♥ Frequently Asked Questions ♥
Q: Do you plan before, during, or after the week?
A: It varies from video to video, but typically I plan 2-3 times during the week and stitch the clips together. I rarely plan the entire week in advance or the entire week retroactively.
Q: Do you use all of these planners?
A: Yes and no. Every week, there is something in my life that takes priority over the others whether it be school, work, or something personal. Depending on the week, I select a few planners that will help me achieve my tasks! So not every planner is used every week.
Q: How do you get so much done in a day?
A: If you watch any of my journaling vlogs, you’ll realize that I have very poor sleeping habits and so naturally I’m able to fit more things into the day. It’s something I’m trying to fix but admittedly this is the only reason.

@twitch7515 Год назад

The "never dry" aspect of Majestic Blue can be found in many sheening inks. Sheen is the result of highly-concentrated dye that doesn't get absorbed into the paper. The dye forms a layer of tiny, fragile crystals that are easily reactivated into ink by pressure and moisture, such as finger oils. Majestic Blue is one of the more behaved sheening inks. I've never had it create sheen dust but I'm a lefty and I avoid wet pens. If Majestic is misbehaving then consider putting it into a pen with a drier flow. Good luck finding a suitable yellow! If you find one, let us know! Diamine's Louise (Little Lou for a 30mL bottle), a CultPens exclusive, is the best yellow that I've found so far but I mostly stick to browns. KWZ's Honey, Diamine's Amber, and Diamine's Sunshine Yellow are all on my wishlist. As an aside: I'm fond of Carl Jung and his positive, empowering view of anxiety. If he hasn't already crossed your desk, give him a shot! I watched one of your "plan with me" videos. Your planners are works of art! I don't think I'll ever get that involved with my own planner but watching you make yours was a satisfying experience. It is nice to see that kind of passion and I wish you the best in your endeavors!

@nico5486 2 года назад

Hi there! Lovely video as always! The "Eisen-Gallus-Tinte" is the classification of the ink as an iron gall ink (it really quite smells, doesn't it?). The colour name is "Scabiosa". I'm not quite sure on the name but I think it's either inspired by scarab beetles or a flower called Skabiose (pincushion flowers?). And your German pronunciation is really good for not speaking the language, no worries at all! Greetings from Germany

@anitaqueenofdownton5338 2 года назад

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for this video! I want to learn more about fountain pens and this is a great start. I look forward to your next videos, and then down the rabbit hole we go! I’m excited to try something new for my journals, and I’ve been thinking about fountain pens for a while as I watch others using them…. I’ve been hesitant to spend any money on them as I don’t know where to start and I don’t want to have regrets. I appreciate that you’ve been using these for years and have a broad experience that you bring to this topic. I trust your opinions and hope to start my collection soon. Have a lovely day; it should be SO MUCH cooler for us. Blessings!

@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo 2 года назад

My pleasure Anitaaa! I will be sure to do a starter guide soon to hopefully make diving in not as overwhelming! This means a lot to me, thank you again Anita! Have a great day!

The Sailor 350 is one of my favorites! Then I had to order an inexpensive dip pen because I liked yours so much! This was a great video! I got a chance to see what colors/colours I might want to add.

@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo 2 года назад

Yes it's sooo gorgeous! I hope you love it--I can't imagine doing other ink swatches without the conveinece of a dip pen now~

@t.l.wright-brickhouse6579 2 года назад

A beautiful yellow/gold color that I absolutely adore is Diamine Honey Burst. Perfectly legible and just a dope color.

@addicted2color 2 года назад

Thank you for sharing your beautiful collection with us. I have added some items to my wish list. I love fun colors, but I definitely find that some colors, as you’ve mentioned, are hard tor read for written writing. My next full size bottle will be Kon Peki, but I have been mainly purchasing sample sizes to get to try out many colors. As much as I love shimmer inks, they tend to clog my fountain pens.

@LUMISHOCK Год назад

This was cool to watch. Gotta go pick up the Earl Grey. I wasn't sure about how to use glass nib pens too so I'm glad you mentioned how easy it was. "Intense Book" made me chuckle, heh. Thank you for swatching!!

@veraserah 2 года назад

You’re spoiling us with an extra video this week 😍 I’m also pleasantly surprised we share so many similar ink choices, though I probably am hugely influenced by your style anyways! Ahhh I’m always torn between digital notetaking and traditional note taking with fountain pens but purchasing more might help me make that decision 🤪 I just love how different inks in different pens on different papers can all create a different effect, it’s exciting to use fountain pens \o/

@lysandralu7118 Год назад

So many gorgeous inks! If you’re still looking for a yellow, my go-tos are Kyo-no-Oto Yamabukiiro and Sailor Ink Studio 280 💛 they’re more of a dusty chartreusey yellow so it’s pretty readable imo!

@manuelsalazar3938 4 месяца назад

Yamabukiiro is my favorite yellow too, a little dry but still great. Also love Sailor x Tinterías Home made tortilla and Hao You Liang Yellow which is an obscure chinese ink I found recently.

@1001reasons1968 2 года назад

I really enjoyed it. It's so interesting. I have just this year started buying beginner fountain pens. I've only bought cartridges so far but I like to think into the future about buying ink bottles.

