    Jacaranda is sub-tropical tree known for its beautiful purple flowers!
    Rainbow's End and Bah Humbug are incredible! Thanks so much for this preview, Tom.

    I'm always on the lookout for a nice purple. So, Rainbows End & Raise a Glass look like my cup of tea. And maybe Jacaranda, too.
    This was fun to watch while I crocheted Christmas gifts.

    I'd just like to point out how pleasant and peaceful the experience of unraveling this year's inkvent calendar colors in this video with Tom was. Thank you for this and I'm definitely looking forward to more ink-related videos from Goldspot Pens! :)

    I had a jacaranda in the yard growing up, it's got to be my favourite colour, they did a good job with that one.

    So many beautiful inks. 🤩 for me i like most Day 8 Jacaranda, Day 2 Cashmere Rose and Day 3 Early Dusk. 🎆

  • @NotesFromPastAmy
    @NotesFromPastAmy Год назад +10

    Cashmere rose, jacaranda, glacier, rainbows end, cinnabun, sugar snap, and raise a glass are all beautiful! I love that people are spoiling the calendar this year. It is fun to extend the excitement. 😊

      Exactly! Anticipation lasts longer (and therefore is better imho) than surprise! 🙂

    Astral just took my breath away! It’s a beautiful black but that shimmer and sheen really adds so much dimension to it! Astral is definitely my favourite, followed by Nightfall and then Masquerade ❤❤

  • @kristiw.1823
    @kristiw.1823 Год назад +1

    I really appreciated that you took the time to talk through which inks were drier... it makes me curious to find out why lower saturation colors have the issue. Definitely looking forward to quite a few of these inks... Cashmere Rose reminds me of a David Austin rose color and Sugar Snap Pea, Bah Humbug and Lavender Frost look to be fast favorites. Thanks for showing them off!

  • @Poisonmiezi
    @Poisonmiezi Год назад +6

    It's really hard to choose only one favorite, but I think I like Masquerade the most. Followed up by Lavender Frost and Bah Humbug :D
    Thanks for swatching them, must have been a lot of work!

  • @skylachamard7444
    @skylachamard7444 Год назад

    Thank you so much for showing what is in the Inkvent calendar. It was very helpful since I'm new to fountain pens. I like greens, so Velvet, Emerald and Merry and bright were my favorites, though I liked brown ie walnut.
    I'm so glad I found your channel and shop. I'm looking forward to learning more.

  • @pay1370
    @pay1370 Год назад +2

    Weeping willow has my attention, can't wait to try it out! I really liked nightshade from the previous calendar since it has a similar colour shift, i just love watching the colour change as it dries and i'm hoping weeping willow will have a similar interesting gimmick haha.

  • @jerrycarter8210
    @jerrycarter8210 Год назад +1

    Bah Humbug!! I love the name and the color. Of all the colors and names, it is the one ink that fits perfectly with my Christmas tradition. Every year around this time, in any version, I watch Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol. Bah Humbug indeed!

  • @NathalieGravel-l8m
    @NathalieGravel-l8m Год назад +1

    This is like Christmas morning opening my ink set with Tom! Not that I need more inks, but can’t resist checking out ahead of Christmas what Diamine concocted this year. Thank you for this great video. Also great job on your Holidays catalog! I can’t even discard these year over year, as I still have the 2022 copy on my desk! You are keeping us dreaming about fountain pens and inks all year with these wonderful catalogs 🥰

  • @mamahnita

    Thank you for reminding me that you can eyedropper a preppy .
    Good job on the swatching Tom.

    Buck's Fizz is a cocktail made up of Prosecco (or Champagne) and Orange Juice. Also the name of the British band that won the Eurovision Dong Contest in 1981.
    As for the inks that caught my liking - Sugar Snap, Astral, Bah Humbug and Moonbeam.

  • @iluvyoumetal
    @iluvyoumetal Год назад +2

    The ink that immediately captured my attention was Bah Humbug, it’s has a lovely depth of color. I think a good idea for next year’s inkvent would be to introduce more literary and historical references for the ink names, and perhaps a few words regarding their choices, much like the inflight does. Thank you very much for sharing!

  • @alyshafaulknor
    @alyshafaulknor Год назад +1

    Did anyone win this! I really like those colors. My fave is the emerald one. I’m new to fountain pens and I use the preppy pens in extra fine. Just learned how to use them without a cartridge! I tend to use standard inks but those shimmers and chameleon inks are so pretty. I suppose it’s time to try different nibs to use these inks. Does anyone recommend any spiral bound notebooks for fountain pens? What do people do for ink storage for a haul like this advent calendar?

  • @ZolaneG
    @ZolaneG Год назад

    So many beautiful colors but I LOVE Bah Humbug! Thank you very much for the fun preview🎄🎄🎄

  • @daisybarcia7856
    @daisybarcia7856 Год назад

    Love Fireside Snug! Thanks for the sneak peak!!

