're for gold nibs, or what you are willing to spend, but I find the smoothest nibs are SCRIBOs and Pelikans. Pelikans do have some steel nibs, so that brings the price down. Some of the best, smoothest steel nibs are Faber-Castell, but outside of the E-Motion I find them very, very dull. I love smoother than smooth nibs. I like glass smooth, oil slick smooth LOL. I would only caution be selective, because otherwise you end up with a lot of pens. If you have a store or pen meets near you take advantage. Also, there is something called the Pelikan Hub that is in September in multiple cities around the world. Registration is open right now until June 24, I think. Check that out.

@BooknBroom Ай бұрын

@@ironmic9244 I have heard good things about the Pelikan pens. The discord server posted the Hub for September as soon as it went live so I am all signed up for that as well as my daughter who is going to come with me. I love a smooth nib as well, that sounds like EXACTLY my jam. Thank you for all the info, that was very helpful.

Thank you so much my friend! Isn't it just a dream come true! I pull that tray out every few days just to enjoy all the colors. I always have at least 1-2 Kawekos inked at all times. It is such a wonderful little pen!
