I fell in love with the Titanium spectrum kits from the moment I saw them.
I just had to get some. The bright shiny surface and rainbow like colors are beautiful.
As soon as I had placed my order, I started working on making the blank to go with it.
I used 4 different colored bold roses, I had to make the purple rose cane on the spot as the ones I had made previously weren't dark/bold enough. A two toned leaf, rainbow butterflies and lady bugs with some little white flowers to break up the bold colors.
There is no finish on the blank, it's just sanded and polished ( I love how shiny polymer clay becomes) I did a live video sanding/polishing this blank.

To date this is my favorite pen I have made and am so happy I was able to get some of these kits.
Thanks for looking. :)

Melanie,
Beautiful pen. I picked up a few of those kits at the MPG. Waiting for the perfect blank. I looked you up on you Tube and Etsy. I see you have videos on can making but I didn't see anything on turning them into blanks. Any chance of you doing some on making blanks from your canes?

Thank you. They are a really neat kit.
My YouTube is mostly cane work, on my Facebook shop page I have several live video's that will remain on my page for reference, I do have a video on how I make my blanks from canes and I just did one for sanding and polishing which was this actual blank in that video. They are live so there is some boring parts but hopefully they help. :)



WOW! Those are great.

Thank you so much Jim. :)


Wow Mel, that is truly beautiful.

Thank you very much Brotherdale. :)


They are beautiful. Love the colors.

Thank you Jan, the colors are what pulled me to those kits, love them so much.

More than lovely. I know that you didn't drill the blanks, but do you know what size drill this kit takes? Thank you, and thank you for sharing your work!

Thank you so much Tony.:)
Correct, I didn't need a drill bit for these but from the website it says a 27/64 for this one.

Thank you so much Brian.
I am such a huge fan of bright bold colors. I just wish I had the nerve to paint my studio in such colors. :biggrin:

I haven't seen that kit until now.
I have some color shifting blanks that might look good on that kit.

Sig Sauer has been using that finish for a few years. I guess it was just a matter of time before it made it's way to pens.

I had seen them finished a couple of times in a Facebook group, so I had to ask where to get them. They are super colorful in person.

Thank you Mal, I was way too excited for them. Like a kid in a Candy Store. LOL
