This project emerged when my #100dayproject collided with a new/old delightful Cloverine tin flea market find! I put this alternative sketchbook together to always have watercolour paper on hand in my Sendak. The smallness makes painting ever-accessible, and the shape makes a good painting feel complete!

My friend Helen and I did a Tiny Tinned Treasures workshop and ramble on about the possibilities. You can find vintage tins all over – the perk of ours are the perfectly cut sheets of Arches Watercolour paper, but you can make your own and more!

Please note that these tins are vintage and may have varying levels of wear and minor rust.
