Magician with Paper Props • Traveler’s Notebook
Happy one year #travelersnotebook anniversary to me! Here’s to 21 inserts and counting!! I did celebrate a few days early, as I was in Portland and went to the partner store, Oblation Papers… stocked up on a bunch of new inserts. My life has been so enriched by starting this journey a year ago today! And special thanks to my #fountainpens for making it all happen 😉
I’m sure a lot of us #fountainpens users have OPINIONS about ballpoints. I certainly do! But as someone who is also a cursive writer, I found this article in the Atlantic fascinating. Thought you would, too. Do you have any use for ballpoints? https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2015/08/ballpoint-pens-object-lesson-history-handwriting/402205/
How the Ballpoint Pen Killed Cursive

Thicker ink meant it didn't smudge as easily as its predecessor, the fountain pen—but it also made writing by hand more physically demanding.

Has anyone experimented with Onion Skin paper for #fountainpens? I had a few sheets of 8.5x11” some time ago and really liked it. Tempted to get it as a #travelersnotbook insert. Any thoughts?
So I have a question for you… Would you rather have an infinite number of #fountainpens but only one #ink OR an infinite number of inks but only one #fountainpen?? For me, it’d be infinite pens with Diamine Onyx Black. Either way, lmk what your one item would be!
Appreciation post for my #travelersnotebook charm! It was a gift from a friend who works at a #stationery store here in Los Angeles. He recently returned from Japan where he went to the TN factory! This is a Starbucks Reserve charm from the cafe in the building. All of my #fountainpens have gold accents, so it compliments whichever #fountainpen I’m using. It’s so special!
Post inspired by a question from @faizalr about #fountainpen #ink #fountainpenink When I travel I use the Namiki black refills that I keep neatly in this little coin purse. I actually exclusively use black ink! And seeing as I’m using the Pilot e95s #fountainpens the Con-40 will only get me through six pages of my #travelersnotebook which is hardly a day for me! So I syringe fill an empty Namiki cartridge with Diamine Onyx Black when I’m at home
#introduction Hey! I’m Krystyn, and I’m never without my #travelersnotebook and #fountainpen. While I have several #fountainpens, all I’m using right now is my Pilot e95s. Should I do another post outlining how I use my notebook?

Quick clip of finding the right cardstock, fusing two sheets together that then will be cut down to business card size for a magic trick. Still not entirely happy with the final result, but we’re in the right direction. #stationery #stationeryFTW
