Purely Personal Beaded Pens

My Pen - still lovely after 8 years!

I found these beautiful beaded pens years ago when I was still selling on Etsy. That Etsy vendor family (mother and daughter), and I, quickly became dear cyber friends. We’ve sent each other surprise gifts. We’ve bought from each other. And we’ve prayed for each other.

I have had my lavender and white beaded pen for about 8 years now. And it shows absolutely no sign of wear! These folks sell the pens in your choice of colors. Think: favorite colors, team colors, school colors, patriotic colors, holiday colors! The order also includes 10 refills.

The pens come either plain at the top, like mine, or with charms attached! The charms make it very easy to truly personalize the pen for a gift. Buyers can choose bead colors and then choose initial charms or others. I really like the idea of the initial charms. It makes it harder for your pen to “walk away” from you or “disappear."

I’m a bit paranoid about my own pen. I never take it out of the house! I’m so afraid it will go away. For me, it’s a wonderful “girly” treasure.

Browsing their Facebook photos, I saw beaded pens with charms for breast cancer, snowflakes and more. But I love, love, love mine. One reason is that I am old school and grew up with pens with fat barrels. This pen, because of the beading, just loves to be held in my hand.

I cannot imagine the patience and time it takes to make one of these.

They also make absolutely beautiful beaded earrings - snowflakes and so many more.

Here is a link to their Etsy shop (Etsy) and one to their Facebook (Facebook) page.

This is one to save for when you need something for someone who is really hard to buy for, or for when you just need to treat yourself!
