New Pen Day: Scribe Pens Unicorn Nugget Fountain Pen
One of my stationery goals for 2026 was to buy no more than 10 fountain pens, and it’s now the 8th of February and I’m already up to 2, so I need to be careful! But I really couldn’t resist my latest pen purchase, and as a handmade pen it’s unique, so I knew if… Read more
