I’m planning on doing the invitations for my wedding by myself and I’m wanting to do dark green envelopes with a gold wax seal so I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect gold pen and this was so helpful and informative!! I’ll definitely be watching more of your videos on calligraphy as well!

[@EnsignInsights]

Ooh your invitations are going to look amazing! I hope you can find what you’re looking for!

Really nicely done video. Chill vibes and a great demonstration of the products. I ordered a Pilot and a Marvy, both with 2mm tips. I intend to color-fill the lettering on my home defense handgun. The pistol is solid black, but I just purchased a gold barrel for it, and I wanted to extend that gold out to some of the lettering on the firearm. I'm unsure the exact shade of gold the barrel is, as I've yet to receive it, but I love a good black and gold combination in general. Once everything arrives, I'll see which marker is closer in color, and try my hand at "painting." It seems like people just paint the letters in, nice and full, then wipe off the excess with some alcohol and a cloth, leaving just the filled in lettering. Hopefully it goes that smoothly for me, nothing ever seems to. I'm not your target audience by a long shot, but I thought perhaps you'd get a kick out of some random guy with a gun, finding your arts and crafts video useful. Thanks for sharing.

Those pens were so pretty! And the poppin metallic gel pens are worth checking out! And I really like the candle, it looked so professional! Thanks for the video!

[@EnsignInsights]

Thank you for saying that! My sister loved the candle! And I’ll look up poppin gel pens!

[@thandimay]

The sakura gelly roll gold metallic pen is my favourite 💕

[@caitlinarnold8113]

loving seeing all the different gold pens! suprisingly enough, Dollar general has a pen that looks almost identical to the first one you lettered with! I am in love with it. I love the candle Idea also!!

[@EnsignInsights]

Oh that is surprising! Maybe I need to go to dollar general!

[@wanderingcreativity]

Thanks for sharing dear the golden shine is lovely and pretty soothing to watch friend :)

[@skwerwl]

I have an old version of the sakura ones in silver & gold. I cannot remember if I wanted them or if my mom had them and gave them to me (kind of a similar story to my old color-erase pencils that have "ebhardt-faber" on them (pre-faber castell) and my guess is they're from the late 90s. Still work perfectly. If you're worried about washable glass things, I highly suggest a gold oil based sharpie. You bake them for like 10 minutes after writing on glass/ceramic and they're good to go for wear & tear.

[@rubyarias1257]

I’d like a bright shiny gold but I need something that isn’t gonna smear, I need something that I can use to sign glossy posters and my calendars. If you can recommend one. Thank you in Advance

Really your writing is too good in comparison of my writing ....keep it up

[@laurendecelle5356]

One of my favorite gold pens has been the prismacolor premier metallic markers - they're as bright a gold as gold leafing. The only downside is after a while they stop running smooth and start to splatter :/ But for that first little bit, so nice!

[@EnsignInsights]

Ooh it sounds like I need to try that one!! Thanks!

[@nurashefa9885]

All the gold markers are adorable..I love your way of reviewing the product! Btw, what's the gold marker used in 7:37 ?

Thanks for posting, i can think of a lot of situations where these will really look good 👍.

Hi, We are currently looking for the right pen to use on our handheld fans we have purchased as favours for our guests at our wedding next year, This has been helpful, I would just like to ask what would you recommend for plastic, and that is the material on the outside of the fans.

[@TheTruth-j9r]

Hi. Ive been looking for a decent gold pen, unfortunately Amazon UK dont sell the sakura one do. I've had to settle for another chinese brand, SigWong Metalic chrome market pen set (4 nib sizes) the description said the colour is a glossy mirror like finish. Sounds too good but i went ahead and bought it. The one i really wanted was another one called arabic gold. Cant find it anywhere! The photo of the test writing alone looks like 22k gold! Anyways thr reason why i wanted a gold pen was because I've redecorated my livingroom completely. New carlet , wall slats new tv new stands sofas u name it. and as part of one my ornaments is a large Buddha head, in black. Its crown has faded dusted gold colouring which lioks crap so im going to enhance the with this gold marker. I've seen pics of what i want on google. Looks amazing!

[@imtiyazkhan9259]

I love your brush pens

[@reehakadeeja4105]

woww love all these adorable gold markers!! I would love to know if you could test out the Uni paint gold marker ! Its actually a paint marker and i had a pretty much good expectation about it but the very 3 rd day i bought it it was kinda watery i dont know why the ink didnt come that good tho :( so i really wanted to see a better review of it!!!! thank you so much!!1

[@EnsignInsights]

Oh thanks for sharing that! I’ll add it to my list! One thing I’ve found when that happens with paint or chalk markers is that I just have to shake them up more so you might want to try that? I don’t know why it does that!

[@rauchschwalbelp7693]

I like the uniball signo and the Sakura gelly roll with the sparkle. But funny enough, I ordered some relatively cheap outline markers in gold and the yellow one is so bright! And they are not yellow or brown-greenish like sooo many others.

[@michellemeyer1214]

I'm looking for a metallic pen both GOLD & SILVER with a fine nib about the width of ballpoints. I want to decorate the back of Cabochons and paint black over the metallic design with acrylic paint. Could you please recommend any? I have tried about 5 or 6 but having problems with the gold and silver drying plus they're smudging when I try to paint over them with acrylic paint!

Is the Uniball you demonstrated good for dark sticky notes? It's the 1.0 mm right?

[@EnsignInsights]

Yes, it's 1 mm and I do think it would be good for dark sticky notes. It's pretty opaque on regular paper (even black paper) so it would probably work! It's still my favorite gold gel pen!

[@artwithjoy0920]

That’s beautiful! I will definitely try to do that!🤩👏🏻🤩

[@ainashburn]

im looking for a a gold pen/marker that can write with full opaque on transparent clear sticker paper. which one do you recommend?

Oh that's a good question! I think you'll have to do some tests! I recommend the Marvy decocolor and the Pilot gold marker to anyone. Both are great!

[@tristasmith2244]

I love the gold with water color over it! What type of paper do you recommend to do this with as a gift?

I have a quick question, can you blend the DecoColor pen with another DecoColor metallic pen?

[@aadrongarg3599]

I don't know if I got a fake one or a bad batch but i bought the Sakura pens, the white was pretty much transparent, the silver stopped working after the first time I used it and the gold lasted a few more uses before the ink stopped coming out. I shaked them and pushed the nib down, but then there's just a pool of ink and don't work afterwards... I'll try the pilot one that you mentioned though, thankyou for helping me out!

[@EnsignInsights]

Oh wow! Yeah I don’t know about that. I feel like some of them are just a little finicky! I loved the pilot one and I’ve been loving the Marvy Decocolor one!!

[@yashmeenansari7251]

Among these pen which one is good to use on mirror?

[@EnsignInsights]

The one I’d use on a mirror is the Marvy gold chalk marker. I don’t know how well the other ones would wipe off but the chalk marker would last a while and wipe off easily with just water when you’re done with it.

So here's my dilemma. I collect bibles and i have too many so i want to give some away. However i want to imprint names of the leather and faux leather covers but it would cost a LOAD of money to ship them off just for that purpose. So i was thinking of just buying some stencils and using a gold pen or paint to stencil the names on the covers. Does anyone think that would be possible and if so what would you recommend? Please keep it simple as i am a man, not artistic, and not very patient. I can't even draw a straight line, I'm a lefty with bad writing.

[@kelvin8369]

When I see sharpie gold, I knew u were going to say it looks like bronze, cuz I also have a bronze one, which is gorgeous in my opinion, but they are really similar... don’t know what was sharpie thinking...
