Fast and Easy flower pens make a wonderful gift and pretty package decorations.
Total Time: 20mins
Supplies:
- 2 bunches silk flowers ($2.00)
- 1 pack black or blue pens ($1.00)
- 1 pack floral tape ($1.00)
- 1 pair wire cutter ($0)
Steps:
- Push leaves as close to flowers as you can get without pushing the flower off the stem, (voice of experience speaking here).
- Cut stem about 2 inches long.
- With top of pen facing up place flower next to it. You stretch the tape as you wrap it around and it sticks to itself. Wrap around top twice.
- Work your way down the stem overlapping a little.
- Wrap 1/4 inch at bottom, below stem, wrapping around stem 3 times. That way it will not poke through. Rip off tape when done.
- There you go, a beautiful and useful bouquet, never lose a pen, give as gifts, or decorate your next gift with it!
