Progress: Pens can be really boring sometimes... but wait, now you create your very own fashionable pens! It may take a couple of tries, but the results are spectacular! This week, I decided to make one fashionable pen, due to short supply of gel pens. Supplies
![]() Step 1:
Reflection: I found this project to be quite interesting. I've actually never thought about doing this sort of project. When deciding what to do, I decided to make this because in my head it looked super easy and quick. Unfortunately, that is not what exactly happened. The thing with this DIY is that it takes precision and preciseness to get it right. As stated in Step #2, the piece of paper must be rolled. The catch is that the paper must be rolled up extremely small because if it's too big, it won't fit into the pen case. My first try came out to be a disaster because once I got to the end of inserting it back in, the top would jumble up and not allow the rest of the ink cartage to go back in. After approximately three attempts, I finally went through the complete process. It might of have taken me more time than I thought it was going to take, but in the end I really loved how it turned out.
The paper strips can be any pattern or even possibly a photograph of somebody or yourself. It won't be quite visible, but it is completely up to you. That is exactly how one's creativity is opened and expanded. When choosing or drawing the design, one's creativity comes out and is represented in the pattern or image they chose/drew to use. Which is why I chose to create this fashionable pen for this blog update. All in all, I would have to say this DIY project came out to be quite a success! :)
