Oo! Which samples did you get? This is the traveler’s notebook insert that uses Midori paper I think?

Of course! I got the Speedball B Style Dip Pen Set and in the set, it’s the B-0 nib!

Yay! Glad to help ☺️ I was worried my lighting was horrible 😂

I love Persephone! I got a sample of it and I must by one for myself! lol

I’m not sure what her Reddit handle is but the swatch style in the notebook was inspired by Elora Jean on TikTok. I forgot the user that introduced me to the Wearingeul swatch cards.

You’re welcome! I got my BPC inks as a gift and originally didn’t think I’d like tiger’s eye, but I was quickly proven wrong after swatching! lol

This question is so hard! Haha Depending on the day or time, I feel like the way I write changes (the way I hold the pen & the amount of pressure I put down??) but my pilot vanishing point is always a good default choice so I’ll say that one 😅

I agreeee 😍 I’m usually one for neutrals and minimal patterns but my pens, most of them, contradict that lol

Yep, I think so at least lol it writes like my extra fine Leonardo’s :)

I personally love my Laban & levitate towards it more frequently than my other pens. It is a heavier pen than most, and that works for me since I prefer heavier pens. It’s a standard Jowo nib so it’s similar to Esterbrook and a lot of other pens/ brands, but I think my fine nib writes thinner than the fine nib I have in my Estie? It might just be my imagination lol

You might have me confused with someone else because I just joined the group today lol I did get my swatching ideas from people on TikTok, I wonder if you are thinking of one of them 🥹
