Step-by-step

Step 1
For our example we used the edding gloss paint marker in pastel rose (colour code 138), although a combination of different pastels can also look attractive.

Step 2
Before using a gloss paint marker, you need to activate it: Shake the marker vigorously with the cap still on. Remove the cap, place the nib on absorbent paper and pump it up and down a few times until ink appears in the nib. Now you’re ready to get started. (And don’t forget to always store the marker horizontally after use.)

Step 3
Using the gloss paint marker, decorate your soap dispenser with stars and graphic patterns any way you want. If the ink runs dry, pump the nib gently as described above until the ink flows again. If you want to use several colours, always let one colour dry briefly before continuing with the next.
