I'm Mark Figueiredo. I create minimalist Bullet Journaling spreads as well as review notebooks, pens, and stationery to help you make the best decisions about how you like to organize and plan for yourself.
Wow. I was waiting for Water Bear to restock. But it’s so brown/gray! Not what I expected at ALL from online photo. I think I’ll get Antique Aubergine or Mudskipper instead.
Thank you so much for the video! I just got the Halloween box today and will try out the Calligraphy pens within the next days. Your video is a big help!👏👍
That is such a great idea! I've been trying to add workout pages in my regular bujo and it was not working well so after a time I gave up. This seems to be a much better way to do it! Good luck with your excercise/weight loss goals! 💪
Mark, It's like we are vibing! I have a Travel Company and getting ready for 2025. One of the inserts I am working on is a fitness tracker. I have lost over 60 lbs so far and feel like I have hit a wall. I hope that keep a tracker will keep me motivated. All the best in your new journey. You got this man! 💪✍
@@haircrazy79 thanks! And congrats on your loss so far! That’s amazing. I was so pumped to overcome my wall the week after this video. Consistent 1lb loss since
Thank you for the video. Do you know, if the ink is lightfastness/pigment based? I thought I read it somewhere, but there is no info on the website. At least none that I could find.
Aaaaand THIS! Is why I’m switching to the bullet journal method! Blank space in my calendar dated planners would just add to my anxious “fill that space in” mindset & make me feel like a slacker 😅 Life is full & I forgot to write it down < that is all. Don’t beat yourself up. Find a better way. Glad I found your channel. 🤍
This was great! Thank you. I bought a journal before I knew there was a whole tribe behind this method 😂 I would make a new planner every year & miss my sticker collection from previous years - so I decided to make the switch. Thank goodness I got a journal with the least acceptable paper weight 😎 I’m guessing that’s what the 120g means.
Oooohhhh! I like this because I have an OLD gifted journal that old LOVE to use but has memories I’d like to forget but didn’t want to cut the pages. I’m going to cover the pages with positivity & papers & paint! THANK YOU!
Thanks for your content. New to bullet journaling. I’ve been a planner girl for years & hating my inconsistencies / blank pages. Hoping this method works better for me. Your content is simple & inspiring. Just subscribed. 🏆 I’ll be in the comments 😁
@@AnntaresNYC it might Because they can be for anything, bullet journaling or regular notes… but it could Be cool to see one set up and used as a bullet journal vs just what I did here which was an overview.
Thank you for this! I wish A&O would include a least a little card for stuff like this with use and care instructions. I would love lots of videos about fountain and calligraphy because it has always been an interest and now that it is getting cooler out it is a perfect time to practice.
I'm new to Archer & Olive, I just ordered my first box!!!! My question is how do I get this fabulous Halloween box? Was this a special with the subscription boxes?
You always make me so excited to receive Archer & Olive products! The clarification of the calligraphy vs fountain pen ink was sooooo helpful. My first thought was to put it in a fountain pen, so I'm glad that you made this video. Thanks!
OMG Thank you so much Mike for this little tutorial. I have never used a fountain pen or a calligraphy pen and really needed this. I would definitely be excited to learn more. Again, thank you so much.
Side note... Have you found anything like the original book with which to continue the swatching? Or bought duplicate blanks from others? That doesn't look like there's many pages left, and we know you're not going to stop getting inks any time soon. ;)
😂 you are already in my brain • I have a few options. I have another smaller A&O journal… but I have some other Japanese pocket notebooks that I might try for a different paper quality
Everyday writing, 2. Visual punch, 1. Softer/more flowery writing, 3. Also, these are much more fluid/free flowing with a single drop then the fwp. How does the ink spread different between a fine and medium nib?
Thank you! Please do more fountain pen type content. My fountain pen nibs must have clogged due to neglect. Not poor treatment. Lack of use. I want to try fountain pens again without needing to purchase a new pen. Though, I will because I have my eye on one already.
I missed my chance at this box. 😥 The pen lesson is greatly appreciated. When I do get a fountain pen, I am considering the dip pens variety. Christina 🦝
Thanks for the video! It's been many years since I've used calligraphy inks and dip pens so it was a nice and easy to follow tutorial. I got the Halloween box and was THRILLED with it!!!
