I do a lot of painting on ceramic, glass, tiles, seashells and smooth river rocks. I share hundreds of arts and crafts projects on the TCC blog every year. One thing that I require in the projects that I share are 1. affordability 2. Easy to complete and 3. Don’t take days to make! I think that’s why our arts and crafts projects are so popular with every day families.

Last week I purchased the Sunee Acrylic Dual-Tip Paint Markers from Amazon. These markers contain acrylic paint and feature a dual tip. On one end you’ll find a medium tip and on the other end a fine tip. You get 18 colors in the box in beautiful pastel and classic colors.
These acrylic paint markers require no priming, they don’t drip, leak, or have any foul paint odors. Just remove the cap and use! Another added benefit is that they dry super fast. You’re not waiting for an hour or two for the paint to dry. You use the medium point for coloring in larger sized areas and the fine point for writing words and outlining. There’s a lot you can do with these paint markers.
Let’s talk about affordability. I’ve spent $50 for a set of 12 high-end paint markers that need priming, clog and all sorts of other things. While they’re nice markers and easy-to-use I don’t appreciate the priming and clogging factor, nor the price. The Sunee Acrylic Dual-Tip Paint Markers that I purchased from Amazon for less than $10.00 are of a lesser quality (admit that) but much more affordable. Plus, the other benefits that I stated above. I feel they make a nice starter set or great for older kids who are getting into art.
The painted clam seashells that you see in this post were decorated using the set of Sunee Acrylic Paint Markers. As you can see…they do give you nice color and control when you’re using them. I’m pleased with the results! After painting on seashells, tiles or smooth river rocks you do want to seal the project with a clear coat of Mod Podge or a spray acrylic sealer. I used Mod Podge.
