I have just impulse-purchased a hongdian m2 mini fountain pen.

We should never have put a #stationery channel on the Irish Tech Community Slack.

h/t to @johnke for the nudge 💸

Bread crumbs were the standard pencil eraser until 1770, when a chemist grabbed a rubber ball by accident and noticed it worked better. Called the material rubber for exactly that reason. Nobody's bothered renaming it since. #history #stationery #trivia

Secured my 2027 planner from Sterling Ink instead of buying through Hobonichi. I'm so excited for the horizontal Hobonichi Weeks layout but in an A5 size. #stationery

I usually use the uniball Jetstream 3 in 1 but I tried the uniball one (uniball one P) today and it's good. Like damn. So smooth.

I am used to a bit of feedback since I use a fine tio size but this was just smooth AF.

I think I would want a uniball one F or the original uniball one though. I will enjoy it though, it's very cute. :blobfoxwoah:

Got curious why pencils are hexagonal. Round ones roll straight off a sloped drafting table — so sometime in the 1850s pencil makers cut hex sides into them. Carpenters solved the same problem earlier by making their pencils oval, so they wouldn't roll off a roof either. #history #design #stationery

Hey #stationery lovers,

who are making nice lined A5-ish notebooks these days? Or where should I look for a range?

I generally like Moleskines - the paper quality, the spacing of the ruled lines, and the sturdy-but-not-too-hard covers - but I fancy a change.

お久しぶりです！以前、問題の見つかった材料を新しいものに替えて、新しいアプローチでデザインを見直しました。いかがでしょうか？大きさはA6、厚さ16mmで384ページあります。
背の補強材からしおり紐がチラッとのぞく仕様です。天小口（上側の断面）はペーパーナイフで切った状態で、小口と地小口（側面と下側の断面）は化粧裁ちをせず不揃いなまま紙の端を残して手仕事の味わいを残しています。
これから自分で使ってみて、耐久テストです！

sharing a "life hack" I adopted to encourage me to journal and doodle more

I got a standing pencil case, which is meant to stay upright when you have it open with the pens displayed vertically, that is also large enough to fit one or two small notebooks. I can leave it open on my desk with the cute highlighters and the notebook all in one neat display within hand's grasp and it encourages me to interact with it more. And it's all one piece that I can easily grab and take to the living room or put in my bag.

The case being a pleasant color I like to look at also encourages me to keep it in view. This exact model is a "RosyPosy" that I found scrounging around on Ali Express, but Kokuyo sells an extremely similar one that you may have an easier time finding. A6 notebooks fit easily, an A5 will barely fit as long as it doesn't have a bulky cover. You can also look at cases labeled as being for make-up/cosmetics, some of those are also stand-up.

New blog post about how I'm justifying not buying my wish list from the 2027 Hobonichi accessories lineup and how you can too (hint: shop your stash, you don't need a new cover and accessories every year) https://lostletters.neocities.org/2026/08/29/hobonichi-2027 #Hobonichi #stationery

One thing I forgot to include! I buy a Midori MD A6 Diary every year to document household purchases. There are more than enough pages, so I always end up with extra to rip out at the end for other means. (Maybe this year I'll make those scraps into a tiny book.)

I did say I wasn't going to get more covers but that was before I noticed they were re-releasing the Black x Blue covers. I wanted one last year, but could not justify it. Patience is a virtue.

Planner plans for 2027: a Hobonichi Cousin for everyday planning, a Stalogy 365 for continuing my interest in daily news and geopolitics, a 5 year journal to document my garden/weather/climate, a Midori 1 Day 1 Page Codex for other journaling, stickers for fun, pencil boards because I very much wear them out over the progress of a year.

Swatch Wednesday: Colorverse Black Hole

This was a gift from a friend who said it was more for the fun little bottle than anything exciting about the ink.  It’s a pretty cute little bottle and I didn’t have one since I think the only colorverse ink I have is a sample.

Colorverse Black Hole ink bottle, which has an unusual teardrop shaped base. This is the front view showing the bit sticking out on one side. The illustration has a stylized black hole and a little planet saying “SOS” on it.

Love that little picture on the front.  The bottle has a teardrop shaped base which I guess makes it a bit less likely to tip over and mostly just makes it interesting.

Colorverse Black Hole ink bottle, which has an unusual teardrop shaped base. This is thebottom view showing the teardrop shape, though it sits nice and flat because of the flat label on the front.

Inside, the ink is as one expects, a pleasant black.  There’s a tiny bit of sheen visible in the swatch on the right, and indeed I can see that in my writing occasionally if I look at it under a sufficiently bright light, but it’s more a cute coincidence than a regular feature of the ink on the paper I’m using.  Might be fun to try it on the iroful paper to see if it happens more consistently there; my current notebook is a leuchtterm.

My swatch card for Colorverse Black Hole, a black ink with a tiny hint of sheen in the bigger swatches.

I’m not too worried about getting the sheen to show up more, though, since the only other black ink bottle I have is a black with sheen from Inkvent Black (uuuh, Good Tidings I think it was called?).  I’m guessing that Black Hole dries quicker, though I didn’t actually test that.  I did, however, have some fun painting with it in the margins of my journal.

