Your Masterson Stay Wet palette should have come with a sponge that stays under the plasticky palette paper sheets. If it didn't, I'd recommend reaching out to Masterson. You get the sponge damp and that little bit of humidity is what keeps your paints wet.
I learned both crocheting and knitting as an adult. I’m still pretty much a beginner at most as I don’t do them a lot. For me, one of the trickiest parts was figuring out if I crochet/knit left or right-handed. I do some things left-handed (including writing) and some things right-handed. Turns out, like with instruments, I’m more comfortable crocheting and knitting right-handed. It also makes sense because I once tried to learn crochet as a kid, from my great aunt, but I think I tried it left-handed and couldn’t get the hang of it.
Unfortunately, not everyone can learn how from videos or at all. I've tried by having someone show me, videos and books...it's just not for everyone. However, those who catch it and can...more power to them because it really can be tricky to learn. ❤
I knit a little, and would like to be able to crochet, but something about it breaks my brain. I got a hook and tried following some tutorials, but couldn't successfully make a basic chain. I just can't seem to figure out how to hold on to everything simultaneously; I'm always dropping the yarn or the hook or having the yarn go flying off the hook, etc. I'm sure it's one of those things where it's easy once it "clicks," but I've not gotten it to click.
In a year before you get your stuff out of storage you should do an update video where you show all the additional things you’ve had to purchase and what you haven’t used. 😆
I’m married already, but I LOVE wedding art hacks! Most of them you can also apply to birthday parties, baptism, etc. Would love to see you do some art hacks for your wedding
FYI: Dollar Tree has that "poster paper" for 2 for a $1! I use those to paint a potential wall color so I can move a large swatch of the color around the room to see what it will look like in different areas of the room
That is such a great idea! Thank you, I’m just about to paint my bed room after not being happy with the colour of the last room I painted (so much darker than I was expecting) and I’ve been hella nervous to start.
I can understand being frustrated about Putting Halloween stuff in a supermarket/walmart in July or putting Christmas stuff up in September, but its actually really smart in a crafts supply shop. It means you have tonnes of time to make gifts and stuff with in theme items. Also if you run a small hobby business, you need to get things ready way in advance of the celebration. My sister in law does pottery and she starts making pottery pumpkins for Halloween in April. Also you really need to try out Golden Fluid Acrylics. They are the Italian kiss.
having moved country 3 times, i know the nightmare of setting up an art studio from scratch pretty well. Its always going to suck, but in someways its nice to have the clean slate to hone in on the supplies you really love and need
This video reminds me of that time in art school when I got onto the metro to go to class with my toolbox full of art supplies, set it down next to me for a minute to grab something from my backpack, and then it was just gone when I went to pick it up. Big sad/angry feelings. I had some stuff in my backpack, obviously, but I did have to do a lot of rebuying over the next while, including my watercolours, and a lot of my brushes and mediums. I had to be very careful in the choices I made when replacing what I'd lost. I needed to immediately be able to make things, but also take care that my new supplies didn't break the bank. It was an interesting challenge.
My niece had the heart guest frame at her wedding. It turned out really cute. I used rub and buff silver on the frame. Not a big wedding so there were blank hearts left. We wrote different inspirational words on those. ❤
I haven't painted in over 10 years, but my sister's kids spent two weeks with me this summer and the oldest one is taking after their mother (she has a fine arts degree) so we spent a lot of time going to arts and crafts stores getting them supplies. At one point we looked over my stash and it was old, crusty, dried out, and just plain embarrassing. Your video came at the perfect time, you've given me a great starting point to rekindle a lost passion, thank you Chloe!
😉 We heard you slip in how your doc told you to take prenatal vitamins. Well, whatever may or may not be going on in your life right now, I hope you're happy, well, and taking care of yourself. Congratulations and good luck with the engagement, wedding plans, looking for a new place, your new art supplies, and...anything else. 😅
7:40 There's a reason for this! In craft stores, they wanna give customers enough time to feasibly complete their creative projects before that season actually rolls around, so they pull out the stock for later seasons a whole season early. For little things like decorative pumpkins, you might not need much time at all, but if you're making an extravagant costume or a large display, it's gonna take the average 40-hour-week worker a good long while to finish. That's why you see fall stuff in craft stores while generic and clothing stores are still pushing their summer wares. It doesn't explain why non-craft retail stores routinely trample over Halloween with snowmen and reindeer, but it's noticeable that those other retail stores don't push other seasons early while craft stores do.
@@sarahschreffler5407 A lot of people are reaaaally into halloween and go absolutely feral for stuff coming out early. they probably keep putting it out earlier and earlier because they sell out of a lot of things really early and they are trying to beat last years sells/demands.
After having done a course in soft pastels....they can be a lot of fun to paint with on their own :) Just gotta get sanded pastel paper to work with! Its a very textured medium.
I've moved waaaay too many times!! 🤦♀️ A huge tip I would give you is to get the huge sharpie. It has about a 1 inch chisel tip!! It is dark black and stinks to high heaven, but worth it!! 🤗 Use that to label each and every box. Make each letter at least two inches high to label room on each box!! On ALL sides of the box! Underneath that in smaller letters, label the contents. You are more likely to get things in the right room! Assume you will not be the one placing things, people will be in a hurry, and if using movers, they may or may not be the best readers. It is important to keep room labels short and easy. Fun to go with you shopping!! 💕 I hope you find your two boxes of supplies!! 👍
We lost everything including my beloved cat 😭 in a fire a year ago & we are still in temporary accommodation (will be for the next year too). I spent the first nine months pretty much curled up in a ball doing nothing, I was so scared of getting anything dirty in this rented space. I've now started to get a few bit together & started to join in with the monthly swaps on my craft FB groups. It's actually taught me to think outside the box and I've had to be inventive! I started with a job-lot of inks & stamps being sold on Ebay but the best investment for me is a really good paper trimmer. Congratulations on your engagement 🙂
The teal paint bottle from golden is from their “liquid” line, it’s about the consistency of whole milk, not toothpaste like their heavy body (the tubes). Golden’s different lines are made so they can be used in the same piece, but they do have different use cases they each shine in.
