If you have kids at home, there probably has been a time where they got some magic markers on the wall. The best thing I found was to build a large whiteboard that the kids could draw on freely, but hindsight is twenty-twenty. There were many times that I struggled with getting the maker off of the walls. I recently found this awesome video tutorial by House Keeper, on YouTube, I was so excited to see that all was not lost and that there was a couple of ways to get the permanent marker off of the walls. This is a 2 step method, but they are all simple steps, remember, you are dealing with a permanent marker, it is not a simple stain.

Materials To Clean Permanent Marker From Walls:

Method One:

  • A Can Of Hairspray ( you want something like old-school Aqaunet)
  • Cotton Balls

Method Two:

  • Nail Polish Remover
  • Cotton Balls

Then, you will spray the hairspray straight onto the wall, and wipe it down with a cotton ball. Repeat this process until the wall is clean.

Since I lover experiments, Iโ€™ve alwaysnloved to create, paint, as well as cook and style food. I feel in love with DIY as soon as I discovered it and could not have been more excited when I learned I could share projects with people around the world. Taking photos is a passion of mine, as is design and painting with oils. I love holidays and celebrations, crafting cute little gifts and serving up at least one new recipe I am excited about.
