Blooming Flower Pens

Blooming Flower Pens

Follow these simple directions and make a pen that looks like a flower!

  • Age Guideline: 6 Years and Up
  • Time Required: 15 minutes (Does not include drying time)

The above age and time guidelines are estimates. This project can be modified to suit other ages and may take more or less time depending on your circumstances.

 

Materials Needed:

  • Pen
  • Silk or Plastic Flower with Stem
  • Green Floral Tape
  • Scissors

Instructions:
Hold the flower next to the pen and clip the flower stem so it is about 2-inches up from the tip of the pen. The flower should sit on the end of the pen. Remove and leaves. While holding the flower stem tightly against the pen, wrap the entire length of the pen with floral tape. This will secure the pen and flower together. With the floral tape you do not need tape or glue!
