Magicdo dual tip markers

My girls were eyeing these markers as soon as they came in but I quickly told them they are going to be used for my new planner that starts in August 2017. I know I will end up letting them use them at some point but I want to get my play time in first.

These Magicdo dual tip markers are like a paint brush tip on one side with a fine tip on the other side so you can change up the way you want to draw, color, or design your masterpiece.

My main reason for using them is to keep our family organized by color coding our calendar for the next year. Organization is key to keeping everyone moving in the right direction and on time. There are so many things in life that are out of our control it is nice to be able to look at a planner and see what you can control all laid out for you in an easy to read format.

For my girls these would be used for drawing and creating things. I might have to sit down and color a bit with these with them for a little together time on a rainy day or while we are waiting for an appointment to start.

My beloved Dandelion is retiring

So here we are at a crossroads you know where we choose to love or hate what has come to be. One of my beloved Crayola Crayon Colors is being retired. Good OLD DEPENDABLE Dandelion. The color that I used for the bright sun in many pictures I drew and of course the color I chose when coloring little children's hair or even other flowers not just Dandelions. I sure hope Crayola knows they are loosing a good one, one that brought light and happiness to many a person.

So with that being said I have decided that Dandelion should go on bottles of Dandelion Wine for his retirement tour, so that us who are older and will miss Dandelion the most can raise our glasses one more time to a Crayon that served his people well. Bon Voyage my friend you will be missed and hope you leave behind a color that will brighten up everyday like you did.

AmazaPens

Finally coloring pens for adults to use. OK kids can use them too, but I am leaning towards adults here using these for scrapbooking, drawing, using in planners, cards, letters (yes people still write letters), coloring in Adult coloring books, etc.

These are great pens. Lots of colors 24 to be exact, super fine tip for great intricate work. Bright, bold colors that will last quite a while.
I haven't worn my out yet so that is a good sign.

Mine are used for Adult Coloring Books, and my planner. I love color and these fit the bill for my needs. The best part besides the pens themselves is the nice storing container to keep them all in one place.


You can find these coloring pens on Amazon.
