I made these pens for my 3 sisters. I cut three pieces from them and glued them together then place a strip of a fifth wood and place it in at 45 degree angle. The fifth wood links the others together. The thought is that we will all have a pen with a piece of the others pen linked together by a different piece of wood. The symbolism is of all of us links together by our father. After I had started I thought of more creative ways to glue up the wood but over all I'm pleased. I hope they enjoy them.

That's a really creative idea, and very well executed. I hope you & your sisters remain close family and friends for many years to come -- this gift can only contribute to it happening.
