This holiday season I will be focusing more on Merry Marking then I will on spending money. What do I mean by Merry Marking? I mean that I will be bringing cheer to all those around me with these great ideas from BIC using their awesome BIC Mark-It™ permanent markers!
Today I sat down with the BIC Mark-It™ Midnight Navy permanent marker and wrote out a few notes to my neighbors and friends. I tied each note to a candy cane and I will be going around tonight to slip them onto my neighbors mailboxes. I’m so excited to show a little love without them knowing it was me!
BIC Mark-It™ has lots of great Merry Marking ideas. You can click the link below to get more ideas out of their digital pdf booklet. The booklet contains inspirational ideas that you can create for your home or for your loved ones.

Midnight Stroll Craft –
Items Needed:
Assorted Candy Canes
BIC Mark-It™ Midnight Navy permanent marker
Ribbon (your choice of color)
Scissors
hole punch
index cards
Directions:
Write notes onto index cards using your BIC Mark-It™ Midnight Navy permanent marker.
Use the hole punch to punch a hole in the corner of your index card.
Cut a piece of ribbon with scissors about 6” in length.
Pull the ribbon through the hole in card and tie around a candy cane.
Go around your neighborhood at midnight and place candy cane notes into your neighbors mail boxes!
I would also love to nominate my Mom, Cousin Brandy and YOU to join the BIC Merry Marking Challenge!
It’s actually against the law here for anyone other than a mail carrier to place something in anyone else’s mail box, so I will just leave it at their door 😉
This is really cute! I love this initiative, as well. I’ll have to nominate my mom. She’s awesome.
I love making my own tags like this but never think to use candy canes with them – thanks for the great idea!
What a cute idea! I’m sure it would brighten someone’s day and they’d want to pass it on!
So cute, and love all the fun colors they have! I love when you can nominate friends and family for things like this!
Until I read this post, I totally forgot that I have a whole bunch of BIC markers. I bought them several months ago, and forgot to move them to my new desk. Thanks so much for the needed reminder! Cute Cute Cute ideas!
This is such a cute idea! I need to pick up some more bic markers and pens for our holiday needs!
I love that–it will be a lovely surprise when they all go to get their mail tomorrow and find your little gift in there! Too cute!
I do a lot of crafts. I use all different colors of Bic Markers.
That’s a fun little thing you did for your neighbors. It would certainly fill me with cheer to receive one of these from a neighbor.
What sweet ways to show someone you care! Love the colorful candy canes.
Oooh I love that color. I love me some Sharpies.
This is such an easy way to spread cheer around! Thanks for the idea.
This is such a fun idea. I am sure the neighbors would really enjoy getting this little surprise.
Personalized messages and gift tags are great. It shows that someone put a lot of thought into it.
Such a cute idea, I love the little notes!
What a simple way to make someone smile! These would be great teachers gifts too!
I have lots of markers of all different colours. I am going to make some of these. i love the idea.
What a cute idea. I bet you put a lot of smiles on a lot of people’s faces.
I Love this idea so much so! I am addicted to BIC markers too, fabulous idea to share with us. Thank you 🙂
What a cute idea. I think I would hang them over the door knob. It would be a cleaver idea for kids to give their classmates before Christmas break, or as an attachment to a small present. I love it!
