Hi Lea! That marbled background looks really beautiful and interesting now that you have coloured the mandala. Great experiment. I'm sitting here, shivering, because I refuse to turn on the central heating system in the middle of summer (for the 5th year in a row): it's 14 degrees C and raining, at the warmest time of the day. I bet your winter is warmer than our summer at the moment... :) Happy colouring!
it's a really interesting effect I think plus a bit of a cheat if you don't feel coloring or coloring the whole thing haha! I know what you mean about it being cold. Atm even though I live in the sub tropical part of Australia which is usually warmish ..it's the coldest Winter ever. I've had to put a jumper on and an extra blanky! I haven't reached for the heater yet ...but it might happen! It's been 16 degrees C some days :( However, I am pretty lucky as I know in other places of the world that our Winters are really like Summers for others! I hope you get a real "Summer" soon and keep warm in the meantime! Happy and warm coloring x
thank you so much for doing this in-depth review
My pleasure! Happy coloring x
I had NO idea the Chromoflow came in a150 set now. Love this mandala!! I also did not know the Copic dry up "so quick", in a sense. I will need to get some alcohol for mine as I don't use them a lot.
Yes they have made our life better? by giving us more pencils to want haha! They look amazing and so incredibly vibrant! Unfortunately not all pencils are available in open stock as yet though! Yes, the Copics or any alcohol marker can dry up a bit even if stored correctly on their side. I could put them vertically and see if that helps but I think the quickest thing is just to put a bit of alcohol in the barrel and give it a shake haha! I'm not wasting all that good ink haha! Happy coloring x
this book has the best paper in it the other book crinke when you use water paints on it
I assume you mean Christine's other books? The other books are on Amazon paper this is the only book so far published on different paper. It is actually the same paper as Jasmine Becket Griffith's coloring books (same Aussie publisher). Hopefully more of Christine's books will be printed this way. Happy coloring x
Can you color over it once it's dry?
Yes, you can color, re-dip it, outline in pen etc once it is completely dry. I actually used a hair dryer on mine to speed up the drying time for one I wanted to color. Hope that helps. Happy coloring x
@@coloringqueen i am gone try this for sure. I really love the things you do. Just make a mess, who cares, lol
This is Very Interesting! Thank You for Sharing 💜
You are so welcome! Happy coloring x
Clever idea!
Thank you! It's a lot of fun although sometimes a bit messy haha! Happy coloring x
Thank you for this flip through, simple and quick, all we need!
Glad it was helpful! Happy coloring x
Thank you for your effort and research on this dimension of coloring. Putting color on paper and watching things come to life is a complete joy for me. Now if only I can solve my carpal tunnel problem!
Thank you so much! I'm sorry to hear about your carpal tunnel. I have heard people use paints or watercolors instead as it is not as painful compared to pencils. Maybe this is worth a try for you. All the best x
Couldnt watch all of this video especially after your pencils were sharp. I have the 3 sided M & R but my favourite is the grey Faber Castel pencil sharpener that has 3 holes.❤❤❤
I <3 my M and R it continues to be my most used and always on my desk sharpener. I just wish the replacement blades were easier to purchase in Australia. I'll have to check out the Faber Castel 3 hole sharpener ...plus I really want to try the Dalle 133 ....so many sharpeners such little time! Happy coloring x
Love the picture!
Thank you x Happy coloring x
I really enjoy your crime stories!!!
Thank you! happy coloring!
Wow you really saved that picture - I am most impressed - I also love your stories and think the judgement will come down in favour of Whitney - I just want to know where you bought your Colleen pencils from. I live in Australia but down in the freezing cold thanks Lee
Thank you so much! I can't wait to see the judgment .. I love to play a guessing game and see if I am right or not. I am not sure where you are living but Queensland is surprisingly cold atm - I actually have a hoodie on and sometimes my dressing gown in the morning! I bought my pencils ages ago from a seller in Thailand. Unfortunately, I don't think they are selling anymore :(. Sometimes, they come up on Ebay. If you are interested in the 60 sets I still have a few boxes left that I'll be putting up on Facebook at some stage (even I don't need 7 sets haha!) Happy coloring x
I thoroughly enjoyed this episode. I've got to say that I'm amazed she stayed in her house because Geoff sounds to be an extremely intimidating individual. Having said that, the fact that he was destroying her reputation on social media left her with no choice but to retaliate. Either way, it's a lose-lose situation because I doubt he'll feel in the least bit chastened. I'm so impressed with how you redeemed your colouring 'experiment', it turned out beautifully.
