**UPDATED February 2024 with links to the entire range of Distress Watercolor pencils as Ranger released the remaining colors - NOTE that Scorched Timber is sold individually because Picket Fence was included in the first set and it's not considered "part of the Distress color line". And there's now a 2 bundle of just the Picket Fence & Black Soot pencils which is AWESOME as those are my 2 most used ones so being able to buy just those is perfect.

When I ordered Tim’s watercolor pencils I told my husband I wanted to save my shavings. He just grinned and rolled his eyes. While he appreciates that I try to use all my crafty goodies he thinks I go too far. Your video validated my idea. Thank you so much! I somehow missed Jennifer talking about it. Kudos to you and our other crafting gurus for always being respectful of one another!!
It's neat that you pass on tips that you received from others. I have found that most members of this community are very giving to others. I appreciate that as I pass on your tips to my local group of crafters.
What a great idea and I liked how you organized the colors.. Thank you
Thank you for this video. I’ve wanted to dip my toe into watercolor but was a bit intimidated by it. Using some shavings will be a great start for me.
I came here after watching your Stamptember 2023 release with the 3D haunted house embossing folder. Thanks for supplying the link. I have never seen this before, and think it's a brilliant idea.
Glad u mentioned this from your fave stamp vid.
This is SO SMART!!
I bought Set 1, and this is exactly how I used the pencils my first time. Turned out well. I left the wet shavings in a palette. I wish I had your palette.
Thank you for the share, Amy. I will have to order the pallet on the next order. I've already been to Simon says twice today. I normally wet the pencil. That is so much accessible to all colors then what I'm doing.
Why is it so mesmerizing to watch you paint these swatches?!? I could watch this all day!!! 😀
well I'm glad you liked it lol ;)
I’ve got all 2 sets ordered (I actually got 2 full sets coming because I got such an amazing bargain) and I was already planning to do something like this and now I can’t wait :-)
You are SO right about the Distress color palette…. My fav thing is color continuity across mediums. Love it ! The quality of all the products I have used in the Distress line have been fantastic. Idk what took me SO long to get on board!!
I am in the middle of moving! Will order these when I get settled!
Thank you for sharing how you use your palette. I just bought one for the same purpose after seeing yours. I’m going to close the lid and make tiny labels for each well on cover. Enjoy all your videos Amy! GBU!👍😁💕
Really a very good idea and very helpfull. Thank you!
I havent jumped on these yet, but this looks like an awesome idea, its fun to see you organize things and make swatches, theres something so satisfying about doing things like this. I'll keep an eye out for future projects, i might be convinced to add these to my distress collection, plus they look so pretty in the tins😉💕❤💛💚💙💜
Love it! Thanks so much for sharing the idea you found that someone else had shared. That's one of the things that's so nice about the crafting community, helping each other in whatever way we can. Have a wonderful weekend! 🙂
This is such a great idea, Amy! It makes the colors accessible and inspiring in one fell swoop! Bless you both!
Fantastic idea ❤️ thanks for sharing and happy crafting Hugs xx
You've talked me into getting these pencils now too! Brilliant idea.
Bloody brilliant I love this idea. Thanks for sharing xx
Brilliant idea, so clever. 👏👏
That is a lot of fun!
Mine just came today! So excited to try them out! I need to get that pencil sharpener!
Wow! So cool!!
Watching this was therapeutic! 😊 Loved it.
Brilliant
!!!!
The most brilliant idea I have seen in ages. So smart Amy.
Brilliant! What a way to extend their use! TFS, Amy!
Thank you for this, I have a carpal tunnel syndrome as well so this is great. X
Thanks Amy! All great info❤️
What a great idea, Amy!!! Thank you!!! ♥️♥️♥️🥰🥰🥰🌺🌺🌺
Wow love this idea. ,!,
I love this idea, wetting shavings in the palette is great idea.
I love this idea! I have already ordered the distress watercolor pencils! And I am pretty sure this will be a project for me! Thank you!
