Absolutely! It’s as easy as writing your name at the top of your homework—before realizing you forgot to do the rest.

Yes! While it's designed for full 80" drama, you can print fewer pages to make a shorter version or enlarge if you want the world’s biggest pencil sword.

Felt and fleece are top picks! Fleece benefits from interfacing to help the pencil hold its shape. Metallic fabric is great for the shiny ferrule (and makes it ✨fabulous✨).
