Let’s chat watercolors! I have used lots of them and have lots of fun recommendations for all price points. Remember that you can use those Crayola and Prang watercolor sets that you used as a kid!
As you can tell my watercolors are well loved and used! They are great for travel too!
Here are some tips….use them, love them and don’t worry if they get messy! Also, you can mix and match brands. Sometimes I pick a palette and I stick to it for a project.
Here are my top picks!
Prima Watercolors:
- Classics – my #1 go-to set because when you have this you can make all the other colors.
- Currents – blues, greens and teals!
- Pastel Dreams
- Tropicals
- Woodlands
- Odyssey
- Vintage Pastel
- Decadent Pies

No matter what watercolors you choose I recommend you experiment and use the heck out of them. You will find so many fun color combinations and all you have to do is add water!
