wow this pen is adorable

Did you have to pay additional for customs?

so so cute and beautiful! thank you for sharing :)

Nice pen, love the color and the shape. Seems on my screen close to the color ivory. Do you know if a broad or true medium nib might be available for it?

I just found your channel! Great first fountain pen video. 🎉 New subscriber here ❤

Thanks so much for sharing, and for taking the time to list so many helpful links. I’m totally inspired. 🌺

It's a favourite of mine ❤

I love this flip through. It’s so beautiful inside and out. You’ve given me so many ideas. Thank you for sharing.

I bought the Buttered popcorn based on your swatching it here…and had to order it from Europe too. Cannot wait to get this unusual color , thanks for going in and doing this ❤

If you like buttered popcorn, you might enjoy Diamine Honey Burst. I suspect it's easier to get...

The issue with a lot of Ferris Wheel Press’ inks is that they have shimmers and it’s very difficult to use them with your fountain pens that have cartridges or pistons since these will clog them them. Dip pens, 100% ok

Recommend Pilot Take-Sumi, or Noodlers Heart of Darkness. Both have worked great in my VP. Be sure to shake HoD before filling.😊 By the way matte black is amazing!

I absolutely love the coffee section. I’ve been meaning to put a coffee section in my planner. 😊

I just got sample of Peter Moss and really liked it. But now I need to try a sample of Dancing Thyme. It looks like a really versatile ink. Enjoyed your swatches and comparison with Teranishi Opera Rose makes me think I should’ve gotten that instead of Colorverse Brunch Date.

Lovely pen of the sort one might find also with Leonardo or Asvine. I hope the Radius people can preserve their individual style. They certainly have brought forth a gorgeous resin. Thanks for the review!

I have been waffling on buying this exact pen for weeks! You convinced me!

Hi, I am new to your channel. I just wanted to say that I heard recently from a very knowledgeable RUclipsr that the muted colors are always going to be dryer. So you have to maybe even add a minuscule micro amount of the white lightning from Goulet Pens. But I found out the hard way that it can cause your ink to feather so it’s a hard call.

Diana thank you so much for a gorgeous and heartfelt review. I ordered my Medium Chai Latte immediately. Should have it within the next 2 days.

The scissors look like the sun-star stickyle scissors. I know jet pens sells them

I saw this pen while I was in Japan and didn’t get it. I come home and everyone’s ordering one 😅 the regret!!

Welp, I just bought a pen. Thanks for linking it lol

what a cute pen! i hope you have a good trip! :)

The Sad Charade is my favorite ink I’ve ever tried color-wise, it’s the perfect dusty blue-grey. I’ve written nearly an entire bullet journal with that ink 🖋️ I wonder how Sad Charade compares to Storied Blue?

treasured manuscript is one of my favourites! i bought it recently too, and its currently in my sailor medium mixed with bookkeepers brass. its dark enough to be read in a fine i think? though i write small and that makes inks look darker... it really is lovely to use as a base though! my ratio was 13 drops of treasured manuscript and 3 drops of bookkeepers brass (in a small bottle)

Sherwood Green was my first fountain pen ink! It's a beautiful color and I still use it super often (the huge bottle lol)

I found your channel by chance and i just love your enthusiasm for your own progress! Its really refreshing being a fountain pen beginner myself

You don't sound like a newbie. You're doing fine. Every fountain pen collection has to have at least one Lamy Safari. I have three ...so far. Eventually, you should try piston and vacuum fillers. You have to dip the pen in the ink bottle with them. Syringes are essential for eye dropper pens. The advantage to these three types is that your pen can hold more ink. I look forward to more of your videos.

WOW! You did an awesome job on your video. Your selection of inks go together nicely too. If I may help with the Japanese..."kitsune" (means "fox") sounds like kee-tsu-nay. The Hobonichi "Hon" ("hon" means book) is like the first syllable in Honolulu (minus the olulu 😅), so hoe + the "un" sound....hoe-un. And "Kakimori" would sound like kah-kee-mo-ri. So the "ki" is kee, rather than kay. I hope that helps. But regardless, I loved your video, with your pretty inks and your swatching format. Thank you so much for sharing your collection! When you do look back on this video someday, you ought to give yourself a big pat on the back. BRAVO! 👏🏻

Hi Diane, I just got a chai latte fountain 3776, my first pen, I’m so excited now just exploring some inks. Im a total newbie and new subscriber love watching your videos. Can I get the suppliers details thanks.

Loved this!!!!!

I would be willing to trade samples. That’s my plan for large bottles that I know I won’t use all of!!! If you are interested let me know…!

Hello Diana! You can buy other colours from the same line and mix them to create your own custom colour. There's also a cheat sheet on how to do it. platinumpenusa.com/wp-content/uploads/e_mixfree041.jpg

Thanks for sharing. Spadina is a main street in Toronto. It’s pronounced spa-dine-a. It used to be the centre of the fashion district. There are a number of FWP inks named for places in Toronto: Edwards garden, Bathurst blue denim, down the Don Valley (parking lot😂) , Morningside mint. Lovely choices. Thanks again 😊

"No no", "syringe warning"? You're too woke and snowflake sounding for me. Good luck

wow what a lovely selection of colours!! i hope you enjoy them in pens! also i don’t mean to nag but jsyk Spadina is actually pronounced spa-die-na (it’s named after a road in Toronto where i live) :) also FWP inks are known for being a bit on the dry side. thank you for sharing! 💛

I'm looking forward to the next one 💗

I loved the Sailor Kitsune Biyori. That is on my list. I bought the Opera Rose because of Kayrena, too. This was a fun video.

Super job!!!! No need to be worried! Swatching is a form of therapy for me. I hadn’t heard of your first two inks… now I’m putting them on my shopping list!!!!!

That is truly a very special pen!!! Congrats to you, Diana!!! Such a happy moment for you and thanks for sharing it! Enjoy writing and planning with it! All the best to you from a new subscriber 🤎🤍🤎

Hi Diana, new sub! I loveee Yumiko, she makes buying pens from Japan so nice and easy!! I love working with her. Was so happy to see you also worked with her to get this pen! I cannot wait to get my Chai Latte Shape of Heart! :) Japanese gold nibs are truly one of the best feeling nibs!!

you did a wonderful job for your first ink swatch video!! thank you for sharing. :) 💛 i love opera rose and i plan on getting a bottle of nostalgic honey at some point since i loved the sample i had. idk if anyone else has said but the new sanzen tomoe river paper that can be found in the hobonichi books tends to feather with heavier ink applications, so you didn’t do anything wrong, don’t worry.
