My review:
For my review I received a Recycle bag with 3 of their quick-drying permanent fabric markers. Our 4 year old daughter and I colored the bag together. It recommended placing a paper towel inside the bag so the marker wouldn’t go through, but since we are a “reusable” family we don’t usually have paper towels. Instead I used 2 pieces of scrap paper, and that worked perfectly! The markers really color on the fabric smoothly and nicely. Aurora and I both tend to put the side of our hands down when we color, so we both ended up with quite a bit of marker on our hands! Although the colors stay very well (and surprisingly bright) on the fabric, it washed right off our hands with a little soap and water! I love that you can not only color on the project, but you can also add your own flare. Aurora wanted to write our names and draw a little picture as well! I also marked a dot on the map where we live. She and I both had a lot of fun with it! I would definitely recommend using one color at a time and letting the previous color dry a little before going to the next color. The markers dry on the fabric rather quickly, so it isn’t a long wait! One thing to remember is that these are permanent markers – not to be confused with the idea that the marker will wash off. As I mentioned it stays surprisingly vibrant after wash. This tote bag is sturdy and perfect for carrying our schoolwork or even as a reusable grocery tote!
ColorTime Crafts offers a variety of products you can do together as a group, family, or individually! This was a great art project for us for homeschooling! They also offer free coloring sheets on their website I plan to use for future art projects! This project was quick. easy, and fun – and enjoyable! It was also a very useful project as now we have a bag we can use for a different purposes!
