Love this, love how people choose inks for their pens... and the Pen BBS mini fude nib... I love those!

[@FountainPenNews]

They are so underrated. I love PENBBS!

[@natashajohnson5776]

Cute idea! I feel this way about my Maiora Aventus Deep Purple fountain pen and J. Herbin Rose Cyclamen ink.

[@FountainPenNews]

Ooo I don't think I've ever seen that ink or pen! I'll have to look them up!

[@brilliantlady1]

Yes, the t elides in Vert Olive.

[@tattooedcat]

These are awesome! I love the Olivae resin from F-C, and I have a 45 in it. I haven’t found anything I love in it yet, but that Tuna & Olives sounds like a perfect match. I’m so glad you were able to get some when it came back in stock! 🤘🏼😸🧡🖋

[@FountainPenNews]

Thank you, me too!! Other viable choices are Faber Castell olive green and r&k alt gold-grun I suppose!

[@dinorahfeliciano5200]

OMG, Wendi, I’m the same way with pens and their inks. Once I choose the perfect ink for each of my pens, that’s the only ink that the pen will be filled with. Loved your video! ❤

[@FountainPenNews]

Isn't it funny how brains work sometimes?? Thank you so much for watching!

[@LittleCocoStudio]

Love your matchmaking skills! Perhaps a bit predictable of me, but, I do love that dark grey and gold trim capless. 🥹 What a great combo with the BPC ink! 😍

[@FountainPenNews]

It's so good isn't it? I know you love a VP. Ha ha. I got that one for a super deal so it feels extra special.

[@MrsAlchemist]

Hi Wendi, your collection of perfekt pairings is so nice! And I was a bit sad that the olive pen has no perfect match at the moment. Until I found my first perfect combination of pen and ink I didn’t pay much attention. Now I know how it feels ☺️🎉

[@FountainPenNews]

@@MrsAlchemist thank you! I actually got my hands on tuna and olives so I have a whole bottle. Isn't that lucky??

[@MrsAlchemist]

@@FountainPenNews that is good news for your pen!! She will dance all night 🥰

[@Tina.Journals]

Love the grey V.P. and the ink choice is spot on! I don't have any pen and ink soul mates, at least not right now.

[@emmaythegray]

Love this! I’ve been accidentally finding soul mate pairings, though it’s not always by color match. I’m Also a big FC fan, nice to see those featured in your video. 💕

[@FountainPenNews]

Oo yay! Another FC fanatic! Let's connect and compare collections sometime! I always love seeing what people have. What's your favorite FC? Thanks for watching!

[@emmaythegray]

@@FountainPenNews 🤩as of today's Fedex delivery, I have 4, this newest being a 46 in Orange Ice. So that will be my favorite for a while 😍

[@FountainPenNews]

​@@emmaythegrayoo fun! I just got a model 66 in solid ice in a trade. It has the sweetest EF nib I think I've ever used!

[@brilliantlady1]

You know I’m all about soulmates when it comes to my pens, so this is just fabulous!

[@RaggedPoet]

PS I adore that Franklin Christoph Olive Green.... I don't see their more colourful demonstrators online...

[@FountainPenNews]

Sometimes they sell out pretty quickly. They have stopped making the 46 like I have but I do see that they still have model 66 in that resin. It's called Olivae. I've gotten a fair few of my franklin christoph pens second hand. So keep your eyes peeled!

[@ChrisSaenz13]

What a fun video! That Diamine Bougainvillea is stunning!!!!❤

[@FountainPenNews]

Thank you, @ChrisSaenz13! I thought it was a Fun way to look at enjoying pens and inks. I'd love to see if you have any pen and ink soul mates!

[@fountainpeninsanity3344]

These are all really great choices, especially the Bougainvillea in the Pearlple! This was a great idea for a video.

[@FountainPenNews]

Thank you! I'd love to see some of yours!

[@nourin_siddique]

I think monteverde had a similar colour. You can ask Fountain Pendulum regarding similar colours to Tuna and Olive. I remember she did a video on that. I love the salmon glow but not the ink xDD but it suits your collection really well

[@FountainPenNews]

Guess what!! A miracle has happened! Tuna and Olives came back on stock so it is on its way to me now!

[@nourin_siddique]

@@FountainPenNews yayyy I hope you got 2 bottles then you are would be set. Also, did the eyedropper ever leak? I want to eyedropper preppy but I am worried it will burp after a while :33

[@FountainPenNews]

​@@nourin_siddique I have so many pens eyedroppered all the time. Very rarely, if ever, do they burp. And that penbbs 323 has never, ever. I use o ring and silicone grease together so no leaks either.

[@nourin_siddique]

@@FountainPenNews ok trying it out then. Thank you 😊

[@tilliet00]

tuna & olives is back…in case no one else told you. 😊

[@brilliantlady1]

I would definitely cry if Yama Budo were ever discontinued.

[@FountainPenNews]

I dreamt last night that they did discontinue it!! GAH!!

[@jppenandink]

Hi Wendi Sue, just a thought, have you ever tried Rohrer & Klingner’s Alt Goldgrun? It looks like it could match your FC#46. Loved seeing your pen and ink soul mates 😊

[@FountainPenNews]

Hi Jane! You're right! Alt Gold-grun is a great choice. Luckily for me, a very kind person let me know that tuna and Olives was back in stock at wonder pens so I have a whole bottle now!! Whoop whoop! Thank you for the suggestion!

[@jppenandink]

@@FountainPenNews oh that’s fantastic! Yay to perfect pairings 🤩

[@Wholelatteplans]

Wake up buddy! Hahah loved this!!

[@FountainPenNews]

Ha ha! Thanks f your watching!

[@PickwickTurtle]

Great pairings! 🐢❤️🐢

[@FountainPenNews]

Thank you! I love them!

[@cerealnana]

I wonder how Platinum Citrus Black would work in that Model 46? I also have pens that have mated for life.

[@FountainPenNews]

Guess what... I filmed this like 2 weeks ago and yesterday, tuna and Olives was back in stock at wonder pens! It's on its way to me already!

[@cerealnana]

@@FountainPenNews congrats!

[@brilliantlady1]

I mean, duh! Why would one EVER use plain black ink???
