In the begining

[Toni]

when I joined IAP and knew NOTHING about pens someone posted about an Aero the first thing that came to my mind was a delicious chocolate bar we have in New Zealand

Then of coarse I realized duhh it was not a pen made with chocolate its a pen kit!! See how far I have come, here are some Aero's I made and the one above well I ate it:biggrin:

 

[nava1uni]

As usual very beautiful. Your work astounds me.

 

[Pioneerpens]

Stunning Toni! And Yes, you have come far since you first came and wondered if you should stay since you didn't turn pens....I will happily say "I told you so"

 

[TomS]

Beautiful. I have some Aero's I haven't finished yet. If they turn out half as nice as yours, I'll be happy

Great Looking Pens as usual, I didn't tell you any thing, but glad you stuck around.

 

[BRobbins629]

Your flowers are always nice, but the blue one rocks - even looks like wet rocks.

so, knowing absolutely nothing about PC pens, imagine what went thru my mind the first time I heard people talking about "canes" and how you slice them to make those pens!
I swear I've watched a 100 videos on how to make those d*** things and I am still confused how you get those amazing patterns. My next vacation is going to be to New Zealand !!!

 

[LouCee]

Looks fantastic!

 

[woodsofourlives]

[Toni]

I've seen these all over the boards and never commented..... those are fantabulous! And THIS post in particular inspires me to drill, turn and seal a candy bar

Hey, we've case dry soup mix, oatmeal, ramen and coffee beans so why not?

 

[Lenny]

I really like the Aero kit myself. .... haven't sold many But I like it!
I'm partial to the purple one ... I think because I like the little bit of gold on the kit with it.

The candy bar looks pretty good, too!

 

[kevrob]

Wow, as always those are great. I tried my hand at PC a month or so ago. I ended up getting a marbled black slimline that turned out ok. But i had a heck of a time getting an even layer of PC on the tube, so I am even more amazed at those beautiful works of art!

Make a pit stop in Utah! I'll trade you ski lessons (as if a Kiwi needs 'em) on the steepest, lightest powder you've ever fallen in for a lesson in Polymere Clay !!! Not eveyone here has 7 wives and 37 kids and pushes a handcart for their daily bread! Some of us are actually real humans (yes, we drink too!)

That right there is funny.

Very nice pens Toni. Does the purple have a bit of a dip in the middle or is it just an optical illusion?

 

[ldb2000]

Another beauty Toni . I like your version better it's "Eye Candy" and best of all , it won't rot your teeth :biggrin:

You gotta come home to Jersey . You can take the girl out of New Jersey but you can never take New Jersey out of the girl !

 

[JimMc7]

Great photos of beautiful pens!

 

[Displaced Canadian]

That is a great chocolate bar, haven't had one of those since I left Canada.

 

[Penl8the]

Beautiful pens as usual. I like them both.

As for Aero bars, I bought a bunch of mini ones for Halloween. Oh and mini Kit Kats too.

 

[DCBluesman]

The Nestle Aero is a nice candy, but I prefer the Cadbury Flake! And thank you for all of the beauty you have displayed so far.

 

[bobjackson]

Great job girl. It'll be great to have you back in the USA.

 

[cnirenberg]

Both are sweet. Unfortunately one will rot your teeth, and you will have to use the other to write the check for it. I really love your work-very beautiful.

 

[JohnU]

Toni I think they All look great! Candy bar included. Lol. So... I think you should try a combination of both. Those green bubbles on a tube would look good, especially for those retro lovers. I love the flower blanks but those scale looking blanks are over the top! Great work!

 

[wizard]

Toni, They are beautiful. I vote for Texas !!

 

[ThomJ]

I think Vermont would be a good place for you guys. (being selfish) Your blanks would be close for me to get to, and we could always use more artists here

I agree - maybe even using some chocolate colored PC to make it look like a candy bar with the wrapper partially removed.

A whole new market! Just warn your customer that the pen in not edible! Unless you make an edible pen too - something for those people who chew on pens LOL - and repeat business!!

 

[Rfturner]

you always do amazing work. When I first heard that you do not turn oyur pens it made me really confused. Then you expained PC. Great job on your pens

 

[holmqer]

The "wet rocks" is absolutely amazing!
