Brushes

How do you "do" your brushes? Do you have a whole set for each color? Just rounds for each color? Tell me your system.

I keep them in one of those ice cube trays for water bottles. I have several flats, rounds, scrips, angles, & filberts in various sizes. I tried leaving the paint on my brushes & not rinsing them out(I was recommended this) but found that in this humidity & heat it made my line work look crappy. I now rinse between kids. Each brush type has a row w/ 3 compartments & then I scale them down from larges to smallest. It helps me keep from searching.

Ex. Large rounds in one hole, Mediumish rounds in middle hole & smaller rounds & scripts in the 3rd hole.

Next row, filberts: large, medium, small

etc.

I also keep my mops & dobbers in the holder.

I hope this makes sense(I have a lot of brushes & just got some more & gave some of my older ones to my daughter).

I will be looking out for one of those ice tube trays. What a great idea!
I always rinse between kids, too.

They're in the departnment stores in the spring in the picnic section.

I use those trays that you use to make popsicles. I just threw out the popsicle sticks..
