i use sharpies alot! they're great. i find them the best for school clothes as the labels always fall off. also great for water bottles/lunch boxes. and they now come in tons of colours!

so do you write names on school clothes with sharpie pen? on labels?

they do wear off eventually but it's easier than keep sewing on new tapes

I just use a normal permanent marker

what is a sharpie pen?

nailpolish · 21/06/2007 15:26

its even better than a permanent marker, comes in every colour imaginable, and writes on absolutely everything
