Step-by-step
Step 1
You can see everything you need at a glance in our photo. The edding 1255 calligraphy pens come in three stroke widths and five colours. In our example, we opted for 2 mm and 3.5 mm widths and chose black as our colour. To help you pick the colour and nib that best suits your handwriting, we recommend you try out the different line widths on paper beforehand.
Step 2
Using the edding 1255 calligraphy pen, label the bamboo spoons with the names of the various sauces and dips. Tip: the secret to expressive calligraphy is to hold the pen in the same position (known as the “writing angle”) at all times, and don’t twist the nib as you write.
Step 3
Another idea is to decorate the spoons with the words “Enjoy” or “Bon appétit”.
Step 4
Arrange the bowls and spoons attractively – and now your barbecue can begin!
