Practical & Inexpensive
Recently readers shared a practical tool with me and asked if I would consider carrying this tool in the store.

Go to Studio Supplies > Brush Holder and you will find the following item:

The Classroom Set contains 20 brush holders and costs $25 per set. Both options ship for FREE. It doesn’t matter if you purchase one holder or 20.
