Permanent Marker Remover
"Found this online after my kids were coloring with a permanent marker and it bled through onto my new kitchen table. Worked wonders! I have used this since with the same results after my 1 yr. old marked on my desk. The permanent markers are now kept out of reach.....unless of course he stacks things up and climbs onto them as he has been doing lately...
Cooking time is setting time."

This worked pretty well....on the newer marks it worked better than on the ones that have been there for a while! Thanks for posting a very helpful hint! -
Awesome! I think mine were really old because it took a lot of elbow grease but it's the only thing I ever tried that worked. Thanks for this tip Elaine May. Recommended by lazyme -
My son draw on his desk in his bedroom. It was made a few months ago. I tried it and I was able to remove it. Thanks ElanieMay :) -
I was so skeptical because the permanent marker was on a worn kitchen table with not much veneer but it worked wonders and I now have a kitchen table without orange marks on it! You are right that it did take a few applications and a bit of muscle but it is well worth it to not have those marks!! Thanks so much for a great trick! Made for your win in Tag Tic Tac Toe -
Yay! This worked really well. Two of my grand daughters were 'decorating rocks' and other things :roll:. Got some permanent marker and blue paint on tables and on some tiles in the bathroom. I tried this on both areas and it worked! It didn't get the blue paint off of the walls... but helped lighten it a bit. Thanks Elainiemay for a handy recipe. Made for 123 Tag.

My Family and I moved to South Africa at the beginning of 2007 to be missionaries. My Husband is the Pastor of a church in Eden Park, a township in the Jo'burg area. We are having a great time. My kids love it (3 of them, 1 born here). We have got to do many exciting things( pet lion cubs, feed giraffes, eat Zebra(gross!)and other meats(Warthog was surprisingly the best, go figure) and swim on a beach with penguins, to name a few). I have always loved to bake but just got into cooking since moving over here. There were a lot of things I couldn't find over here(and still can't) that we were wanting so I started searching for good recipes for everything from sausage, salad dressing and root beer,to enchilada sauce, Macayo's baja sauce(posted), and Applebees hot wings!
A fellow missionary turned me on to this site and My husband got me a membership for this last birthday. I am loving it!
