Not sure if this is the best place to put this, but I got super excited about this thing I made today:

 

 

Of course I could have made them without the silly faces, but that's no fun. I will probably have multiple versions of more plain (and less glittery) ink. I may even be able to write on a favorite color on the label.

 

I worked pretty hard on the teeny nib as well:

 

I even put ridges on the feed:

 

(like I said, I got too excited about it and I didn't let it dry before taking pictures, so I have to paint over it again in gold)

 

What do you guys think? I am thinking about making a charm bracelet with using a bunch of colors of droplets, or even some paper, some even resembling some well known brands like rhodia.

I think the ink pot looks a bit sad to have been spilled

 

Interesting idea anyway - how big are they? I can't get a sense of scale from the pics.

Lol, thank you!

 

They're not that big, really. The bottle is about 1cm tall x 1cm wide, the droplet is about 2cm tall and ..75cm wide, and the pen is roughly 4.5cm with the widest part of the nib at .4cm
