March: The Six Pen Challenge!

For the last couple years, Kata (@kataish) and ย Franz (@franzdimson) have run the Six Pen Challenge on Instagram — this year we’re hoping that more people will join us! ย This will be the first year that the Hand Over That Pen crew will be doing it together!

This year’s Instagram tag is #6PENCHALLENGE17. And the challenge will begin on March 1, 2017. Even if you start late in March, it’s perfectly fine. It’s all about the fun of it. =)

Tag your Instagram/Twitter posts to show that you’re joining in this fun challenge and to show your progress as well.

There’s only one rule in this challenge:ย Only six pens inked at a time.

Once you’ve written a pen dry, will you be re-inking it? Or choose another pen to ink up and use? That’s totally up to you! ย It’s a great way to appreciate your pens and have a bit more focus and fun in this pen hobby of ours.

Check out #6PenChallenge on Instagram for past photos/posts. The Six Pen Challenge was first ran on October 2014, then May 2015, and the last one was March 2016.

Will you join us? Which are your six pens and inks? Let us know!

  1. I just don’t understand how do you use more than 6 pens! I already have 6 and I find two of them are totally non used. ๐Ÿ˜›

    1. Aww man… the 6 Pen Challenge started because of the fact that I’ve had almost 30 inked up at the time.

      I guess the challenge is meant to be like a reset for my pens. 11 months in a year, I have a lot inked up.
