Colortime Crafts & Markers make it a special time! {Review + Giveaway)

Creating personalized keepsakes can be time-consuming, budget-draining, and very messy. Sure you can put paint on t-shirts but that can take days to dry and you could iron appliques on tote bags but it's not very personable.

With Colortime Crafts & Markers, your kids could make t-shirts their own way or color tote bags just the way they want! Colortime gives customers the chance to color and decorate their own t-shirts, pillowcases, backpacks, tote bags, bandanas, and more for parties, slumber parties, and scout meetings with permanent fabric markers.

Girls (big and small!) can show off their girlie side with t-shirts like the Circle of Friends t-shirt or Girls Rock pillowcase! Boys can show they like monster trucks with a Monster Trucks t-shirt and they can even a cowboy with a Wild West Backpack!

Colortime Crafts & Markers also offers Holiday items (including backpacks and totes) as well including 4th of July, Christmas, and many other Holidays. If your child is in the Scouts or know a family who is part of the organization, they have totes, backpacks, and t-shirts that great for indoor activities!

So get some Colortime Crafts & Markers ready for that Holiday vacation and let your children's creative colors fly!

WHAT I THOUGHT
I am always on the look out for new products that help combat boredom but also help my cousins' babies(who I babysit frequently) from destroying everything around them. When I heard about Colortime, I couldn't wait to try it out!

I received a Recycle tote bag as well as a blue, green, and yellow marker. The tote bag quality seems to be very durable, which will come in handy the next time I have to go to the library. As I started coloring, I noticed a faint odor from the marker, but luckily it wasn't enough to give me a headache. The color is nice and rich, and true to the color on the marker. It was easy to use and color with. The marker had nice even strokes, which is a sign of a quality marker.

I didn't have a paper towel (which was on the instructions to put inside the tote) but I did have a small enough cardboard box which I slipped inside the tote. The tote bag is very porous, but the markers will bleed through so be sure to have something inside the tote bag (or whichever item you get) so that it doesn't destroy the other side. I'll be honest- I felt like a kid when I colored the bag.

I think I'll pick up some more for gifts for next year or when I babysit again.
