Hi, I'd like to get my daughter some art-related gift but don't know what. She has a lot of art supplies already, including a ton of pens, markers, brushes and so on; a light box, etc.. Do you have any ideas for something less obvious?

I have an arty 12 year old DD. She loves going to a local art club, but it’s not cheap, so she’s getting a big gift voucher of prepaid sessions.

I’ve bought my dd10 a resin kit which I think she’ll enjoy. She also likes ‘shrinky art’ which is just a bit of fun but can be creative with it.

What about things in other mediums that she might not have tried? Air dried clay kits maybe, or a felting starter kit?

My DS is arty (older though!) Some ideas
A roll to hold pencils/ pens/ brushes
Pastels- oil are fun with suitable paper
Lino and cutters for printing
Sketch books
A portfolio to store work/ carry work
Frame one of her art works
'How to' books
A tool box for storing tools
