I found these pens in a shop in the South West, haven't yet found out where you can purchased them online in the UK. I'll keep looking!

    I’m glad you treated yourself to these! It’s always good to spend money on yourself every now and again. I’ve never heard of these either but I really like them! You did well to only spend £60! I’ve spent ridiculous amounts of money on art supplies before.. I’ve regretted a lot of my spending! 😂👍🏻

    I got a set of 50 of these in B&M for £20 - looking forward to trying them out - obviously don't have the same range of colours as buying the trays individually, but they look okay to begin with :)

    Speaking as a fellow artist, they look great and I have been toying with the idea of buying the full set. However, I'm not sure if you mention this in the video, but there is only one snag that stops me from buying them. As far as I know, they aren't available individually, so when one runs out, you have to purchase another whole pack for one colour. That doesn't make them very cost-effective. I think The Range also sells these (or an equivalent). Same there. They are only available in sets.

    This was a really fun video for me to watch as I live in The Netherlands, and DecoTime is basically a budget art/craft supply brand, that is sold in a budget store called Action, the nearest I could liken it to would be B&M. I am not an artist like yourself but love to craft. I do love decotime for the simple reason that it means you can play experiment have fun, without spending a fortune, however I do find with some things it's a bit hit & miss, but at the end of the day you can craft on a budget. I have just bought the aquamarkers and sorry to say you were robbed lol, I've just spent €12 for a set of 50 as I thought it would be cheaper than buying the individual packs of 12 which are €4,50. With DecoTime you just have to experiment some thing will be crap and others awsome but always fun.
