Dear Pen Family,
Can you believe it is already June? It feels like we were just celebrating the New Year, and now half of the year is almost behind us. Time truly has a way of moving faster than we expect. One of the reasons I love fountain pens, journaling, and writing is that they force us to slow down and capture moments before they slip away.
Last week was especially engaging for us. We held our monthly Pen, Ink, and Paper Club meetup, and the community continues to grow stronger with each gathering. The room was filled with laughter, stories, pen discussions, and of course plenty of ink testing! A special thank you to Nahvalur, who sponsored the event with their inks. Everyone had a wonderful time, and it was another reminder of how fortunate we are to have such an enthusiastic and welcoming community.
Speaking of Nahvalur, we also had Tony from Nahvalur and Omas at our store on Saturday, and it was BUSY! We had a fantastic turnout, and many customers had the opportunity to try Wahl Eversharp fountain pens for the first time. The response was so positive that many of you asked us to carry them. As a result, we've brought in a small selection to start with, and we're excited to see how they are received.
This week brings another exciting release. Retro 51 is launching the Tribute Fountain Pen, a special edition created to celebrate America's 250th Anniversary. With only 250 pieces produced, it is a fitting tribute to a remarkable milestone in our nation's history. We are honored to be part of bringing this release to the fountain pen community.
As always, thank you for being part of our Pen Boutique family. Whether you're attending a meetup, testing inks, collecting pens, or simply writing a note to someone special, you're helping keep the joy of writing ALIVE!
KEEP WRITING.
Warm regards,
Leena
P.S.: Remember the 75-gallon aquarium my kids surprised me with for Mother’s Day? I finally got it set up! It’s still a work in progress, but my new fish friends have moved in, and as promised, here’s a picture.
P.S. 2: Stay tuned for tomorrow's mystery Father's Day product launch. We have made a limited run of only 100.
