to choose from, each piece of wood with its own history and story to
tell. Each
wood pen is individually handcrafted on my lathe. The pen is
then polished for a high sheen, smooth finish.

Hawaiian Koa Wood Hand-Turned Curvy Wood Pen
On my recent annual trek to Hawaii, I found the
most gorgeous curly grained Koa wood. Curly grained Koa is a rare
find and is getting more rare each year we travel on our yearly wood
turning adventure. I couldn't pass up this gorgeous wood. It came
home safely packed in my suit case.

The manzanita root wood used to create this pen has been through the
Santa Barbara fire, washed out to the Pacific Ocean and landed up on
our local Surf Beach here in Lompoc, California.
The ink color is black.

The Carob Wood used in this piece was from a
tree the city was cutting down on South G Street in Lompoc,
California. It was rescued from being snarled at and pulverized by
a beastly chipper shredder! Now it can assist in writing lovely
letters and penning your secret thoughts rather than being mulch.

Imagine composing your next letter with a small
bit of history. This gorgeous handcrafted wooden pen was designed
from the wood of an old walnut tree that I stumbled across in
Sacramento, California. For thirty years I have held onto a few
scraps of wood from that wonderful old walnut orchard, waiting for
just the right project to bring out the true beauty of this wood.
You can still smell the walnut trees in the air as they stood
graceful and powerful every time you pick up this pen.

The Chinese Elm wood used in this piece was a
trimming from a tree on South U Street in Lompoc, California. My
daughter and her boys were driving through town one day and saw some
tree trimmers. She quickly rushed home to inform me of the "gold"
that lay waiting. As I approached the workers they were quickly
feeding this amazing golden Chinese Elm wood into the chipper
shredder to become mulch. I quickly parked and asked if I could
scavenge a few pieces from their trimmings pile. They happily
granted my request. So the little piece of wood was saved from
pending doom to create this wood pen just for you.

There is a local cabinet shop here in Lompoc,
California that has given me permission to "dumpster dive" through
their discards and scraps at the end of the work day. One day I
happened up the most wonderful light walnut piece. The grain is
abundant and striated. The walnut wood begged to be rescued from
the dumpster and of course I was just the person to rescue it and
give it new purpose.

Olive Wood Hand-Turned Wood Pen
My
son-in-law's dad knows I am a wood fanatic. He had a neighbor who
was trimming trees and making a firewood pile to share with his
neighbors. He took a bundle of trimmings and logs for his fire to
keep his house warm during the cold Sacramento winters. He brought
home his bundle and gave me a call. The next time I visited
Sacramento, CA I pursued the firewood pile and rescued the several
pieces from certain incineration. The olive wood used to create
this pen came eye to eye with a fiery furnace and has instead found
new life as this writing instrument to warm your heart as you pen
your thoughts on cold winter nights.

Being the scavenger seeker that I am, I decided
to try to find other materials to use to create some of my pieces. I
came across some lovely Corian counter top remnants and decided to
see how Corian would turn on my lathe. To my pleasant surprise, it
turned quite lovely! It gives the pen a nice weight as well.
This particular Corian piece is a wonderful speckled blue color.
It is also available in other colors, I will add them to the website
as I create them. If you are searching for a particular color, just
let me know and I'll see what I can scrounge up.

This is such a fun pen! It is made with a
popular countertop material that I have found to be a wonderful
material to turn on my lathe. A local cabinet shop has given me
permission to "dumpster dive" through their discards. So this lovely
confetti pen was saved from life in the landfill.
Black ink and truly a unique piece.
