You’ll want our Water Painters (151298) when working with
Watercolor pencils (page 126 Annual Catalog). With a built-in water reservoir, you won’t have to worry about an open container of water spilling over your creations. But did you know that Painters can be used in your office too?
Here’s my TIP: Keep the wide-tipped Painter in the office desk drawer! It’s perfect for wetting the glue on every envelope flap – no more paper cuts or yucky taste on your tongue!
NOTE: I used a Water Painter on one of my SUITE projects this month – check it out!
