Fun on a sunny weekend in January.

This past weekend was such a great weeken that hubby was able to turn a couple of pens! He got an order for a segmented wooden pen using these 2 wood blanks.

He then cut them, glued them, waited, and then glued again. (He thought he was going to turn to dust due to all the waiting he had to do.) When all the glueing was done he then sliced them up and glued them one final time and he got this...

After these finally dried he was so ready to turn them into a fountain pen.


I think this pen came out pretty neat.  It was a good weeken all around.  

I will be doing a blog hop  for  the B'Sue Challenge on Friday. I hope you will come join us!

I did it!

So for the last month the Facebook group that I am a part of, B'Sue Boutique creative group,  has been talking about doing a 3month build your line challenge. I had been thinking about whether or not I had the experience to do this. I went to work this past week and was showing some pictures to a couple of coworker who were like "you so have to try this!"

My original idea was squashed before I could write it up but I fhought of something else that I hope will turn out to be fun. We will be doing a blog hop soon and that is when I can show what I thought up. Here is to hoping that people like it.

On other news I was working on a couple steampunk ideas.
I really like how the earrings came out
Now I just need to figure out what I want the chains for the necklaces to look like. I am a big dragon fan and I hope to be able to add more to my work 

Hubby has been complaining that the weather is too col to work on pens this week. I wonder what he is going to say next week when it is colder? 😊
