Beyond the basics of pencils, pens, and paper, there are many helpful tools that can enhance your coloring experience and help you achieve professional results. Here are some of our favorite accessories and tools.

Essential Accessories

Pencil Cases & Storage

Keep your supplies organized and protected. Look for cases with individual slots to prevent pencil tips from breaking. Roll-up cases are great for portability, while standing organizers work well for desk setups.

Lightboxes & Light Pads

Perfect for tracing designs, transferring patterns, or working with multiple layers. LED lightboxes are thin, portable, and energy-efficient. Various sizes available from A5 to A3.

Magnifying Glasses & Lamps

Essential for detailed work and reducing eye strain. Magnifying lamps combine magnification with bright LED lighting. Handheld magnifiers are great for checking fine details.

Rulers & Templates

Useful for creating borders, straight lines, and geometric patterns. Circle templates, French curves, and stencils can add interesting elements to your coloring pages.

Color Charts & Swatches

Create your own color reference charts to see how your pencils and pens look on your preferred paper. Helps with color selection and planning your projects.

Fixative Sprays

Protect finished artwork from smudging and fading. Workable fixatives allow you to add more layers after spraying. Final fixatives provide permanent protection.

Comfort & Ergonomics

Ergonomic Grips

Cushioned grips that slide onto pencils and pens to reduce hand fatigue during long coloring sessions. Especially helpful for those with arthritis or hand pain.

Book Stands & Easels

Hold your coloring book at a comfortable angle to reduce neck and back strain. Adjustable stands work with various book sizes. Some include page holders to keep books open.

Task Lighting

Good lighting is crucial for accurate color work and preventing eye strain. Daylight LED lamps provide color-accurate lighting. Adjustable arms let you position light exactly where needed.

Advanced Tools

  • Blending Brushes: Soft brushes for blending colored pencil and pastel
  • Masking Tape: Low-tack tape for creating borders and protecting areas
  • Craft Knife: For precise cutting and creating custom stencils
  • Burnishing Tools: Smooth metal or plastic tools for burnishing colored pencil

Building Your Toolkit

You don't need every tool right away! Start with the basics and add tools as you discover what techniques you enjoy most. Many colorists find that a few quality tools serve them better than a large collection of mediocre ones.

Consider your coloring style, the space you have available, and your budget when selecting tools. Read reviews and watch demonstrations before investing in expensive equipment.
