April 2024 Currently Inked | Initial Thoughts

[@jessicaburris629]

I thought I was the only paper nerd who wrote out my pen/ink combos on five different papers. 😂 I love this so much! 💕

[@lifeinspiresdesign]

Isn't it the best?!

[@debpaynepurnell6131]

Nope, we all do it. Lol!

I love the 3 Diamine shimmer inks especially. Thank you as always for the amount of samples you create 🤩

[@lifeinspiresdesign]

The shimmers are sooo nice, especially in the sun! I'm glad you're enjoying the content!

I bought a a Lamy all-star a few years ago and recently rediscovered it in a box of gel pens. Used it for the first time and now I'm a newbie in the fountain pen world! I bought 3 in March (2 twsbis and a kaweco sport) and now am cooling off for a bit to figure out what I'm looking for in a pen before dipping in further. I was planning on keeping my collection to neutrals and pastels for a change, as most of my accessories are pink or teal and my nail polish is loud. I ended up watching your video because that Mimosa really popped on the thumbnail and it looked so good! So I have a feeling my neutral/pastel philosophy is dead before I even started. >.< Thank you so much for sharing.💛

[@lifeinspiresdesign]

LOL! My neutral philosophy probably died early on in year one. In my experience, once you finally find your favorite colors in both pens and inks, they tend to match each other. I hope this happens for you!

I love your inky videos. I think you have one of the best 30 inks 30 days videos lately as well. Your nib selection is certainly much more diverse this month. I love that! I've used FPs for sooo long (since school; over 30 years now) and to be honest I have discovered that I prefer playing with different nibs over experimenting with inks quite a while ago. But I love watching your inky contents; and you're probably one of the rare people who emphasizes the variety and importance of paper when using FP inks. I wanted to ask you if you know of any stiched notebook made with iroful paper. I have the loose sheets but I can't seem to find a bound journal

[@lifeinspiresdesign]

Thanks so much for watching! I'm glad you're finding these videos helpful. "Thread-bound" Iroful A5 notebooks are now available via Amazon (amzn.to/4aHxdsb).

How do you store/organize your writing papers after you’re done with them? I assume you probably refer back to them if needed? (That be a good video idea! I’d watch it!)
