Wanna' Try Something Just for Fun??

If you're ever bored and have a lot of time on your hands, try this for fun. Take a batch of laundry and put it in the wash. Add your soap just like normal and then take 2 or 3 colored markers, remove the lids, and throw them in the wash. When done washing, remove clothing and markers and put in the dryer. Turn it on and take a break. When the dryer is done, remove the clothing. After removing the dry clothes you will find a beautiful (depending on the color of markers you used) design left inside your dryer. There will be beautiful swirls of colors inside the drum and lots of pretty scribbles near the lint tray. Now comes the fun part. Take your basket of freshly "clean" clothes and find a nice comfy chair...oh...don't forget to grab the Spray-n-Wash. Now you get to search for all of the amazing designs that were left all over the clothes, mostly it will make interesting polk-a-dots. Grab that Spray-n-Wash and have yourself a little squirt and scrub party!! When you're all done, repeat the wash and dry, but this time leave out the markers...and don't forget to PRAY that the colors come out!
Needless to say this was how I spent part of my afternoon. However I did it not knowing that the markers had sneaked their way into the wash.
Don't you just Love laundry with little kids?

Oh Kirstin!! That is such a sad story...but you tell it in a way that makes me giggle.

How does Spray and Wash work with markers that have made it through the dryer?

Trishelle, the spray and wash works because she prayed that it would.

Alyssa and I will promptly try that this afternoon. It sounds like fun and we will at least be doing our laundry!
