How to Make a Ballpoint Quill Pen


As a writer, I love any tool that makes my world feel a little more fantastic. That's why I make these feathered ballpoint pens that mimic the style of an old fashioned quill pen. I also sell these at my fairy festival booth for $1.00 each! Here's how to make your own...


You will need: feathers (I love pheasant for this project), ballpoint pens, hemp string, and superglue.


Line up the feather with the top of the pen...


Tie the pen and feather together at the top and wrap the string around.



Finally, glue the loose ends flat to the tip of the pen without touching the balpoint.
