Hello, I mentioned whilst in the US I bought a stack of Sharpies.
When I arrived home I found a small set of Stained Sharpies in our local Office Works. These are designed to colour fabric...how could I resist!
I had a small piece of Homespun fabric sitting around so started playing. I used the markers to draw around star shapes, filling the shapes with colour. A simple colouring job, nothing too fancy. These Stained Sharpies are almost fluorescent (quite bright). I added dots and a striped border before carefully ironing to set the colours. I put some scrap paper over the inked area just incase the colour transferred. It didn't.
The piece was sitting on my desk for a few days so I thought to use it in a zipped bag, big enough to carry all my Sharpies. A quick, easy project adding some leather tabs as well as a small timber star.
Now all my Sharpies are together and stored as recommended 'in a horizontal position'.
Didn't wash the piece but don't expect any problems.
Thanks for dropping by, till next time.......
