I started this doodling challenge with watercolor and that got me thinking! I love the ease of ease of opening my palette and painting. Yes, I mix a little, but all of my colors are conveniently in one palette practically ready to go with all of my ideas! How can I create an acrylic paint palette?

I have taken small containers that I purchased at Dollar Tree, but the paint didn’t last long. It dried up as acrylic paint does when you leave it out. Oh, but the joy using mixing these colors and opening them up to paint right away was amazing!

Is there something I can mix with my paint, so it won’t dry out? I did find this video and just as I was pondering this question. I love when that happens.

I would love to buy every color that my heart desires but that could be expensive. I don’t have enough space either.

Let me review this color mixing guide.

What are your thoughts? I would love to mix greens, oranges and pinks. What a dream. Maybe glass jars are my answer. Knowing me, I will drop it and that is not a mess I want to make. I love making messes.

Please let me know, what are your favorite colors to mix up? What is your method for storing your paint? I keep all of my paint in a big box. It’s my treasure box.

With Love, Mireya
