It's a nice set, but I can't figure out how to use the items in it. I'm hoping maybe someone here knows. It has dip pens and inkwells, a wooden blotter (curved thingie with blotter papers that should go with it, but I'm not sure how exactly), and a burner (for filling with alcohol? lamp oil?) for melting sealing wax in a wax spoon. Can anyone tell me how to use any of these things? Or direct me to instructions someplace?</p> http://diyplanner.com/node/6091#comments Pens, Pencils and Brushes Sun, 28 Sep 2008 17:09:01 -0400 Rachel R. 6091 at http://diyplanner.com
