Brayers

What are brayers?

Brayers are hand rollers used to apply ink, paint, or adhesive evenly across a surface. They are widely used in stamping, printmaking, and mixed media, as they allow you to achieve smooth coverage and creative textures. Brayers are a must-have for anyone working with large stamps, gel printing plates, or layered backgrounds.

Different types of brayers

At Vaessen Creative, brayers are part of the stamps & supplies collection. They come in different sizes, with small brayers ideal for adding detail and larger brayers perfect for covering big surfaces. Rubber brayers provide a smooth, even finish, while softer foam brayers can create textured or distressed effects. Some brayers also feature interchangeable rollers, allowing you to switch between surfaces depending on your project.

Creative hobbies & projects with brayers

Brayers are perfect for a variety of hobbies. In stamping, they help you apply an even layer of ink to large stamps for consistent impressions. In watercolour painting, brayers can be used to apply diluted paints or inks onto paper, creating textured backgrounds. Another inspiring idea is in children’s crafting, where brayers can be used with paint to make fun prints, patterns, and textures on large sheets of paper. With brayers, you can experiment with colour and texture in new ways.

Why choose brayers for your projects?

The main advantage of brayers is their ability to provide even coverage and unique textures. They make working with large surfaces much easier and open up creative possibilities for experimenting with paint, ink, and printmaking techniques.
