Creative DIY Projects You Can Do with Pentel Markers and Pens

Have you ever had one of those lazy Sunday afternoons where you just want to create something? That’s how I feel when I get my hands on a set of Pentel pens and markers. There’s something so satisfying about turning simple stationery into beautiful, personalised projects. I love finding creative ways to use these pens, and I wanted to share a few of my favourite DIY ideas that you can try at home.

1. Personalized Notebooks

One of my go-to projects is decorating plain notebooks. All you need is a blank notebook and some Pentel markers and pens—like the Pentel EnerGel Pens or Pentel Brush Pens. I love using brush pens for adding hand-lettered quotes or doodles to the cover. You can also use metallic pens to add some shimmer and give the notebook a personalised touch.

2. DIY Greeting Cards

Whenever a friend’s birthday is coming up, I like to make my own cards. It’s so much more personal than buying one from the store, and it’s a fun way to get creative. I usually use the Pentel Brush Pens for the main design and lettering. You can play with different colours, add floral designs, or even use stencils for more precision.

3. Decorative Gift Tags

If you’ve ever wrapped a present and felt like it needed a little something extra, try making your own gift tags. Using Pentel Permanent Markers and Pentel Hybrid Dual Metallic Pens, you can create eye-catching, glittery tags. These markers are perfect for adding that touch of elegance and sparkle that really makes a gift stand out.

4. DIY Wall Art

For something bigger, I love creating simple wall art using Pentel Permanent Markers. Choose your favourite quote or image, sketch it out lightly in pencil, and then use the permanent markers to bring it to life. It’s a great way to add a personal touch to any room in your house, and the bold colours of the markers make the designs pop.

Creating with Pentel pens and markers isn’t just about making something beautiful—it’s about enjoying the process. I’ve found that these DIY projects help me relax and get into a creative flow. It’s easy to get lost in the colours and designs, and before you know it, you’ve created something that’s uniquely yours.
