We just used acrylic craft paint, but I did buy some metallic and glitter paint to "punch things up" a little. The metallic was great. The glitter was more transparent, so it needs to be layered over another color.
I wanted a way to let the pencils dry without holding or propping them and decided that modeling clay (Dollar Store) blobs worked great. Just stick the eraser in the clay. I also got pre-sharpened pencils so there was something unpainted to hold on to on both ends.
Or, you can hang them from your nose!
Try dots, stripes, swirls, words, hombre (gradually light to dark) or any other ideas you can think of to decorate your pencils.
