Markers

What are markers?

Markers are versatile colouring tools that provide bold, vibrant colour with smooth application. They are popular for drawing, lettering, illustration, and decoration, thanks to their ease of use and wide variety of finishes. Depending on the type, markers can be permanent, blendable, or even suitable for fabrics, making them an essential tool for many creative projects.

Different types of markers

At Vaessen Creative, markers are part of the drawing and writing supplies collection. You can choose from a wide range of types:

• Acrylic markers are filled with opaque paint-like ink, ideal for use on many surfaces such as paper, canvas, wood, and even glass.
• Alcohol markers are blendable and highly pigmented, perfect for illustrations, shading, and colouring techniques with smooth gradients.
• Permanent markers work on almost any surface, from plastic to cardboard, and are known for their durability and long-lasting colour.
• Fabric markers allow you to decorate textiles like T-shirts, bags, and cushions with designs that remain washable and vibrant.

Each type of marker offers unique effects, giving you the flexibility to adapt them to your style and chosen surface.

Creative hobbies & projects with markers

Markers are useful in a wide range of hobbies. In flower crafting, alcohol markers can be used to add colourful details and shading to handmade floral designs. In Christmas crafting, acrylic markers are perfect for drawing on ornaments, cards, or festive gift tags. Another inspiring idea is in crafting with children, where fabric markers can be used to customise T-shirts, bags, or aprons with playful and personal designs. With markers, you can experiment on both paper and beyond.

Why choose markers for your projects?

The main advantage of markers is their variety and ease of use. Each type of marker has its own strengths, whether you want smooth blending, opaque coverage, or designs that last on fabric. They are quick-drying, portable, and available in a wide range of colours, making them practical for both small and large projects. Whether you are creating artwork, decorations, or personalised gifts, markers give you endless creative options.
