Green Craft | Rejuvenate Dried Up Markers

I stumbled across this tip at Stubby Pencil Studios… breathe life back into dried out water based markers by dipping them in water! I had a bag full of dried out markers I hadn’t quite found another use for, so gave it a go. The method I used was :
- • Put just enough water in the bottom of a container cover the tips of the markers (In hindsight, tall glasses would have worked better as they won’t tip!)
- • Dip the marker tip in and leave it for a few minutes.
- • Remove from marker and put the cap back on. I only waited a few more minutes before testing them out, and they worked wonderfully.
Not sure how many times this trick will work, but my daughter was pleased having a dozen old markers back into the fold and has been colouring up a storm! (And for those curious, the coloured water from runoff ink was too watered down to reuse as paint.)
