Flower Pens 
An easy to assemble springtime project 

Great for class projects, scouts,
 birthday party crafts or gifts.

• silk flowers
• ball point pens
• florist tape - green or brown
• scissors
• hot glue gun (adult supervision suggested)

1. clip the flowers so that there is about 1-2 inches of stem
2. put a dot of hot glue on one side of the pen, near the top
3. press the flower's stem into the hot glue and hold in place for about 5 seconds, or until set
4. set aside to dry for about 1 minute (work on other pens during this time)
5. starting at the top of the pen, wrap the pen with florist tape about half way down
6. place the 'flowers' in a little vase or container to display
