writing tools

I likes she went in to the different writing tools that could be used and showed the differences in appearances. Plus she noted its not the supplies its the time spent practicing that makes the project good

Great Info

Fun to see all the options and have some gift lists started. Know you probably didn’t want to advertise but some brands or places to find some of these may have been helpful as well. I’ll conduct a search though. Thanks!

Great tips on supplies

I really enjoyed the brief overview of supplies, suggestions for paper to buy was my favorite. I bought some cheap paper that didn’t work well before I knew better. I also learned something new about paint brushes that I will definitely do from now on. I would have loved to watch this when I first started lettering, I’m intermediate now and I have many of the suggested supplies and they work well.
