Happy WOYWW everyone<\/span>

<\/span>Today I finally got round to sorting my ‘workshop’ brushes….which turned out to be a bigger job than I thought!<\/span>

<\/span>At the workshops I run I provide brushes for my students and every now and again I like to go through them and move to a ‘scruffy’ jar the ones that are no longer fit for their purpose in the world of acrylics but are ok for more crafting techniques.  I also mark the handles with pink nail varnish so as few as possible go missing lol.<\/span>

<\/span>So first I tipped them all out….<\/span>

<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

I didn’t realise I had so many….I then put all the same size and style of brushes together, checked for pink nail varnish and marked up any new additions.  <\/span>

<\/span>Once dry I put them all back in my carousel and back on my desk….happy now they look all neat and tidy!!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Below are my favourite brushes of all time….you know, the ones that you would pick if you could only have a few….<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
My Maxine Mops, my 3\/4″ angle shader by Loew-Cornell, my no 12 Traditions blender by DecoArt and finally the only liner I ever really use…10\/0 mid-length again by Loew-Cornell.  <\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
For those of you in America I am so jealous….all of these except for the DecoArt blender I have had to import from Hofcraft for both myself and my students, they really are lush….think I just need an airline ticket next time….I so want to see Hofcraft for real.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Have a great WOYWW and check out the Stamping Ground<\/a> for more fun desks.<\/span><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
Hopefully see you next week….<\/span><\/div>\n
