[@JetPens]

Thanks for all the likes in Connie's previous videos! Hope you enjoyed watching. Give us a like to see more Staff Members' everyday carry!

"There's a Bear. On the back... there's another, SMALLER bear." We love you Connie.

The hockey player card with K-pop vibes was awesome. It is cute 100%

[@fearthequiet6365]

I chuckled a little at that one

[@neroclaudius8502]

LOL the k-pop hockey card really is funny and cute

[@low-key2520]

Thanks for taking the time to answer our questions Connie!!! And for showing us what you keep in your bag 😊 I love "what's in my bag" type videos, and I hope we can continue to see them from different team members!

[@tacocaat13]

The little tiger on the Starbucks coffee mug is so cute 😭🐯

[@ItoeKobayashi]

That hockey card was both hilarious and adorable. It's inspired me to get fangirly about other non-traditional things I love too!

[@veronicaj6361]

That Kokuyo Field Sketch Book is going on my wishlist. Looks like a perfect brain dump journal for when my mind won't stop racing.

[@robertascholten8173]

Your printing is so amazing; consistent, neat, and so very readable! Over the last year, and because I've admired your printing so much, I've been using printing exclusively myself (other than signature, of course). It took a bit of practice to achieve a reasonable state of consistency, but things are coming along. JetPens staff are so dog-gone interesting!! Love the website, love the channel, and of course, LOVE the merchandise!!

[@languageandhobbies]

I've given this video an invisible _extra_ Like for Connie designing her own planner, complete with black borders. Wow! I used a Pilot Precise V5 rollerball and Kokuyo Mark+ 2 Way highlighters to make an at-a-glance calendar on a single piece of A5 Rhodia dot grid paper, but with Connie's project she must be meeting any mindfulness meditation goals she might have. As for broad fountain pen nibs, I'm getting used to Platinum Preppy Japanese medium nib but would like to try a broad nib of some fountain pen down the road.

Gosh Connie is aesthetic omg. I aspire to be as on top of it as Connie can be

[@tsunfish9443]

Yeah that kpop style hockey card is incredibly funny, I kind of want to do something like that too now hahahhaha

[@sparklefulpaladin]

Ambidextrous fountain pen user here. When I write lefty, I use a side writing style. I’ve personally found that the Diamine inks work well, though I do use finer nibs most of the time.

[@ewdrago]

OMG baby Jumbo!!! I'm a huge sharks fan and miss him so much!

[@plamen2110]

Connie has my hear and soul. Her sense of humor and body language that goes so well with it gets me every time. I cannot get over how she makes buying stationary such a happy experience.

[@roxazaloah]

I love your videos. They are always so chill and Connie is great at describing the pens and papers/journals that you sell! Thank you!!

[@colleennewton7882]

Love the tips Connie, I'm also a leftie, I'm definitely going to try a broader nib and the excellent Hobonichi plain notebook. I absolutely love the Jet Pens videos, best telly ever.

[@kaitlyn.elizbeth291]

I love the hockey card😂 Connie is great love her sense of humor

[@tiff67890]

[@waltski4375]

Thanks for the tour! Your coffee mug has me considering another cup as I wind down my day!

[@lissah.1925]

The more I watch JetPens videos raving about fountain pens the more I want to try them but I'm so scared to! I love my Varsity, but I'm afraid I'll make such a mess/waste money trying to figure out a fancier fountain pen (what ink I like, what nib size, how to load). I need someone to walk me through this lol. But thank you for always sharing your recommendations with us - it's very helpful for all of us that are indecisive or worriers!

[@inkymagpieo1271]

I'd suggest reading the Jetpens guide on Platinum Preppy. It's an inexpensive, all plastic (steel nib) fountain pen that uses cartridges. Jetpens sells them for something like $6 US each. The pens come in several colors. The cartridges are company-specific, but very easy to find and are also inexpensive. I started out with a Fine nib, because I like a thinner line, if you know you like broader lines like Connie, you can start with a Medium. Preppys also come in Extra-Fine and Broad, but it might be easier to start with a more mid-range nib and size up or down from there.

[@sunshineissexy]

I went straight in with a Pelikan, used way too much pressure, and sprung the nib! Also, I’ve now broken 2 twsbis 😢i drop my pens often and have been known to have a grip of steel! 😂 but you learn how to take care of them and disassemble and write softly with them . Don’t be scared! A lot of fountain pen parts are replaceable and pens like the Kakuno or all sport aren’t super expensive. Keep trying!

[@sherrycohen1824]

Lissa, you will love them. I've been using them on and off since third grade, but now that I have arthritis in my hands, I use them more. Start with a Kakuno or Platinum Preppy, both cheap, but good pens. I love them both, but I also love my Lamy Safaris and Kaweco Perkeos because they have good flow. My husband likes $600 pens. Yes, they write beautifully, but I'm really happy with my cheap ones!

