Wet Palette?

Not exactly a wet palette but here's my solution to storing the paints I'm using.

Since I mix a lot of my own colours I do so in milk bottle tops. Taking a container that our wash tablets come in, I put some sponge cloth in the bottom, soak it in water, and the paints stay workable for ages. I've used some up to 2 weeks after mixing, and of course I can use the lid as a palette if I want to tint one of them a bit.

I made my own out of a takeaway food dish, a thin household sponge cut to shape and baking parchment. They are really good as long as you remember to put the lid on.