  • @finnegan517
    @finnegan517 Год назад

    The journey this year’s INKvent takes us on I really find fun and dynamic. That Bah Humbug is the perfect shade of red for a vintage style holiday…as soon as they release a big bottle for Astral it will be perfect for the Estie Raven… and Raise A Glass is going to be fun to welcome a new year and new beginnings and wish everyone well. (I also suspect it will have beautiful chromatographic properties!)
    Side note for Weeping Willow - not often depicted in holiday scenery because of its bare branches. However, because its leaves are often seen as the first to re-emerge after winter the weeping willow can represent hope and strength in adversity, healing & growth - kinda perfect for an Advent calendar.
    Thank you for a well presented and organized Inkvent spoiler!

  • @youbmine
    @youbmine Год назад

  • @elainefm4771
    @elainefm4771 Год назад

    Beautiful colors this year. My favorites are lavender frost, rainbow's end, and fireside snug. I really want to like moon beam but I think I prefer moon dust from their other line of inks. Thank you for the video and doing such a generous giveaway!

  • @FavoritesPersonal
    @FavoritesPersonal Год назад

    I’d love to try a scented ink like Sweet Dreams. The bright pink is eye catching. Thank you for the fun preview!

  • @INCWorks
    @INCWorks Год назад

    What fun! I really wish I'd put on my winter PJs and fixed a mug of hot cocoa for this. A very exciting assortment, here, and there are several that ring my jingle bells, for sure. But only one has me dreaming of snuggling under a blanket and watching the snow come down. And that's my favorite, FIRESIDE SNUG.
    Thanks for the early peek at this set, Tom!

    @ash16lily23 Год назад

    Thanks soooo much for doing this video!!! I've been debating (stressing out) on whether or not to get this Inkvent calendar!! There were a lot of gorgeous colors, but I think my favorites were Nightfall, Velvet Emerald, Glacier, Astral, Sugar Snap, and Raise a Glass! Thanks again!

  • @chiphill156
    @chiphill156 Год назад

    @notailsclub Год назад

    Love Bah Humbug, Raise a Glass, Astral and Velvet Emerald. There were several others that would love to try a sample of.

    Closely followed by Nightfall, Thank you Tom for the sneak peak, going through the colors with such great descriptions, I could actually visulize the fire with your Fireside Snug description.! So many great colors to choose from, hard to choose just 1 or 2.!! Cashmere Rose, Masquerade, Bah Humbug, so many. Fun giveaway…ink, pens and cases, oh my.!!!

    Thanks for another great Inkvent preview & swatching 🙂 I really love Bah Hum Bug & Blizzard but my eye is also drawn to Early Dusk since blues always been my fave color.

  • @prophetessoftroy
    @prophetessoftroy Год назад +3

    This is the first year I can genuinely say I'd be really excited to get the advent calendar. Bah Humbug is a standout for me, as are Sugar Snap; Weeping Willow; Lavender Frost; Nightfall; and Velvet Emerald. I'm also very intrigued by the new 'star bright' distinction. Would be interesting to see that same type of finish applied to some of their other colors!

    • @Jay_Bird
      @Jay_Bird Год назад +1

      Yes, I wish Diamine would've released more information re: what this new "Star Bright" category is, exactly.

  • @debramaertens893
    @debramaertens893 Год назад

    Bah Humbug was my favorite, a gorgeous rich color! I can’t resist a really good dark purple so Raise A Glass is right up there for me.

  • @tinacampbell2610
    @tinacampbell2610 Год назад

    I think is a nice color set. I love Raise a Glass, Lavender Frost, Astral, Nightfall, and Cashmere Rose inks... Thanks for showing us the colors... I may have to pick this set up if I'm not lucky...

  • @bethg7026

  • @ChloeMarquette
    @ChloeMarquette Год назад

    Astral and Nightfall are stunning. I could use the inks every day in my memory-keeping journal. Bah Humbug is great for my holiday cards this year. Sweet Dreams is plain old fun!
    Thank you for the great video.

  • @h4r4s4r4

  • @jannahlyon
    @jannahlyon Год назад

    Wow, what an amazing giveaway!!! Thanks for sharing all the swatches, I love a lot of these this year! I think I would have to go with Day 4 Masquerade as my number one. I would also choose Weeping Willow and Moon Beam as my close #2's!

  • @pennyc6316
    @pennyc6316 Год назад

    I’m impressed Tom that managed to keep your hands ink free through 24 different bottles. I can’t seem to do that when inking up only one pen😝 I think I can narrow my favourite down to 2 inks without seeing them in person. Walnut and Raise a glass were both such rich colours that stood out to me right away. And I just started using brown ink recently. Thanks for the video!

  • @bryanmarsh9886
    @bryanmarsh9886 Год назад

    I am so glad you took all the time to do this. I always like a good green, so Sugar Snap looks like it'd be a favorite, but there are several that look amazing.

  • @Tooohardtofindone
    @Tooohardtofindone Год назад

    Fireside snug looks amazing. So do many of them this year, good variety of colours.