@badpoetry33 Год назад

And of course will probably get some of the Sailor colour you have 😄 I love Kon-Peki as well.

@manuelsalazar3938 4 месяца назад

Well, it's funny that for J. Herbin english speaking people pronounce the J in english and Herbin in some sort of french 😅 In french the J is pronounced similar to the G in english, so that'd be the correct sound. I've been a fountain pen user for almost two decades and a half and you're the very first person I find in RU-vid that truly understands my need for finer nibs, I too can write two lines of text inside a single line of a college ruled sheet 😌 I only use needlepoints, EF, F and custom grind 0.7 stubs, not even M works for me 😅 I wish the best for you and that your channel gets bigger so you keep sharing your experiences, kudos for you Helen 😎

@mariesavoie6096 2 года назад

Really loved this video. Thank you for sharing. Always appreciate your choices for inspiration. We have a few colors in common. If you ever come across Robert Oster Summer Storms, I believe you would like it. A gray varying between light and dark with hints of dark blue. Thanks again!

@rds4629 2 года назад

thanks for the video. I love sailor 123 though oddly enough I considered it as a grey ink. I haven't used dip pens, do you notice such a dramatic difference in the line width if you write on the rhodia paper first? Some other inks you might like though they are perhaps more fun are Herbin's Lie De The, and Vert De Gris.

@MorganScorpion 2 месяца назад

Thank you for making this, I love your handwriting. There's a great selection there. As you love blue inks, I thought I'd recommend Edelstein's Topaz.

@jonathanoehlert5672 Год назад

Thank you for sharing. I currently reside in the Lower Mainland as well. I really like Pilot's Yama Budo. I'm still looking for a black ink that I like. The closest to a legible yellow is Apache Sunset, which has a lot of orange, too. I love blues. My favorite lately is Organic Studio Nitrogen.

I loved seeing your fountain pen ink collection and have been wanting to try the Sailor 123 ink... I also have been searching for a nice see-able yellow fountain pen ink as well... So far I like Rohrer & Klingner Helianthus (Sunflower) Ink.Taiwan (TWSBI) nibs. I am working on having a good color scheme (in rainbow colors) of some go to fountain pen inks. Thanks for the video :)

@chillypingu17 2 года назад

As a yellow I can recommend Rohrer&Klingners Helianthus. It's a very sunny, bordering on golden yellow. I don't notice the smell though, so this is something to keep in mind

@aquanitemare 2 года назад

Yoseka Stationery came out with a collaboration collection that has a nice yellow. I've been eyeing it, not sure how legible it is, but it looks nicely saturated on the photos 💛 And Bungubox in Japan (ships internationally) has Ebisu which is a "gold". I have more inks than I need, so I'm trying to buy samples instead now 😅

@aero33888 2 года назад

I've had the same drying problem as the Diamine Majestic Blue with Parker Quink inks. I've tried using regular papers, blotting papers, and tissue paper to get rid of the excess, but usually nothing comes off. Then, if I run my fingers over the writing, ink smears everywhere.

I completely understand the anxiety because I deal with it too! I always hate getting unexpected phone calls when I’m in the middle of something because my nerves are always frayed afterwards! 😵‍💫 I currently have over 40 inks from different brands (pilot, oster, diamine, etc) and I know it’s waay more than I need, but I plan on getting more!🤪 When it comes to ink colors, I tend to gravitate more towards reds and greens. I’m not sure why though… 🧐 Maybe it’s because every time I take one of those “which Hogwarts house are you in?” quizzes, I’m always put in either griffindor or slytherin? 🤷‍♀️

@carriebartkowiak 2 года назад

I love the Pilot Kakuno in a Fine nib. It's about $12, I get the completely clear case so I can see my pretty ink rolling around inside. The Platinum Preppy is also a good pen, about $6, but it feels kinda cheap. Still, if you don't know if you'll like writing with a fountain pen, I'd say get yourself a Preppy in a Fine (03) or above; Extra Fine (02) is super scratchy and not pleasant to write with. If you like the Preppy, then get a Kakuno and try it. From there you might want to branch out and try others, or you might just stick with the Kakunos. :) Jinhao also makes some gorgeous pens for about $4-8 each but their idea of "medium" is pretty "bold" to me, so I had to change out the nibs. They're all metal and have a really nice weight and feel to them. You just can't see the ink inside! The X450 is super solid, the X750 is noticeably lighter (but still much more "real pen" feeling than any of the plastic fountain pens).

I’ve swatched new inks in an unlined Cosmo Air notebook, also using glass pen identity, but bigger swipe with an Automatic Pen. Many inks don’t readily reveal themselves in 1/4” confined boxes. Think going bigger, you won’t fit as much as you’ve catalogued per page, but so what?

@carriebartkowiak 2 года назад

My absolute favorite black is Platinum Carbon Ink. It's waterproof, so once it's dry, you can go over it with a Tombow and not smear anything. Plus it's BLACK black. Not like those chalky blacks or blue-blacks.

Very interesting - let's see if my local dealer has some of the inks shown here in stock. Be aware of the "Eisen Gallus Tinte" its very aggresive, it can damage your pens (Eisen Gallus is a kind of Acid) PS: I would never have thought that an ink presentation could be so erotic :D PPS: If you need some German Lessons, inform me ;)
