One thing that has kept me from trying a glass pen: if the tip gets chipped, broken, or worn the whole pen is trash. If there was a way to switch out the tips like with traditional dip pens or repurpose the pen I'd have tried these a long time ago!
Cleaning pens: Ordinary ammonia, which you can buy in the cleaning supplies department, works very well on India Ink. Loved your video. I subscribed, and I'm looking forward to watching more of your videos.
Heyy! Everything looks great.. However i have a question if thats okay.. why glass pen? Whats different in it that makes it attractive? I dont mean this question in a bad way, its an honest doubt because i wanna buy them but i just need a good reason :)
Hey there, I'm two years late to this but basically it's a matter of preference. Unlike metal dip pens, glass pens don't rust over time and are easier to clean. Some inks are runny and don't adhere well to a metal nib as well as they do to a glass nib. They're usually smoother and hold more ink than a metal dip pen, making them suitable for writing. But in the end it all comes down to preference. Glass dip pens break easier, if the tip gets chipped you will have to sand them to a point, if you like the roughness of the metal nibs and choose to not work with runny inks, it won't matter as much. You can try it out if you like, they seem fancy but are not very expensive at all. I don't recommend if you have pets or children running around the house though, since glass dip pens break easily when handled improperly.
I have a glass pen and ink I got yesterday for Christmas and using it but being careful with the ink because it bleeds through the paper what should I do?
Sometimes you have to thoroughly clean it first. And ink can start to dry in the grooves after 3-4 dips, so keep a jar of water when you draw to periodically clean/wet the pen and prevent ink drying in the crevices. Keep a piece of paper towel handy to wipe of water, rub off the dry ink.
So I really need help! I bought a new glass dip pen (the one with a longer nip) and accidentally chipped the tip of it. Do I sand it down or something? I would really appreciate some advice.
I'm not sure what you mean by longer nip, but you can definitely try sanding it down to see if that helps. Sometimes they are still usable, but depending, you may need a new one
Do you know what the strange squares of cloth like sheets that have adhesive on one side & the wierd packets filled with some dark grainy substance in with the words .. please put adhesive sheet on this side ... Is used for ? Please it's making me Nuttz 😇

I think you can sand the tip if it gets worn down
Yeah you can
I mean you can always keep it as a decoration to if you want
I was hoping if it get chipped, you could get varying strokes 😅 I guess it's just my imagination
They’re quite cheap and you can always shape the tip with sandpaper or a file if it chips… so don’t let that hold you back from getting 1… or 3!
You're such a great teacher Hannah!
Thank you for this!
Love your work
So glad this was helpful!
Excellent, excellent instruction! Thank you. You hit potential mistakes, troubleshooting or questions before they arise. Bravo!
Great instructions. Thanks! Just starting on this new adventure. Can't wait!
when cleaning; I just use tap water then wipe it with tissue paper/paper towel.
a ruling pen is better at least 75% cheaper, and can produce different line sizes 🎉

How do you clean glass pens?
I have a video on this on my channel!
Can I use any kind of ink while using a glass pen?
can you help me? my pen can't write and I don't know if I have to do something before I use it. I got sand paper with it
I'm not sure why you got sand paper with it. I would recommend my glass pen kit that I custom curate. It is linked in my video

How much is your glass pen
Where can I buy this pen?
itsdesignedbyhannah.com/collections/glass-pen-kits
Can I please get one
www.itsdesignedbyhannah.com You can purchase on my website!
You can buy these on AliExpress for 5 or 6 bucks. I wouldn't bother with the ink though, it's crap.
