I store my ink bottles in four white hard-paper boxes. Each box rests on a shelf. I use Col-O-Ring cards as labels to show me which color families rest in each box. The point is to minimize the number of bottles I need to search through in my hunt for a specific ink — when I have one in mind.

I spent my birthday outing to Bertram’s Inkwell converting staid nib choices into new and exciting writing options. Seeking an expert to convert general round nibs into specialized writers. An excellent path to a “new pen day” without buying a new pen.
