Pretty Pens?

It came about when Sarah Daffodil ate at a local restaurant. A fake flower taped to a pen was the answer to her chewed-on pen woes.

Granted, the restaurant has flowers taped to their pens so that the pens won't walk off by mistake. Daffodil longed for a solution to having a pen that wouldn't be gnawed on. She quickly discovered that when more than one flower pen is made, it becomes a boquet.

She made a boquet for Main House First Lady Mom for her birthday. This one has a fall look. Since then she has used poinesetta leaves for her Christmas-themed pens.

To make flower pens, you will need:

-fake flowers or other foilage
-pens
-tape
-containter or vase

First, cut stems apart. Now tape a stem onto a pen. Arrange flower pens in a container or a vase.
