Looking for colored permanent markers

[kyra's mommy]

Hi All,

I love the pillow case idea... found it once on this board. You have the characters sign a white pillow case. Anyway, we did that once but the black marker doesn't go with dd's very princess bedroom of pink and green. So, this time, since we loved doing it, I'd like to try again but with colored permanent markers. Do they exist? If so, do you know the brand or how to buy them?

Thanks!!!

Sharpie!! We just bought a multi-pack of colored permanent markers that click instead of having to remove the caps. They were around $7 or $8, but you may be able to find them a little cheaper with all the school sales going on. Even at that cost, I know Sharpies are very reliable & long-lasting and worth the little extra cost. I've read that the characters really like the clickable markers too!

Hope that helps! Cute idea!

I second the Sharpies! - and make sure you "set" the color in a hot dryer before washing, or some may run a bit. (The light blue did this to us before someone told me that trick.)

Will the Sharpie ink stay after washing the pillow? Thanks for the reply!!

Oh! Yeh! So, just put in the dryer first and after that it stays! I'm excited, thank you both!!

I just bought a pack of Fabric markers at Michaels for $5 for a 6 pack (w/ coupon).
