8 Count Crayola Crystal Effects Window Markers: What's Inside the Box

My daughter absolutely loves the Crayola Crystal Effects Window Markers.  These markers are different than the regular window markers.  When used they do not show up very well.  After they warm up they crystallize.  I can definitely see why they put Olaf on the front of the box for the newer series.  Though they really should have put Elsa, she was the one that froze things.  Regardless, my daughter loves them.  She loves Frozen and loves these markers.  During the winter they crystallize slower and during the summer they crystallize quicker.  The finished product depends on how the marker is held and how the stroke is applied.  I think they are a little easier to use for kiddos when it is a little colder.  That way they can color more.

8 Count Crayola Window Markers: What's Inside the Box

The Crayola Window Markers came out in 2001 and are still being manufactured. Originally they were packaged in a zippered bag. The marker is applied to the window and the color is very vibrant. To remove the ink I use window cleaner.

My husband bought me the Crayola Window Markers a few years back.  I loved them and used them often.  Eventually however after many years of use they no longer work.  I threw away the ones that did not work, and kept a few that did.  Now these ones do not work.  I am going to keep them, just for the collection.  I love them a lot.  The new ones do not seem to write as dark and I prefer the windows crystal effects markers or windows crayons. Even though the colors names are the same.  I wonder if they are the same ones and I am just remembering how they draw differently. It is interesting that they are marked as washable, but have a stain advisement on the back.
