Wow. What beautiful inks. I look forward to learning how you did your mix. Gorgeous pens as well.

That was a great video- I really enjoyed the recap of every month. I can’t pick a fav- have a few 😄

@julia-here Ай бұрын

Thank you!! And totally get it; picking a favorite anything is SO tough for me too.

I feel you & I like some of the same colors. Love the Kaweco. Enjoying your channel Julia. Thanks for nice videos.

I can’t say if it’s my favourite but I’m really enjoying BPC’s weeping willow in my Kakuno with a medium nib. The ink is such a gorgeous complex colour, The pilot medium nib is broader than I usually go for, but I was having issues with this nib previously and now it’s writing so well that it’s such a nice experience in contrast.

Ooo! That sounds like a solid pair! Weeping Willow is such a neat ink (you’re right; the color is hard to even describe)

This was really cool, I love this idea and the approach you have taken. I normally go for top 5 inks, and top 5 pens, but will definitely have to think about the pairings as well.more and mroe of my pens have their perfect pairing now, it will be nice to document them.

@julia-here Ай бұрын

Thanks so much! I think thinking of the pair makes the possibilities seem more endless- (another tactic to curve the acquiring honestly that also happens to be fun too lol)

Hello Julia! Lovely selection! I love pelikans, and that Berlin is omg. Little note: in Italian, gn sounds like Spanish ñ, so the Leonardo sounds like pruña! Plum, in Italian 💜

Thank you so much! I love (and retain) pronunciation rules like that; super helpful and much appreciated ☺️

Great choices on pens and inks. I love the BPC Rotten Seaweed ink. A Wildflower Tailored Pen Co pen is on my wishlist, I love their Wildflower pens. In my pen collection, I am currently loving 3 Oysters Doldum in my Pelikan M805 Stresemann and Papier Plume Moss Green in my Pelikan M600 Green Stripe.

@@tinacampbell2610 lovely! I don’t know either of those inks but I must check them out ☺️

congrats on finishing samples! Favorite pen is the Sailor Pro Gear Every Rose and a toss up between Herbin Larmes De Cassis and De Artramentis Alexander Hamilton for the ink. Pilot 912 is runner up for pens - I go back and forth between keeping a black in it or color, I love having the flex in black but then I think this pen is too fun to just have black. Maybe it's a sign I should buy another to have one with color and one with black all the time.

@julia-here Ай бұрын

The Every Rose pen is absolutely gorgeous!! ✨ Andddd I totally feel ya on the 912- same struggle here. Right now I have a teal in mine (shocker right? 😂) but I’m with ya, a second one may be necessary for the all black 👀

@nlamproplos Ай бұрын

Such great combinations! Right at the moment, my top pairing is Taccia Ume-murasaki in an Esterbrook J Pumpkin Latte with a Pendleton Brown Butter Line Stub.

@julia-here Ай бұрын

Oh wow! That sounds like a luxurious pairing 😍

@burgabooburgaboo Ай бұрын

These are all so pretty! 🤩 My current favorite pairing is my Pelikan M600 Violet EF with J. Herbin Poussiere de Lune. It is just *chef's kiss*

@julia-here Ай бұрын

My word!! I know both the pen and ink and I am drooling- I bet it’s perfection 🤌🏽

@mollymollie6048 Ай бұрын

Beautiful inks and pens! I found some new samples I want to order. I was so glad to see the FWP Thyme because it’s a sage green that is readable!! Those aren’t easy and it’s a favorite color of mine. I love your nail polish, do you know what the color/brand is?

@julia-here Ай бұрын

Totally with you with Dancing Thyme! It is a gem of a legible color 👏🏽- and I’m distraught about the nail color. I told myself I was going to remember it because I liked it so much and of course I didn’t write it down so I have no clue.. I’m going on a hunt right now though (it’s one of those I’ll remember if I see the name) and will report back if I find it :)

@julia-here Ай бұрын

Andddd I found it! It's by DND Gel, called Light Fawn :)

@mollymollie6048 Ай бұрын

@@julia-here Thanks so much! lol, I remember by the names, too. It’s easy when they’re clever like OPIs (I still wind up coming home with new nail polish…and I already have that color. My little nieces gain a new nail polish out of it, though!) Yes, Dancing Thyme…I knew there was something else in there. I wrote it down on my list of “get a sample of this it looks really cool.” I was surprised how legible it was after seeing the swatch (and I think you were using a F nib, too.) There are some beautiful colors that look lovely when swatched, and are just unreadable, for me anyway. I’m glad to have found another green I like…I am on the hunt for a “Forest Green” that’s not too black, not too bright, not too teal/blue, and without purple/pink/red sheening (not really a sheening fan most of the time.) But, at least this looks like a fabulous green, can’t wait to get it! There are so many other colors that I have plenty of options I like, but I’m struggling with greens!