I’ve watched this twice and really appreciate the idea
What an inventive and terrific idea! Kudos to her (and you) for sharing on TH-cam. I want to get these soon. ❣❣❣
Another craft item I have to have!!! I have watercolor pencils but watercolor pencils that march the TH distress inks - even better especially since i am building my collection. I was in awe at how nice and even your tiny swatch's were and then laughed at myself when you said used a ruler and pencil! GENIUS!!! Sharing is caring!
Love this
WOW…I LOVE THIS IDEA!!!! I’ve been on the fence about getting these, but as I’ve watched more videos I HAVE TO GET THEM☺️.
Love it! I was wondering how to use the shavings. Great idea. Thanks for sharing!
Love this!! And just the swatches are gorgeous! I only have 1 set …so far!
I bought the entire set based on THIS video! I don’t enjoy pencil coloring, but this??? It’s amazing! Thanks for all of you hints!
I haven't gotten these watercolor pencils yet... however, I do have another brand, and this is a FANTASTIC idea for all of them!! Thanks for sharing this Amy!!
These were gifted to me so now I need to do this. Cheiron Brandon also had a great version of this. So good. Love both.
I just found this fantastic video! I absolutely love watching your watercolor with the new distress pencils! I just hot them and love them as well agree incredibly fun! 🙌🤩 cant to see you as you do more colorful cards with them. Im continually learning 🙌🤩😂🤩
Oh Amy! Thank you so much for sharing your process of making this palette and color swatch sheet. I know what I am doing today. Thank you, from one OCD gal to another. 😘
Good ideas. Thank you. 💜
Amy, I am so glad you did this video. I have been thinking of getting some watercolour pencils but had no idea which ones, seeing this solved the problem for me. Many thanks for your ideas and great explanations.
Amazing idea! I’m so happy you passed on this idea to us, & so glad that someone else shared it first so it could be passed on. Wow! Thank you for showing in depth how you did this. I haven’t gotten Tim’s pencils yet, but I do have others. Perhaps this would work with them. I’ll have to find out.
This is brilliant. My pencils have not arrived yet, so I have time to get ready. Thank you so much for doing this. Love all your work.
This is genius thank you
What???? Mind blown! I wasn’t sure about saving the shavings either and you have just changed my mind. Now I need that palette!
This is a way cool idea! Never would I have thought to do this
haha me either - it's why I always try to give credit for the awesome ideas I come across b/c it definitely wasn't me that came up with it LOL!!
Cool!
OK you are "talking me into" picking these up! I LOVE spending time with you via video at the end of my day :)
❤️❤️❤️❤️
What a great idea!! Omg. I am right there with you!! When Tim said he was gonna just dump all of the pencils in one tray I literally cringed!! Perfectly fine for some but I need them to stay in their original house!! Thanks again. Take care ❤️
Thanks so much for sharing this awesome tip.
Awesomeness. TFS
Brilliant 👏
Great idea thanks for sharing
I had planned on doing this as well and I’m glad to see that it works. lol. I am still waiting for my pencils to arrive from Simon and I already have one of the pallets, so I will now go order the pencil sharpener. My current one is a large electric sharpener which won’t work. Thank you for sharing this!
Such a wonderful video my crafty friend❤️. Thank you for sharing and the shout out🤗😘. I've been watching your videos for years and love them all.
You are so welcome
Good idea.
Thank you
Great idea! I actually have one of those pallets that’s never been used.
I happened to have an empty one on hand (and now need to order a couple more b/c who knows when I'll need another one for something random lol) and I'm so glad I did this ;)
What an awesome tip! There is nothing wrong with being OCD (Obviously Compulsive Designer)! I WISH I was more like that.
My husband claims I have HSD (Horizontal Surface Disease)…if I see a horizontal surface, I WILL place a craft item on it!
I like that the sharpener provided very fine shavings, which seemed to be easier to work with and liquidized easier. Your videos always make my day.
Thank you!
the sharpener is great - tho it honestly wouldn't matter for this. The shavings will absorb the water regardless if you let it sit for a while ;)
@@PrairiePaperandInk Good to know. Thanks!
The first video I saw about these pencils I told my husband that I should find something to put shavings in the be able to get use of these full pencils. I just couldn’t see throwing away the pure pigment shavings. Yours is the 2nd video I’ve seen doing this and I’m looking for my pencils in the mail so I can make a palette of my own. Thanks for passing this great idea on!
