Finding Things That Aren't Lost

I was rummaging around in the warehouse (a.k.a., area of unkown and forgotten things in my art room), and I found two more little watercolor sets. 

 My goal is to weed out and thin out the things I don't use.  It's a slow process (probably because I don't work on that project very much).  So, before I put these in the Out box, of course I had to try them out to see if they were worthy of keeping. 

And of course, by the time I did that, I totally forgot what I was rummaging for in the first place.  But that's my life, and I'm happy in it. 

I'm embarassed to tell you what this mystery object is.  More about that later...
