I'd like to assemble my own paint-by-number kits, so I need to buy some -- actually, a lot, around 100 -- of those little flip-top paint container sets that are connected together, preferably without paint in them already, but I would consider pots with paint already in them, if there were enough different colors. They don't need to be those exact containers, but something that could store small amounts of around 10 colors of paint. |

Hi kmel! Your request sent me right to one of my favorite catalogs! American Science & Surplus. And sure enough, they sell the little paint-pots you're talking about, but filled with paint. You'd have to empty them (or at least half of them) to get more than the 4 colors they have. But for the price, it may well be worth it. 16 pots for $1. "... four strips of (4) 1/2 oz pots of red, green, yellow, and white (made for a by-the-numbers set, perhaps). $1.00 / PKG(4)" http://www.sciplus.com/category.cfm?subsection=10&category=100 Here's a set that features 6 colors in 1/2 oz pots for $1.59 http://www.joann.com/catalog.jhtml?CATID=10038&PRODID=11404&AID=1160463&PID=978793 On the empty side, here's a person who has too many. Though this posting is a year old, maybe he/she is still trying to get rid of them. See the site for email address: "I found these paint pots that children use to paint by number. They are a set of 8 pots on one row. So I ordered them and the minimum order was 1,000. .. To my surprise I did not get 1,000 individual paint pots I got 1,000 rows of 8 paint pots. Now I have 8,000 paint pots... I would like to share these with anyone who would like them. They are .50 cents each http://pub54.ezboard.com/fpermanentmakeupfrm16.showMessage?topicID=26.topic Individual bottles with flip-tops wholesale probably a large minimum order. http://www.usplastic.com/catalog/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=USPlastic&category%5Fname=Jars&product%5Fid=Colored+Poly+Cons And finally, do you know about this website? Seems there is quite a contingency of paint-by-number fans! http://www.paintbynumberz.com/directory.html Hope this has helped you out. Happy painting! -K~ Search terms: "paint by number" combined with terms bottles, jars, containers "Art supplies" wholesale "Craft supplies" wholesale "Plastic bottles" wholesale |
