Products are becoming more and more eco-friendly; take the Paper Pen, for example. A simple piece of stationary, it was handmade using a single page of used A4 paper wrapped around an ink cartridge for easy grip and a cool look.
Cleverly created by designer Tauras Stalnionis, the Paper Pen is energy- and resource-efficient. More than that, however, each one is completely unique from the next because of the different paper patterns used and the way each has been rolled.
The Paper Pen is completely recyclable as well, except for the ink cartridge, of course. Although priced at an affordable 4 euros (about $5.85), it might just inspire you to create your own. If anything, the Paper Pen would make a fun craft project.
