Unfortunately, you have to post a minimum of 100 posts before you can open links/attachments. But it's pretty easy to do even without the link. Go to Staples and look for pens with a clear tube that the end can be unscrewed from. Then once you are home, take a piece of paper and figure out what size will fit. Now you have the dimensions, simply use Word (for example) and create a text box that size. (Use the ruler on the edges to help) Once you have that figured out put in your name, date, photo, symbol, etc. into the text box. Print out, cut, and then put into the pen tube! Hope that helps! It is a great DIY project.

So then one day, in another attempt to search online for inexpensive personalized pens, I found a DIY personalized pen project!! I was SO excited! So I tried it and here's what I came up with:
