Roll the paint, press the paper, peel back a one-of-a-kind print.

🎨 Repeatable results – the reusable silicone gel plate (235 x 150 mm) takes paint and lifts it cleanly onto paper, print after print
🖌️ Even coverage – the brayer roller spreads a thin, smooth layer, so colour goes on the way a printmaker's does
🌈 Mixing room – five 30 ml paint tubes give a starting palette to blend, layer and overprint
✂️ Layered patterns – four durable stencils block out shapes so each pass adds a new layer of detail
🖼️ Ready to display – ten printing papers and two wooden frames mean the best results go on the wall
▶️ Guided start – an instruction booklet and QR code card link to a video tutorial that walks beginners through the first print
🔇 Quiet and battery-free – a calm, solo, indoor activity that sets up on a desk or kitchen table

The Educator's Note

Layering teaches sequencing and composition. The maker decides what goes down first and what to leave out, which is the same thinking behind any visual art task.
Rolling a thin, even coat with the brayer builds hand control and pressure judgement. Too much paint shows immediately, so feedback arrives after each print.
Most creative kits stop at younger children. This one is built for ages 15 and up, with a video tutorial for independent learners and two frames, so the finished work is worth displaying.

Roll out the paint, lay on a stencil, press the paper and peel. Every pull from the silicone gel plate comes up different, so the first print looks like real printmaking rather than a craft exercise. Everything needed to start is in the box. Made for teens and adults from 15 years, this suits beginners who want a proper technique to learn. Each layer builds planning, colour judgement and patience, and leads towards the layered ghost-print style used by working artists.

Also available in a great value bundle

Choose this kit for someone who wants to learn a technique, not just fill in a template.

Teens aged 15 to 17 who enjoy visual arts at school and want to experiment with layered colour and composition at home
Adults who want a calm, hands-on creative hobby with a clear start point and no prior printmaking experience
Beginners who prefer to learn by following a short video tutorial, then adapting each print their own way
Anyone buying for a creative teenager or art-loving adult who already has plenty of sketchbooks and pencils

Press, peel, repeat

Gel printing looks complicated until you try it. You roll a thin layer of paint across the soft silicone plate, lay a stencil on top, press a sheet of paper over the lot and peel it back. What lifts off is a print with soft edges, a stencilled shape and a ghost of whatever was there before.

The plate measures 235 x 150 mm, a size that sits comfortably on a desk or kitchen table. It is reusable, so the technique keeps going well beyond the first sheet.

Building layers, building judgement

The real skill here is layering. A first pass might be a wash of yellow. The second adds a stencilled leaf shape in green. The third picks up the leftover paint on the plate for a faint, textured ghost print. Deciding what goes down first, and what to leave out, is the same thinking behind composition in any visual art.

The brayer does the teaching. Rolling an even, thin coat takes steady pressure and a light wrist, and too much paint shows straight away, so every print gives immediate feedback. As that control develops, prints move from single-colour washes to multi-layer compositions with stencils, overprints and ghost prints.

Set up for solo sessions

Five 30 ml paint tubes, ten printing papers, four durable stencils and two wooden frames are all in the box, along with an instruction booklet and a QR code card that links to a video tutorial for the first run-through. It is quiet, battery-free and works well as a solo, indoor activity. Cover the table first, as with any paint work.

At 15 years and up, it suits a teen building art skills outside school or an adult who wants a relaxed creative habit. The frames mean the best prints get displayed, not filed away. When the ten papers run out, the plate, roller and stencils are ready for more. Explore more creative kits in our Art & Craft range.
