    Talking Unique uses for pens

    Last year my wife and I celebrated our fiftieth wedding anniversary,before the due date I made 27 pens for the guys and my wife made about 25 round cloth boxes with seed pearl beads around etc a piece of her wedding dress in and under the lid a piece of the sleeveless pullover I wore on the wintry day in Canberra details of weddind date etc under.
    The pens were all made from a 1000yr old piece of burled huon pine. Went down a treat

    Crongrats on 50 years marriage, the Huon Burl I have seen is amazing. For it beening that age it must have had a nice golden hue to it.
