Ok Pipes, just make them pens out of the Baron Rollerballs. Being a woman, I know these kits are liked by most women, so go for it. Use wood with a lot of figure since the recipients will like something that will draw attention and spalted or highly figured woods work great for that. Make sure you use a pen box and include your business card with them and it will be fine. Your other option is to have Bill at Az.S overnight you the kits of your choice.
Good luck,
Janet

You could also use an Olympia. It's the same size as a slimline (unless you make them like I do) and has a very elegant look to it. You can get them from Arizona Silhouette.

You might also consider a synthetic material. In my admittedly limited experience, they seem to sell well to women.

I'll go with either Berea's perfect Fit through Arizona Silhouette (call Bill B if you need this fast) or CSUSA's Jr Gent twist pen.

If you want to use wood...get a nice curly Maple (or any light wood) and dye it. Dye is also available at CSUSA (not sure if AS carry any)

Both companies can probably get you the kits by tomorrow.

Good luck!!!

You might try some corian. Most of my corian sales have been to women and the finish does not need to cure[8D]