Some margin patterns in my notebook using Colorverse Black Hole ink on a paintbrush. One side has curly vine-like shapes, the other a geometric zig-zag with partial triangles.

Fun bottle and a nice practical ink.  Overall a very nice present!  And I think this is the last ink bottle or sample I had that I hadn’t swatched in my collection, so I’m all caught up and there’s no ink purchases on my horizon until the weather warms up, and maybe not even then — I’ve got so much to play with now!

2025 Diamine Inkvent Teal – Day 17-20

Still settling in to the new house. We’ve prepped a couple of rooms for painting but then the furnace decided it would just sometimes not turn on in the middle of a cold snap, and cold rooms are hard to paint. New thermostat is supposedly coming today and we really hope that’s the problem. It looks like the former owners had some weird zwave kickstarter thermostat that was not great even when it seemed to be working, but it may well be an issue with the furnace itself. Thank goodness for good insulation so we didn’t freeze when it turned off overnight.

Painting continues, so here’s a photo of Hatch who looked at the cardboard I put on the floor and thought “must be a dog bed.”

And then, immediately, “don’t take my picture!”

Anyhow, let’s talk inks.

Day 17: Gala. A nice shading purple. I really like this one! It’s a little more pink than J Herbin Violette Pensée, which is the closest thing in my collection. I’m pretty much always going to have the My Little Pony song “At the Gala” stuck in my head when I use this, especially since it’s a very twilight sparkle kind of purple.

Day 18: Laurel. Dark teal-leaning green base with so much red sheen that it’s more of a red ink than a green one. I like this one but I do wish it had a little less sheen so you could get more of the base colour, and it is very similar to Vibe from last year so it’s kind of boring in context. Still, viewed on its own it’s a fun ink and I appreciate that it’s a lot more green than all the other pink sheen inks I have. I wonder why I never see a deep red with the pink sheen? Something chemical or it just doesn’t look as cool in product photos?

Day 19: Overcast. A dual-tone ink that’s grey-blue with a pink tone. This one is really lovely, but unfortunately very close to my Fountain Pen Day purchase of Van Dieman’s Underflow. Underflow is a bit brighter and more green so they’re not exactly duplicates just very similar. I’ll use both!

Day 20: Ambiance. A peachy orange with pink sparkles. This one is unique in my collection — the closest ink I have has gold shimmer and despite the photo above making it look more gold, this one is definitely more of a pink shimmer when viewed head-on. I like it!

These are all lovely and will get used, though I feel like Laurel could have been more interesting with less sheen. I think Ambiance is the one I’m most excited to ink up and use in my journal, but probably Overcast and Gala will see more use over time due to the lack of shimmer.

Diamine Inkvent Teal 2025 Day 13-16

Another belated Inkvent post for swatch Wednesday! I didn’t bother doing inkvent posts in December because of the move, and in theory now that some of our stuff has arrived I could probably be unpacking instead of blogging about ink. But our stuff got separated into two shipments and a lot of the furniture is on the second truck, and in some cases we have bookshelves but no actual shelves so they’re unusable for unpacking. Oh well. We don’t have an ETA yet on the second half of stuff so we’re doing what we can.

And in the meantime, here’s some ink swatches!

Day 13: Molten Basalt. Grey with a reddish sheen. Normally I’m not a huge fan of greys because they’re either dark enough to mostly look black in practice, or they’re light enough that they’re kind of annoying to read without bringing much joy to my writing. (I like saturated colours!) But the sheen is enough to make this one interesting, and I like the name.

Day 14: Mittens. Hot pink pigment ink. I have no idea what could possibly call for waterproof Barbie pink ink in my life, but I love how saturated and unapologetic the colour looks. This one didn’t stain as badly as Brr! did but I was also a bit more careful about soaking the brush a few seconds after I was done using it.

Day 15: Frostbite. Dark blue with loads of copper shimmer. It looks a bit gold in the picture but its more coppery to my eye. This one’s very pretty and I’d like to see how it does in a pen where the shimmer is likely to be toned down a bit so you can actually appreciate the base colour.

Day 15: Ruby Taffeta. Red with iridescent green shimmer. For some reason the camera picks this up more as a silver but it’s noticeably green to my eyes in real life. This is the red of my dreams, exactly the red I’ve wanted and I’m almost mad that it’s got shimmer because it’s such a perfect red. (Look, I bonded with red pens during my stint as an editor, okay?) This will absolutely get used but it’s gonna be really tempting to not bother stirring it up and using it without the shimmer. Not that the shimmer is bad, but the slightly greenish iridescence isn’t what I would have chosen to go with such a glorious red. If anyone knows of a match for this colour without the shimmer, let me know!

Overall: I love all of these. Ruby Taffeta is probably my favourite, but Molten Basalt may get inked up more often due to the lack of shimmer. I do have some pinks similar to Mittens but they’re not pigment inks so it’s really a different beast. And the rest are all pretty different to what I had before!

In this week's blog post I talk about two cottagecore things I collect, stationery stickers and apothecary jars, and how I mashed them up together.
