DecoArt Crafter's Acrylic Paint Set, 24 x 59 ml Popular Colours — Fast-Drying, Water-Based

DecoArt Crafter’s Acrylic Paint Set is a 24-colour kit of 2 fl oz water-based acrylics formulated for easy brushing, blending, and fast-drying craft work.

This set gathers DecoArt’s most requested shades in travel-friendly bottles so you can start projects right away. The paints have a creamy consistency that spreads smoothly, layers well, and dries to a matte finish. Because they’re water-based, cleanup is simple with soap and water, and the bottles are sized for classroom use, studios, and hobby tables alike.

What colours are included and how versatile are they?

The collection covers 24 widely used hues from neutrals and pastels to deep primaries and metallic-like tones. You get options for skin tones, foliage, holiday accents, and background washes, making it convenient to mix custom shades without buying single bottles individually.

• Includes whites, pinks, reds, yellows, greens, blues, purples, neutrals, and black.
• Ready for mixing to expand your palette with tints and shades.
• Useful for colour-matching across projects like signage, decor, and props.

How do these paints behave when applied to different surfaces?

DecoArt Crafter’s Acrylics are formulated to adhere to a wide variety of craft surfaces. They bond well to porous surfaces and also perform on nonporous materials when sealed or primed appropriately. The fast-drying nature speeds up layered techniques while still allowing brief blending time when wet.

• Works on wood, canvas, terra cotta, paper, and Styrofoam.
• Dries to a matte finish that accepts additional coats and varnishes.
• Brushes, sponges, and stencils are all compatible with this formula.

Are these paints safe and easy to use in classrooms and for beginners?

These acrylics are water-based and clean up with soap and water, which simplifies classroom setups and after-class maintenance. The 2 fl oz bottles are a manageable size for students and crafters, reducing waste and making distribution straightforward. DecoArt’s production in the USA supports consistent manufacturing standards many teachers and makers rely on.

• Water-based formula for easy cleaning and lower odour compared to solvent-based paints.
• 2 fl oz bottles are portable and ideal for group projects or kits.
• Consistent pigmentation helps predictable colour mixing during lessons.

How should I store and maintain these paints for long-term use?

Keep bottles tightly capped and stored upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve viscosity and colour. If paint skin forms around the cap, remove it before resealing; if paint thickens over time, gently stir or add a small amount of water to restore workability. Proper storage prolongs usable life and keeps the colours consistent across sessions.

• Close lids immediately after use to prevent skinning and drying out.
• Store at moderate room temperature to avoid separation or freeze damage.
• Use within recommended shelf windows for best pigment performance.
