How to use

Select the desired colour and apply with light, even strokes for base fills, or use firmer pressure for more intense tones. Keep pencil tips well sharpened for precise lines and detailing; a standard hand-held pencil sharpener compatible with wooden pencils is suitable. Store the pencils in a dry place and return them to their case after use to maintain order and protect tips from breakage.

Recommendations

For best results on school and craft paper, combine light layering with short cross-hatching strokes to build colour depth while minimising wear on pencil cores. Supervise young children during sharpening and avoid excessive pressure that can cause tip breakage.
