Mix It. Shake It. Draw With Your Own Custom Markers.

"This is MY colour." There's something powerful about a kid holding a marker they invented from scratch — labelled with their own name, in a shade nobody else owns. This kit hands them that moment in 15 minutes flat.

Can the markers be refilled?
Yes — barrels are designed to be opened and refilled with new custom colours again and again.
What age is this best for?
Ideal for ages 6-12. Adult supervision recommended during ink mixing to keep things tidy.
