CRAFT CHARACTER UTENSILS
If you’re feeling Christmas crafty why not get your POSCA paint pens out and have a go at drawing festive characters on wooden utensils?
Simply draw out in pencil first and fill in with your favourite POSCA paint markers.
TRANSFORM AN OLD PILLOWCASE INTO A WELL-LOVED STOCKING
Make memories for a little one’s Christmas morning by transforming an old pillowcase into a personalised stocking with 7M POSCAs. If
you’re not a confident with drawing you can pop a Robin picture and initial inside the pillowcase to trace over
MAKE DELICATELY DECORATED VOTIVES
POSCA pens work directly on glass and the choice of nib size gives you total creative freedom. Plus, POSCA paint markers come in a wide
range of colours so they’re sure to fit in with any festive scheme. The opaque finish means your design can sit on the glass surface and it’s easy
to decorate glass with POSCA pens; you can free-style or pop a template under the glass and go over it with your pen.
