Watercolor Perfection
Nothing says a perfect nature painting like a landscape water color photo. For you serious painters, there is no way you are going to take a photo off the internet and paint the picture in your home. Instead, you’re going to take yourself on an adventure and paint what is right in front of you. However, getting to these beautiful sights can be difficult.

Hiking a five mile trail with a clunky watercolor paint set on your back, along with your supplies, practically makes the distance impossible!

Birch Press has found a product that will lessen the weight on your back and even fit into the smallest pocket of your travel pack. These unique watercolor sets have concentrated color on each sheet, just add a wet brush to activate the color!

This makes it easy to start painting anywhere because this set will fit any type of adventure you are searching for. The watercolor sheet packs are just the set for you adventurous painters!

We have three different sets of paint.
- the 15 color pack offers 15 colors on 2 1/2 by 6 1/2 inch sheets
- the small 40 color pack has 40 colors on 2 by 2 inch sheets
- the large 40 color pack has 40 colors on 2 1/2 by 6 1/2 inch sheets
When your creation is finished, you just let the squares dry and you can put them back into your bag.

If painting landscapes is not your thing, don’t fear, these watercolor sets also work perfectly for crafting handmade cards. By using a blank card and stamping a design, you can fill in the stamp with these lovely colors, bringing that card to life. A quick and easy way to add a pop of color to help that card stand out!

Here are all of the colors listed in our 15 color pack. As you can see, this pack offers a majority of the basic colors with some different shades to still add variety!

Below are the forty colors that are part of the small (2 by 2 sheets) and normal (2 1/2 by 6 1/2) sized bonus packs.

So, whether you are into painting an outdoor scene or just want to make some pretty cards to send out to your friends, Birch Press now offers a product that’ll help make those works of art look breathtaking!

A Little Goes a Long Way

Sometimes in the morning you’re too tired to keep large liquid objects from spilling. This is when those giant containers of creamers become my worst enemy. On one hand, I don’t want to buy the smaller version and have to keep taking trips to the store to get a new one when the creamer runs out every three days but on the other hand, I don’t want to spill too much into my coffee or the floor either! These mini creamer containers are just the right size! Now, I am able to pour the perfect amount, avoiding any spills or pouring in too much!

The pitcher has a simple outside with a pop of color located on the inside! Pops of dove grey, meadow, peacock, and ruby are currently available! They also go perfectly with our dot espresso cups!
