new pen

[jssmith3]

Hi everyone, this is my first attempt at PR. I beaded the tube then set it in PR then turned it. Had to much time on my hands at the airport and this is what happened, not sure if I like it or not but it was definitely to much work!

looks like a lot of work. what type of wood is the bottom barrel

 

[jssmith3]

The wood is Pink Ivory, I didn't have enough of it to do both tubes of a pen so I came up with this.

That came out nice Janet, I like the possible ideas for designs that can come from that.

Now that's what I call thinking outside the box. Good job and very creative.

OK Janet, I looked at your album and you can PAINT AND TURN. That is just not fair!![xx(] (that is green with envy) Some of us are just monoskilled.

Janet,
Am I getting this right? The design on the top of the pens was made like this? You glued little beads on the tube to create your design then PR'd it? Boy that is a lot of work!! Fantastic.[]

Great Idea. Looks very nice!

So let me ask you. How do you carry PR, beads and all the stuff needed to make a pen tube with you on the plane?

 

[Bev Polmanteer]

Janet, that is absolutely wonderful! I too love to do beading but never thought of doing that! You're too clever[8D][][8D]

Hi Ron, I had the beads and the pen tube with me, I had the idea before I left for the airport. The beads were put on waxed cord then put around the tube. PR'ed after I got home []

I can also bead jewelry (and now pens)[] and was just looking for a way to incorporate the little crafts I do here and there, I am sure you have some hidden talents too.
