Through #CraftYourSummer, we're showcasing just how versatile and accessible the Pentel Arts range is, with inspiring projects and crafts that are suitable for all abilities. You don't need to be an expert to make something you're proud of – just a little creativity and the right tools. Whether you're an experienced crafter or picking up a Brush Sign Pen for the first time, we hope the campaign encourages everyone to enjoy the simple pleasure of creating. At the same time, we're continuing to support our retail partners with engaging marketing activity designed to drive awareness and encourage consumers into stores throughout the summer."
