Pen wrap

I have a confession to make: I have been looking at the Fountain Pens Australia (FPA) group page on Facebook. This is a “confession”, because I don’t actually have a FB account. The FPA group is a closed group, so for me to be able to look at it, M had to join it using his account. I’m using his account on the condition that I don’t comment. So far it’s probably been A Good Thing, because members of the group sell their pens there, and because I can’t easily communicate with them, I’ve not bought any pens. Money saved, right?

Then one of the members posted that she was selling pen wraps – and hurrah, she has a blog and I could contact her off FB!

Long story short, I am now the proud and happy owner of a beautiful pen wrap! I do love how the Internet enables me to contact people like me, and allows me to indulge in things like this.

I love the fabric, the design, and the fact that this was made just for me! There is something special about being able to talk to the artisan who makes the beautiful thing you wish to have…

Hello C,

Thank you for sharing your wrap and I’m so glad that you love it. It’s one of my favourites so far because of that shocking red lining. You really will have to make a Fb account just so that you can join us, it would be great to hear from you!

Off to add your blog to the list on my site! xxx

Thanks for your comment, Lisa. I am pondering the notion of a FB account – I’m stuck on what pseudonym I’d use…
