It Came Back
I had heard that the marks made by Frixion pens, which disappear in heat, come back in the cold. But I didn't think my house was THAT cold!
I made this name tag a little over three years ago. It used to look pretty good, but now you can see ghosting behind my name.
When I first inked in my name, the letters were upright and a little formal looking. I ironed them away, and tried again, with a swoop. Liking it, I free-motioned over them and all was well until who knows when.
I was ready for an easy fix - just iron them away again. But I applied heat until the fabric started to smell a little done and I still can't get those marks out.
I guess you only get one shot at this, and you need to make sure your ink gets totally covered. Makes me a little unhappy that I had stocked up on so many of these magic pens.
I'm going to switch to chalk. Blech.
