Let your doodles do the talking with a fun and simple summer Doodle Flip Flops DIY using the Bic Mark-it Metallic Markers!
Bic asked me to share these awesome Bic Mark-it Metallic Permanent Markers with you. At first I wasn’t too sure about what kind of fashion related project I could do with them. They work best on a porous surface, they aren’t great on fabric as they tend to bleed. So after a bit of brainstorming it hit me like a ton of rubber flip flops!
They dry really quickly! As I was working I didn’t have to worry about them smearing with my hand. Which is great cause I’m a lefty and that happens all the time!
They sent me an assortment of metallic colors which are really fun! The silver a gold are really classic, but I was surprised at how well the other colors show up. They’re really pretty.
I also used them in my sketchbook. Since I wanted to do doodles on my flip flops I had to get my inspiration just right.
I painted my sketchbook pages with acrylic paint first and then drew on top to get a better idea of how the colors would look.
The Bic Mark-it Metallic Permanent Marker eight pack are only available at Target, but you can also find other colors at Target and most any store that carries pens and online. I love all the other colors they have too! There’s a lot of possibilities with these Bic Mark-it markers, lets get creative!
This is a sponsored post. Bic sent me these markers to review and share with you.
Did you seal them afterwards? Did the Bic marker last after wearing them?
These are absolutely adorable! Thank you for sharing this idea.
I’m planning to do this at a birthday party, and I want to make sure the kids don’t track permanent marker footprints into their homes afterwards … Can you comment on how these flip flop patterns held up over time? After the patterns dried, did the market transfer onto feet when worn?
