Now attach the tip of the pen. Attach it to the inside with glue and then glue the pen together.

Then add the black triangles to the front of the tip.

Take the white strip and stick it to the top of the pen.

Now move on to the red lid. Gradually glue the individual sides together to form the lid of the school cone.

Now you can design the colourful part. Take your STAEDTLER 185 coloured pencils and start drawing. It's entirely up to you how you design your numbers and letters.
