Step-by-step

Step 1
edding permanent markers come in a wide range of vibrant shades. All you need to do is pick your favourites!

Step 2
Start by using a permanent marker to draw out the floor plan of your new home on your sheet of paper. Make sure you include every individual room so that your boxes can be delivered to exactly the right destination later on.

Step 3
Next, simply use your permanent markers to shade each room (use a different colour for each one). If you like, you could even add a little message to your floor plan such as "Thanks a lot" or "Thanks a ton".

Step 4
Mark each box with the relevant colour on your floor plan to make sure that they all end up in the right room.

Step 5
Once everything is packed up, stick your floor plan to one of the boxes so it doesn’t get lost.
