Notebook Review: Dominant Industry Ink Archiving Book: Log of Elixir/Atlantis Edition

Initially, I was just going to post and review about the new(er) Dominant Industry Ink Archiving Book: The Log of Elixir ($31). Jesi posted a review awhile ago about the Log of Atlantis ($28) awhile back so I thought I didn't need to write about it.

New FPD: Sailor x Mizutama Profit Junior Limited Edition Fountain Pen

I had a birthday a few weeks back, and a bestie who is into pens with me sent me a fun gift, a Sailor x Mizutama Profit Junior Limited Edition Fountain Pen.

Ink Review: Dominant Industry Little Craft Fest 2025 Exclusives

While I was in Houston, I grabbed the Little Craft Fest exclusive ink colors from Dominant Industry. The irony was that the first day of the show, they did not have swatches of the colors to show so I went back the second day and someone had swatched them. One of the bottles in clearly labelled on the box and the bottle as A Day in Arpril (yes, there's a typo).

Ink Review: Diamine x Independence Trust a Bivalve + Shimmering Kelp

A few weeks ago I was super excited to order Inkdependence's newest collaborative inks. Mike teamed up with Diamine to create Never Trust a Bivalve and Trust a Bivalve ($8-14 for 30mL) featuring wonderful label art from Tom of Sugarturtle Studio. These two new inks are lots of fun, but I was a good girl and just got myself a single bottle.