She was actually planning to move States but then decided that she would stay. No-one ever "wins" in court proceedings the emotional and financial toll is always far more than people anticipate. The other problem is that the legislating is a bit toothless imo so even a win is not really that much of a win imo. Thanks for your comments on the page, I intend to let the experiments dictate the color choices so I can save the rest of the little mermaids haha! Happy coloring x
Interesting story🧜♀
Thank you. Happy coloring x
I am watching this video of yours about a month later than you released it. My question has to do with the "Colleen" 120 set of colored pencils that was one of your tests. I live in California and just recently saw this set for sale on the USA Amazon page. I paid about $60.00 US dollars and the box arrived in less than a week! This set was extremely well packed for international shipping, far better than many higher priced sets. I didn't have to pay extra for shipping by the time I purchased my set, but it is a good idea to buy 2 sets at the same time as I don't believe this brand is carried as loose stock locally to me. I am wondering if you have created a color chart in any type of order? My box of 120 came in a loose color range differently on each tray, so I was going to try swatching by their number, but.... it didn't turn out exactly as I hoped. What have you done for color order? If you have a color order swatch sheet you are happy with, would you feel like sharing this? Is there a chart you created that I could pay you for to print out? I really enjoy your channel, your advanced reviews trying out several different types of art mediums is really helpful! Thank you for taking the time to test the products, and then the time to share your findings via video! Thank you, A fan in California
I actually have the Colleen 72 set (a few boxes actually lol) and the 120 set. I never use my 120 set because I stupidly did not buy two sets. One day I need to get a "spare" haha. Unfortunately Colleens are not sold open stock so you need to buy a whole box each time for replacements. They are considered a budget pencil that's why no loose stock. Hopefully, you have had time to get acquainted with them and see if you enjoy coloring with them. My most recent video on a Million Mermaids Coloring Book was colored with Colleens (72 set) they are a fave for me (which is why I have so many boxes haha). When I swatched them in my video on the 120 set and the 72 set it was before I was creating swatch charts to give away, it was just a chart for myself. I've tried to find that on my old computer tonight for you but unfortunately I can't locate the original blank chart. At some stage I will be redoing all my swatch charts so they are in a better format but I don't know when that will be exactly. Thank you so much for your kind comments and sorry I couldn't be any further help x
Thanks for creating this, Lea. Lol, I'm Dutch so it took me a while to realise you were talking about a 'coffee shop' and not a 'coffee shop' ;) Happy colouring!
Oh wow I didn't even think of that!! That's so funny! Happy coloring x
Colleen pencils 72 pack is $75 on Amazon at the moment 🙂
That's a good price! Happy coloring x
Is there anywhere I can purchase this without paying an extra $30 for postage to Australia?
Not that I'm aware of! Unfortunately, postage is the bane for us Aussies :( Happy coloring x
WOW, I need this one! 🌸
It's a stunner! The book is just beautiful and so luxurious. She also is thinking of releasing a different book on Amazon soon too (Amazon tradestock paper though). Happy coloring x
Thank you for this review of Klara's book. I have recently bought it and was wondering about the inktense pencils. Now I know! Thank you!
You are so welcome! I hope. you enjoy it, Klara's books are like having your own fairy kingdom in your home! Happy coloring x
So beautiful ❤
it is lovely! Happy coloring x
I always enjoy your stories and coloring!
Thank you so much! Happy coloring!
But how I can get this book
The links to buy the book at various outlets are in the description box below the video (or right hand side if on an ipad etc). Happy coloring x
what a fabulous story and fabulous colouring - I loved the colours you used.
Thank you so much! Happy coloring!
i have been getting into hanna karlzon specifically because the books are smaller with fewer pages. one of my fave books by Ernestova has 16 pages! perfect size.
haha I love that! I often feel overwhelmed by large books that I will never finish them. The book that I adore is Wild Soul. I never thought I would like it as I don't like coloring animals but it's one of my faves and with fewer pages than others I actually have a hope of finishing it! Happy coloring!
I love listening to these stories. Thank you for sharing! I really hope the lawyer got what was awarded to him.
Thank you! I hope so too, but you never know ....there might not have been anything to have! Happy coloring!
It's always exciting to see Milly in the video😄I'm glad the Isabelle lady had to pay for what she did by misusing a power given to consumers to keep service providers on the up and up. The Mandala is gorgeous!!
ikr she loves being on camera. I have to remove her or she will just sit on the book all day and occasionally if she is feeling energetic play with a pencil haha. Isobel had an order against her but unsure if they were able to collect (ie if she didn't have anything it's pretty hard to get blood out of a stone as the saying goes). Unfortunately, we just don't know how it panned out financially for the lawyer. Thank you so much for your kind words about the mandala ..I had fu n trying this color palette out! Happy coloring!
Can’t find the book anywhere. It keeps saying sold out. Do you happen to know where can I still get it? The book looks amazing, I would love to get my hands on it
Many sites allow you to sign up to be notified when stock is available. There's also Facebook marketplace and Ebay but I also suggest contact the artist direct as she may know of other distributors that have stock - instagram.com/dilkka/?hl=en. Hope that helps x
Hello, I’m from the US and I’m extremely interested in these pencils. I am however a bit confused on what kind of printer paper to use. I would appreciate any feedback. Thank you so very much!
