Pens!
We need a gift for my son's teachers (by Friday.. I might add) and I figured this is a good excuse to grab a full set of penmaking tools. So I dragged the littlest one to the store tonight and we loaded up. Here's the result.
These are "slimline" pens. The top one is redheart, and the bottom is olivewood. The readheart is finished with CA, Liberon polish, and Liberon stick wax. The olivewood is finished with CA and a different brand of woodurning polish (I can't remember the name right now). The olivewood one was first, and took about 90 minutes because I was reading the book. The second took about 40 minutes, and I only lost one blank to the CA drying too fast.
These were a lot of fun, and I plan to do a bunch more.

They are both lovely - the band on the top is especially nice. Good timing, too- the pens would make wonderful graduation presents!
