Rating every pen I own (100+!) (The pens you need… and the pens you don’t)

Posted on March 24, 2022January 29, 2023 by Rachael

I’ve posted many pen reviews over the years from my favorite gel pens, ballpoint pens, erasable pens, those that come in large rainbow packs, papermate inkjoy dupes and those with yellow ink you can actually see. My opinions of pens have changed over the years as I’ve tried more pens and become more critical with…

Pen Comparison – is there actually a difference in ink color between brands?

I’m always on the hunt for new pens to try and stumbled across Ooly. I’ll admit it, some almost all of my pen purchasing decisions are based on how pretty the pen itself is, which was the case with most of the Ooly pens. I can’t say no to pretty rainbow colors! In the past…

Favorite pens for writing headings in my planner

Posted on July 14, 2017August 22, 2020 by Rachael

I have a slight addiction to pens and have become rather particular with which pens I use for what, especially when it comes to writing headings / titles where I prefer to use thick / marker style pens so they stand out more.

I’m a massive pen addict. MUST. TRY. THEM. ALL. There are tons of pen brands out there, but not all of them are readily available in stores.