[@aprilchaney250]

Ink samples are sn inexpensive way to try 1-2 fills worth of a lot of different inks! I get mines from Goulet pens because they have surprise me sets and sets based on color. I personally got a TWSBI eco and after watching one video on how to clean and fill was able to go no issues, there are other super beginner friendly pens too! Jet pens has videos on them as well as Goulet pens. Both are great resources for beginners and long time users.

[@francinehibiscus350]

What a great video! It's always a joy to see Connie, and this view into SO MANY THINGS was great fun!

[@robertcochran7103]

I really like the way you present these videos, Connie.I watch for videos from you. I study your comments on different papers and think about them.

[@sunshineissexy]

Ah yes!!! I bought my first Parker 51 at the miami pen show this year and it has quickly become my favorite pen 🖊

[@meowstral]

lols the Joe card! 😆😆😆 love this video, it's awesome!! 😍 and thank you for showing your 2023 setup

[@juriepica1174]

The hockey card reveal caught me off guard hahaha

[@julihath8046]

As a leftie who is curious about fountain pens, I really appreciate your information about your choice of nibs. I also feel like my handwriting looks neater with a larger pen point.

[@fin.etcetera]

I’ve also got that Hobonichi bear cover and absolutely love it!

[@MissMarilynDarling]

the private reserve pearlescent inks are like the fastest dryers on the market check them out if you are looking for a super duper fast drying ink

Connie has SUCH a peaceful, caing vibe- i love it🩷

[@pen_journal]

Ole Jumbo Joe took me by surprise, I was wondering who on earth is that! Love the spreads, love the Parker 51 even better! Didn't know you have a taste of Vintage pens, Connie! Great insight on your EDC!

Ain’t no way I saw the bag of my dreams in the first 30 seconds only to get my dreams severely crushed sksjsjs it’s literally almost an exact replica of a bag I used to have 😭 Connie, better watch out for me!!!

[@reginerobles6733]

How about Josh’s EDC and/or pencil case? Fountain pen collection? Hope you’ll make a video about it 😊

[@pandabugdiaries2384]

This was so fun to watch! Thank you so much!! I don't have the discipline to make a DIY planner but it was cool to see it in action, maybe one day when I get more used to using planners (a goal of mine for next year) I'll try making one myself ^^

[@charlesbarilleaux2784]

You should have talked more about your Parker 51--the best fount ever! I'm almost embarrassed by the current production. Is it a vac or areo?

[@IZ4N_88]

Hello Jen pens! How is your day going? Love your videos and hope you good! Byeeeee

[@jessicaroberts2915]

Guys, what have we found on the purse? I need this purse in my life! 😊

[@chiarasola826]

Lovely video 🙂 I have a question about inks... Do they have an "expiration date"? Can I use a 20 years old ink for example? PS: super cute tiger mug 🐯 ❣

[@JetPens]

Hi there! While ink does not have an expiration date, it will eventually become unusable. Most inks by reputable brands will last decades if stored and used correctly. The main reason for expiry is contamination. If your ink is moldy, slimy, or has a bad smell, it's gone bad.

[@6imposiblethingsb4breakfast]

where did you get your super cute mug?

[@JetPens]

Hi there! The mug was part of Starbucks's Lunar New Year Mugs for 2022.

[@iris_ibis]

Ohhh! It's nice :D

[@reginerobles6733]

What are underwriting and overwriting?

[@GaryMeacher]

What is the pen that looks like it is glow in the dark green?

[@juliejuliephanphan]

I think it’s a jade TWSBI Eco that was limited edition, but they actually have a glow-in-the-dark one right now!

[@xyraella]

Do you guys have any suggestions for what pen cases i can use to store my glass pens? Its bulky to have them in their original packaging. It takes up a lot of space on my desk and i just really want to keep them like i do with my regular pens and fountain pens. Pls help! 🙏🏼🥺

[@JetPens]

Hi there! Generally we don't recommend storing glass pens in pen cases as they're very likely to break if not stored or handled properly, or if they're kept in a normal pen case alongside rigid pens. They are best kept in their original packaging or placed on a pen tray/pen holder for a desk.

[@oz6896]

Gonna ask again since it's been five months and I can't stop thinking about it lol but would anyone know the name of the ink used at @ 6:52 ?

[@JetPens]

Hi there! That's Rohrer & Klingner Alt-Goldgrün (Old Golden Green) Writing Ink: www.jetpens.com/Rohrer-Klingner-Alt-Goldgrun-Old-Golden-Green-Writing-Ink-50-ml-Bottle/pd/7425
