Pen Dangler Project

The Pen Dangler from The Bead Studio is a great way to identify and personalize your pen. It is easy to make and a great way to use up leftover beads and scraps of chain. What a wonderful gift this will make with a set of stationery or a note pad. Watch out, they are addictive.
