(If you are just stumbling across this post today, I have some bad news: entries are closed; this giveaway is over; and this bird has flown to its lucky new owner. But I have some good news, too: the pen still is available for purchase, so go ahead and read the review if you’re interested. And do read the comments below, because our commentators contributed some awesome rhymes. Hooray.)
Our friends at Pen Chalet are giving away this gorgeous Platinum Classic Maki-e fountain pen with a broad nib through Fountain Pen Follies. The pen is great. Don’t take my word for it — everyone at my Pelikan Hub loved it, too.
To enter to win the Classic Maki-e, just leave a comment below. Any comment is fine, but how about something that rhymes with Pen Chalet? Mine would probably be, “I’m waiting for the next Dim Sum tray.” But for the well born, maybe, “I could use a good valet.” Fans of the most lovable baseball team ever surely know, “Hey, hey, what do you say, the Cubs are going to win today.” And kudos for anything like, “Shopping at Pen Chalet makes it a good day.”
This contest is open to anyone, anywhere, but only one entry per person is allowed. I will randomly select the winner on September 27th, and post the lucky winner’s name on the blog. So be sure to check back then. Once announced, the winner will need to contact me with a mailing address within a week.
Arriba arriba! Andale!
Hurry up & give this pen away!

Imagine what happened to me today…
I was strolling though the internet and found The Pen Chalet.
It said to post a comment on the blog to enter the Maki-e giveaway.
I said, “hey, why not? Ok!”
So I turned the oven down so not to burn the Soufflé.
I even recorded the game on the DVR so I could later replay.
I don’t want to get off-topic or go astray.
So lets clap for Fountain Pen Follies and shout hooray.
I wish y mind on this rhyme it would stay.
But I must go to sleep so so I can awaken before the sun’s first morning ray.
I have to go to my job to make money for ink, bills and modeling clay.
I like inks the color of cardinals and perhaps a nice colored Blue-Jay.
Not to much into browns like the color of hay.
But I must say, that I like the feel of “Oil-of-Olay.”
If I get chosen to win, I will draw a huge dragon to slay.
If I don’t don’t win just me a Fountain pen anyway.
Thank you for the opportunity from me, Jorge.

For pens, you need Pen Chalet.
For eggs, that’ll be Faberge.
For sewing, try haberdashery.
