Homemakers Craft Flower Pens For Molino Park Teachers

October 2, 2011

The Molino Homemakers made flower pens at a recent meeting to present to the teachers at Molino Park Elementary School.

Club member Terri Brown explains how to make your own flower pens as demonstrated by club member Frances Cheney:

  • Depending on how many pens you would like to make will determine how many bouquets of flowers to buy.
  • Ink pens and green floral tape will also be needed.
  • Cut the tops of the flowers off leaving about 3 inches of stem below the flower.
  • Approximately nine inches of floral tape will be used to wrap the flowers to the pen.
  • Starting at the top, place flower against the pen and start wrapping the stem with floral tap until the stem is covered.

The Molino Homemakers meet on the first Wednesday of each month  at 10 a.m. at Aldersgate United Methodist Church in Molino. The next meeting will be October 5 . Visitors are welcome; dues are $5 per year.
