I would try to find a piece of nice drift wood or an odd shapped branch of a tree. Drill some holes a little larger than your pen diameter deep enough to hold your pens. I'd use a forstner bit to cut a clean hole.

Also, pick a shape of something, like a fish, football, etc. If I were doing this I would probably cut out an aircraft carrier shaped piece of wood. Then just drill holes and be done.

Now if you are wanting a display on a more permanant basis, build a shadow box with a few rows to hold your pens and add a glass framed front with hinges. I made something similar for a friend to display her shot glasses.

Hope this helps with some ideas.
