Make a custom Sharpie

You can now get everybody a custom Sharpie for Christmas.

Customization is all the rage these days, but unfortunately the Personalized Sharpie page is a bit lackluster. With lame clipart, limited choices in typeface, and no way to position or alter the size of the text, the Personalized Sharpie just seems like a rushed push out the door in time for Christmas orders (or Christmas parties).

Minimum quantity to buy is 6 (starting at $11.99).

Anyway, if I worked at Sharpie and had to think of a way to customize their product line, I would make it so that people could build their own marker packs with any combination and number of color choices. I know you can buy rainbow assortment packs of Sharpie markers, but I think it’d be nice to go the extra mile and be able to customize the colors in a pack (in case, say, I want 4 blacks and 2 greens, instead of getting one of each color or buying each color separately).
