Default My Very First Brush

I set silver tip badger bristles in a Gabon ebony handle with fine silver studs and a turquoise cabachon. Pretty goth, eh?

Now I have to make a stand to hold it, a mug/scuttle and a razor or three. I bet it will be scary.

So does that mean you like my design and handiwork or are you making some sort of insulting joke?

Since you made that rock n roll brush, go the whole hog and make a dragon's claw brush holder and a skull shaped shaving mug.

PS: I like it, brings me back to 1984, the year I graduated HS.

Neither - I mean that you are certainly not old enough (in reference to the morning glory clubs of the middle ages.)

Your handiwork is fantastic!

That looks great, and I have a feeling it will be easy to grip even when you get lather on your hands, which will be handy.
