My Aunt on my Mothers side wants me to make three pens for her daughters for Easter next year. Her only two requests are that the blank material be pink (she wants it to be girly) and the overall pen have a christian theme, as it will be Easter when she gives it to them. Neither my Aunt nor myself are Christian, but I know that a number of you are, so I am asking you for your design opinions.
My plan was to do a slimline pen in chrome, with a pink acrylic body. I would then use a chrome cross clip. I am wondering about the lower barrel half, would putting a decal there make it too complicated? The cross on the clip is a little subdued, and my aunt said she wants it to have overt christian tones because their husbands aren't too fond of them getting gifts from their mom, but won't touch their church related stuff. I was thinking a decal on the lower barrel might add to it, but something that would look OK on the pink body, and decently compact on a slim body. I could use some ideas/suggestions. A symbol, phrase, prayer, etc.
Cheers,
David.
