I have just been introduced to the The Cap Trapper, a new crafting product. Rebecca, a mother of 3 and a former teacher, came up with this inventive idea for trapping your marker’s caps. She got tired of losing caps and markers drying out. So she developed a way to keep the markers together and ready to color.
I am a lover of crafty tools, especially when they help crafting go smoothly. I have been lucky enough to try these Cap Trappers out. By simply slipping your marker’s caps into the spaces provided, kids are ready to color away. My kids knew right where to put them back when they were done, leaving the markers capped and ready for the next coloring adventure. No more dry markers to throw out!
They can also be hooked together to form a longer cap train, keeping all your markers in the same place. Or even a fun bracelet. These Cap Trappers would be great for all ages of kids. And I know plenty of Teachers who would go GaGa over them too.
Here’s more exciting news: Rebecca from The Cap Trapper is happy to Giveaway these great Cap Trappers to 2 Make and Take readers. Just leave a comment on this post and you are entered to win. This giveaway will go until Thursday night at Midnight and the 2 Winners will be announced on Friday Morning. So comment today for your chance to get your hands on this fun new crafting tool.

Nice! We’re always having dried-out markers in our house.
This is one of our biggest problems! What a great product!
What a clever idea!! Thanks for the contest!
Oooohhhh! I’ve never seen anything like it! I love it! As a former teacher and now stay at home mom of two girls, we have lost many a cap…especially when we take the art stuff outside to enjoy the day. Thanks for the chance to win such a great product. Wish I would have thought of that :o)

Great! Now only if they came with head-to-toe smocks so my kids wouldn’t be covered in marker, then proceed to cover everything in the house with marker-prints.
What a fantastic idea! Wonder why it took so long for someone to come up with this one….
I love this idea!!!
Love it! Definitely need this!
With 5 kids, we have so many markers and are always losing caps. Those are a great idea!

those are cool and my dream come true! when i was teaching, i had my grandpa make wood ones, that i would stick the lids on and one row of markers sat at each table. ahhh,..those were the days!
It is a great idea! Try saying Cap Trapper 10 times fast. Pretty funny!
Brilliant! I’m an elementary school art teacher . . . why didn’t I think of this?? I love it when women invent great things and then produce, market and sell them. Yeah for her!