I usually don't get hung up over shavings or tiny scraps of things etc (b/c otherwise I'd obsess over EVERYTHING) BUT - in this instance it just makes sense and works. And even if a person doesn't want to make a palette this is proof that these pencils have a TON of life in each pencil so sharpening them won't shorten their lifespan if that makes sense IMO
A new watercolor palate!
Can you do these with Caran D’Ache watercolor pencils???
probably since they're woodless. I don't have them so I can't say for sure but you can try out one and see what happens
Amy, thanks for the video. Can you tell us the order that you put the colors? Is it according to set?
rainbow order
Although this looks like a great idea, it because these pencils are woodless, they will last longer than any of us will love. You can either scribble on paper, then pickup color. Or brush to tip. Just seems like a lot of work for the same pallet as inks etc. have fun with your new pallet
I've shown both ways, and like I said in the video this just worked since I wanted to sharpen the pencils anyway so I wasn't going out of my way to sharpen and make this palette and FOR ME this palette makes perfect sense since this is how I prefer to use them anyway
I first saw this exact method for saving the shavings on Tami B.'s TH-cam channel, and another similar method on another TH maker's YT channel where she used 1/2 pan watercolor pans magneted inside a Distress mini archival ink tin with the plastic divider removed. All ways work, and are brilliant - I think saving the shavings is genius because there really is a lot of usable material that would otherwise be thrown away, and you've just made yourself a Distress watercolor palette! What's cool about these no-wood, all-pigment "lead" pencils is that the wrapper has little slits in it that you can peel back gradually to expose more pigment lead, so you won't get paper shavings in with your pigment shavings! I smashed the Take My Money! button the day Tim introduced these pencils and got all 3 sets, now I just need that alcohol ink palette to make one like yours!
I couldn’t find these on Amazon..where did you order them from? They definitely look like fun ❤❤
everything I used is listed and linked in the description box under the video
do you know what the difference is between the alchohol palette and the distress ink palette? would either be ok do you know? love your video and want to replicate
there is no difference other than the label - same palette :)
I don't have Instagram, so I just follow you 😉
I used to LOVE IG - and promote it heavily. They've changed it so much that I'm not much of a fan anymore. I still post there and follow a bunch of people but my FB page is way easier to keep up with and navigate now (which I never thought would happen b/c FB is a cesspool LOL - but my little corner for Prairie Paper & Ink is a good spot 😉)
@@PrairiePaperandInk it definitely is Amy!
I recently got a FB account but it has changed so much since 2011, that I rarely visit fb
I follow a few people here on TH-cam, and I am pretty happy with that. 😜
Thank you for all you do!
What was the other ladies name you mentioned thanks for great idea
Her name and link are below the video in the description
What order of pencils did you use to create your pallet?
Rainbow order
Amy, if I want to buy more than one thing, using your affiliate links, how do I do that? When I click on each one it takes me to a separate SSS page for each one. I would love to have you get credit for each item!
no worries there - you only need to click on one thing. If you then place an order (for whatever you want - you don't even have to order the item you clicked on) after clicking on one of my affiliate links I will get credit for the order! I appreciate it! ❤️
Oh that is awesome! Seems only fair you get the credit for inspiring me and doing all the work you do!
Audio??????
what?
Read up on OCD. YOU DON’T HAVE OCD! OCD controls your life and you can’t think about or do anything else. It’s hard getting up in the morning because you know the day is going to be filled with counting and checking and washing and scrubbing your hands until they are raw and bleeding. OCD requires medicine and therapy and being properly diagnosed by a psychiatrist. I’m glad you don’t have OCD because I do and it’s a horrible way to live. 😢
there's a big difference between mild/borderline OCD (which is actually quite common in a large percentage of people and yes I am one of them) and full blown OCD which yes is debilitating and VERY difficult for those living with it. I "make light" of mine b/c while it's annoying (to me) I don't need medication for it (right now anyway but that may change) but it does affect day to day life but isn't debilitating (it's just the icing on top of other issues I deal with that aren't relevant to what I post online). That said I never have nor never will make light of those living with OCD and all the challenges it creates.
Brilliant!
