Abstract: A decorating kit is provided to a user. The decorating kit comprises an article having a color that conceals color applied to the article, one or more designs applied on the article, and one or more coloring markers for coloring the designs on the article. The color of the article is a light absorbing color, which conceals color applied to the article. The article is, for example, clothing, an accessory, a pet product, etc. The designs are screened or attached onto the article. When the user colors the designs on the article using the coloring markers, the colors that inadvertently extend beyond the designs onto the article are not visible on the article. The user can therefore color the designs on the article without the colors that over-mark the designs, visible on the article. The decorating kit further comprises decorative elements for decorating the designs and the article.
