Beautiful collection of greens, Jayne! Alt-goldgrün, Tokiwa-matsu, and RO Peppermint are some of my favourite green inks.

I like several of these. Jane Austin and Gentle green I will have to try one day. So many good ones.

I love green inks so much. I haven’t gotten any bottles yet because I’m new to the hobby and I’m still exploring my preferences through samples but this is a great reference to come back too hahahahha what notebook are you using to swatch these inks? They turned out great :)

Very interesting video on your pen and ink journey! I hope you’re not beating yourself up on changing your mind! I think it’s just fun to collect and then fall in love with the ink and pen combos! I love my pen collection and I don’t have a huge one compared to many. But seeing the ink in the TWSBI barrel is just so fun! I love my Kaweco’s, my Lamy’s, Esterbrook, Pilot Prera, and Sailor too. But the other brands don’t alway have ink in them. For me I love my brass Kaweco which I use with a warm brown ink, my Prera with Cursive Medium nib and Graf Von Faber-Castel Deep Sea. I have had a TWSBI ink with J. Herbin Emerald of Chivor since Christmas and used it sparingly and it so amazingly how it performs! I also love the TWSBI mini and I’m enjoying using the Sailor’s multi-shading ink Kyokkou that has an ethereal purple and grey color. They Robert Oster ink from the Melbourne pen show in the rose color is so devine! How lucky for you!🤩🥳

So fun to hang out with you and your green inks! Now I wanna get emotional olive into a pen, I got a sample! Kelp tea is also very interesting as well as jade! Looking forward to the rest of your collection! Happy Sunday! 🌸💕

Actually sent back the Teranishi emotional olive. I bought it from Amazon and it was so light. It was illegible to me. I am a fan of Green, but it has to be a very certain Green and saturated enough that I can read it. 😊

BEST VIDEO EVER!!!!!!

Thanks for the video. I like the Melbourne Tram Green; I have a bottle as well. Emotional Olive and Moroccan Tea are also nice. I'm steering away from shimmer inks. It would be great to see your collection when you get the time.

I like and have most of the inks. My favorite inks are shaders, then shimmer inks. Sheen in inks for most take over the ink color. They’re usually last for me. I still have plenty.

Very nice collection of green inks! 😊 My favourite of those would be DeAtramentis Jane Austen, but R&K Alt-Goldgrün is a classic in my collection as well. I have Emerald of Chivor, but I never use it because I don’t care for shimmer much… I love shading inks, I could completely do without sheen. 😂 You should add something like Private Reserve Spearmint or Pennonia Nettle to the bunch… Herbin Lierre Sauvage is also a really nice green. Thanks for sharing !

This was so very enjoyable to watch from beginning to end. Thank you, Jayne I am particularly drawn to inks which change colour as it dries or has a different shade depending on the nib or paper used (Rohrer and Klingner Alt-Goldgrun). One of the things I noticed is the marketing of inks. Specifically, the naming of inks such as Rober Oster Peppermint which as you say - tends to be a Christmas ink. Another interesting aspect is the seasons which you mentioned and it being winter where we tend to choose different coloured inks than we do in summer. I've challenged myself to try and pay attention to the colour of the ink/s rather than the name because at the end of the day _*"It is just a green ink"*_. Alas all too often, I get sucked in by the marketing. (Looking at you Wearingeul Ink with your literary titles!) Sorry for such a long comment, Jayne I just thoroughly enjoyed this video so much. Thank you! You made my Sunday.

So beautiful !!! How exciting, green 💚💚💚 You know that's my favourite colour. I love any shimmer inks, two of the green inks I own that are gorgeous shimmery are FWP Edward's Garden & Emerald Gardens. I don't often buy FWP (as you mentioned, too expensive) but those inks plus one other non green are must uses for me. I love all shades - emerald, olive, dark, forest, teal & Grass green. Grass is usually my favourite, I have most of them. (also yellow green & occasional lime) My favourites from your video are Alt Goldgrun, Emotional Olive & Jane Austen. I just received my brand new Wuthering Heights, the Wearingeul special Endless Pens release, in love with that too. Ok shutting up now 🥴🤭🥴 x

