I have a surprisingly large number of these inks including the Inkvent 2023 inks and several others. FWP Rhubarb is my favorite, so far, for that brand. And I am fond of saying that Foggy Green is my “go-to-black”. Great video, thanks.
I love your habit of mixing inks, it makes your ink collection so unique and interesting! I only do it if I don't like a colour, trying to make it more to my liking. Never really do it just for fun. Maybe I should. Lovely videos!
Ahhh thank you!! Yes I find whenever I am getting bored and wanting to buy more inks, trying to mix one to match one I want or just to play around prevents me from shopping about 10% of the time 😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣
Loving your Channel Elyse. I am learning quite a lot from watching your vids, as I am new to the Hobby. Best wishes from Chris over in Nottingham UK..🎉👍👍👍
Of mine or yours Elyse???? My favourite Pen at the moment is a Labane 325 Cambridge stub. I have Waterman Encre Noir in that but playing with the Diamine and Pilot irishozuki ranges in some of my others. Really like Diamine Aurora Bororalis 😊👍👍
Vinta Inks have been pretty reliable for me, but I DO tend towards wet writers. What I HAVE fount is that the Vinta bottles aren't air tight and so I've transferred the inks into different ink bottles. I've had 2 inks that I love but have barely used (probably filled up 2 pens) and when I went to use them, half of the bottle was empty.
@@Wholelatteplans I've had success with my Pilot brand pens (I'm generally an EF/F) user. I haven't experienced any of my Vinta inks writing dry, but for dryer inks I like to use Benu brand pens or the popular hand turned pens and they tend to be wet writers.
@@inksplat it's so frustrating...especially when it's a color you love. Aegean Armada is one of my favorite colors and it's one of my earliest Vinta bottles that was affected. I'm so thankful it wasn't a limited edition color.
Love so many of your picks, and especially the mixes! 😍 New subbie, and I really appreciate you talking about your challenges and fixes. Excited to see what’s next. 🥰
Fun to see your selections! I have one Vinta Ink… Laguna… and it has worked well for me, but it’s not a shimmer. The Diamine Season’s Greetings sounds quite similar to Pure Pens “Cwm Idwal”. I should have sent a sample of that to you to try. I like it a lot too.
I loveee vinta Laguna!! I think their standard inks are great. I saw another one recently called ochre that looks pretty!! Ooh I will put that one on my list to check out a sample of in the future!! 💝🫶🏻
Yeah, I was so overwhelmed with the amount of pens I had inked that I didn't even know how to pick my January pens and "start the year". My comfort zone seems to be a maximum of 10 pens. But it's accomplished and the video is schedule for Saturday. LOL.
I started to feel overwhelmed too and wanting a fresh start lol. I uninked half these pens last night and will continue to whittle down. I’m feeling like an ombré of pinks and browns and dirty greens for Feb 🌸🍂🌱
anyone else not like TWSBIs? Have tried them a few times but find them fat to hold and really uncomfortable and hard to hold w.o any dips / ergonomic bits for fingers. everyone else really seems to love them.
No I haven’t!!! Is that the yellow one that sheens green? Or am I thinking of something else? This notebook is by nanami seven seas on Amazon, if you search that and a5 notebook you will see it 💕

Thank you Chris!!! I’m so glad you’re enjoying them! What’s your favorite pen and ink so far?

Lovely lineup - thank you for the reminder about Vinta Night Sky. I forgot I had that ink… I haven’t used it in so long, I might throw it in a pen!!
Please tell me what pen you like it in!!! I want to find it a home that it won’t clog up! Lol
The fourth one down on the right, I won’t butcher the name, would be a PERFECT ink for the Bohemian Twilight blank!
🤣🤣🤣 go ooooooooon butcher it, we can't hear you anyway 😉
Ooooohhhhh
There are so many beautiful colors in here! Thanks for sharing, and giving us a calming fountain pen video to watch.
Ahhh thank you for watching! My pleasure 😁
The "extra" threads on the jinhao 82 are there so you can unscrew that tiny portion of the cap below the band 😉
Ahhh makes sense!! It looks weird on the clear ones lol!!
your colors are easy on my eyes, very nice
Aww that’s lovely thank you

Oh wow that’s crazy!!! Ok good to know I need to transfer them!! What sorts of pens/nibs do you use them in?

I also had to do this… with my Vinta Night Sky, actually

I just bought a bottle of Kookaburra Crest! Can’t wait to get it in a pen.
Ahhhhh yay that’s so exciting!!! Let me know what you think!! It is sooo beautiful
ever tried Vinta Sandugo Sikatuna? What notebook are you using?
No I haven’t!!! Is that the yellow one that sheens green? Or am I thinking of something else? This notebook is by nanami seven seas on Amazon, if you search that and a5 notebook you will see it 💕
I just want to get rid of my cinnabon sample