That’s a bummer your supplies are stuck in storage for awhile, however at least they’re hopefully not lost forever. Your new haul is nice and I can’t wait to see what you make with them. My HIMI gouache is in a mint green case too. I have both the white gelly rolls and white uni balls. I also have a lot of gel pens in general.
Haha you forgot to fill up Jazzas bag, I was waiting to see Let’s see my favorite art supplies I couldn’t go without: -Col-erase prismacolor pencils, specifically Tuscan Red color -AlteNew alcohol markers (my fav brand) -Uncoated wood free paper - Zebra Fude brush pen extra fine and medium -Pentel Hi-Polymer erasers -A watercolor palette, I’m not picky sometimes I just like playing with watercolor so I wouldn’t wanna be without one for a year and a water brush to use with it And if I could get ahold of them which is unlikely (I only have some cause I found them at a thrift store) a set of vintage Eagle Turquoise Prismacolor pencils
I love to use chalk pastels for sidewalk chalk drawings/paintings. Where I live, we have something every year called a "Chalk Festival," where artists from all over come and do sidewalk drawings using chalk pastels.
totally agree about the signo white pen! i've tried many but they don't cover enough or sometimes they make like a double line and it's very annoying, the signo needs only one passage, and is great
Rather than a pencil or chalk, I do watercolor pencil in a purple grey shade to sketch for my watercolor painting. You can either erase it with an eraser or water. If it does show on the edge the purple grey color looks like a shadow.
I use Mastersons Sta-Wet palettes for my acrylic painting process. So I was very concerned to see that your palette didn’t come with the magic sponge that keeps the moisture within your palette. But after researching I realized that the one you got in particular doesn’t include one as it’s mostly used for oils. I hope it really works for you and you don’t get discouraged to use them if this one doesn’t do the job 😬
ooo thats interesting, I wonder why?? Perhaps this is a new design that doesnt need it? Does yours take a while to get the lid off because it was almost suctioned on there so I wonder if they have a different seal that doesn't require the sponge now?? Thanks for letting me know!
@@ChloeRoseArt I buy sham wows from the dollar store for mine and they work exactly the same and cost less :) I also found from an art teacher that if you mist the top, and put it in the fridge, you get even better results.
@@ChloeRoseArt The one you got with the blue lid is the same one I have, it's a "palette seal". The reason it doesn't come with a sponge is because it is meant for a wooden or glass palette, but you can use it with the sponges too if you want. It's dang near airtight so that's why it's hard to get the lid off. I use a 12"x16" glass palette in it, and when I used open acrylics it would keep my paints wet pretty much forever just by keeping a wet paper towel balled up in a corner. I've since switched to oils and it keeps them from skinning over, and keeps the cat hair out.
I would absolutely love to see some diy wedding things! I’m getting married in October and am trying to diy as much as possible. I’ve done my centrepieces and bouquets and am having a ton of fun with it so I would love to see some more ideas!! Congratulations!🎉
I have tried a ton of different erasers and my personal favorite is the Faber Castell pencil erasers. You can sharpen them and they can get into tight corners/small spaces. They don't leave a lot of dust or anything. Definitely recommend trying them. I don't like kneadable erasers either.
I really hope you are able to get all the supplies you need. I hope you know you don't need to come out with *new* and *fresh* ideas when your income is dependent on things you have to buy from scratch. I'd love to hear the story of how you got engaged or a home renovation/moving in video or whatever! We are not just fans of your art - we're fans of you and so excited for this next chapter of your life 🙂
What if our favorite YT artists did an art product supply mystery sampler collab box !?! All packed in one of the Jazza mini bags ! What an awesome mix to imagine ! After nightmare box last week, thought what would be in a dream box ? Thought of you & all the collaborations you have done with other artists, then you mentioned the art bag. Perfect carrier for everyone's products. That would be fun. Congratulations on your happily ever after too !
While I’m not into wedding stuff ( having your life go to hell and lose who were supposed be your family and friends betray you does that) seeing you test out wedding/ party art hacks would be interesting and I’m sure others would appreciate it. Congratulations on your engagement 🎉
Black and white posca, maybe a brown and gray too, of different thickness for details and outlines... It is so hard to do details with a brush sometimes so one of those comes in real handy every now and then for me.
I actually have one of those pallet boxes. While yes, they can preserve the paint for reuse, the paint WILL still dry out over time. It will just take a lot longer. Honestly? Best to use up the paint after a good few days of it sitting or else you'll have wasted it or added to your new Jackson Pollock esque piece- if you don't change out your pallet paper like I did, that is.
You got the beautiful bag! Speaking on Phtalo Blue and Green, that one is called Phtalo Turqouise! (in the kickstarter. I personally call it petrol =D ) We do need more people to back it though! The more people, the more colors can be produced, and more art stuff included! (stretch goals) And yes, there is a STUFFED version with art supplies! You could get it, and have some more nice art supplies in December =D I am crocheying while watching this. And I learned through a set like that at a ripe age of 30 something. You can learn too, it is very fun! (especially amigurumi, like you found)
I would love to see your wedding hacks and crafts. It would be so fun for anyone who is excited about planning their wedding, or anyone who’s just interested in hacks and crafts (like me lol)
My aunt and I made all the bouquets and boutineers (sp?) for my wedding. We used old paperback books and I did a light airbrush of color on the tips. The handle was River's sonicscrewdriver from Doctor Who. Our first date was to see Doctor Who in the theater. 😊
We just "rented for a year" between selling and buying houses. We wound up with three storage units and renting the "in between" house for 2 years before we found the right house to buy next. We also spent most of our profit from the sale during that time. Anyway, I wish you better luck than we had!
