Step 1 of 12

You can really use anything you have on hand. I suggest using a surface cover of some kind. Newspaper or construction paper to catch the blead from the markers.

Step 2 of 12

Draw on your filters. Don't worry about it being perfect its gunna bleed anyway.

You can also use a spray bottle for faster and more even coverage. Then leave to dry. It doesn't take very long at all.

Use them for all kinds of other crafts and projects.

That was adorable - what a neat idea if you are hosting a kid's birthday party. It would give the kids something to do, and also something to take home with them ! Thanks for the idea.
