Dot & Daisy Watercolour Paint Set

Thirty gouache watercolor paints in a tin, with a brush, a brush pen, a mixing tray, and a swatch sheet, which makes this a complete watercolor paint set rather than a starter that sends you back out for supplies. The tin is the practical part. It closes, it travels, and it turns a kitchen table into a studio in about thirty seconds, then puts itself away when dinner needs the table back. Gouache is why the color lays down solid; it rewets on the palette the way watercolor does, but it dries opaque, so a beginner gets a satisfying result on the first try instead of a pale wash. Papier designed the Dot and Daisy pattern, and the case looks like a keepsake rather than a craft store clamshell. Give it as a paint set for kids old enough to rinse a brush, or as one of the craft kits for adults who need one unstructured hour.
