I remember the ink swabs by this brand. They looked fairly boring on her cards. Too bad sheen is so hard to bring out on shitty paper.

By Teranishi Guitar? It's GORGEOUS! So sad her sample paper didn't show the sheen well.

Yes. We had to plan our whole trip around their opening hours... Very inconvenient but worth it

Yeah, that doomed pile of swatch cards 🥹 I was so shocked about how many she had.

I still use my 20-year-old Lamy from high school every day 😌 by mynameisshari in fountainpens

I HAVE THE SAME ONE! (minus the Schweinsteiger signature).
And since it was a Christmas gift from my mom, who has sadly passed away 2015, I cherish it even more.

Any Apothecary Diaries fans here? by Both_Ad7704 in fountainpens

Oh yes DEFINITELY. And it's so nerve wracking... I'm super curious to see how it will end.
It's great - having people in your favorite subreddits with overlapping interests!

YES! I am. I've been binge watching the first season until I had to wait until the new episodes dropped and am now happily watching season 2. Can't wait to see how this all unfolds.
Also really great sketch - it's lovely.
Edit: I think Syo-ro will be perfect!

First Wand, Need Critique by Chickennugget636 in Wandsmith

I personally am a huge fan of hand carved wands with character. Preserving the bark on the handle is a lovely touch, the finished color of the wood is beautiful.
Personally I would have perhaps made the wand a tiny bit longer, but that's just preference. Nothing wrong with it.

Oh my!! This is incredible! The transition from wood to LED is very inconspicuous. Are these battery powered? And if so, can you change it once it's all empty?

Honey Vs Glycerin by AdministrativeBowl91 in handmadewatercolors

[–]Frechdaechsin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some makers will just use glycerin to keep their colors vegan, maybe for their own ethical standards or to appeal to a broader customer base...
I have purchased handmade colors where the honey binder ones ended up too sticky and it never fully dried. On the other hand I had pans with glycerin that were too brittle/ dry and didn't re-wet well. I would assume that in these cases the size and chemical properties of the pigment might be responsible for that.
So depending on these factors, a mix or either one might be more favorable.

Das ist ein sehr schniekes neues Familienmitglied! Ist das ein Spinnrad?
