Recycle Old Markers into Watercolor

A great recycling project - pull the insides out of old markers (a set of pliers is a good tool here) and group by color in jars. Add water and let sit overnight - enjoy beautiful liquid watercolors.

    Fabulous! Thanks for the tip. I'm always tossing markers that have smashed or bitten-off tips, but plenty of ink left.

    Love this tip!--recycling and art--a favorite combination of ours. We will try it out at our house very soon.

    Excellent post! It's good to know that during the young age, teachers enhance their students to become artistic and creative.
