@@EnsignInsights woaw, is this GREAT!!! Thanks🙏🤲❤
Thank yu
😮
Saved the video to my “hand lettering” playlist. NEVER would have thought about all these supplies!
Oh awesome! I’m so glad this helps!!
I absolutely can't live without a "scribble book". No matter what project i begin, i always have a very cheap blank tiny book besides me, where i can try out stuff, before i decide if i want to use it in my final design or not. I try our spacing as well as some decorative pieces and if it would look good in my final project. This way i don't have to get rid of old little notepads or old sketchbooks i wouldn't use otherwise.
I love that idea! A scribble book sounds perfect. Because it’s a notebook you don’t care about, you’re free to make mistakes and explore! Thanks for sharing!
Very useful tips on supplies to have. Thank you so much for sharing!🌹🌹🌹😊❤️❤️❤️
Omg all of them but new to me was the laser tape measure. Genius!
An eraser shield! It helps so so much when you don't want to gerade everything. You can also use it as a stencil or a small ruler.
So understand need to see your pens;The plastic stackable snap and stack works Perfectly!
Thanks for letting me know! That's great!
I like the laser light for straight lines. That was new to me. I'm thinking my next bullet journal is going to be blank. I really don't like the dots in my final look, and the laser will help me with my new journal.
Ooh yes! I think a laser level would really help with that! I understand wanting the dots for alignment but not wanting them in the final piece!
Nice video. I just ordered the Black and Decker Laser Level. Thank you.
Loveeee the clear draws. Great tips thanks
Thanks for watching!
So super helpful, thank you. Thank you for showing how these supplies can make the project a bit easier to create.
I’m so glad you found this helpful! Thanks for watching!
I love those clear bags that you suggested. They are great to keep my pens together when I am on the go. Also a ruler that rolls I have found to be a must as well. Thank you sharing your top ten.
Yes!! They’re great! And I haven’t tried a ruler that rolls! I’m going to add that to my list!
Thank you! As someone who isn’t great but wants to get better at calligraphy, this is so helpful!
Oh good! I’m so glad this helps!
Thank you for the video, some really good ideas, I have now ordered the Helix circle maker, as that will be very handy for all aspects of my card making. Love the idea of clear storage, I don't like having to rifle through to find things either, slowly expanding my storage to make things easier to find, as over time we do seem to buy more things. The laser light is a brilliant idea too!
Aww yes! Clear storage was a game changer for me!
Less of a priority, but I found that I’ve been using a corner rounding punch very frequently. Also, small boxes for paper scraps and a larger document box for full sheets of paper can help keep things organized. The other really strange thing I use a lot is a small white board to help keep track of projects or plan quick layouts out.
Also, depending on the style of calligraphy, having a solid, smooth board to hold at an angle can also be very helpful =)
I use clear boxes for my pens and then have a smaller non-clear bag that I keep in my backpack with a variety of older supplies for being on the go.
Ooh yes! Thanks for sharing! I want to try a corner rounding punch!
That's so helpful. Thank you!
I admire you a lot. Keep sharing your insights!
I’m so glad it helped!!
Awesome video as always ♥️ Definitely going to be purchasing a few of these!!
Aww thanks for watching friend!!
Love this video. Thanks so much.
I’m so glad it helps!
clear containers for pens - thank you for the recs!
Yes! It’s been a game changer for me!!
I use washi and frisket a lot, everything that's on your list I use but also I have markers that when they run out I clean them out and use alcohol in them to blend alcohol based markers. I also keep a new men's razor (random I know) but when felt nibs start to fray I have a technique to shave off those frays and make the nib come to a point again
Ok you are blowing my mind with that razor trick! I need to try that!!
this is very helpful. thank you for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks so much friend so cool seeing these work. Glad for the insights and help! :)
Thank you friend! I’m glad it’s helpful!
Awesome video, ordered the light box and the circle tool right away. I already have that B&D laser Gadget and it’s really awesome and versatile. Thx again for posting this, lots of great tips 🤗👍
I’m so glad you can relate! Thanks for watching!
Hii, I always enjoy your videos! Thank you for Sharing!
Thank you for this video! I am a beginner and the laser level is a game changer for me.
I’m so glad it’s helpful!! Thanks for watching!
Great video!!! Thank you!! The iPad also has a few apps that turn your iPad into a light pad and it's really helpful if you want to try or can't afford one right away.
Ooh that’s so helpful! For someone who already has an iPad that’s perfect!
I would add a gum eraser (Marshalls) to the list. It works beautifully on all kinds of pencils. I love it!
Ooh I totally agree! Gum erasers erase so well!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for watching!
