With the kaweco skipping, try squeezing the cartridge when you put it in. Just squeeze enough for the ink to flow. Hope that helps. I own a kaweco fountain pen myself.
I was so excited to see the white hello kitty uni style 5 pen! My husband brought me back that same pen last month from Japan!! I love it and I'm even more excited to know you have refills for it! Can't wait to order some of the other uni style pens that you showed!
Yes, please carry the little planner stamps. Also would love to have quality ballpoint pens with quality scented ink. I had a really nice one with patchouli scented ink but it's been discontinued. So pleasant to write with!
WHAT?!?! You're opening an actual brick and mortar store?! Now I must find out how far away Fairfield is, because I live in Omaha, Nebraska. Gahhh! Congratulations, Kimberly! I can't wait to come see your shop!
Got my unistyle shells yesterday as soon as I saw them. Little Twin Stars has been my sister's favorite since like preschool haha. I intend to give her one...but it may not make it to her haha. Yes. Yes. YES to the mini planner stamps and the mini stamp pads. I already have tons of them from when I lived in Japan but every time I visit I look for them. If you sold them, I could save the plane ticket and get more from you! Also, I wish your retail store was already open. My bf and I drove through Iowa from Vegas to get to Ann Arbor, MI where we are attending a summer school program. I even told him that TPS was in Iowa when we drove through haha.
I would love the schedule stamps, and the small stamp pads. Would definitely buy those! Also love some of the ini-style fit multi pens. Going to have the get a few:). We had that book for our twin boys when they were babies (13 years ago). And yes, baby wipes are the easiest way to clean off my stamps. Can't wait for parts 2-4. Will there be anymore multi pen barrels? I kinda don't want to place an order until I see everything you have😊.
My order arrived today, and was happy about the items and how fast it shipped. Also, thought I should be fine from having to buy any new pens for a while, then I saw the new sanrio pens and placed another order... Well now, you might as well get those stamps too, because I'm sure I'll order them as well :)
to get it advertised u should try going to local japanese grocery/anime stores and leave business cards if they will take them, that's what my favorite store here in atlanta did :D
Do you think you could stock some dip pen supplies? Perhaps like a starter kit that are aimed towards mangaka? I love the effect of flex nibs, but fountain pens get expensive so I would love dip pens.
I just realized this is part 1 of 4!!!! Omg I can't (well my wallet can't handle 4!!). I already placed order I LOVE the little twin stars.. They were my favorite too :) so of course I went on to order, then you said about ordering the unicorn because not restocking. Well of course that got added to my cart!! This channel is so enabling!!! Just so you know I'm sure you have heard of but if you do a search on RUclips "orla kiely" planner bag or pouch. They have a couple cute bags perfect for planning and pens!! Also, yes please include stamps in your shop!! I have some really cute ones from Japan and they are actually 2nd set - my daughter ruined first :( last question for the Uni style pens are there any other refills you can use? Last thing for cleaning stamps - yes baby wipes work. Shammy's also work great. Lawn fawn is making a new one, or you can make your own. I use spray stamp cleaner with a double sided stamp scrubber. Mine is from Stampin up!
Oooo super excited you guys are going to have a storefront! How close will the store be from Iowa City? I may be going to grad school there and would love to come visit when the shop is up! : )
I'm binge watching all your videos. I'm a medical student obsessed with your site and your videos, (and of course, stationery in general.) I watch your videos on study breaks as a nice and informative way to relax, (and to decide what to add to my Christmas list ;) ) BUT the main point of my comment was: I'M FROM THE MIDWEST. My parents live near Iowa and I live in Missouri! WHERE ARE YOUR AMAZING LOCATIONS??
I have been looking for this for so long ever since i saw it used in a documentary about japanese stationery. If you ever decide to sell it can you let me know?
Kimberly I am not a pen expert but these are some tips I was given. If You have not given Your pen a good water flushing go ahead and do that. Then try Your pen again but this time bare down just a little but not to hard. Then wile You bare down just a bit make 3 bold small lines and do this about 2-3 times . Then try and right with Your pen as usual. Using a ink converter for me helped out a lot and bottled ink and that should fix Your Kawaco pens skipping problem . I really wish I did not have to say this but You must do this at Your own risk. I just wanted to help.
I absolutely love your videos but sometimes you come across as really rude / arrogant. I'm sure you're not but you might want to watch that. Otherwise, amazing products and reviews.
I always get excited to see that you've posted another video! Those mini scheduler stamps look great! I'd love to see them in your store.
Yep, the ink cartridges are called Standard International Short cartridges.
They are standard international short cartridges. Also check out the online forums about fine tuning your fountain pens.

Love the Kodomo No Kao schedule stamps, place try to carry them in your shop. I totally want to buy them.

I have a couple of those tiny schedule stamps and I love them yes please stock those!!!
I would love to see you carry planner stamps or other cute things of the like.
I find that it helps to shake the fountain pen a little bit before using it. It'll help to get the ink flowing, at least it does help me.
Yes, please carry the little planner stamps. Also would love to have quality ballpoint pens with quality scented ink. I had a really nice one with patchouli scented ink but it's been discontinued. So pleasant to write with!
Love this video! Now I have to put in an order. And, yes you should carry the stamps and stamp pads. Would love to order those! Great items!
the glass bell is super pretty
The schedule stamps seem like they would be excellent to have
WHAT?!?! You're opening an actual brick and mortar store?!

yes wonderful products! please add that bag immediately! loved it.
I would love for you to carry the stamps and inks!!!
Artnic are the same as VersaColor Inks here in the US. :)

The multi pens remind me of the Precious Moments brand.

Oh and please stock the Tombow Sand Eraser if you haven't yet!
I would recommend checking the GouletPens RUclips channel for fountain pen cleaning tips.
And yep, you're right on the piston converter.
Is 2-4 up??? Like I need it :)

Yes!!! Carry the stamps!!!!!! Please!!!!
what is the ball point demonstrator pen called? Where can i purchase it online?
This is made especially for Kakimori by Inkstand and I do not think it is purchasable online.
I have been looking for this for so long ever since i saw it used in a documentary about japanese stationery. If you ever decide to sell it can you let me know?
Oh my !! The unicorn! Dying!!!
Logged into RUclips, saw this new video up. Yeeeeeesssss :) 👌
video does not play
