A Lovely Gift for A Little Artist





We love this birthday gift! These Lyra pencils (made in Germany) are soft, vivid, easy to apply, and great to hold! All of the colours are beautiful. But my favourites are the gold and silver!
When I was little I was the proud owner of a wonderful collection of around 60 Faber Castell Polychromos (also made in Germany). These were truly treasured, and the children are now using them. However, they are down to the last couple of centimetres, so these make a timely addition to our colour pencil collection.
Thankfully these are an affordable luxury, because once you have used really good pencils, you just can't go back to the supermarket brand.
