INKS!!! Feathering, bleeding and ghosting!

Have got back to using inks and good ol' fountain pens in a big way in the last couple of months.
Have bought several beautiful pens from Lamy, Twsbi Eco, Twsbi Swipe, Pilot Kaküno, Pilot Twist, and a couple of cheaper Pelicans. 

Will review them all here one by one gradually, but let me begin with sharing a good article which explains these terms fountain pen users use commonly - feathering, ghosting, bleeding. It's always the interaction between the pen, the ink and the paper that may result in these issues and it's usually trial and error before we find what paper suits which pen and ink best. 

So here's this lovely article!

Different Coloured Fountain Pen Inks

Had a little jaunt in the Mumbai Fort area and found this wonderful stationery store called Excellent Stationers at Gunbow Street.

They stock loads of different coloured inks for fountain pens!! They showed me a catalogue of colours, easily over a 100. After my fruitless hunt in my own area, finding this store with all these inks was a taste of heaven.

I bought 2 for now - Turquoise and a Violent. Next visit to the store, shall try some other interesting colours.

The same store had A4 sized golden stickers. I had actually been looking for label sized golden stickers, but hadn't been able to find them. Lots of golden and silver round stickers available, but rectangles, no! So this stationer was selling them for Rs.20/= per sheet, so I bought some.  I can always cut and use, in fact, it'll work better, because now I won't be restricted by size!

And just for good measure, I bought a pack of Staedtler Lumocolor permanent - a pack of 8, since right now, I'm a lot into markers!
