Default Aimee's Glitter Pens

I just wanted to share one of my current favorite projects. I started making these and just handing them out as gifts, now I am getting all kinds of special requests and I will be selling them at an upcoming craft fair.

I used 1/2" wide Terrifically Tacky Tape to wrap around the ink cartridge, rolled it in glitter, then screwed the pen back together. The cap is accented with a bow, secured by a small piece of Sticky Strip. Very Easy - Very cute!

Thanks for looking!

Aimee, these pens are lovely! Just right for girly gifts for my 15 year old's friends and so easy too. Thanks so much for sharing!

Hi Aimee
I love the pens! Do you have to cut the tape at all? Is it out on lengthwise?

Thanks I cant wait to try these!
