You could always get the Hobonichi A6 or A5 notebook. I have one of each - both with graph paper. They do come in blank - undated, but dates can be written in. Perfect for splats! Also, the cover on cover and Hobonichi covers do fit the notebooks. Just saying 😇😜 Did not know about the TWSBI but can't aford the prices FEDEX is currently charging to ship to Canada. Therefore, I shall have to live vicariously 😅
Ugh, seems like shipping to Canada has been more expensive than it needs to be. 😞 Funnily enough... I have a Hobonichi notebook in A6 so maybe I should just use it. 😅🤣
This seems like a fun thing to do with ink loving friends. Preferably friends who like different colors than you. Then at the end of the month you get to divide up the inks amongst the group.
@MariaRosseau I've started watching them. There are three of us at work who enjoy pens and ink. It would be a fun way to brighten up January. (A dismal month in the midwest.)
YES!!! Another daily dose of Maria! Was telling pen bestie at work about how much I enjoy your videos. Raw, uncut, with a touch of sass! She missed yesterday's, but I'm *SURE* she's on her way to catching up ELSE when I get back to office I'll have to bug her. AGREE, more count-down calendars please! Perhaps with chocolates. Wait, I think that's been done...beer...done...wine...done...need be more creative...HOW ABOUT different pen nibs? Day 1: EF nib. Day 2: F nib. Then medium, broad, double broad, 1.1 stub. 1.5 stub, 2.0 stub, cursive italic, architect, Fude, Naginata (same as architect?), flex, left-hand versions, steel, gold, titanium, and ??? They could be for a common, low-cost, but still okay-ish pen so you change them out easy-like. Like maybe a Jinhao 82, or Platinum Preppy (but those are proprietary to Platinum), or other possible fountain pen??? BUT, if to make it super-awesome (and super bougie / pricey) maybe the ultimate nib ends up being a Monoc? SKID ALERT - Did you ever put your Monoc on anything? CURIOUS!!! I'm so wanting one, maybe as a gift from me to me for XMAS? hmmmmmmmmm.... HEY MARIA - YOU'RE DOING GREAT!!! 🥰🥰🥰 New TWSBI? Amazonite? Looks nice, but not for me.
I love your comments and I'm so glad you're here. 🥰 I put my monoc on one of my pens... Uh, maybe the one I got this year from Carolina Pen Company. Your idea of a nib countdown calendar is pretty great. The whiskey one I got for my partner gives you tasting glasses for day 1. Maybe the nib one could start with a simple holder. 🤔
Thank you Thank you Maria❣ Three minutes in and you have made my day💜🙏
Aww, thank you for being here. 🥰🥰
Nice blue! I agree with you that one can’t have too many blue inks 😊. See you tomorrow!
Blue is so lovely. 🥰

Oh yes that's a great idea! 🥰
Pen bestie at work suggested we all chip in on one then do an "NFL DRAFT" type pick where we go around picking our most favs.
@@kd5byb ohh! That sounds fun!
@@kd5byb I LOVE THIS!
You know you can get these for a pretty good discount after the holidays, usually.

Had no idea about the marbled TWSBI until this video 💀 Too close to Glow Green, but I'll have no defense against a black/white swirl
I don't have glow green so I have no excuse. 🤣

Hi Maria, I’m drawn to blues and like them and then don’t use them. This could be such a candidate ☺️ Like your glass dip pen!
I love blues and use them almost too much. 🤣🥰
@ opposite of me!! Love but don't ink them up- whyyyyyy 😄
Ah blue I am happy.
And a pretty one, too. 💙🥰
