    Default the big weekend

    where to start

    thursday night, very pleasant outside so i decided to do saome resin cast, wedding pearl, pink/gold pearlex, bright yellow pearlex, spring green pearlex, plus the dregs

    friday night was cut, glue and trim, ready for saturday

    saturday the boss decided he wanted some wishing wells in the window for a display, couldn't resist the free advertising so i had to comply, then into the pens

    picture 1
    Anelli - dregs, looks rather good, much better in the flesh lots of swirly bits that blend
    anelli - Spring Green, Bright Yellow combination
    anelli - molten metal - silver/sunset gold
    St Charles - pink/gold resin, i just wanted to what this looked like, ladies are happy
    anelli - pink/gold resin
    St Charles and 2 anellis - wedding pearl, sold the last couple of these for weddings very quickly, fingers crossed

    picture 2
    Aeros from CSUSA, which i am guessing are Elegant Beauties under another name
    Mango, Soloman Islands Ebony, Molten Silver Resin, Pink Ivory

    Picture 3
    Workshop Pencil - celtic Knot, coral wood??? and huon pine
    Jnr Gent - titanium Gold Fountain Pen, Buckeye Burl
    Gentlemans Rollerball - Titanium Gold - Sunset Gold Resin, got the molten look as well

    thanks for looking

    MIK

    Hey Mik,

    Nice work, I really like the Fountain pen, It's nice when you get some time to play in the shed, and end up with something that SWMBO can see at the end. Well done.

    thanks guys

    i am sure everyone does the same in regards to choices of wood and kit combination

    Now what would this look good with. sometimes though the choices are just too hard

    eye catching is always the key
