Painting Tip Brought to You by the Folks at CPi!
This little pointer is for the artist with an Rx! I use my clean, empty pill bottles to save leftover acrylic paint. When I've finished a painting session, I simply cannot waste that expensive paint, let alone add it to the landfill. If you use this tip, be sure to paint a dab of the color on the lid, since colored pill bottles make it difficult to tell which color paint is inside!

Wonderful tip!! I'm going to use this one too -When I paint, I always end up with a whole bunch of paint that doesn't get used but can't be put back in the paint bottle. I always hate to throw it out but I never knew how to save it. Now my husband is going to really think I'm nuts when I start asking my parents to save me their empty pill bottles:) Have a great week.
