Glue them together into a pen holder, I've seen people doing that with pencils and crayons, so why not do it with pens... Just make sure you can see the difference between the pen holder and the actual pens for example by painting the used pens in a bright color first. (or just put something else in the pen holder...)

I've always had this crazy dream of making a layered skirt out of pens tied to a belt/waistband and some tule but that's just my brain being weird.

Sanne D. has a good idea, you could also make boxes if you had some hinges around. Look around and you're bound to find some ideas.

pen ....take the tube of the pen and fill it with glitter. It wll help you from spoiling your work. block the top of the pen with glue gun and when the glue is still hot make a hole with a toothpick then you can shake it and use it (I'm making a tutorial for this so make sure you're the first one to fave Tongue )

This is such a great question Fathima! I too have so many used pens, but I don't have the heart to throw them away because it is such a waste! I love the ideas you guys have come up with! I was thinking a model of a Medieval Castle. Lol

Probably not the most practical item, but you can use the empty plastic tube of a ballpoint pen and make a pretty outstanding crossbow.
