My son got married last month. I may be biased, but it was the most beautiful wedding I've ever seen. I made a wedding pen for them, but I was so inspired I decided to make pens for the wedding party and family. I chose Executive kits because they're single body and easy to assemble. But they also look nice, especially for their cost. I used purple heart in honor of my daughter-in-law's favorite color. I finished them with Watco danish oil, one of my late father's favorite finishes. I made them for the four bride's maids, four groomsmen, Heather's parents, my ex-wife and her husband, and my sister. Gold for the ladies, chrome for the gentlemen. It was a lot of work, but I think they will be appreciated. Yes, those are handcuffs! Joe is a corrections officer.
