DIY Guest Book Pen

 

I love Etsy! Unfortunately I have only bought through Etsy a few times… Dental school isn’t cheap! When you are on a budget some many things you have to make yourself – especially when it comes to a budget wedding. Good thing shabby chic and DIY weddings are totally in!

This DIY Guest Book Pen was so beautiful and easy to make I decided to make two of them for our wedding. Plus, it is always good to have a backup just in case the first one stops working or if two people decide to sign at the same time.

 

DIY Pen for your Guest Book

 

This DIY Guest Book Pen is simple to make, inexpensive, and will look absolutely darling at your wedding! Did I mention I still use mine? 

 

What you’ll need:

Pens – my pens came in a set probably from Joann or Hobby Lobby

Twine

Hot Glue Gun with Glue

Scissors

Flower – I think I bought my flower at Joann

Button 

Needle – optional

Thread – optional

 

First, wrap the twine around your pen starting at the bottom and working your way up – glueing as you go.

Next, attach the button to the middle of the flower. I did this with a needle and thread but you could always just hot glue it in place.

 

DIY Wedding Guest Book Pen

 

Hot glue the flower to the top of your pen, let dry, and repeat as you see fit – and I would definitely recommend making at least 2 DIY Guest Book Pens!
