Rainbow Pencils function like regular wooden pencils, and are the same size and weight, but theyâre not made from wood, theyâre made from lots of layers of recycled waste paper. So the shavings / sharpenings look like rainbows.

Making Rainbows
You donât need a special sharpener to make rainbows, but a sharp, good quality one will help you make better ones. To improve your rainbows, you can try sharpening from the other end of the pencil, using a better sharpener or applying a more constant force when turning the pencil. Trying to make the perfect rainbow is all part of the fun!
Finish
Each pencil is printed with logo on one side and ârainbow pencil by duncan shottonâ on the other. The outer (black, white or light grey) layers of each pencil are also made from recycled paper. The finish of each pencil is therefore never âperfectâ and will contain marks and imperfections, as is standard of recycled paper.
