Puffy Velvet Fabric Markers

USE FOR: Drawing & decorating 3 dimensional designs.
USE ON: Fabrics including T-shirts, canvas bags, canvas shoes, denim and even paper.

If you like adding texture and dimension to your garments and projects, these Puffy Velvet Markers might just be the ticket. When painted/drawn into a porous surface, like fabric, and then heated, the marker paint puffs up to a 'velvety' texture. The paint remains soft and 'fuzzy', and stands up to washing in a regular washing machine (though we would recommend hand washing to increase the longevity of your design).

An adult should do the "puffing" with the heat gun, but these markers are a lot of fun for kids and a great activity for parties. They can decorate their own t-shirts, bandannas, hats, totes, whatever, let them dry, and watch in awe the "magic" as their designs puff up under the heat gun. Way cool!

If you like adding texture and dimension to your garments and projects, these Puffy Velvet Markers might be just the ticket.

The paint remains soft and "fuzzy", and stands up to washing in a regular washing machine (though we would recommend hand washing to increase the longevity of your design).

Puffy Velvet is the only fabric marker that puffs up after you heat it with a heat tool. It is great for t-shirts, aprons, canvas totes and denim. Puffy Velvet is also great for paper crafts. Ideal for light and dark fabrics. Super easy to use, free hand or with a template.

Please note, the paint needs to get pretty hot to do its thing and our home hair-dryer did not work. A heat gun is the best tool for the job.

These are so much fun. They write well on fabric. The colors look great and it puffed up pretty well. Some small areas did not get as puffy but I think that may be because I did not apply enough heat. Looked fine after washing too!

Not as impressive as I had hoped, although perhaps the new iron was not as consistently heating either, practice makes better results, and still a fun impliment.

not as impress I use them for my craft projects. So, I'm not sure why certain colors work on cardstock and others don't. Will look for another brand.
