TTRPG Hobby Tips: The Puppy Pad!

TTRPG Hobby Tips - Puppy Pads for the Crafting Win! 

If you’re into painting your own miniatures for your tabletop RPGs, then you know that a workspace can get messy. Even when you try your best to keep things tidy, the inevitable happens. A water splash, paint fumble, or dropped brush makes a work of abstract art out of your clothes, table, or floor. 

Clean & Creative Craft Help

One item that will help keep your table paint and water free is the simple Puppy Pad. Yes, these pads that help train little pooches also are also perfect for keeping your workspace clean. 

Their purpose is to trap liquid under the first layer of padding without leaking through to the surface below. So light spills are no problem, even on your nice table or workbench. Wash off your brush and simply wipe it on the pad to dry. 

The puppy pad is also great for adjusting the amount of paint on your brush, especially when prepping for dry brushing techniques. Each pad is large enough for a generous workspace and when dry, just fold it up and reuse it. A single puppy pad can last for several miniature painting sessions and save your table or workbench from even serious paint or water fumbles. 

Puppy pads are quite affordable and come in packs that will last for months. Perfect for group paint sessions too.
