Kinokuniya Haul | Platinum Chai Tea & Ink Swatching

✨ Hey Pen Friends, in today’s video I share an unexpected mini haul from Kinokuniya. I nabbed a #newpen from Platinum and six new inks including Sailor, Kuratake, and Tool Bar.
Grab some 🫖, ☕️ or 🧋 and let’s get into it!

I love that you swatch with hearts. It’s so joyful to see every new ink start with love.

what lovely colours! thanks so much for sharing. :) also the sailor yurameku inks (the gokoro line) change colour depending on paper if i remember correctly!

[@Gildedlaceandpaper]

Thanks for watching! 😊 I do think those inks change color on different papers. I should go back and explore those. I think I only got to try one or two.

Also, I like the selections. ❤. The Lennon Tool Bar looks very interesting and I am a brown ink girlie, so the one you hate is one of my faves. 😂😂. Get some rest momma! Congrats on the new baby and the new pen!

Thank you!!! 😊

I like the acrylic pen holder and white pen sleeve. Where did you get those please? Lovely video :)

[@Gildedlaceandpaper]

Thank you! The acrylic pen holder is from Amazon. LONGWIN Office Supplies Crystal... www.amazon.com/dp/B01B7BP5F0?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
And the pen sleeve is from KR PLANS on Etsy!

Would doing your swatches on the opposite side of the page help? On the right side edge instead of left? I’m not left handed, but I thought, maybe that would be easier to avoid touching that way?

[@Gildedlaceandpaper]

Yes, I’ve tried that before and it does help but this time I forgot. 🫠

I AM a lefty and I came here to say just this… put your ink swatches on the right side. Looks like you already know this though!

[@Calcprof]

Leftie here, but underwriter, so no issues with smearing. What issues have you had with Sailor nibs?

[@Gildedlaceandpaper]

Almost every single one I’ve received has required tuning by a nib meister because it had a scratchy point. And I don’t mean feedback. I know the difference. But scratching and some were even so bad they were catching on my smooth papers and even making tiny tears. 😭

Hi ! Where's the nib holder from please ?

[@Gildedlaceandpaper]

Hi! It’s from River City pen co
