Paper Rolls, Wooden Palettes and Easel Accessories
The small parts that finish an easel order: paper rolls for children's easels, wooden palettes and the accessories that keep a model usable after the first sale.
A peripherals line exists for one commercial reason: the easel sells once, and the paper roll, the palette and the spare tray sell again. This part of the catalogue is deliberately small at launch - three subcategories - because a buyer adds these to an easel order rather than building a range out of them, and the useful specification is short: width and length for a roll, size and wood for a palette, and the model each accessory fits.
The paper roll is the model most often bought wrong. A roll has a width, a length and a core, and the core is what decides whether it fits the holder on the easel it was bought for. The trade reference sizes in the market are around 43-45 cm wide and 10-45 m long, and the roll holders on children's easels are built to one or two of those widths. The pages here state the width and the core per model so the roll and the easel can be matched before the order, not after it.

Open Easel Accessories →What buyers check first in this line
- Match the roll core to the holder before anything else: a 25 mm core roll will not sit on a spindle cut for a 40 mm core, and the holder is not adjustable.
- Check the roll length against the price point you are building. A 10 m roll and a 45 m roll are different retail offers even at the same width, and the length is what the customer runs out of first.
- Ask for the palette thickness. A thin palette warps with water and a thick one does not; the thickness is the number a retail buyer checks against the photograph.
- Confirm the accessory is recorded against a specific easel model rather than described as universal. Universal usually means it fits the models the supplier had in front of them that week.
- Order a small trial of any accessory that has to fit a moving part - a tray, a spindle, a clamp - because the tolerance on a moulded or turned part is not visible on a drawing.

FAQ — Paper Rolls, Palettes & Easel Parts
What size paper roll fits a children's easel?
It depends on the holder, and the holder is built for one or two widths. The trade reference widths are around 43 cm to 45 cm, and the roll lengths on the market run from about 10 m to about 45 m. A roll with a 25 mm core will not fit a holder cut for a 40 mm spindle, so the core matters as much as the width. Each roll model in this catalogue states its width, length and core, and the children's easel pages state whether a roll holder is fitted.
Are the palettes suitable for both oil and acrylic?
A wooden palette is a working surface, and the wood surface behaves differently with oil and with acrylic. Oil sits on a sealed or oiled palette and can be wiped; acrylic is water-borne and will raise the grain of an unsealed palette if it is left wet. The palettes in this line are sold by size, species and thickness, and the finish is stated where the supplier records it. For a class or workshop buyer the practical advice is to order a sealed finish or seal them locally before first use.
Do easel accessories fit models from other suppliers?
Sometimes, but we do not claim it. A tray, a spindle or a clamp is matched to the model it was made for, and the pages here name the models each accessory is recorded against. Where a buyer wants a part for another brand's easel, the honest answer is to measure the fitting - spindle diameter, tray width, the distance between the arms - and ask whether that measurement appears on any model in this catalogue. We will not describe a part as universal to win the enquiry.
