Floss-Away brand floss bags
Does anyone know what type of pen will actually WRITE on these things?

Sharpie permanent markers will although they might require a minute or
so of drying time. I like the ultra-fine point. Seanette Blaylock wrote: Does anyone know what type of pen will actually WRITE on these things? -- Brenda |

I reuse my Floss-Away bags so I use a dry-erase fine or ultra-fine marker.
This works if you're not fingering the bags too much. "Seanette Blaylock" wrote in message ...

Had you considered putting a small piece of Scotch Magic Tape (the
frosted stuff) on the bag, and then you can write on it with a regular Bic. |

Karen C - California had some very interesting
things to say about Floss-Away brand floss bags: Had you considered putting a small piece of Scotch Magic Tape (the frosted stuff) on the bag, and then you can write on it with a regular Bic. I did manage to unearth a Sharpie marker that did fine (for the Darice brand floss bags, a Vis-a-Vis worked better, but that doesn't work at all on the Floss-Aways). All I need is those two colors of Medici, and I'll have all the fibers for that Nativity (still working on fabric decisions). (BTW, Carla says she's been having computer troubles, but those baby bottle covers should be in soon, which is good, given that the clock is running on those baby gifts.) -- "The universe is quite robust in design and appears to be doing just fine on its own, incompetent support staff notwithstanding. :-)" - the Dennis formerly known as (evil), MCFL |