  • @hyejinni3

    I love shimmer so seeing Glacier having over the top shimmer has me super excited! Also Merry & Bright and Tinsel get me excited for the holiday season 🎄

  • @cmac1100
    @cmac1100 Год назад +1

    Whoa! A 50+minute-r!
    My favorite was glacier. Although im not super partial to shimmer inks, the eyedropper pen mode is a good idea for these kinds of inks (a pen mode i havent tried, but it makes sense with hard to clean inks such as shimmer) another great one, Tom! Cant believe youve had time to make the video with all of the magazine work youve been doing lol

  • @serena6777
    @serena6777 Год назад

    Rainbows End! I am always attracted to these kind of blueish purplely shades and it is also a chameleon so even more going on in the ink. Sugar Snap is also a lovely color as I love how it is a muted green.

  • @Abigail_Estrada

  • @naomihaze
    @naomihaze Год назад

    My favorite color from 2023 is Astral. The iridescent darkness evokes the mystery and beauty of the depths of space.
    I also like how well the darker shading on Jacaranda matches the color of the fallen lavender blossoms crushed underfoot on the sidewalk.
    How does one fix a burping Preppy that has been eye-droppered?
    Thanks for taking the time to swatch all those inks!

    @spiderwrangler4457 Год назад +1

    I think that Nightfall and Bah Humbug are the two that speak the most to me! I think it's great that they've started doing this, though I wish we didn't have to wait until summer for them to bring them back in larger volumes!

    @yvettesands1780 Год назад

    Thanks for this preview Tom. I love your videos and was especially excited about seeing what was inside that calendar. It surely puts me in the mood to kick off the holiday gifting season, and I am now on the hunt for similar colors since those aren’t out yet in 30ml sizes 😅! I love the fortune gold, night fall, astral and I’m definitely ready to raise a glass ! We are already on the goldspot site searching for similar ones and pens to match !

  • @sistergoldenhair0727

  • @kamakazee2bird
    @kamakazee2bird Год назад

    I am with you on your favorite with Fireside Snug. it is Very reminiscent of Noodler's Apache Sunset but a bit darker I think. I assume it would shade well with broader nibs.

    This was so much fun to watch! I love love Cashmere Rose! Close seconds are Sugar Snap and Astral. Would love to try these! Yes, all very different. I like bright and deep colors. There were more shimmer and chameleon inks I liked in last year's inkvent calendar. But I can see a lot of colors I'd give a try here. Thanks for this spoiler! 😜😁 🤩

  • @annturner9096
    @annturner9096 Год назад

  • @onigarasu
    @onigarasu Год назад +1

    Thank you for this film. I love inkvent spoilers! My personal favourite is Bah Humbug. It's a beautiful, non-standard color. It may not have the Christmas spirit, but it is magnetic in its own right.
    I really like Early Dusk. It looks like shadows in the snow when you return from a long winter walk under the last light of the setting sun.

    • @quince7

  • @miguelalbertoespinoza2726
    @miguelalbertoespinoza2726 11 месяцев назад

    My favorite inks in this review were Early Dusk, Cinnabun, and Fireside Snug. The others look good in the swatches, but I think there was too much shimmer in this year's InkVent Calendar. I prefer using ink to write with and not having to worry about the feed getting clogged. Thanks for your excellent review!

  • @fospino68
    @fospino68 Год назад

    @TimeWithSussane Год назад

  • @akrinapinto
    @akrinapinto Год назад

    I like so many! But my favourite definitely has to be Raise a Glass. Deep purples are my go to for everyday writing. Dark enough to still feel “office appropriate”, but the purple makes it a little more fun ❤

  • @CatherineC.2123
    @CatherineC.2123 Год назад +1

    Purple lover here. I hope Diamine adds Rainbow's End and Raise a Glass to their regular lineup. I will surely purchase both.

  • @johnhenderson1760
    @johnhenderson1760 Год назад

    My 12-year-old daughter and i both went, "Ooo. Wow!" at the sight of the Bah Humbug, but for more business use, I like the olive drab Moonbeam - dark and serious with just a dash of individuality.

  • @oldladywcamera

    Agree with you about Bah Humbug. Also like Walnut and Raise a Glass. Thanks, Tom. That was a long haul, no pun intended.

  • @normanangeles1429
    @normanangeles1429 Год назад

    They're all beautiful inks! But I have to choose Velvet Emerald as my favorite! Astral and Raise a Glass are my runners-up! Thank you for showing us the inks!

  • @paulmchugh1430
    @paulmchugh1430 Год назад +1

    Jacaranda is a shrub and tall trees (up to 95 ft. tall) with blue to purple flowers. It grows in sub-tropical to tropical areas.
    Love the Nightfall and Bah Humbug colors.
    Rainbow's End I think refers to the end of the color spectrum.
    Astral is really nice. It really does highlight the "chameleon" effect.
    Sugar snap perhaps reminds me of sugar snap peas.
    I really like Raise the Glass. I am partial to dark, saturated inks.

  • @perfumesylapiceras
    @perfumesylapiceras Год назад

    I loved Jacaranda, which is a tree. When it blooms, the flowers are very much like the color as shown in the video. They bloom around this time of year in my home city.❤
