Inkmas Day 4 already! Today we have a pair of inks that were created by Sailor exclusively for the Dromgoole’s store – Apricot Jam and Mint Jelly.

Inkmas 3: Octopus Inks Fairy
What does an Octopus Ink Fairy look like? Like a Sheen Queen! And not at all like the silly little doodle I made in my ink test. Octopus Inks Fairy ink ($21.50 for 30ml bottle) is a magenta pink ink with a ridiculous amount of sheen. The sheen is a green-gold color so as the…
Inkmas 2: Greens, from Grinchy to Spruce!
So this year I thought I’d take a bit of a different approach to our Inkmas. While I often try and share new inks with you, or re-share favorites from my past, this year I just didn’t feel like I had anything new to highlight. What I did think about is the amazing selection of…
It’s beginning to look a lot like INKMAS!
Welcome to another year of Inkmas! This is the time of the year where we celebrate our love for ink and maybe get caught up on all the ink reviews we’ve put off all year. We’ll be doing quick reviews, comparisons and collection overviews — or whatever strikes our fancy. So from now until Christmas…

One of my favorites from the first release was Vinta Aegan Armada 1944 ($14 for a 30ml bottle). The color is a steely blue grey…
