A gift is not a gift when you don't know what to do with it! Play hop-scotch on the sidewalks...oops, it sez don't breathe it in and wear goggles. Shouldn't this stuff be outlawed :?: :?

so, what kind of chalk refills? i have this handy-dandy (chalk pencil) refillable, the chalk is about 1/8th inch thick, shaped like a long pencil lead, takes different colors of chalk...i don't know what i would do with out it, i use it every single day! or is is fat chalk? chalk is good for most of my marking tasks, the chalk brushes off, does not leave marks,
if you really have no use for the 'gift' post a picture of it...someone will know exactly what to do with it and put it to good use, you could (re-gift) it at some point...or find a good use for it after all and put it to use, or just pass it on if it's just not something you will use...lots of places to donate too...like school art department.

Is it powdered chalk? The only use for powdered chalk I know of, is to use in the Pounce marking pad. You can make a muslin pounce pad and fill it with the chalk. It's pretty good for marking stencil patterns on fabric.

Either a pounce pad or refills for the chalk markers. I love the chalk markers and use them all the time.

Pass it on to someone who will use it?

Used in the pounce pad it should be harmless...blowing it all around the house in loose form may cause medical issues :wink:

I use my pounce pad all the time. It works so well for me.
