2nd step: Draw circles to guide you

Using a compass and your mechanical pencil, begin to draw circles of different sizes. Overlapping your circles will lead to a better result!

Ideal for all types of drawing, even the most technical, our luxury mechanical pencil is an exceptional tool!

3rd step: Draw your hexagons

Next, using your Uni Paint marker in the colour of your choice (here we have used silver, gold and blue), and your ruler, draw hexagons over the circles you previously drew.

Our Uni Paint markers are simply ideal for decoration and customisation and defy all competition thanks to the opaque colours and extra-quick dry!

For a clean result to complete your pegboard, rub out any visible pencil outlines. Once the marker lines have dried, there is no risk of smudging!
