CFM is one of our fave local woman-owned-and-operated businesses.They are a storefront offering handmade watercolors and a line of letterpress watercolor papergoods all made in-house, alongside a curated selection of creative supplies. In 2019, we started to talk about collaborating on a special Holiday product, to come up with something that represents all that we care about: sustainability, creativity, process, and COLOR.

We were sitting on a fair amount of patterned fabric backstock that we didn't want to go to waste, and wondered if we could come up with something to make from it. I think it was actually all of us who had the idea of a brush roll, and we immediately got so excited about this possibility! For Holiday 2019, CFM developed a custom water color palette to match each of our brush rolls and we included this palette along with everything one needs to get started with water coloring, in the brush roll. How special, right?!

The brush rolls were a rip roaring success so we've brought them back! This time sans supplies so you can fill them with whatever tools you've got.

We can't wait to see how you pack your rolls and the work you make with them.
