These are easy and fun to make, don’t get lost easily (a big plus for those who tend to lose things) and make great gifts. 

 What you’ll need:

Silk Flowers

Wire Cutters

Floral Tape

Pens

• Cut the silk flowers apart if necessary, with the wire cutters, leaving approximately 3 inches of stem per flower. 
• Secure the stem of the flower to the end of the pen with tape , so that the flower rests on the non-writing end.
• Wrap the green floral tape around the pen, overlapping each revolution so no part of the pen shows through.  Starting at the top and work your way to the writing end.
• Enjoy!
