- high quality acrylics look much better than the kids version; even so these ones I bought from Mad Harry’s seem quite good to me
- Paper plate for a pallete works fine
- Plastic kitchen place mat from Woolies
- Don’t let the paint dry. If you are interrupted, then cover with gladwrap
- Wash out your brushes in a glass of water and dry with a paper towel to change colours
- Gently paper towel brushes at end to keep the bristles shaped, stray brush hairs are bothersome
- Blend colours, eg. I blended green and white for the border colour
- I still haven’t bought glaze but plan to do so soon
