Colortime Crafts & Markers Review & Giveaway! (closed)


Check it out!  As a crafter I have bought so many different brands of markers, both for paper and fabric.  But I love fabric markers, because I love to create gifts and projects from fabric, whether it's a t-shirt or bag.  Not too long ago, I got the opportunity to try out Colortime markers, along with a super cool colorable pillowcase and I am in love with these markers!


Victoria took over and got right to putting those markers to work.  First we put some newspaper inside the pillowcase so there would be no bleed through, then it was creative time!  These markers are awesome!! Not only are they easy to hold but they are bold!  There was no drying out after a minute or two, like I have found with many other fabric markers.  There is no globbing of the color either.  What is super awesome is they dry quickly and they do not need to be heat set!  As soon as it's dry to the touch, you can wear/use your creation!  I always hate those paints that take hours to dry so the kids have to wait... and whose kid likes to wait?  Yeah, not mine!
At first we were a little disappointed that there were only 3 markers, but Victoria quickly figured out that she could make new colors.  I also love that these markers are not messy!!  That's another huge selling point for me, mess free!  Markers wash right off the skin.


So here is Victoria's creation!  What I really love about this is that she can continue to add on with her own designs. And the whole back side is plain...perfect for a name:


Here is the back of her pillowcase.  She even has room for more drawing and doodling.  
We have done similar crafts in the past and they looked great until they were used.  Waking up the next morning with ink all over the face and a smeared pillow, not fun!  Not with Colortime markers.  They are even chlorine resistant.
