    Default First time wedding set

    This is my first attempt at a wedding set. They are for a friends daughter who is getting married next month in NZ and we cant make the wedding so I thought I would send these over instead.
    Both are my own casts white and gold pearlex and black and gold pearlex wrapped around JR Victor rollerballs.
    Apologies if pics aren't up to scratch as I used my samsung tablet cause I haven't got the canon fixed yet.

    Rumnut what a great wedding set mate, they will truly love them and what a greater gift than something made from the heart. I love the fact that you cast the blanks themselves. As for your photos, if that is the quality from a tablet, that is not bad my friend. Love your work and the choice of pens as well.

    Cheers

    Trev,

    I am one half of a first time wedding myself and 57 yrs later extremely proud to say so.

    Think your picture perfect, pen perfect wedding gift very tasteful, complete. We spend years trying to get special pics and here you are saying sorry IMHO great pics.

    Totally wonderful presents amongst the best wedding pens I have seen.

    Kind regards Peter.

    Thanks for all the comments folks, this was a practice run of sorts as my son gets hitched in August so I've got more to do yet.

    Thanks Tony, it came out a bit to one side & I didn't want to put to much gold into either blank & as you know the timing is critical when trying two mix two or more colours without altering the original colour.
    Regards Rumnut.
