In this video I’m doing one of my favorite things: sitting down with new fountain pen goodies and actually putting them to work on paper. I’m unboxing and swatching a batch of inks I picked up from The Wet Pen, and I’m also taking a close look at a Benu fountain pen they kindly sent over for review. I talk through what I notice as I test—how the colors read in real life, what kind of vibe they give on the page, and the kinds of journaling moments they’re perfect for (weekly spreads, cozy little illustrated bits, and those satisfying “just one more swatch” sessions). Because my journaling is very much about the whole experience—pen + ink + paper—I’m thinking out loud about where these inks might shine and what I’d reach for them for in my own sketchy, illustrated journaling style. I also share where you can find The Wet Pen’s ink selection, point you to Benu’s “Haute” collection if you’re curious, and I mention a few helpful links: Cat Collage Club if you want monthly cat-themed printables, my free printable, and my Endless Pens discount code if you’re shopping around. If you love fountain pens, inks, and that cozy stationery rabbit hole, this one’s for you.
