Watercolor Essential by grammyn

Watercolor Essential

Having already told you I am a "make do" kind of person I show you my water holders for watercolor painting. These cups orginally held ice cream or fruit and are now put to use holding water for me to rinse my brushes in when I paint
Such a resourceful painter! I'd probably be a good helper to eat the ice cream! :- )

Handy for you and good for the environment! Nice (almost) white on white shot.

Great way to reuse/recycle. Nice monochrome shot.

Sometimes the practical is the easiest solution.

It's always good to recycle. Love the simple way you photographed them.

Love recycling , I thought it was a fruit cup ;-)

We save those little cups everytime we get any. They are very useful. We usually use them for snacks, but I can see how they would be perfect for watercolor.

Nice! My favourite watercontainer is a large plastic jar. It is wide and not that tall, so it has a wide mouth and holds plenty of water.

Ooh I like it, I too save all plastic containers especially those with lids.

Looks like they are the perfect size for the job

Nice shot

There's a high key white minimalist challenge this could be tagged for!!

It's better to use them than throw them away. I stash away yogurt pots for water or mixing paints.

Love the high key

Nice high key of your useful essentials.

A perfect re-use! And nicely composed, as well. 😊

@thewatersphotos LOL! thanks Gary. I probably wouldn't need any help with that!
@olivetreeann It is handy for me. I debated whether to make this a little whiter or not but decided against it because it blew it out too much Thanks Ann
@eudora Thank you Diane for both comments
@theredcamera I think so but not everyone feels the same Ellen
@madamelucy I really appreciate that Terri
@dutchothotmailcom great. you weren't wrong
@shutterbug49 they actually have so many uses. My husband uses them for lots of things in his shop
@monikozi A great suggestion as I find I need to change the water often in these smaller containers
@ludwigsdiana they have so many uses but these have no lids
@kjarn sometimes they are a little too small but they store nicely in the box
@bkbinthecity You are so niced to always make such a positive comment
@30pics4jackiesdiamond done
@serendypyty I agree and TGC uses them at his shop for small parts and other things
@linnypinny how nice of you to say Lin
@wakelys thanks so much Sue
@marilyn I am so glad you think so about both things

Nice repurposing.

@randystreat thanks, Kathy. It really hurts me to put plastic in a landfill
April 7th, 2022  
excellent idea and a wonderful way to reuse/recycle
April 7th, 2022

i have a stack of that from the apple sauce i use with my psyllium husks. i can't stomach to throw them away. i use them if i have to mix colours or to put my nuts or cookie to catch crumbs.
