Tips and Tricks

  • To ensure even ink application, regularly pump the YONO markers.

How it is done:

  • First, mix the casting powder with water and pour the mixture into the silicone molds. Follow the manufacturer's instructions. Allow it to harden thoroughly.
  • Once the casting powder has fully hardened, remove the houses from the mold. If necessary, sand them down a little with sandpaper.
  • Before using the marker for the first time, shake it with the cap closed for 60 seconds. Then, gently press the tip onto a piece of paper several times to activate the ink flow. Once the tip is fully saturated with ink, write on a test piece of paper.
  • Then, use the YONO marker to decorate the house fronts as desired.
  • Finally, paint the roofs and add an interior light source (e.g., a string of small fairy lights or LED tea lights).
