Felt Flower Pens

Hey everyone!!

So we started to dabble in other crafts besides working with paper. I (baby sister) made felt flower pens for a FLOWER SHOWER! A friend of ours referred this customer to us asking if we can help her make fun statement items for the bridal shower that she was throwing for her sister. We suggested FLOWER PENS because they were great to use for games that she had planned, and they served double as a party favor!

We were asked if we could use the fatter blue pens (customer provided these, since we use the BIC pen) because her sister likes these pens in particular.

We like to make sure that the grip on the pen was not covered because the grip is there for a reason! So why would we cover it . . . we like the purpose of the grip, so we leave it so that it can serve its purpose!

Here is a wonderful shot of the pens that the customer let us use, she placed it in a couple of jars on the table to be the token centerpieces (HEY! a 3rd purpose!) and to be within arms reach to all the guests.

We use various colors so that her guests can pick the colors that they want to take home with them. Check out our Etsy Store to see a listing of the colors that we can make. Or if there is a color that you want, let us know! and we can work with our vendor to see if we can get it! Just imagine what wonderful memories/ photos you will have with these pens in everyone's hand! We can do bulk orders!

Customized Banner

Recently, we were asked to create a banner for a couple who were getting married. The wedding colors itself were silver & yellow, and they were an Asian couple, so we went for the yellow & red, since they are traditional "lucky" colors.

The specifications that were given to us were to "please don't make a rectangular banner." We obliged.  And we were told "please keep in mind it will be for a car" . . . we remembered this . . . and this was the outcome:

 

We used these customized alphabet letters in 9inches and made 10-11inch ovals to make the backing for the letters. We were also asked if we can laminate the banner, which we said we could . . . and we did!

Both, we and the couple, loved it and doesn't it look wonderful on the car!
