Sponsor Spotlight {Faber-Castell} #GreenSchool

One of my favorite crafts as a child was painting. I was horrible. But that didn't stop me from trying and imagining I was the next Bob Ross. Watercolors were always my favorite. I could sit for hours and paint random things. Then we had these water color books. The pictures were there, all you had to do was brush water over everything and bam! colors started to pop up all over the page! It was awesome. Faber-Castell had some pretty awesome watercolor items that will take your painting adventure to a whole new level. With their watercolor pencils and crayons you are able to draw out your masterpiece and the gently add the water to smooth our the colors and give it that rich look.
We have been using Faber-Castell products for a few months and couldn't be happier with them. One thing I love is the triangular pencils. There is nothing more annoying than the constant rolling off the table with traditional round pencils. It is just so nice to have these stay where you place them. I know the kids have enjoyed this simple feature. I also love that their eco pencils are made from reforested wood, helping preserve natural forests. I have found these products to be some of the most true to life colors as well as durable. My kids are tough on their supplies and they have managed to keep these is tip-top shape.


I am so excited to watch the kids love of watercolors grow as they continue to use these great products! Faber-Castell makes so many amazing tools to help tap into your child's inner artist. You can find several projects on their website to help inspire a great creative afternoon or weekend.  I highly suggest you take a look around and see what other great products you can try out.
