Firstly, take and remove the internal ink cartridge reservoir from your pen and
unscrew the pen nib or point. Now take the hollow pen shell (looks like a thick
drinking straw) and insert a flower stem into it. Now put the pen shell with
flower stem in a vase of water. Your flowers can still absorb water through the
bottom of the pen and this will also prevent your flower stems from breaking in
half or bending over. Also, this works great if your flower stems are too short
and you need to 'lengthen' them to fit nicely in a vase. |

Decorate a picture frame with them by hot gluing them on. Makes a nice gift
for a writer, or anyone who uses a lot of pens. |

I usually hang onto a few dried up pens for future painting projects. I never
seem to be able to find the stir sticks from the hardware store when I need
them! I use the pens to stir up smaller cans of paint or varnish. I then throw
out the pens when I'm done with the mixing. |

I use spent ball point pens to make holes in a pot to insert bulbs, seeds, or
even samll plants. You can also areate the soil but be careful not to damage
the plants roots. |

I search out pretty pens. I take out the ink cartridge and such. Then I cut
the barrel into whatever size pieces that I need (1/2" to 2"). I use
sandpaper to smooth the edges of the cut pieces. Then I use the pieces as beads
for making homemade jewelry, etc. |
