Pen to match journal

[Bobostro61]

My wife does her own book binding on her home-made journals. Playing with my new gallon of Silmar 41, I made this blank last night to try and match the color of one of her journals. Here is the result.

It looks great. I think it makes a great set

Very nice! Had you wanted to go with wood, I think Masur Birch would also have been a good choice. Congrats to you both! Russ

Very nice color match. Agree with Masur Birch as wood choice for option.

What paper is she using for the inside. Is it hand crafted?

What paper is she using for the inside. Is it hand crafted?

The outside is 140 LB water color paper, the inside is 90 LB drawing paper, tea and rust stained... ALL hand crafted.
How she lifts all that weight I'll never know!! :beat-up:
