Feather Pen

Hello, Here's is another quick project to do in minutes, we all have pens laying around our homes. some have the tops and some don't, well alot of ours have been cracked due to someone standing or stepping on them, or sitting something heavy on the pen, and well alot of these are some pens that have been bought at the 99cent stores. alot of them my kids tke apart and we don't throw away anything if we can re-use or remake it with something else. and this is something we made with my daughters beads and a pack of feathers we had from another project. you will need some hot glue or any plastic/metal glue you can find at michaels or wal-mart.   and ofcourse a pen with the outside taken off, add your beads down the pen section as many as needed, I think we used 10 or 12 beads. have to count for sure. add them on, in any color you like, add alittle glue to every other bead to make sure it stays, once your at the end, add your feathers and sit aside to dry. and this is what you will end up with. Enjoy!!!

                  

Pen Makeover

Another craft past time gone by and of course we all have those pens laying around, sometimes we have way tomany pens, and besides taking them apart and using them for numerous things, one thing I love to d is remake a pen for myself to use and carry around with me. and with something you already have at home or can find very cheap at any store is nail polish, any kind will do, I use the very cheapest I can find. you canuse it for many things besides decorating your nails, and here is a cute thing to do with those pens when your just tired of the pen you carry around in your purse or on your check book, give those pens a new look! This pen was a clear pen, and I added several coats(8) let dry in between coats and it has a little bit of glitter to it. but this is my own new decked out pen, you can deck pens out with nail decorations if you like,my daughter has one for her own. you can use stickers on them and cover with clear sealer(varnish) and your set to go. make a few, give a few, keep a few. grab some pens and get to painting!
