I use a piece of scrunched up cotton wool - seems to work a treat.

I can't be doing with any of those. I use the little handle doodah with the crocodile jaws on the end, and make up sponges. You just
pull the minutest piece off and roll it into a ball and the croc, holds it. It doesn't seem to go all over the place like cotton wool tends to. Also I have
the tiny chalk set, bought from C&C ages ago, they're a tiny metal handle thingy, like a coctail stick, and there's a bit of "fluff" on
the end. They allow you to get into the tiniest places, and although I thought the kit was a bit expensive for what it was, I've used it over and over. I
keep 1 "stick" for each colour, or range of colours, and would highly recommend them. (You get the crocodile thingy in with it, and those things you
stick your finger in with the foam on the end.) Sorry, can't remember the name xx Jacqui

I have tried chalking but it goes everywhere except where I want it. Thanks for all your tips. Trish

Love using chalks and use the crocodile clip, also the make up stick things with pad on the end or cotton wool it all depends on the area I am chalking but
have found that just taking the excess off on a piece of kitchen roll does help and you can use it back from the kitchen roll just for a light dusting.

I haven't seen them for a long time. I think a lady called Paula??? from the states used to have them, and I haven't seen her for
a long time now either. I think it was called a CHALKS ACCESORY KIT , good luck xx
