Sharpie Marks on Walls

How do you remove sharpie marks from walls without rubbing the paint off?

Mr Clean Magic Eraser works well. However if it is flat latex paint it might blemish the paint. You could also use a stain blocker such as Kilz or Zinsser and spot paint.

another good one is any variety of thyme, especially the wooly kins, they'll come back, but aren't invasive, and smell heavenly when stepped on, i have them between my pavers on my paths, and im very happy with them.

I planted thyme (not sure of the exact type) and it was beautiful and easy to grow.

clover would be the easiest (creeping charlie) They tend to grow everywhere, and you'll get some flowers.

Mint has always been my favorite. Just be careful if the cracks move into your yard because mint can completely take over!

I agree creeping thyme is wonderful , it fills in the cracks nicely without growing crazy, smells great when stepped on and is very pretty !!!

try stonecrop,it is in the sedum family. it is a bright green trailing plant that is about 4-6" long. i have it between cracks in pavement and in cracks between rocks of my pond. i dont know about living in your zone. i do know it will take a beating and thrive. sedum usually will grow just about anywhere.

Sorry, I don't know about the gardening zones. Check out low growing herbs. They are aromatic and come back every year after the snow. We have creeping thyme and oregano in a brick walk. Smells very nice.

Go to www.stepables.com for suggestions. They sell plants, but you can get the plant names and go to www.burpee.com to get seeds.

something like creeping thyme would smell good and keep the grass from comming back