Golden paint is soooooo expensive in Australia 😩 it's also hard to find any neon paints in aus (that aren't fluid) I think it's important to have a quality black and white paint (or whatever ever medium you use). Nice and opaque and pigmented 👌 I also have a giant bottle of white for mixing pastels 😅
I've had to replace my art materials a few times over in my life. Catastrophic not only because I'm "without", but I have many interests and as you well know EXPENSIVE. I've recently begun to rebuild, and it took me a few years to want to (and not just because I'd gone digital- love PROCREATE and can't live without it). It ate a bit at my self, and took some real mourning this time. The benefit of this, I'm trying new things (or old things I'd wished to have learned.) so I have to play, because for all I know, I actually have some new favorites. As to old, I love Zig calligraphy pens, though I love my old Rexall, I haven't used them in a bit, because they've changed ownership and not only are they different, so is my eyesight. But like you, I adore the Fudenosake markers by Tombow (they also make a great refillable pocket brush, that is fast becoming another fave to draw and calligraph with). I also come back over and over again to Pilot's B2P (bottle to pen) ballpoints, especially the black) for drawing my pen and ink. The Fudenosake and Zig add MORE punch when I want an OMGoodness black to my drawing. Right now playing with gouache and watercolor, though I work mainly in acrylic. I'm also using Arteza quite a bit, not only because they're relatively inexpensive, but they are quality enough. Love Strathmore multimedia sketch (reminds me to do a sketchbook tour, because I'd really like to get over my despite of sharing TH-cam and TikTok videos-I know I've not utilized them enough, I just feel old, awkward and not so attractive, but in the end, I think what's in my noggin' is more important, so ONE of the goals this upcoming year is to get over that shtuff.) Bought a few spoiled artist books to play with as well a Canson sketchbook. The next two will be the two you suggest, I've heard from many they are both good, but it's like good Chinese food. As much as I want to try something new, I KNOW I love what I love. Anyhow, fun videos, love the accent, and your art. Great good luck in the new place and congratulations on becoming engaged1
Hi Chloe I doubt you will see this but I’ve been watching a lot of your old videos recently and you’ve inspired me to try and start to paint so I just want to say thank you❤
Aa for "holy grail" art supplies - my favorite thing I tripped across recently is caran d'ache wax pastels. They have two types, one water soluble and one not, and I have both and LOVE them. They do exactly what I wish oil pastels would do, without the stink - and the water soluble ones can be painted with! So amazing.
Crocheting can be fun and relaxing and you can make cute things it might be great for a art pause to get you some finger exercises between drawing sessions
🎉congratulations Chloe for geting marred .at my cousins wedding she had blocks. That we could write on and put it in a box it was so nice and congratulations 🎉I love your videos I hope you get you art stuff back soon
Hey Chloe, love your videos! When you demonstrated the Masterson Sta-Wet Palette, I didn't notice the sponge that goes underneath the paper and keeps your paint from drying out.... Not sure if you didn't get that on purpose or or if that particular palette doesn't use the sponge. Thought I would give you a heads up though😊
My holy grail items (most are in my fav pencil case besides the painting supplies): Tombow knock 3.8 eraser w/refills Rinse well brush cleaner/water well Fluid brand watercolor blocks Sakura Quickie glue pens Kum long point pencil sharpener Uni a-gel mechanical pencil Pilot color Eno blue mech pencil Faber castell knetgummi kneadederaser
If I had to go for a whole year, I would buy watercolor first. Probably get the mission gold pure pigment set bc it’s a good price and very vibrant and you can mix anything with it and then also some tuner acryl gouache cause those are my babies. I would need a large etchr sketchbook and then a less expensive sketchbook aswell, maybe a gamma by stillman and birn or strathmore mixed media cotton
maybe you could have your art friends send you some art supplies they think are essential for someone starting new? like essential beginner stuff, essential intermediate stuff, essential pro stuff? and then you could compare what everyone sent and how much they agree or disagree?
Jazza's first art kit introduced me to that eraser... never going back to those pink ones! This will be an exciting year! It'll be a fun challenge working with less art supplies =)
When this video popped up, I stopped everything I was doing to watch. As an artist, that title really hit...right in the feels. But you make a good point! There's nothing like buying _new_ art supplies. And yeah, that art bag is pretty sweet. Ohhh! I _LOVE_ the Tombow markers! Do you refill yours? I started doing that a few years ago. I use Platinum Carbon Black and it's been excellent. I use it in my Kaimei brush pen too.
The things I used the most in my life are Steadler pencils and erasers, I can't live without them! Also anything from prisma color! I do really love liquitex and I use Pebeo acrylics also! They do one of the best gouache too! I really want to try the Golden and artist loft, I just don't when I'm gonna have the time 😅 Also, Never buy the brans Try art (Canadian brand), the tubes dried on me after few years... I have some tubes of Liquitex and Pebeo for over a decade and they're not dried at all!
1st - Never too early for Halloween!!! 😂 2nd - I feel your pain. Moved from NH to CA brought most my supplies with and bought more. Moved from CA to AZ - brought most supplies. AZ to NH - brought most and bought more. Moved NH to Australia. Hoarded art supplies in Australia… brought home as much as I could when I moved back to AZ. Lived with ex. More supplies. Left ex now staying with family. Supplies ended up in storage, and here. Parents moved to AZ from NH… brought more of my supplies with them I left behind. As of this week… it is all finally in one place… minus my crafting and cake decorating supplies. 😬 I need a house.
My favorite art supply is Turner Acryla Gouache!! If you haven't tried it, you very much should! Also, I just tried gold leaf for the first time, and it was super fun.
So I'm currently working part-time at [the store in your video] whilst working through a professional program in another field, and I wanted to comment on the seasonal change. It's true, we get a lot of comments from people like, "Halloween already?!" But at the same time, we also already have people asking for Christmas(!) stuff because they want to get started on Christmas projects "in time." I'm sure some of the logic in getting seasonal materials out early is so people can work them into crafts in advance of the season they would display them. I'm working on a project to knit winter scarves and hats for donations, and obviously I'm knitting them now, in the summer, or they won't be ready for winter! But it maybe does come across as weird to be knitting a scarf in July.
My holy grail are my watercolor palette that I well chose the colors myself. I love acrylic gouache by Holbein and turner . For acrylics, I love the matte finish so my number 1 go to is Le Franc Bourgeois flashe paints! These are amazing! Anyway hopefully your art supplies will be found soon… maybe they just having a break! 😅
Chloe…. When I got married in 2019 I had one of the drop boxes with hearts but it’s got our names and wedding date on the background and we had a box with all of the hearts with our wedding colors of sharpies (red, black and silver) and it turned out soooo cute after people wrote on them and dropped them in.
