Kon Peki has a lot of aficionados! 🩵

I’m glad you found it helpful! Thank you for your kind words! ❤️‍🔥

Thank you for dropping by and for sharing your thoughts. I sometimes skip through to the parts that interest me when watching other people’s work. We all have different interest points, and all of them are appreciated in the FP world. ☺️

@@kikaykrafts unboxing and exploring / appreciating the packaging is part of the experience. I am always curious, most especially for special collab pens and limited edition ones. 🫰🫶

Thank you! I hope your system is all set too! 🥰

It was meant to be! I hope you enjoy it. 😊

The Astronaut is quite a unique piece, isn't it? It's been a fun addition to the collection. 😊 The Golden Gratitude fills me with joy whenever I use it! 💛

I’m so glad you think so! I’m delighted with this addition to my collection. 😊

Thank you for stopping by and getting a pen using my code! Much appreciated! ♥️

Alternative 5 is Dora (The Animal Series) by TNT Space. I’m not quite sure if Labubu clothes fit, as Dora’s clothes are sewn together and cannot be removed. Labubu shoes are too small. Bags and camera slings can be adjusted to fit, but I haven’t tried the hats.

@ aww thank you so much for your reply 🫶🏻

It’s a great pen! Sadly, I believe it was a limited release sometime 2016. 😔 I got my Kanji nib from a local seller in the Philippines. Where are you based?

Yes! It is fountain-pen friendly! Here’s the link to the video: Small Notebooks for Fountain Pen Users | Traveler’s Notebook | Leuchtturm | Hobonichi | BuJo th-cam.com/video/4IWeKJCSN_Q/w-d-xo.html

@@kikaykrafts Thanks!

I’m considering getting an M5 in case this gets heavy, or maybe the Bible to replace my Weeks for work in 2026. Having a thinner notebook is surely a win. Where do you store your pages?

@@kikaykrafts The empty pages I store on my shelf of course, but what I do is put the used ones that I am keeping as memories in the project folders and then put them in the box for now. I do not have many so I'll consider another option when I start getting the box filled up. The project pages acts like an index to show me what's inside. After I have retired pages, there is no need to carry them everyday so that makes rings so great.

I have not experienced that yet, though I have kept sheening inks away from lighter-coloured pens.

I know the feeling! It seems like the pens just keep multiplying, even when you try to be mindful. 😅

That is so interesting! I wonder what makes the color come across differently. 🧐 Is it the paper, too, perhaps?

Thank you for dropping by! It’s always a pleasure to share. 💜

I agree; it’s an ongoing process to discover what resonates with you! I was quite surprised to find more black than blue pens in my collection. 🤭

Thank you! I enjoy darker greens, so I was surprised to find Esterbrook Sea Glass as one of my more used pens. Oh. And are you team green-and-gold or green-and-silver? 😆

@@kikaykrafts to be honest, probably green/gold, but I love green so much that green silver is great too !! Just give me the greens. My favorite green ink is Noodler's Army green which is more olive

I’m with you on the green-gold pairing AND that silver does not deter me either. 😁 Olive green inks are lovely. Might need to check that ink. Thanks for the tip!

That first month-or those first few months, rather-were CRAZY. I wanted to try them all. And since the FP community here rarely meets, I felt I needed to buy what I wanted to try. My toy budget and I are glad those days are over. 😆

@@kikaykrafts where are your wooden storage cases from esp the light one

@@crystalmariedeleon338The light brown one is from Toyooka Craft. You can find him on Instagram. It’s his 40-pen Fountain Pen Box in Wisteria.

I have about 7 always inked. I like piston fillers, that’s whats so nice about FPs, something for everyone!

@@fountainpensinksmore3290So very true! It makes me appreciate pen makers that provide the same or similar pens in cartridge-converter AND piston- or button-fillers. ❤

That is quite an exciting moment! Glad to have contributed towards it. ❤️

Thank you! ❤️

It’s waiting for me in Manila. Can’t wait to swatch it and enjoy this year’s colours! 🥰

🤭 Sometimes, a little detour is good for the mind. 😆 This is my little alleyway adventure ☺️

It might be a good idea to purchase and explore a few more Leuchtturm1917 notebooks from various countries to explore this idea. I was surprised to learn that counterfeit versions even exist in the market. I've noticed some notebooks resembling Leuchtturm1917s, albeit under different brand names. This exploration could prove to be quite exciting. Not sure about Asia being the biggest market for faking German products. I’m interested in seeing your source for that bit of trivia.

OMG THAT COCOA’S JUMPSUIT❤❤❤ where did u get emmmm

I totally get you! 🤭 But she’s been moved to a plastic protector case, so all’s good. 😄

Tokopedia, where else? 😆

@@kikaykrafts ahh you need to show me your collections! Also link pls 🤭🤭🤭

Thank you for dropping by and sharing such a comprehensive guide to those curious about how to recycle their notebooks - or make their own from loose-leaf. Isn’t it great how the stationery world has so much space for crafty people to explore? I love it!

Thank you for dropping by and subscribing. Much much appreciated. 💖 But oh so much more gladder you found something you were looking for. ❤️ Which notebook(s) made you curious? 👀

@@kikaykrafts I use a pocket size for my EDC with field notes. Been wondering what else is out there bc I want to use my fountain pens. I love the Pilot and Galen Leather books you showed. I will have to save up so I have those!

I get them from Tokopedia. It’s Indonesia’s local online market place, much like Amazon. 📦

Thank you so much! Well. I guess that’s my sign to get more 🤭

Thank you! That was sweet of you to say. 🥰

Is that one of the MBs with a diamond floating on the top finial? Pretty ones. I’d love to see a picture of this one as they’re pretty rare to see posted online. 💎

It is! Such a lovely soft nib too! 🤍

True enough for true ink collectors (who have a lot of space 😆). If I could have the hobby room I’ve been dreaming of, perhaps I won’t be letting go. But some part of me also thinks of resources and how inks should be used and not just stored. Maybe I’m just in the phase of letting go. 🥰

@ …your husband is getting nervous reading this? 🤣👍

He’s been receiving pictures of how I want it to look and I believe he’s thinking I need quite a BIG hobby room. 🤣

Sure. Will do soon. ☺️

Thank you! It was frustrating to see someone use my photos to try and scam other collectors. I’m very glad someone in the community saw them and reported the person early on. We need to watch out for each other. Samplers are always good to have - though I must admit my vial collection is also getting out of hand. 😅

This is a great idea! I think I’ll do just that. 😊

I do that as well when I'm getting rid of a bottle.

EXTREME sheen at that! They were fun to swatch. Not sure if I dare ink my pens with them, but that would be fun! 😆

They are sweet! The link is in the description. Please note that it is to a local Indonesian marketplace - much like Amazon. I’m not sure if they ship worldwide, but you can always ask the sellers. 😊

Yes! ❤️

Oooh. You’re one to talk! Must be like a little pocket of heaven there, and you’re spoilt for choices! 🥰 Safe travels! I hope you find the sweetest babies to fill your luggage with! (Which ones are your favourites? 😁)

Thanks! Did a colour comparison when I analyzed the Colorvent in a subsequent video. It’s a non-spoiler spoiler too. I compared it by color with Inkvent through 2022-2024. ☺️ Was surprised at the results.

I agree. The stickers can get loose, too, and then it becomes a guessing game of sorts. ☺️

I love mine! The nib is soooooo soft!

They are 😍

Popmart company din po b ung mga nommi, lila at bao ao?

@@luciadelacruz6858Nope. Bao-ao comes from CQtoys. Nommi from Hi Toy.
