Green Living: GLOB Paints

March 28, 2012 |  by

When it comes to kids toys, games and art supplies, more and more green options have become available in the last few years. Recently, I was introduced to GLOB paints. And after trying them out, I love them and so do my kids.

Most paints smell nasty and are full of chemicals. GLOB offers all natural botanical paints that are actually made from fruits, vegetables, flowers and spices with colors like lemon verbena, pomegranate, tangerine and basil green, (and yes, they smell like the colors indicate).

These natural, non-toxic, biodegradable paints come in a powder pigment form. You just add water to turn them into paint. You can also use GLOB in homemade play dough and other projects as well.

The colors are rich, the paint is smooth, and the scents are really nice too, making GLOB paints an eco-friendly, smart choice for all your kids’ arts and crafts projects.

GLOB offers a variety of paint sets as well as a variety of other arts and crafts products sourced from natural, recyclable and sustainable materials. The GLOB Paint Kit is just $18 and features six color packets, six compostable jars with lids, and two bamboo brushes. GLOB products aare available at globiton.com and at select retailers.
