ART ATTACK

Aldi is now selling paint, brushes and easels so you can get creative at home

Whether you're an experienced artist or just starting out - you can find savings on a whole host of art supplies

BARGAIN supermarket Aldi has launched a contemporary art range, which includes a whole host of products from paints and brushes, to canvases.

The selection includes some great savings on products that you could be paying a premium price for if you bought them from specialist art suppliers.

Prices start from just £3.99, with the goods available in stores from September 16. You can also pre-order items online from September 9.

At the top end of the range is a 90 piece art set which includes paints, pens, pencils and brushes for £14.99.

We found a similar 90 piece set for almost £12 more on Amazon for £27.

Meanwhile, if you decide to buy an acrylic paint set from a specialist art shop you could pay over £50. In comparison, Aldi’s offering costs just £6.99.

Alongside the paint sets, you can also get your hands on a canvas set for £3.99. This includes three pre-stretched canvases that are ready for you to paint on.

We found a similar three pack of canvases in Hobbycraft which cost slightly more at £5.

A table easel is also included in the range, which collapses down for storage, for £12.99.

This is £3 less than Amazon where a similar easel will cost you £16.

In addition, the range includes a set of 10 paint brushes for £4.99 - a half price saving compared to Hobbycraft where you can buy the same number of brushes for £10.

You’ll have to hurry if you want to get your hands on the range though, as it’s a part of the supermarket’s Specialbuys. These are popular with customers and usually sell out fast.

Can our taste testers tell the difference between Aldi and Lidl lookalike products compared to original sweets and snacks they aim to copy?