I did the same thing about moving fast and had to put everything in a storage unit. Then.........AN IDIOT BROKE INTO MY STORAGE UNIT AND STOLE EVERY THING!!!!!!! I was crushed my grand mother spinning wheel was in there. I had my Cricut and a bunch of other high end items I had bought over the years about $4,000 worth of stuff not exaggerating. If i could just get my Grand-Mothers Spinning Wheel back I would be so Happy. Now I am SLOOOWLY rebuilding my supplies and tools.
We had one of the little heart frames for my wedding too. Really easy way to have a lasting record of who was there without having a random book sitting around
Time to declutter - legit though it’s easy to acquire and not declutter the old acrylic. So when you open your art supplies Declutter right then and there!
Michael’s is ok for some art supplies, but mostly for crafting and student grade supplies. The professional art supplies they do have are overpriced because they don’t get the wholesale price breaks that, for, example, Blick’s does, and they also expect that you will use a coupon, which is only 20% off now, most of the time. Having said that though, bc I use crafting supplies or when they’re discontinuing an item, I shop fairly often at Michael’s AND I’ve gotten some killer deals…even on the occasional fine art items. You have to just go in and scour the the store shelves and clearance section, though. The “killer deals” I’ve found were just items that were being discontinued by Michael’s and that the store I was in wanted to quickly get it out of their inventory. I was blown away when I got some Winsor & Newton Professional oil brushes for $2 -$5, that normally sell for $10 -$18 or more. On another occasion, I got a set of 30 Caran d’Ache Supracolor2 water soluble color pencils for about $32/$33 dollars (it’s been a while.) These often sell for almost double that, even on Blick’s. So even if you don’t use some of the “killer deals” you come across, you can almost always resell them as long as you offer a reasonable price….and you’ll make a bit of a profit.👍
Starting over with a limited amount of supplies may challenge you. You may find some creative ideas you wouldn't have otherwise. Personally, I'm using liquid acrylics. I first bought them for painting sculptures and started trying to do some painting on canvas. For me they work fine because I'm not a professional artist. I can mix colors with them and I just like using them. 😃😃👋👋💖💖
I had the exact same reaction on seeing autumn stuff in The Range (UK Shop) last week and TK max had Halloween stuff LAST MONTH! Halloween isn’t a massive thing here either anyway! Madness!
Love all the art supplies! Acrylic is one medium I never tried until last year and I love it now! Good quality acrylic paints make all the difference! I Love Golden Acrylic paint!! 🙌
A bit odd but I swear by the Caran D'Ache Water soluable wax pastals. They're so colourful and being able to draw like an oil pastal then mix them with water is a game changer for me.
Great to see what your art essentials are, love this sort of video! :) I wouldn't be able to manage without coloured pencils - I'd go straight away and buy some Derwent Lightfast pencils (my faves), either in a 100 set, or open stock, my fave 30-40 or so colours, followed shortly by some of my fave loose Polychromos and Luminance colours. I'd also want a selection of both Winsor and Newton Professional and Daniel Smith Watercolour paints. I'd probably start with the WN Pro metal tin of 24 half pans and build my collection from there. (Plus Holbein Leaf Green and Manganese Blue Nova are two fave watercolours I would buy in tubes) For paper, I would get a Stillman and Birn sketchbook, (probably Beta for watercolour), as well as a nice medium grain cartridge paper sketchbook for just doodling with the coloured pencils. For paintings that I wanted to take more time over, I would get some Bockingford Hot press watercolour paper. :) I would also grab a Pentel Aquash waterbrush in a 'broad' size, as I can't live without one of those. Also a Uniball Eye Micro pen for rough paper linework, and a Faber Castel pitt pen in 0.3 for smooth paper linework.
Oof thats 1 thing I hate about moving... stuff going missing... And no I dont hirer "Movers" only friends and family that can help otherwise its me myself and I so i know nothing goes missing...
Awesome hall!! Always wanted to try gouache but too broke to get them 😅. Also I recommend trying out the infinite pencils (best place to buy them on a budget is temu which is where I got mine). I know ya don’t sketch much but having a pencil with an always pointed tip is definitely an upgrade even more so than mechanical pencils since these last MUCH longer, there are even some colored tipped ones although I haven’t tried those yet 👀
Hi!! You can get 50% off your first Care/Of Order with code CHLOEROSE50 here: bit.ly/3JlHGOr
Thanks for watching!
Your Masterson Stay Wet palette should have come with a sponge that stays under the plasticky palette paper sheets. If it didn't, I'd recommend reaching out to Masterson. You get the sponge damp and that little bit of humidity is what keeps your paints wet.
How can you not access it for a year. Does it have 1 year timer lock. The situation makes no sense
Chloe, you can 100% learn how to crochet. I taught myself one afternoon watching TH-cam and i've made blankets and stuff animals
I learned both crocheting and knitting as an adult. I’m still pretty much a beginner at most as I don’t do them a lot. For me, one of the trickiest parts was figuring out if I crochet/knit left or right-handed. I do some things left-handed (including writing) and some things right-handed. Turns out, like with instruments, I’m more comfortable crocheting and knitting right-handed.
It also makes sense because I once tried to learn crochet as a kid, from my great aunt, but I think I tried it left-handed and couldn’t get the hang of it.
I have recently got into crocheting and it’s so easy once you get into it so I 100% agree ❤❤
Unfortunately, not everyone can learn how from videos or at all. I've tried by having someone show me, videos and books...it's just not for everyone. However, those who catch it and can...more power to them because it really can be tricky to learn. ❤
Me too! Been crocheting for a year now. Still beginner level but i love it
I knit a little, and would like to be able to crochet, but something about it breaks my brain. I got a hook and tried following some tutorials, but couldn't successfully make a basic chain. I just can't seem to figure out how to hold on to everything simultaneously; I'm always dropping the yarn or the hook or having the yarn go flying off the hook, etc. I'm sure it's one of those things where it's easy once it "clicks," but I've not gotten it to click.
In a year before you get your stuff out of storage you should do an update video where you show all the additional things you’ve had to purchase and what you haven’t used. 😆
thats a great idea!
@ChloeRoseArt that would be the coolest idea. I'd watch it.
I’m married already, but I LOVE wedding art hacks! Most of them you can also apply to birthday parties, baptism, etc. Would love to see you do some art hacks for your wedding
Don't forget funerals
FYI: Dollar Tree has that "poster paper" for 2 for a $1! I use those to paint a potential wall color so I can move a large swatch of the color around the room to see what it will look like in different areas of the room
That is such a great idea! Thank you, I’m just about to paint my bed room after not being happy with the colour of the last room I painted (so much darker than I was expecting) and I’ve been hella nervous to start.
