Ink Fix #3 was a celebration of Spring for October! (Florals? For Spring? Groundbreaking, we know.) The 2019 Singapore Pen Show was blessed with an exclusive ink by 雅流 Yachingstyle + IPAPER, which also made it south to the 2019 Sydney Pen Show— where Max snagged some to include for our Ink Addict friends who couldn’t make it to either show!
The third box was flower themed, and we hope you love the bunch we picked!
Featured inks in Ink Fix #3 were (from top to bottom in the above picture):
Blackstone Australia Golden Wattle
A vivid yellow with minimal shading
Ancient Song Peach Blossom
Pink-orange ink with gold shimmer
Sailor Jentle Sakura-mori
Light, orange-leaning pink
Pure Pens Flower of Scotland
Bold, hearty, deep purple with a red lean
雅流 Yachingstyle + IPAPER 洋桔梗 (Bellflower)
Blue? Purple? Grey? All of the above at once?
Organics Studio Potassium Lavender
A slightly-desaturated blue-lavender
Noodler’s Ink Nightshade
A blackish-purple with shade
Kyo-no-oto 08 Urahairo
This pretty pale green shades best in broad nibs
Our intended stationery goodie for the month didn’t arrive in time to be included in the box, so we elected to throw in more ink samples than usual as a… we were going to say ‘consolation prize’, but more ink is better, right?
You should have seen the look on Max’s face when the flower washi arrived at the Post Office right as the Ink Fix was being posted. 😣🤬😤