Thanks for swatching. But the greens are either olivey or all on the dark side, you should try a more vibrant green, say like Diamine Apple Glory

Really enjoyed seeing the beautiful green ink swatches! Fun to see the ink showing the multicolor and sheening! The color choices are so incredible and fun! Green was not initially my go to ink color. Teal green is my definitely my favorite color!!! I love to use Diamine’s Aurora Borealis the most. Graf Avon Faber-Castell Deep Sea Green I keep always in a pen for writing my envelopes since the ink is wonderful and quite water resistant. Love the Pelikan Edelstein Jade as well for how well it matches my TWSBI rose gold and jade and how nicely it performs. Love using Kyo No Oto Kokeiro no.3 which is a very olive green. A very unique color, but one I like journaling with and flows and shades nicely! I love celadon pottery and got the beautiful Kokeiro no. 7 which translates to secret color, but it is such a dry ink I don’t use it much. I love to hear about inks that perform well and have interesting properties! I too, love the J. Herbin Emerald of Chivor! I’m trying to hold back from buying any more inks, unless I purge some that I’m not using. So sorry to hear of your ink bottle breaking. I use a small camera clamp on small bottles to give stability since I find my hands shake a bit.

The ink muddled is a good device.

Green…with envy. I miss these swatches by colour.

My favorite of your collection that I actually purchased a bottle after sampling is River of Fire! Adore that one. I just purchased Emotional Olive and have just started playing with that ink. It leans quite a bit lighter than I typically use, but it’s a very saturated color. I just need to keep trying it in different pens until I find a match!

30:50 What a great collection of green inks! I love the variety of shade and tones you have. For some reason, I only have two green inks, and neither is my preference of olive green. 😅 Emotional Olive looks quite interesting. I do have a sample of kelp tea and I love the colour, but it really is so dry even in medium and broad nibs! If you have other colours, I would love to watch them swatched too!

Loved seeing your green ink bottle collection Jayne! I have 5 of the same inks. Really enjoying Teranishi Gentle Green and I want to try De Atramentis Jane Austin. Would love to see your other bottles in other colors sometime too!

I love your envelope system - it makes a lot of sense to address the envelope and then use that as a reminder.

I love rambly pen videos. I could watch them all day. 🙂

I'm also on team use-the-Christmas-inks-in-July-if-you-live-in-the-Southern-hemisphere

I just recently shared all my TWSBI‘s on Insta… 68 in total and all inked up. Like you said, it‘s just great to have a pen with a matching ink that you love always at hand. And they don‘t dry up. I write with fountain pens almost exclusively and to me it‘s just a logical thing to do… also to use my inks. 😊

you need 9 TWSBIs. 1 of each primary Color, with the corresponding ink. Red Orange Yellow Green Blue Purple (Lilac) Black Brown and Cyan. Nothing else will allow full expression. :):):)

Jsyne, thank you for the video. The lighting was just right. An interesting plan for the TWSBIs. Does this mean that you will have less opportunity to use your other pens? Probably not, because you certainly write a lot of pens dry.

The lighting looked fine. Twsbi's are fun, though I only have two but love them dearly. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Jayne, have a color wheel with you so you can look at complimentary & contrasting colorways, so you can reduce the number of colored ECOs, while pairing all your inks.

I love my Twsbi pens too and find their rainbow of colors additive. This was a great fun, happy video! Thanks.

I’ve found that my TWISBIs do keep writing for months also. I just get bored with the basic design if I keep them inked for too long and end up wanting to write with a different pen. Inking some of your other beautiful pens along with your TWSBIs seems like a good way to go.

Thank you, I really enjoyed your video. It’s great to see an Aussie doing it too! 😊

I really love that Melbourne Rose, gorgeous colour. Great idea about an Eco Rainbow and having your fave inks in pens all the time.

I like the natural lighting. It was nice to catch up with you Jayne while watching this episode. My favourites are Honey Bee, Melbourne Rose and Toffee. They’re gorgeous colours 🥰 Have a lovely weekend.

Lighting looks great! That is a really good idea for the TWSBI's. I may try it!
