In this New Pen Day video, I’m unboxing something a little off beat and basically talking myself through the classic question: why did I buy this pen? If you’re into fountain pen hauls and unboxings like I am, you already know the feeling—sometimes a pen just grabs you because it’s different, and then you have to sit there and justify it to yourself (and to your wallet). I share my first impressions and invite you to tell me what you think, because I genuinely love hearing other stationery people’s takes. I also point you toward a couple of places I shop when I’m in my “add to cart” era. I’m an affiliate with Atlas Stationers, and I share my code Brittany10 for 10% off each time (and my link in case the code acts up). I’ve also bought many of my fountain pens from Pen Chalet, and I include a referral link for 10% off your first order. If you’re hunting for your own next pen day, I list a bunch of my favorite online shops, too.
