The problem

Children get bored of ordinary felt tips, and the craft box needs something new and exciting.

Why it makes a great gift

These pens add a surprise to every drawing: the puffy ink goes on like a normal felt tip, then a few minutes of heat from a hair dryer or heat gun, or 2 to 3 minutes in the microwave for drawings on paper, makes every line rise into a raised, popcorn-like texture.

The fine tips keep letters and small details neat, and the ink works on paper, card and wood as well as glass, stone and plastic. Each box holds 6 colours, so there is plenty to share.

Perfect for…

You are buying for a child who loves drawing, colouring and crafts.

You want a cheap, cheerful stocking filler that keeps them busy after the presents.

Your family makes its own Christmas cards and gift tags.

You need a party bag or Secret Santa idea for little artists.

01

Draw it, heat it, watch it pop

Draw as normal with the fine tips, then apply even heat with a hair dryer or heat gun for at least 2 minutes, or pop a paper drawing in the microwave for about 2 to 3 minutes.

The lines rise into a puffy, popcorn-like texture you can see and touch. Let a grown-up handle the heating for younger children.

02

Homemade Christmas cards with a 3D finish

A snowman, a rainbow, a row of hearts: once heated, each drawing stands out from the card in raised 3D relief.

It is a lovely way to make Christmas cards, gift tags and thank-you notes that grandparents will want to keep.

03

Not just for paper

The puffy ink also works on wood, glass, stone, pottery and plastic, so it can decorate a painted pebble, a photo frame or a school project.

Each box has 6 pens in assorted colours, and the bigger packs mean enough pens for brothers, sisters and friends to create together.

Frequently asked questions

How do I make the drawings puff up?

Draw your picture, then heat it evenly with a hair dryer or heat gun for at least 2 minutes, or place a paper drawing in the microwave for about 2 to 3 minutes. The lines rise as they warm.

Can children use them on their own?

Children can do the drawing on their own. The heating step should be done or supervised by an adult, especially with a heat gun or the microwave.

What surfaces can I draw on?

Paper and card work best for the microwave method. With a hair dryer or heat gun, the pens also work on wood, glass, metal, pottery, stone, plastic and rubber.

How many pens do I get?

Each box holds 6 pens in assorted colours. Choose 2 boxes (12 pens), 5 boxes (30 pens) or 8 boxes (48 pens).

Standard UK delivery is free and takes 7–9 working days, with tracking. Need it sooner? Choose Priority delivery (5–7 working days) for £2.90 at checkout. Buying for Christmas? Order by Tuesday 15 December to receive it in time.
