Keep Paint Brushes Like New


Here's a secret to keep those craft paint brushes all nice and new like the day you bought them..."Liquid Soap". Once you've cleaned the paint from your brush and the bristles are still damp, simply apply a drop of liquid soap to the bristles, and reshape. The soap will dry and keep your bristles nicely shaped and in proper form until the next time you use your brush. Any brand of liquid soap will do whether it's dish soap or hand soap.

Wool Roving by Bernat


Have you seen this stuff yet??? I'm love'n it!!! It's a wool blend, and I've already used it for doll hair and needle felting. It gets my thumbs up for the availability and price...JoAnn Fabrics, 120 yds on a skein for $4.99. I did find it online too at Knitting-Warehouse, and for a tad bit cheaper, if don't have a JoAnn's near you.

Paint Tray


This is a school lunch tray that I picked up at the local thrift store for a whopping $0.50. Yes...it was clean and paint free when I bought it...lol!!! Being that I like things to be simple, this tray with all of it's sections is so handy when it comes to painting. And clean up...forget it. Just let the paint dry right in there, and paint on it again the next time. After awhile it builds up and peels out clean as a whistle in one piece.