This is legit genius
I buy their foam boards to tape my canvas paper to
Mind blowing idea! Seriously I’m gonna use this in the future, thank you!
I can understand being frustrated about Putting Halloween stuff in a supermarket/walmart in July or putting Christmas stuff up in September, but its actually really smart in a crafts supply shop. It means you have tonnes of time to make gifts and stuff with in theme items. Also if you run a small hobby business, you need to get things ready way in advance of the celebration. My sister in law does pottery and she starts making pottery pumpkins for Halloween in April.
Also you really need to try out Golden Fluid Acrylics. They are the Italian kiss.
having moved country 3 times, i know the nightmare of setting up an art studio from scratch pretty well. Its always going to suck, but in someways its nice to have the clean slate to hone in on the supplies you really love and need
Oof I hate when things go missing that I use for art
And congrats on the new house 😁
I'd love to see you do some wedding related content! Congratulations btw ❤
This video reminds me of that time in art school when I got onto the metro to go to class with my toolbox full of art supplies, set it down next to me for a minute to grab something from my backpack, and then it was just gone when I went to pick it up.

Yes! Give us wedding craft hacks!!!! ❤ I'm a bridesmaid for a friend and I've been helping with craft stuff for her wedding!
“So we’re going to get these soft pastels… said no one ever” 😳 honestly I froze like what, why??? thank goodness you weren’t being serious 😂😂
hahahaha the things I see some people do and have the patience for when it comes to soft pastels is amazing honestly!
My niece had the heart guest frame at her wedding. It turned out really cute. I used rub and buff silver on the frame. Not a big wedding so there were blank hearts left. We wrote different inspirational words on those. ❤
I haven't painted in over 10 years, but my sister's kids spent two weeks with me this summer and the oldest one is taking after their mother (she has a fine arts degree) so we spent a lot of time going to arts and crafts stores getting them supplies. At one point we looked over my stash and it was old, crusty, dried out, and just plain embarrassing. Your video came at the perfect time, you've given me a great starting point to rekindle a lost passion, thank you Chloe!
😉 We heard you slip in how your doc told you to take prenatal vitamins. Well, whatever may or may not be going on in your life right now, I hope you're happy, well, and taking care of yourself. Congratulations and good luck with the engagement, wedding plans, looking for a new place, your new art supplies, and...anything else. 😅
7:40 There's a reason for this! In craft stores, they wanna give customers enough time to feasibly complete their creative projects before that season actually rolls around, so they pull out the stock for later seasons a whole season early. For little things like decorative pumpkins, you might not need much time at all, but if you're making an extravagant costume or a large display, it's gonna take the average 40-hour-week worker a good long while to finish. That's why you see fall stuff in craft stores while generic and clothing stores are still pushing their summer wares. It doesn't explain why non-craft retail stores routinely trample over Halloween with snowmen and reindeer, but it's noticeable that those other retail stores don't push other seasons early while craft stores do.
Honestly--Halloween comes out WAY too early and I'm just fine with the snowmen and reindeer for a respite by the time they come ot
@@sarahschreffler5407 A lot of people are reaaaally into halloween and go absolutely feral for stuff coming out early. they probably keep putting it out earlier and earlier because they sell out of a lot of things really early and they are trying to beat last years sells/demands.
After having done a course in soft pastels....they can be a lot of fun to paint with on their own :) Just gotta get sanded pastel paper to work with! Its a very textured medium.
I've moved waaaay too many times!! 🤦♀️ A huge tip I would give you is to get the huge sharpie. It has about a 1 inch chisel tip!! It is dark black and stinks to high heaven, but worth it!! 🤗 Use that to label each and every box. Make each letter at least two inches high to label room on each box!! On ALL sides of the box! Underneath that in smaller letters, label the contents. You are more likely to get things in the right room! Assume you will not be the one placing things, people will be in a hurry, and if using movers, they may or may not be the best readers. It is important to keep room labels short and easy. Fun to go with you shopping!! 💕 I hope you find your two boxes of supplies!! 👍
We lost everything including my beloved cat 😭 in a fire a year ago & we are still in temporary accommodation (will be for the next year too). I spent the first nine months pretty much curled up in a ball doing nothing, I was so scared of getting anything dirty in this rented space. I've now started to get a few bit together & started to join in with the monthly swaps on my craft FB groups. It's actually taught me to think outside the box and I've had to be inventive! I started with a job-lot of inks & stamps being sold on Ebay but the best investment for me is a really good paper trimmer. Congratulations on your engagement 🙂
I’m so sorry about your precious cat. He’s waiting in heaven ✝️🙏🏼🩷 until then… ♥️
The teal paint bottle from golden is from their “liquid” line, it’s about the consistency of whole milk, not toothpaste like their heavy body (the tubes). Golden’s different lines are made so they can be used in the same piece, but they do have different use cases they each shine in.
Those Uni white pens are TOP TIER!!! I absolutely ADORE them, especially when working with black paper
That’s a bummer your supplies are stuck in storage for awhile, however at least they’re hopefully not lost forever.
Your new haul is nice and I can’t wait to see what you make with them.
My HIMI gouache is in a mint green case too. I have both the white gelly rolls and white uni balls. I also have a lot of gel pens in general.
Haha you forgot to fill up Jazzas bag, I was waiting to see
Let’s see my favorite art supplies I couldn’t go without:
-Col-erase prismacolor pencils, specifically Tuscan Red color
-AlteNew alcohol markers (my fav brand)
-Uncoated wood free paper
- Zebra Fude brush pen extra fine and medium
-Pentel Hi-Polymer erasers
-A watercolor palette, I’m not picky sometimes I just like playing with watercolor so I wouldn’t wanna be without one for a year and a water brush to use with it
And if I could get ahold of them which is unlikely (I only have some cause I found them at a thrift store) a set of vintage Eagle Turquoise Prismacolor pencils
I love to use chalk pastels for sidewalk chalk drawings/paintings. Where I live, we have something every year called a "Chalk Festival," where artists from all over come and do sidewalk drawings using chalk pastels.
