Our #1 Art Supply!

If your kids have spent time in the studio (or have heard us rave about this material), you can probably guess our top pick…

PAINT STICKS!!

These chunky, colorful sticks are washable paint in solid form—they’re like a lipstick version of tempera paint.

Why we LOVE them:

• Large swipes of bold, saturated colors

• Super smooth to use, for even the youngest children

• Dry in 90 seconds (with the right brand)

• Washable and don’t stain your hands

• Blend beautifully—yellow + blue = green!

• Work on paper, wood, glass, cardboard, and more

• Can be activated with a wet brush for a watercolor effect

• Available in primary colors, neon, pastels and metallics, as well as super chunky, or thin

There are many brands of paint sticks out there now, but not all are created equal. Some don’t dry properly, smear easily, or leave a sticky finish (a recent Crayola pack was terrible). We've tested a lot, and we only stock the ones that truly work well.

Want your own?

We’re now selling our favorite brand of paint sticks at the studio!

Once your kids try them, you’ll wonder how you lived without them!
