Ebay can be a source for low cost pastels. I bought this little set
well over a year ago and haven't used them much at all, due to that
irritating wrapper.
As you can see in the first photo, I put the bits into piles of like-colors, then I crushed them up, added distilled water, and made new, whole pastels. I added other pieces to change the color as well. Then formed them into shapes I like and let dry.
Now this set is fully usable, and after all this time, its almost like having a new set! Although not original to the set, it came to me in this sweet little wooden box, which I will more than likely make into a pochade box at another time.
