Cassie Stephens' Hand-Picked Art Supplies

Hi! My name is Cassie Stephens and I have been an elementary art teacher for the last 23 years. During that time, I can easily say that I've tried just about every art supply on the planet. One thing I've learned for certain: not all art supplies are created equal! I've seen my students struggle and become frustrated with art supplies of poor quality. Over time, I've learned what art supply brands to avoid and which ones are the best to put into the hands of my students. What you will find here are those art supplies! Each has been used by kids in my art room and come highly recommended by both my artists and me. Give your kids the gift of great art supplies and watch them soar!

Cassie Stephens' top picks tested by kids in her classroom! Oversized 4" x 1" sticks provide easy gripping and coloring. Great for use on colored paper. Withstands cutting, crinkling and folding without tearing and is pre-cut to save time. Add water and watch the colors blend. Great for self-portraits or speech therapy exercises. These durable, scratch-resistant acrylic mirrors are 2 mm thick. Durable pencils with long lasting core provide bright colors and resist fading. High concentrations of the finest pigments and pure calcium carbonate provide a rich velvety texture for high quality blendability.

Let the creativity run wild with Cassie Stephens' approved supplies.

Miniature Clay Portraits

I love using Creativity Street Modeling Clay in my art room! It never dries out. An alternative to creating temporary practice sculptures is one of my favorite lessons: Miniature Clay Portraits! Using the Multicultural Assortment, my students have created both self-portraits and portraits of the teachers, faculty and staff at our school. To make the piece permanent, we coat in clear nail polish!

Paint Scrapin' Fun

Texture Paint Scrapers are one of my Deserted Island Art Supplies…meaning that if I were stranded on an art teacherin’ deserted island this is what I’d need. Texture combs would be it, every time! My students and I love them because of their instant gratification (they always inspire plenty of "oohs" and "ahhs") and endless possibilities.

Beads Galore!

Want to know something that’s great for fine motor skills for our young artists? Stringing beads! What I love even more about these is that they add a literacy component that my students absolutely love. I use these beads with my younger students as a part of a clay lesson where we create their first initial from clay. Afterward, they spell their names out with the beads, or simply pick out letters that they recognize.

Cassie Stephens' must-have art supplies for every classroom. These 5" wide x 3-1/8" tall scrapers allow kids to create patterns, blend different colors and play with shapes and designs. Reliable performance with a special formula that won’t bleed through paper and won't dry even when the cap is off for over 24 hours. Tough enough to take scoring, folding and curling without cracking and tearing and is fade-resistant for brighter, longer-lasting projects. Brilliant opaque colors and smooth laydown. Includes water wells and a paint brush. Heavyweight white sulphite art paper with natural color and medium tooth. A Great choice for all types of media.

    I am an art teacher. I bought reams of this paper last year and it was great. Could handle paint and Sharpie. This year’s batch is MUCH thinner. Quality has gone WAY down. I’m so disappointed. I have two reams, had to emergency order a different brand, and am now left to figure out what to do with all this junky paper. What a bummer. Photo is the back of a drawing. Practically see through. Previous reams were not like this.
