Easy Spring Watercolor Wreath (and a brush lettering cheat!)

Hi friends! I am honestly terrible at brush lettering, you will not learn how to properly letter anything in this video but I will show you how I cheat at it and I’ll show you how to design a pretty watercolor wreath

Sponsored by Smart Art, a wonderful monthly subscription art box company! All the supplies can be found in the April Smart Art Box but if you missed out on that I will list them out below with amazon affiliate links.

• Niji watercolors

• Tombow Beginner Brush Lettering pen set

• Hand lettering paper * I couldn’t find the Hahnemuhle

• #4 round brush

• Check out the free lettering worksheets on Tombows website

• I used a lightbox to trace words I printed with a brush letter font in Google Docs. This is the light box I own. I have had it for 2 years and it works great!

This project was more fun that I thought it would be and I really like the wreath I painted and how the paint played on the crisp and smooth paper. There was a tiny bit of buckling on the paper from the watercolor but not too bad. I tried experimenting with watercolors on that paper but it was really too thin to do more than a few small accents. I hope this inspired you to try something new! Thanks for stopping by and til next time happy crafting!
