I like vases, glass ones, vintage ones, but only ones I will use. I also love art supplies, I seem to have a lot of alcohol markers. I love my Ohuhu ones. Your painting is delightful. You collect whatever you want. It is your life, your space and your joy.

Art supplies!!😂🤣 Also pins from everywhere, they are fastened to the crown of my sun hat; the weight really helps in the wind! Last, Alice in Wonderland. I used to have an art challenge blog called "The Altered Alice" so a lot of this collection is handmade.

Hullo Lindsay, I have several collections. I started with comic books, I still have an Incredible Hulk and Supergirl from 1972! You might be un-surprised at the state of my spare rooms closet, yep full of comic book boxes that are full of bag n boarded comics. I have quite a few watercolor palettes too, but I am still happiest with my ink pens and ink collections my fountain pens are on the limited side but I started Calligraphy at just 11 years old with steel nibs and my collection of those is far grander! I found the Rohrer & Kilngner sketch inks a few years back and they work wonderfully with watercolor as they are waterproof and dry rather quickly, much better than other pigment inks like Platinum/Carbon Black ink. I do love how you changed the reference to fit your vision of the painting! This truly is why we paint! Creating the ideal is from the painters mind and not as a simple recorder of place or time, a photo can do that! You are so much more than a camera! Thank you for sharing this lovely scene with us.

So cute painting! Quick tip on brown ink. A 0.3 Pilot Preppy and the brown Thea waterproof Sketch Ink by Rohrer and Klingner will give you a sustainable option once your Brown fineliners run out. Love the colours of the flowers and the window with the sign. I could sense in your voice that you had fun doing this! Thanks a lot for that extra bit of shared fun.

Brilliant! I love it. Love seeing the cute palette used, love your gorgeous painting and I love the idea of the shop/gallery selling bit of art supplies. I think art supplies would be great in supermarkets. It's so sad non artists are usually left with blue pen/ black pencil as grown up options. My to do lists are so much more fun when they are sketched in colour. Everyone deserves creativity and colour in their life. Hopefully people visiting on holidays will find this hidden treasure of a shop and discover colour again. And more shops will have art supplies. Thank you for sharing the joy. I don't actively collect anything anymore but I have tiny collection of antique miniature Bibles, my pride and joy, and miniature watercolour palettes, some bought bot mostly diy. I'm really happy with my collections, I don't feel the need to adding to it but of course if I come across something I really like I might. Collecting and using art supplies is such a wholesome hobby in my opinion.

Very cute painting. That little palette is really nice. What don't I collect? 😂 I was the second grader that had ripped crayon wrappers stuck in my desk because they were too pretty to throw away. I did eventually or it was done for me. I don't remember that part, but I've been thinking about doing an art project using some just for fun. I collect old books from 1900 and before, cookbooks, a small collection of guitars and sewing machines, old Shiny Brite Christmas ornaments, costume jewelry, arts and crafts supplies, and whatever grabs my attention that's antique. I've been on an accumulation freeze for a few years though because I really don't want to add anything else and I've given some away. I'm happy with what I have.

I guess I collect art supplies. If you came to my house, you'd think I collected ceramic birds. Nope, they were my mom's, and when she passed 31 yrs ago, no one in the family wanted them but me. Now, I ask myself, " What am I to do with these and also her collection of Hummel figurines?" They used to be valuable, now they're not. Lol. I'm glad I never got into collecting. At 79, I'd like to thin out stuff!

"Don't force the fit" is a very valuable lesson to finally learn. Oh man, I'd hate to add up all of my years of wasted time and money because of this habit. Well done for your realization..... and a nice bonus for those who are lucky enough to hear it from you, then have their own epiphany. I totally get collecting the travel palettes or anything else. You're drawn to them and can afford to indulge this fun, AND as a bonus you actually use them...... not to mention that you use them to teach us stuff so you can write it off as a biz expense. Who would have an issue with that? pfffttt! Curious me wants to know: Does it mess with your love of a new palette if the paints that come in it are a disappointment like these seem to be? Or does the It-Factor coolness remain if you put your own paints in?

@thefrugalcrafter

If the paints are bad it's great because I can gut it with no worries. If they ate mediocre (cotman, schminke academy, phoenix, superior) I feel bad gutting it because the paint it useful. In the case of the cotman travel box i just removed but kept the pans to put in other cotman palettes when they ran out. Sometimes I feel bad if I don't have a use for them and leave them in but with crappy paint I can gut it with no issue. I wasn't sure it came with paint so it wasn't a loss. It is hard to waste tho.

Wait. I have a genuine question. How do you store or keep rubber stamps so that they don't degrade and get all hard, and then hard and cracked? I have a few stamps from when I was in grade school and they didn't last. Is there some trick that I'm missing?

@thefrugalcrafter

6 күн бұрын

I keep emerging away from light. If a stamp gets hard I coat it with vegetable glycerin and it softens it up. Just leave it on and don't wash it before use.
