So, I was finally going to post some recent pics and lo and behold I can't find our camera. There are a lot of people around here, so hopefully someone will know where it is. Until then, I've decided to post little home remedies, in lieu of "mothering naturally". Most of them will probably be as I use them, so I'll let you know how they work! The first remedy is inspired by the "creative nature" of my two older boys. They found permanent markers the other day and thought it would be a great idea to color all over my mothers antique trunk in the family room...luckily, a few days previous, my mother was telling a story of when I got a hold of a permanent marker and colored all over a wall right before we were moving...and so I simply used the same remover she said worked when I was 2...
Remedy #1:
Hair Spray! Spray the hair spray(any brand should work) on the marker and rub off with a slightly damp cloth. You may still have to do some rubbing, but I was able to get it all off. Pfew!
Be aware that if you are cleaning it off a wall, it will start running, so you'll want something to protect the floor, especially if there is carpet!
