These Sharpie pen crafts are perfect for the kitchen from crockery mugs to kitchen decor. All of these handmade crafts use Sharpie pens to create inexpensive DIY decor for your kitchen. Use store-bought plates and bowls to create hand-designed crockery. white plates and mugs can be bought in any discount store or online. Add a sharpie and add some style to your kitchen decor.
So which sharpie pen should you use for which surface and how do you make it stick to that surface? Here are my top tips for using Sharpie pens in DIY Crafts.
Fabric
Sharpies require heat to set them into the fabric. Either place the item in the dryer for 15 – 20 minutes on high heat or use an iron. The iron should be on the highest setting; iron for five minutes on both sides with the steam turned off. The key is heat. I always use some baking paper or freezer paper between the design and my iron to protect my iron.
Sharpie does make fade-resistant fabric markers 
Ceramic
I 100% prefer an oil-based sharpie
Metal and Glass
Use a can of clear acrylic sealer
Plastic
Plastic is shiny and hard for a pen to grab onto it. You can make the surface more “grabbable” by Sanding it with 120-grit sandpaper
