First Project that I was proud of.

After having surgery on my right ankle bone in 2015, I had 8 weeks of not being able to stand or walk. So, I was either in my recliner or laying on the bed. I took that time to to research pen making as I had always been fascinated by them. I set about compiling a list of the absolute necessary equipment and once I had what I needed, I made my first pen. It was a mitigated disaster but an incredible lesson. Over time, my skills improved and I am now able to make some beautiful pens from wood, acrylic, and hybrid materials. As much as I love making the pens, I have started to broaden my horizon's and am making other projects. I am most proud of the wooden crosses such as the Unity Cross that I have been making during the last few weeks. Not only do they symbolize my faith as a Christian but they are also a beautiful piece of art to display on the wall. Merry Christmas everyone!
