What you will need
This will make one floral pen
Hot glue gun with glue stick
1 silk flower
1 ballpoint pen
Green florist tape
Scissors
How to Make the Pen
1. Remove the silk flower and leaves from the artifical flower bunch.
Insert a glue stick into the hot glue gun and an turn it on. You may like to have a scrap of paper underneath the glue gun to protect your work area from melting glue.
2. Remove the cap from the top of the pen.
Using the florist tape wrap the pen, starting at the ballpoint end. Neatly wrap around the tip of the pen and continue to wrap the tape arround it until it is completely covered.
3. Turn your flower over so that the base is facing upwards and glue the leaves to the bottom of the flower. Press down lightly to bond.
Be careful not to burn yourself when using the glue gun as it will be very hot.
4. Place some more hot glue onto the center of the flower (see above image) and wait a few seconds before firmly placing the end of the pen in the glue (see below).
Make sure that the pen is straight and continue to press down until the glue has set.
