Learn how to paint your own Christmas cards, gift tags and gift boxes, create seasonal table settings, hand painted Christmas crackers and garlands, and unique hand-painted Christmas gifts including a watercolor wreath.Using innovative but accessible watercolor primer products, you can now prepare a wide variety of surfaces for watercolor painting.