Lately I've been using Neenah Cardstock amzn.to/4abYSjT for all of my coloring. It really depends on what type of colorist you are - if you like to do a lot of layers then you will need a paper that has tooth to handle that. Years ago I tested many papers and still continue to do so to see what works for me. I would often buy just one sheet of paper so I could see if it was something I enjoyed using as we all have our different coloring style and technique. My preferred paper for lots of layers was Canson Mi Teintes however it is hard to get and expensive in Australia. These pencils are harder than a Prismacolor so you may not want to do as many layers for example. My video of testing the paper is here kzread.info/dash/bejne/iJt81tSTd9a3ldo.html and my blog post is here coloringqueen.net/best-paper-to-print-coloring-pages-on-for-colored-pencils/. Hope that helps x
J'adore ces crayons et avec tes combos, il me sera encore plus facile de colorier. Merci tellement🤩😍🥰
vous êtes les bienvenus ! Apprécier! x
This is my all time favourite coloured pencils for real! 💖💖💖💖
They are fabulous aren't they! They are like Goldilocks pencils ...not too. hard and not too soft! Happy coloring x
normally I dont look for portraits books ( i prefer action scenes) but this one was one of my exceptions. A wonderful book made with care and beautiful layout . Amazing cover, almost an work of art. Thank you for the review Lea. Wonderful listening to you giving your opinion on it.
It's a stunning book! As soon as I seen the cover I knew that was what I wanted for my Birthday! It's a stunner! Happy coloring x
I like this book love the details wish it was on better paper.
I agree! I guess you could always copy the images on to your own paper if you were really keen! Happy coloring x
❤ Thank you for sharing
You are so welcome Happy coloring x
Love the picture and the story How scary
Thank you! It's surprising how many phrogger instances there are! Scary stuff - I'm glad we don't have an attic! Happy coloring x
What a unique book! It kinda reminds me of Little Devil & the Singing Rose (I think that's the title; it's Chinese or Korean), which is one of my faves~ Thanx so much for sharing, Lea❤ 🖤❤💛💙🖤J
You are welcome! I'll have to check that book out! The artwork is so interesting! Happy coloring x
what a gorgeous and unique book. Thank you so much Lea... I love all things that are different too and think its wonderful to see and appreciate books with different art work from different people and countries 💙 Thank you!
One of the things I love about coloring is seeing the different art from different countries and I love my little international collection! I'll have to have a dig on my shelf and see what other books from other countries haven't been uploaded yet! I'm sure I have a few haha. Happy coloring x
What cute images! You know, I wouldn't have even thought about the political aspects of a book from Russia, so I'm glad you said something so people will keep things neutral (hopefully). 😊
Sadly I had to say this due to some feedback on my last Russian book :(. Hope life is treating you well. Happy coloring x
Very nice!
Thank you! Happy coloring x
That's kind of creepy....my pets would never allow it.. my cat Yuki was hissing at the fence builder guys last month through the window and he hears everything😂 The picture turned out so pretty.
I would be freaked out and never go back lol! I think that the phrogger managed to build a relationship with the puppy so it effectively knew him/her/them and therefore didn't react to their presence but who knows. Yuki sounds like a good security system and fencing supervisor haha! Thank you for your kind comments on Mr Frog - he's a cutie! Happy coloring x
would you please tell me if lisa coloring corner past away thanks
I don't have any personal knowledge of the health and wellness of any KZreadr including Lisa. Happy coloring x
Thank you for the review on the book and testing mediums. I now have the book on my wishlist.
It's a stunner! Hope one day it finds its way to your collection! Happy coloring x
What a fantastic book. 🎉
It really is! It's a stunner! Happy coloring x
Thank you so incredibly much again for the wonderful flip thru and in-depth testing of the different pencils and water media. Incredibly helpful ☺️ this book really is special and looking forward to it ☺️
You are welcome! It's a gorgeous book and I hope it finds its way to your home soon x.
Squealed with excitement when I saw this pop up! Thank you so incredibly much Lea. It’s even more beautiful when seeing it like this ☺️I’m so incredibly happy you have received it and are able to enjoy it so quickly ! Now off to watch the long version ☺️ and of course will get it soon ☺️
I was so excited that it came early! It's such a gorgeous book and so glad I asked for it for my Birthday! Now to try and figure out which picture to color and with what haha! Happy coloring x
I loove this one! Can't remember where I bought it or where I could find a similar one with coloured background like this.
It's a great book! I hope you are able to find another similar one - these ones seem to be a bit hard to get nowadays! Happy coloring x
