List of Ingredients




Cool Pens

you will need:

ball point pen
multi-color yarn
tacky glue, or low tack glue gun
beads, optional

Using as little glue as possible, place a very thin bead
of glue near the tip of the pen and go up about 1 inch
onto the barrel.
Starting near the tip, wrap the yarn tightly around the
pen without leaving any gaps. Add more glue as you go.
You may change yarn colors, if you wish, but it is much
easier to use a multi-color yarn.
When you reach the end, trim and secure the yarn with
a little dab of glue.
Cut 3, 12 inch pieces of yarn. Knot the pieces together
near one end. Braid and end with another knot. Glue on
end of pen.

Add more braids if you want.
Your can also add pony beads or alphabet beads.

Variation for Scouts
Use number beads to decorate pens with the troop number.