So you didn't lose ALL your art supplies, they're just misplaced lol (click bait?) Little extreme.
totally agree about the signo white pen! i've tried many but they don't cover enough or sometimes they make like a double line and it's very annoying, the signo needs only one passage, and is great
Me too! I think I've tried them all at this point, and the signos are the ones I keep going back to.
Rather than a pencil or chalk, I do watercolor pencil in a purple grey shade to sketch for my watercolor painting. You can either erase it with an eraser or water. If it does show on the edge the purple grey color looks like a shadow.
I use Mastersons Sta-Wet palettes for my acrylic painting process. So I was very concerned to see that your palette didn’t come with the magic sponge that keeps the moisture within your palette. But after researching I realized that the one you got in particular doesn’t include one as it’s mostly used for oils. I hope it really works for you and you don’t get discouraged to use them if this one doesn’t do the job 😬
You can buy the sponge separately
ooo thats interesting, I wonder why?? Perhaps this is a new design that doesnt need it? Does yours take a while to get the lid off because it was almost suctioned on there so I wonder if they have a different seal that doesn't require the sponge now?? Thanks for letting me know!
@@ChloeRoseArt I buy sham wows from the dollar store for mine and they work exactly the same and cost less :) I also found from an art teacher that if you mist the top, and put it in the fridge, you get even better results.
@@ChloeRoseArt The one you got with the blue lid is the same one I have, it's a "palette seal". The reason it doesn't come with a sponge is because it is meant for a wooden or glass palette, but you can use it with the sponges too if you want. It's dang near airtight so that's why it's hard to get the lid off. I use a 12"x16" glass palette in it, and when I used open acrylics it would keep my paints wet pretty much forever just by keeping a wet paper towel balled up in a corner. I've since switched to oils and it keeps them from skinning over, and keeps the cat hair out.
@@ChloeRoseArt Not a different seal, the one you bought is made mainly for oil paints, which don't need a sponge.
Did I hear... prenatal vitamins?? :) All the best Chloe!! I hope you'll have a wonderful little family soon, what a beautiful project
I thought I was mishearing her! I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who heard it
I would absolutely love to see some diy wedding things! I’m getting married in October and am trying to diy as much as possible. I’ve done my centrepieces and bouquets and am having a ton of fun with it so I would love to see some more ideas!! Congratulations!🎉
I have tried a ton of different erasers and my personal favorite is the Faber Castell pencil erasers. You can sharpen them and they can get into tight corners/small spaces. They don't leave a lot of dust or anything. Definitely recommend trying them. I don't like kneadable erasers either.
Yesssss please do wedding art videos!! Ive been looking for cheaper ways to do things by doing it myself.
Bless Chloe moving is incredibly stressful! ❤
I really hope you are able to get all the supplies you need. I hope you know you don't need to come out with *new* and *fresh* ideas when your income is dependent on things you have to buy from scratch. I'd love to hear the story of how you got engaged or a home renovation/moving in video or whatever! We are not just fans of your art - we're fans of you and so excited for this next chapter of your life 🙂
What if our favorite YT artists did an art product supply mystery sampler collab box !?!
All packed in one of the Jazza mini bags !
What an awesome mix to imagine !
After nightmare box last week, thought what would be in a dream box ? Thought of you & all the collaborations you have done with other artists, then you mentioned the art bag. Perfect carrier for everyone's products. That would be fun.
Congratulations on your happily ever after too !
Let me send you some watercolor supplies! Perfect excuse to get your watercolor on:)
While I’m not into wedding stuff ( having your life go to hell and lose who were supposed be your family and friends betray you does that) seeing you test out wedding/ party art hacks would be interesting and I’m sure others would appreciate it. Congratulations on your engagement 🎉
Black and white posca, maybe a brown and gray too, of different thickness for details and outlines... It is so hard to do details with a brush sometimes so one of those comes in real handy every now and then for me.
I actually have one of those pallet boxes. While yes, they can preserve the paint for reuse, the paint WILL still dry out over time. It will just take a lot longer. Honestly? Best to use up the paint after a good few days of it sitting or else you'll have wasted it or added to your new Jackson Pollock esque piece- if you don't change out your pallet paper like I did, that is.
You got the beautiful bag! Speaking on Phtalo Blue and Green, that one is called Phtalo Turqouise! (in the kickstarter. I personally call it petrol =D )
We do need more people to back it though! The more people, the more colors can be produced, and more art stuff included! (stretch goals) And yes, there is a STUFFED version with art supplies!
You could get it, and have some more nice art supplies in December =D
I am crocheying while watching this. And I learned through a set like that at a ripe age of 30 something. You can learn too, it is very fun! (especially amigurumi, like you found)
I would love to see your wedding hacks and crafts. It would be so fun for anyone who is excited about planning their wedding, or anyone who’s just interested in hacks and crafts (like me lol)
thank you!!
My aunt and I made all the bouquets and boutineers (sp?) for my wedding. We used old paperback books and I did a light airbrush of color on the tips. The handle was River's sonicscrewdriver from Doctor Who. Our first date was to see Doctor Who in the theater. 😊
We just "rented for a year" between selling and buying houses. We wound up with three storage units and renting the "in between" house for 2 years before we found the right house to buy next. We also spent most of our profit from the sale during that time. Anyway, I wish you better luck than we had!
