Tombow Brush Pens

If you ask a fellow bullet journal lover what their favorite pens are for journalling they’re pretty sure to tell you how much they love Tombow pens! They were originally a hit with adult coloring book fans but now every BUJOer wants a set in their pencil case!

What’s so great about a Tombow?

Well they have a long and elegant brush tip that you can use in so many different ways.

For example you can distribute the pigment on your page using a water brush or a paint brush dipped in water letting you practice watercolor painting without the mess.

They also have a really good pigment, and if you’re working in the small space in your journal you shouldn’t see any streaking.

These are dual brush pens so one end has the brush marker, and the other end has a fine tip which is perfect for adding colorful details to your doodles and illustrations or for journaling.

These brush pens are so versatile you can use them for everything from coloring in your cover page illustrations, to decorating your spreads and even adding some highlights to your headings.
