Avoid Excessive Moisture:
Wood is sensitive to moisture, so it’s crucial to keep your pen away from water or excessive humidity. Moisture can cause the wood to swell, warp, or even crack. Always store your pen in a dry environment.
Protect from Extreme Temperatures: Extreme heat or cold can also damage the wood. Avoid leaving your pen in direct sunlight, near radiators, or in freezing conditions. Drastic temperature changes can lead to cracks or color fading.
Clean with Care:
To clean your wooden pen, use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently wipe the surface. Avoid harsh chemicals or solvents that may harm the wood’s finish. If necessary, lightly dampen the cloth with water or a mild soap solution.
Handle with Care:
Treat your handmade pen with care to prevent accidental damage. Avoid dropping it or subjecting it to excessive force. Additionally, avoid placing heavy objects on top of your pen or storing it in crowded spaces where it may get scratched.
Regular Use:
Wooden pens benefit from regular use as it helps to keep the wood conditioned and prevents drying or cracking. Enjoy writing with your handmade pen frequently to maintain its quality.
By following these care tips, you can ensure that your handmade wooden pen remains a treasured item that brings joy and exceptional writing experiences for years to come.