Golden paint is soooooo expensive in Australia 😩 it's also hard to find any neon paints in aus (that aren't fluid)
I think it's important to have a quality black and white paint (or whatever ever medium you use). Nice and opaque and pigmented 👌
I also have a giant bottle of white for mixing pastels 😅
I've had to replace my art materials a few times over in my life. Catastrophic not only because I'm "without", but I have many interests and as you well know EXPENSIVE. I've recently begun to rebuild, and it took me a few years to want to (and not just because I'd gone digital- love PROCREATE and can't live without it). It ate a bit at my self, and took some real mourning this time. The benefit of this, I'm trying new things (or old things I'd wished to have learned.) so I have to play, because for all I know, I actually have some new favorites. As to old, I love Zig calligraphy pens, though I love my old Rexall, I haven't used them in a bit, because they've changed ownership and not only are they different, so is my eyesight. But like you, I adore the Fudenosake markers by Tombow (they also make a great refillable pocket brush, that is fast becoming another fave to draw and calligraph with). I also come back over and over again to Pilot's B2P (bottle to pen) ballpoints, especially the black) for drawing my pen and ink. The Fudenosake and Zig add MORE punch when I want an OMGoodness black to my drawing. Right now playing with gouache and watercolor, though I work mainly in acrylic. I'm also using Arteza quite a bit, not only because they're relatively inexpensive, but they are quality enough. Love Strathmore multimedia sketch (reminds me to do a sketchbook tour, because I'd really like to get over my despite of sharing TH-cam and TikTok videos-I know I've not utilized them enough, I just feel old, awkward and not so attractive, but in the end, I think what's in my noggin' is more important, so ONE of the goals this upcoming year is to get over that shtuff.) Bought a few spoiled artist books to play with as well a Canson sketchbook. The next two will be the two you suggest, I've heard from many they are both good, but it's like good Chinese food. As much as I want to try something new, I KNOW I love what I love. Anyhow, fun videos, love the accent, and your art. Great good luck in the new place and congratulations on becoming engaged1
I really love the Golden paints.
Crochet is the way forwards! I learnt off bella coco's youtube and now teaching my daughter
Hi Chloe I doubt you will see this but I’ve been watching a lot of your old videos recently and you’ve inspired me to try and start to paint so I just want to say thank you❤
That's awesome! Good luck and I hope you have a blast 🎉
thats so lovely thank you!! I hope you enjoy painting and have fun, thats the most important part!
Aa for "holy grail" art supplies - my favorite thing I tripped across recently is caran d'ache wax pastels. They have two types, one water soluble and one not, and I have both and LOVE them. They do exactly what I wish oil pastels would do, without the stink - and the water soluble ones can be painted with! So amazing.
Totally agree about the white gel pens
Crocheting can be fun and relaxing and you can make cute things it might be great for a art pause to get you some finger exercises between drawing sessions
🎉congratulations Chloe for geting marred .at my cousins wedding she had blocks. That we could write on and put it in a box it was so nice and congratulations 🎉I love your videos I hope you get you art stuff back soon
Hey Chloe, love your videos! When you demonstrated the Masterson Sta-Wet Palette, I didn't notice the sponge that goes underneath the paper and keeps your paint from drying out.... Not sure if you didn't get that on purpose or or if that particular palette doesn't use the sponge. Thought I would give you a heads up though😊
I personally love the Derwent inktense pencils
Im absolutely getting one of these bags for certainly sure!
Oooh! I’ve backed a Jazza bag! I really want the Phthalo Green or Prussian Blue but I can’t decide! ❤️
My holy grail items (most are in my fav pencil case besides the painting supplies):
Tombow knock 3.8 eraser w/refills
Rinse well brush cleaner/water well
Fluid brand watercolor blocks
Sakura Quickie glue pens
Kum long point pencil sharpener
Uni a-gel mechanical pencil
Pilot color Eno blue mech pencil
Faber castell knetgummi kneadederaser
I didn’t get a chance to congratulate you yet! I saw your short the order day and was so excited for you! Congratulations!!!
Sorry, got carried away about being early 😅 Glad you have some nice new art supplies, shame so many went missing 😢
If I had to go for a whole year, I would buy watercolor first. Probably get the mission gold pure pigment set bc it’s a good price and very vibrant and you can mix anything with it and then also some tuner acryl gouache cause those are my babies. I would need a large etchr sketchbook and then a less expensive sketchbook aswell, maybe a gamma by stillman and birn or strathmore mixed media cotton
maybe you could have your art friends send you some art supplies they think are essential for someone starting new? like essential beginner stuff, essential intermediate stuff, essential pro stuff? and then you could compare what everyone sent and how much they agree or disagree?
This is a great idea
Congratulations on the engagement!!! so happy for you!!
Jazza's first art kit introduced me to that eraser... never going back to those pink ones!
This will be an exciting year! It'll be a fun challenge working with less art supplies =)
When this video popped up, I stopped everything I was doing to watch. As an artist, that title really hit...right in the feels. But you make a good point! There's nothing like buying _new_ art supplies. And yeah, that art bag is pretty sweet. Ohhh! I _LOVE_ the Tombow markers! Do you refill yours? I started doing that a few years ago. I use Platinum Carbon Black and it's been excellent. I use it in my Kaimei brush pen too.
The things I used the most in my life are Steadler pencils and erasers, I can't live without them!
Also anything from prisma color!
I do really love liquitex and I use Pebeo acrylics also! They do one of the best gouache too!
I really want to try the Golden and artist loft, I just don't when I'm gonna have the time 😅
Also, Never buy the brans Try art (Canadian brand), the tubes dried on me after few years...
I have some tubes of Liquitex and Pebeo for over a decade and they're not dried at all!
1st - Never too early for Halloween!!! 😂
2nd - I feel your pain. Moved from NH to CA brought most my supplies with and bought more. Moved from CA to AZ - brought most supplies. AZ to NH - brought most and bought more. Moved NH to Australia. Hoarded art supplies in Australia… brought home as much as I could when I moved back to AZ. Lived with ex. More supplies. Left ex now staying with family. Supplies ended up in storage, and here. Parents moved to AZ from NH… brought more of my supplies with them I left behind. As of this week… it is all finally in one place… minus my crafting and cake decorating supplies. 😬 I need a house.
Yes to the wedding video!
Congrats on your engagement - best wishes for a beautiful life together!!
Yes, you’re using soft pastels four your under painting. You can use airbrush thinner. Before you use your acrylic paints.
My favorite art supply is Turner Acryla Gouache!! If you haven't tried it, you very much should! Also, I just tried gold leaf for the first time, and it was super fun.
So I'm currently working part-time at [the store in your video] whilst working through a professional program in another field, and I wanted to comment on the seasonal change. It's true, we get a lot of comments from people like, "Halloween already?!" But at the same time, we also already have people asking for Christmas(!) stuff because they want to get started on Christmas projects "in time." I'm sure some of the logic in getting seasonal materials out early is so people can work them into crafts in advance of the season they would display them.
I'm working on a project to knit winter scarves and hats for donations, and obviously I'm knitting them now, in the summer, or they won't be ready for winter! But it maybe does come across as weird to be knitting a scarf in July.
