Calligraphy Supplies
So, you got your worksheets; what’s next? How to use them, and what do you need for that?
Here are the things you’ll need:
- High-quality printing paper. If you want to practice right on top of these worksheets, you need to use good-quality paper, or it will damage your brush pens. I recommend this HP premium paper.
- Tracing paper. The best way to use these worksheets is to print them and use tracing paper on top of them to practice. That way, you’ll definitely use supplies and save money. Any tracing paper would work, like this Strathmore tracing paper.
- Brush pens. For sure, to practice calligraphy, you need brush pens. I recommend trying Tombow Dual Brush Pens or Calliograph pens if you’re looking for large brush pen tips or Tombow Fude pens for small tip pens.
