When our kids celebrate their birthdays we try to surprise them with a birthday sign. Last year I made a sign for our front door that greeted our son when he got home from school.
This year I bought the new Crayola Washable Window Crayons
to give a try. When he got up this morning he was greeted with a birthday wish on the mirror.
Just a side note: I do like the way the window crayons make a smooth easy mark. They give a more opaque effect than the window markers. I also like how you can color back over the image and it is not removed –unlike the window markers. There are less colors than the markers and the red is more pink than red. However, my daughter has been playing with them and doesn’t seem to mind only having a few colors. I was really concerned after reading the reviews that they would be difficult to clean. I allowed a picture to dry about an hour and then cleaned the window. I did not have any trouble (I use a mixture of vinegar and water to clean my windows and mirrors). I don’t know if allowed to stay on the windows for days if it would then become more difficult to remove.
What a great idea! Not only is this a great idea for birthdays, but my daughter would also love using them!
I would love to try these. I love your site. Thank you for all the fantastic ideas.
Cool idea! LOVES IT!
I think these are great. It’s good to do special things for our children, especially on their birthday. I think it makes special memories. And a very Happy Birthday to Blake!

So cute- please enter me!
These look like a lot of fun! My daughter’s b-day is coming up and it would be fun to try these out…
my daughter would have sooo fun with this!!!! hope we win.
Love this idea! I will definitely don this on the bathroom mirror for my kiddoes’ birthdays now.
I just saw these at the store the other day and wondered how they would go over. I hope I win!
I’d love these! Birthday’s are the best! It’s mine today!!!
LOVE this idea! My oldest turns 17 as well, in November…We make a big sign, with the gifts…and do their pictures with that sign…Love the idea, of the mirror though!!!
Thanks!
Great idea. I totally see these being used for any occasion. An easy way to “mask” all the fingerprints off the glass slider doors. Another good idea is to leave them in the bathroom and have your guest autograph the mirror. easy enough to do just for that day/night and then clean bathroom mirrow tomorrow! I like it. I’ll wait to see if I win some markers and if not, then I will definately go out to buy some. Maybe I could use my Michael’s coupons and get 40 % off,,,,hey not bad!
thanks for the idea.
What a fun product! My son would think it was really cool to color on the windows!
I love this idea! Birthdays are coming up in November & December. I’ll have to try it. In the past, I’ve made paper lanterns and strung them up around the door and in the room. I’ve also hung streamers and balloons for when my daughters wake up.
We would love to try these! My daughter keeps taking my gel decorations off my front door, so it might be fun to let her decorate on her own! Love the birthday sign tradition too!
