Did you really?!? I didn’t want to say this in my video but the Megalodon (as another commenter pointed out) is not supposed to be that color. You probably saw that when you ordered it. I have reached out to BPC with photos. It’s a lovely shade of green but just not what I expected given the swatch on the website.

@@thejoyinpensandpaper890 I really did buy them all. I wouldn't want to break up the set :-) I gravitate to those muddy green browns. Your swatches really displayed those qualities and beautiful shading. Megalodon is one of my favorites.

Thank you so much!

“And this video” 😂happy to be a distraction and I’m proud of you for getting that work done!

So I also wondered if it’s a mislabeled bottle! I have been pausing on checking the website to see if it’s a very different color. I might reach out to BPC and send them a picture (but I also hate being that person). It is a lovely green though!

​@@thejoyinpensandpaper890 I distinctly remember watching another video where this happened and the bottle was mislabeled. I believe they had a positive outcome with the company, but you would be doing them a favor to alert them to this mistake so they can check and fix any other mislabeled bottles. 🤗

There are so many more that I want! I love all of the earthy tones

My inkvent is in the mail and I’m still debating if I want to open it early or save it for December and if I want to be surprised… can you tell me, is the Marley ink pretty? I decided to get this inkvent because of that ink as my dog is Marley

I could live in fall almost all year long! I love these colors and this palette

@@thejoyinpensandpaper890 me too!!

These are so pretty and I want so many more!

I am enjoying seeing which inks come forward as favorites - you have a few inks that are favorites by all (so far). Thank you for sharing your selections with me!

Thank you! I am loving picturing the combinations that people are choosing and what pens I would use! This brought me joy in not only swatching out these lovely inks but getting the interaction with each of you!

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I did too! I looked forward to checking my comments all day at work today!

Thank you! I love the palette these create! I appreciate you sharing your choices with me!

I don’t know why I haven’t done the ideas page before… I’ve just flipped through my Wearingeul swatch book. This was fun and it looks beautiful! I keep looking at it to admire the inks! Plus, I’m taking data on people’s responses because I love data!

@@thejoyinpensandpaper890 yay!!! That is awesome. I started doing the ideas page last year and loved it so much. I agree. It is so nice to look at. I’m happy you are doing it and get votes is awesome!!! I’ll come vote every month 😊

I can't fully express how much your support means!

Honorable mentions are very welcomed! Thank you for sharing your favorites! I appreciate it!

Thank you! I really loved swatching these out as part of the planning process as I typically will just flip through a swatch book that has different paper than the notebooks I write in.

Welcome to the hobby!

I would use gray ink every month as it’s my favorite!!! There will be a pen (likely not shown) with a gray or black ink - any recommendations? I’ve been missing Pelikan Edelstein moonstone so I’m leaning towards that

@@thejoyinpensandpaper890 I’m excited to use Wearingeul’s A Room of Ones Own. It’s got shimmer in it but dries down to a beautiful grey colour 😀😀 Also, have you tried Van Diemans Laughing kookaburra Crest? It’s probably my other favourite grey at the moment. It does all sorts of cool shifty stuff.

Have you inked up incredible rock yet? How does it do? Love those choices! (Obviously I love them all, but I like the balance between dark and light and the pop of green)

What a great combination of choices!!! I showed my husband the options and he said the palette (my word, not his 😂) was very November!

I love the Pilot e95s - the pilot elite from eBay was not the real deal. If looking to buy from eBay, look for the sailor 21k which is a similar body style as the Pilot e95s and it's amazing!

@@thejoyinpensandpaper890 thankyou 🙏

I haven’t heard of Fountainfeder - I’ll have to check that out! Thank you for watching and please feel free to come back! Since this video I started a series called Three Inks Thursday where I compare three inks on three different types of paper and three nib sizes

I think Karyna from Karyna loves to plan talked about it recently which is likely where my mind was thinking so it was fairly common

I cannot figure out how to enjoy writing with a stub nib! For some reason I can’t place it on the page in a way that allows for a consistent flow of ink and then I just don’t get the opportunity to enjoy the line variations. It’s a real challenge 😂

They’re al stunning and perfect for this time of year! If I was more artistic I would use them to draw the leaves that I see all around me!

Thank you! I enjoy doing this! (But secretly I wish it reached more people because I think it’s fun, interesting, and informative!)

For me, it is not enough for a full year. When I used it as a planner/bullet journal I needed two to get through the year. It has 171 pages for notes.

@@thejoyinpensandpaper890 Thanks!

I would agree that it’s not a straight up green and thank you for the kind words!!!

It’s so very interesting! I love seeing the differences on various papers!

Thank you!! It’s a great book and if you do the exercises it’s really helpful!

@@thejoyinpensandpaper890 do you have any other recommendations for separating thoughts and feelings from our actions/us?

Anything by Dr Stephen Hayes and Dr Russ Harris - Get Out of Your Mind and Into Your Life, The Happiness Trap, The Worry Trap, and A Liberated Mind (that one is really good!) - if I find others I’ll share!

@@thejoyinpensandpaper890 thank you so much for sharing these authors!!!!

Me too!!

I really like both colors! Colorverse behaves really well even in a fine nib. I’ll ink up taranishi and be able to comment on that but it wrote well in the sample here

#livingontheedge 😂 it was wild to see it change! I don’t pre-swatch so I didn’t know that would happen!

I really love my greens! I am leaning towards not thinking about a theme next month outside of my favorites. I’m ready to simplify!

@@thejoyinpensandpaper890 yes!! Do it. I am all for chosing whatever makes you happy. Simplicity is wonderful.

You should! It’s a beautiful base color and the chameleon shimmer makes it really fun to write with!

Me too!!

Olive swirl is a special ink! Definitely one of my favorites

These are all really pretty!

I got mine on fountain pen day last year and it was a really good deal - I think through endless pens or Goldspot so keep an eye out for that! I have been gravitating toward using it with Diamine triple chocolate the last few days so I’m glad I switched that one out

@@thejoyinpensandpaper890 sometimes it's not worth keeping a pen inked if it doesn't get used. I'm glad you changed it out and enjoying it.

I will make that happen!!! I promise!

I love roaring patina black - it was my first FWP ink and is not dry at all like some of the other inks. I wonder if their shimmer inks are more lubricated than their standard inks

With the first ink I had in it I was nervous to consider a shimmer ink but the ink in it now helps me to appreciate how awesome it would do!

I really enjoy it!! I’m glad you did too! I thought of the sample of Oxblood you shared with me as I was searching Vampire Pigeon and realizing that also would have been very appropriate this month

It’s beautiful! Email me and I’ll send you a sample!

It is one of my favorites and the shimmer stays in the feed a bit and comes out with the use of other inks and I’m not mad about it!

The Carene is stunning and the nib is very smooth on the page! Fountain pen day is coming up - look for some deals!

Thank you so much! We all appreciate it!

Me! I did!
