The original eight-color set of our very own custom blends! The consensus in the shop is that it gives us "all the feels," like smelling warm caramel in our favorite ice cream shop, or strolling the neighborhood avenues in springtime. This set comes in our compact and elegant Matte White Simple Travel Palette. Our premade sets also include a swatch card letterpress printed by our friends at Aesthetic Union—what better way to get to know your new colors than a meditative swatching session?! TOP ROWCfM Rose, CfM Poppy, CfM Lilac, CfM Payne’s Grey BOTTOM ROWCfM Cypress, CfM Moss, CfM Denim, CfM Iris All of our watercolors are handmade in our shop using the highest quality earth and synthetic pigments, plus natural watercolor binding medium made from gum arabic (sap from acacia trees), honey, glycerine, distilled water, and a dash of clove oil for freshness! Some of our premade sets and custom blends contain colors which are not lightfast. Fading can be reduced by coating finished pieces in a UV protective varnish and/or keeping them out of direct sunlight. You can view a list of non-lightfast colors here. All of our watercolors conform to ASTM D-4236.
