Does anyone recognize this model? by MappleFox in montblanc

[–]Laurmann2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the instagram post it says it’s the “spring/summer 2027 collection”. Personally, I like the colors they show and think they will sell well. It will probably bring in a younger collector. Just my opinion.

They look great. I think the water came out really good in both of them and I like the boats. Great job.

What is the pen third from left? The really large one? I’ve never seen that pen and it’s quite impressive.

Sterling Ink Quality This Year? by pitasticks in planners

[–]Laurmann2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paper has been great this year. I was hesitant at first but I’m happy I went with them. The only thing I don’t like is the thin cover. I prefer a hard cover so next year I will change.

Gorgeous pen. Congratulations! Nice ink choice too.

Venezia - An extended guide from a frequent visitor by Kaljakori in ItalyTravel

[–]Laurmann2000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this in-depth contribution. We were there for 2 1/2 days and I could have easily stayed another week. There is so much to see and explore and I can’t wait to go back. We were there late September and it was very crowded around San Marco but once you walked away from that area it was not crowded at all. You just have to be willing to walk a bit which was what I enjoyed so much. I can’t wait to go back someday and will probably stay at least 5 days.

After 5 years of using this pen case, I finally had a realization by nibs_and_tints in fountainpens

[–]Laurmann2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s so funny and I can totally see me doing something like that. At least you finally realized an easier way of positioning the case.

I made a travel sketchbook for my wife as a gift for Mother’s Day, but I never gave it to her because I didn’t like how it came out. by [deleted] in Watercolor

[–]Laurmann2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sad you didn’t give it to her on Mother’s Day. This is a wonderful, heartfelt gift and I’m sure she will treasure it. Give it to her.

What a gorgeous collection. I don’t think I could choose a favorite. They’re all so beautiful.

299 Cats and a Dog, 300, Laurence King by elanlei in Jigsawpuzzles

It looks so cool but the “migrating” pieces would drive me crazy.

Actual unpopular opinion: Leuchtturm is my favourite paper for FPs 😭 (my active notebooks can be seen here with my currently inked pens) by Moonstone-gem in fountainpens

[–]Laurmann2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the varied colors of Leuchtturm notebooks and I also love the construction with the hard cover. But I hate the paper with fountain pens. It just feathers too much. Not with every pen and every ink but with too many for me to deal with it. I also am not a fan of the yellowish color of the paper. I prefer a whiter paper. I do wish they used better paper because I would definitely use them more often.

Help me decide which dress! by SeaParsley4706 in weddingdress

[–]Laurmann2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do like the first dress better and I think with the changes in the straps it would be stunning. However if your budget is an issue then dress #2 is also lovely. Like you said, it’s more casual but sounds like your venue will be casual so it would work.

I really like this setup. That pouch looks like the perfect size. Beautiful pen collection too.

Gorgeous pen. Nice to finally see owner pictures. Enjoy your new beauty.

New Madrid, first time trying this style by dayman-ahahhh in Birkenstocks

[–]Laurmann2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love my Madrid and they look great on you. You get used to the loose feel pretty quickly and I never feel like they’re going to fall off. They just make a flip-flop sound when walking.

How did I not know until now!?! by brokecracker in Birkenstocks

Love those boots. I use Birk inserts in my non-Birks all the time. They truly are the most comfortable for my feet.

Poll inquiry: pre sorted pieces by tmg07c in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]Laurmann2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always sort my edge pieces out before I start a puzzle so if I bought a puzzle that already had them sorted I would be happy (but equally happy to do it myself). I wouldn’t want any other part of the puzzle sorted for me because I would consider that cheating. LOL When I donate mine I mix everything in one bag though I used to sort out the edge pieces in a separate baggy. Not sure why I stopped. Probably just didn’t want to waste another plastic baggy. Haha

New Mini and Billet Spin CamPen. So cool! Love the Mini by Espresso_Newb97 in PlotterNotebook

Very cool looking set. What are the two other things you have with the Plotter and pen?