Thank you you have given me some really good ideas
I’m so glad it helped! Thanks for watching!
I loved this!
Thanks for watching!
thank u this helped alot thx
Thanku for sharing it was super helpful
I love using clear make up bags and clear acrylic to organize my supplies!
It's a game changer!
@@EnsignInsights Definitely agree! I used to never use my supplies because I couldn't see them :(
Great tips in this video!
Glad it was helpful!
very awesome video sarah all the best and keep it up
Thank you for watching! I’m glad it helps!
The final product was just wow
Thank you!
Amazing video! Added some of the items to my wish list. New subscriber here!
Oh awesome! Thank you for subscribing! I'm so glad you're here!
I'm definitely would love to add the laser pad, clear containers and the helix circle maker. Loved this video. Was so helpful. You could also add stencils (like the circle maker) with different shapes like stars, lines etc. With Which we can do different background shapes Or writing cardboard pads and paper clips to hold paper especially bullet journal. I use them all the time
Ooh I love that addition!! What are your favorite stencils?
@@EnsignInsights I love the stencil with different circles, & even with capital alphabets for doing quick handlettering practice 😅
Thank you so much your videos are helping me so much because there are very less caligraphy class in India (I want to also buy caligraphy book)
It was a really helpful video for beginners 😃😃
Thanks for throwing lights on these types of topics too
They are really helpful ma'am ☺
I’m so glad it helps! Some of these are random but I use them all the time!
@@EnsignInsights 😄
Ahhhhhh, for Rainbows!
🌈🌈🌈
Its so true!! Once you get one washi tape, you’re gonna want to get them all!! 🙈 i cant stop buying them!
Exactly!! They're just too cute!!
What brush markers are you using right at the beginning of the video? :)
You said about the kneaded eraser could erase pencil below color, I would have liked to see that. Great video, though.
Oh that’s a good clarification! I didn’t mean it to sound like kneaded erasers can erase under ink. They just help to get the pencil light enough that you can still see it, but not under the ink. Thanks for bringing that up! And thanks for watching!
@@EnsignInsights Oh sorry, I mixed that up
Lmfao! I never thought of this as a calligraphy tool! Genius!!! Someone should make girly laser levels now. And give me not even 10%, just 5😂
I was waiting for water brush in your video and yeay you included it!!!!!!!
Oh and one thing I wanna ask, how did you save your finished project? I means you've done this for years now so must be a lot to save but how did you save them? Thank you for sharing this with us. I always wanted the laser...oh and the kneaded eraser, I saw a lot of them at the store but never thought to try them..might try to get them soon too.
Oh yay! Thanks for watching! With my old lettering pieces, some I keep, some I give away. I showed a little more of that in this video: th-cam.com/video/xbuK1j2g1vc/w-d-xo.html
@@EnsignInsights thanks!
Thanks for video. Where did you get storage case with 8 sections around 3:13 minutes in video
I got it from Joanns! The brand is Artbin. I’ve seen something similar at Michael’s. I’ll look on Amazon and see if I can find someone similar to add to my list!
that colour looks so pretty! What pen is it? ❤️
The first one? That’s my neon Karin markers!
❣❣❣❣❣
Where din u buy your pens organizer
I put all of the links to these in my amazon favorites linked in the description! :)
Hi where would I be able to get all the stuff from I'm learning how to hand letter and struggling with supplies I'm hoping you can reply and leave the link on it to help me would mean a lot love your vids I'm subscribed thank you for your time.
Thanks for sharing
Congrats on book launch , I want to get it but I cannot find anywhere here in India .
I get that! That’s so hard! There is a kindle version so hopefully that helps!
@@EnsignInsights thank you
Hello! Great video! I am wondering what pen you used at 7:03 thank you 🙏 ❤️
That’s my Marvy deco color gold marker! 👍
@@EnsignInsights do you have a link to the marker? Trying to find it but not sure what tip it is!
How can I learn to write like that?
I use my window to trace things 😆
That's perfect and totally works!
Hi
first 😁😁
Thanks for watching!
I wanna give someone a gift, but, idk what right paper or pads to use. : (
You may need to experiment on different paper according to your project! You can find a good card stock. I also like Bristol smooth paper for a good quality thick paper!
Po
Oh god, you said too truths about washi tape.
They're being cute is just enough for wanting to buy them;
Yes, once you buy one, you want them all!!!
Haha that’s so true!! They’re all just so pretty!
Do you REGULARLY purchase bullet journaling supplies from any companies OWNED by BIPOC (Black, Indigenous and other People of Color)?
Do you mention/shout out/boost BIPOC creatives? This DOES NOT include during Black History Month, Latinx Heritage Month and Native Indigenous Heritage Month.
