@RavenLovelyReads I totally get the favorite pen issue! This is my super boring, super plain, super fantastic pen! It lives in my wallet and when it runs out, I will not know what to do with myself 😂😭

RavenLovelyReads Hey- we love what we love! Thanks for the tag! 6y
Velvetfur That's really cool that your wallet has a pen slot! When it runs out you could maybe do what I do - unscrew that pen and a similar one that's new, and swap the inside part round, the bit that contains the ink, and screw the new one into the case of the fave pen! This is how you know that I too have favourite pens....! 6y

Practicing n' having fun 💕
Instead of reading I've been doing calligraphy and brush lettering, among other crafty things. Am I going to be punished? 🤔😂 This is one of the first things I've done, don't judge me too hard 😅

My husband does not do well with "How To" books, but this worked for him. He does tattoos, his downfall is lettering. A friend recommended learning to write calligraphy style. The way you hold the needle is similar to how you hold a calligraphy pen. It helped.

I really recommend this book.

This book is great for someone just beginning to pear calligraphy. I love the way it is formatted to show how to write each letter, but also groups together similar letters! Plus they have a section about adding flourish to your lettering which is so fun!