My holy grail are my watercolor palette that I well chose the colors myself. I love acrylic gouache by Holbein and turner . For acrylics, I love the matte finish so my number 1 go to is Le Franc Bourgeois flashe paints! These are amazing! Anyway hopefully your art supplies will be found soon… maybe they just having a break! 😅
Omg when you turned around and said do I hear a cough I was coughing 😂🤣😂🤣
Chloe…. When I got married in 2019 I had one of the drop boxes with hearts but it’s got our names and wedding date on the background and we had a box with all of the hearts with our wedding colors of sharpies (red, black and silver) and it turned out soooo cute after people wrote on them and dropped them in.
We r actually moving on Tuesday too so i am dreading set up a new art studio lol it’ll be fun but a lot of work!
Did you get the sponge for your wet palette? It works so well.
I did the same thing about moving fast and had to put everything in a storage unit. Then.........AN IDIOT BROKE INTO MY STORAGE UNIT AND STOLE EVERY THING!!!!!!! I was crushed my grand mother spinning wheel was in there. I had my Cricut and a bunch of other high end items I had bought over the years about $4,000 worth of stuff not exaggerating. If i could just get my Grand-Mothers Spinning Wheel back I would be so Happy. Now I am SLOOOWLY rebuilding my supplies and tools.
Most craft stores put our Christmas in July, it's not to try to rush the season but to give crafters time to prepare and create their creations.
Would love to see you use the Himi gouache set. I’ve had one for a few years now and still not opened it
I would paint all the little hearts and the frame and then give my guest a black marker to write their names on.
We had one of the little heart frames for my wedding too. Really easy way to have a lasting record of who was there without having a random book sitting around
Wedding art hacks would be really cool
Chloe should do a tour of her new art studio after it is set up! lets make a comment bomb so she can see this!
Time to declutter - legit though it’s easy to acquire and not declutter the old acrylic. So when you open your art supplies Declutter right then and there!
Id love seeing you exploring the wedding art/craft hacks
Oh Chloe😢 that's a rookie mistake, I've been there and it is stressful! These days my art stuff is always within sight when moving
Those uniball pens are the best. I love them so much. I have a full set of colors.
Michael’s is ok for some art supplies, but mostly for crafting and student grade supplies. The professional art supplies they do have are overpriced because they don’t get the wholesale price breaks that, for, example, Blick’s does, and they also expect that you will use a coupon, which is only 20% off now, most of the time. Having said that though, bc I use crafting supplies or when they’re discontinuing an item, I shop fairly often at Michael’s AND I’ve gotten some killer deals…even on the occasional fine art items. You have to just go in and scour the the store shelves and clearance section, though. The “killer deals” I’ve found were just items that were being discontinued by Michael’s and that the store I was in wanted to quickly get it out of their inventory. I was blown away when I got some Winsor & Newton Professional oil brushes for $2 -$5, that normally sell for $10 -$18 or more. On another occasion, I got a set of 30 Caran d’Ache Supracolor2 water soluble color pencils for about $32/$33 dollars (it’s been a while.) These often sell for almost double that, even on Blick’s. So even if you don’t use some of the “killer deals” you come across, you can almost always resell them as long as you offer a reasonable price….and you’ll make a bit of a profit.👍
I couldn't--could NOT--go without my Duo Aqua water-soluble oils. I shudder when I think about losing them. 😅
Starting over with a limited amount of supplies may challenge you. You may find some creative ideas you wouldn't have otherwise. Personally, I'm using liquid acrylics. I first bought them for painting sculptures and started trying to do some painting on canvas. For me they work fine because I'm not a professional artist. I can mix colors with them and I just like using them. 😃😃👋👋💖💖
I had the exact same reaction on seeing autumn stuff in The Range (UK Shop) last week and TK max had Halloween stuff LAST MONTH! Halloween isn’t a massive thing here either anyway! Madness!
I would love to see a wedding art video!
Crochet is so easy to get the hang of! Someone I know does crochet workshops in the uk so you can always find any workshops around! :)
You should try New Masters Acrylics by Old Holland some time.
Love all the art supplies! Acrylic is one medium I never tried until last year and I love it now! Good quality acrylic paints make all the difference! I Love Golden Acrylic paint!! 🙌
A bit odd but I swear by the Caran D'Ache Water soluable wax pastals. They're so colourful and being able to draw like an oil pastal then mix them with water is a game changer for me.
Great to see what your art essentials are, love this sort of video! :)
I wouldn't be able to manage without coloured pencils - I'd go straight away and buy some Derwent Lightfast pencils (my faves), either in a 100 set, or open stock, my fave 30-40 or so colours, followed shortly by some of my fave loose Polychromos and Luminance colours.
I'd also want a selection of both Winsor and Newton Professional and Daniel Smith Watercolour paints. I'd probably start with the WN Pro metal tin of 24 half pans and build my collection from there. (Plus Holbein Leaf Green and Manganese Blue Nova are two fave watercolours I would buy in tubes)
For paper, I would get a Stillman and Birn sketchbook, (probably Beta for watercolour), as well as a nice medium grain cartridge paper sketchbook for just doodling with the coloured pencils. For paintings that I wanted to take more time over, I would get some Bockingford Hot press watercolour paper. :)
I would also grab a Pentel Aquash waterbrush in a 'broad' size, as I can't live without one of those. Also a Uniball Eye Micro pen for rough paper linework, and a Faber Castel pitt pen in 0.3 for smooth paper linework.
Oof thats 1 thing I hate about moving... stuff going missing...
And no I dont hirer "Movers" only friends and family that can help otherwise its me myself and I so i know nothing goes missing...
Personally I prefer the Bottle Acrylic paints like Folkart/Apple something
Awesome hall!! Always wanted to try gouache but too broke to get them 😅. Also I recommend trying out the infinite pencils (best place to buy them on a budget is temu which is where I got mine). I know ya don’t sketch much but having a pencil with an always pointed tip is definitely an upgrade even more so than mechanical pencils since these last MUCH longer, there are even some colored tipped ones although I haven’t tried those yet 👀
I wouldn't be able to live without my sketchbooks. No way. I bought a new one with koalas recently ant it's adorable ❤
