I love shopping at artisan stores - from the products that are crafted with love and skill, to the careful packaging of your order with handwritten notes, the whole experience is lovely from start to finish!!
🌷 The Florence Palette, US
potterybyeleni.com/collection...
she has an artists' collection full of insanely gorgeous handmade porcelain palettes and honestly... if I could buy them all I 100% would. Perfect for watercolour mixing & gouache paints too
🌷 A. Gallo Artisanal Brush Roll, Italy
www.agallocolors.com/shop/new...
I got the "Traditional mop brush collection - Linea Feltracco" in the colour "Teal" :)
A. Gallo do monthly shop updates, but they always sell out really quick so make sure to sign up to their newsletter for updates & discounts if you're interested
🌷 Pocket Watercolour Sketchbook, UK

I really love the size of their pocket sketchbooks, they are really adorable & well made and the portability is just unrivalled
🌷 Handmade Monet Sketchbook/Journal, Spain
versociudad.bigcartel.com/
Versociudad is an artisanal bookbinder & paper maker, her handmade journals are beautifully crafted, with paper that is sooo soft and luxurious to the touch.
(I had to send a DM on insta to make a purchase, as she doesn't have international shipping on her site yet!)
🌷 Handmade Botanical Paper, UK
www.potsandpaperbysteph.com/s...
Everything is made from recycled paper. Her botanical paper is not always in stock, but it looks like she does made-to-order paper here:

EDIT: I take back what I said about the Charvin Royal Blue (PB29). Their ultramarine blue is called “Bleu Outremer” on their website, which is the shade I was expecting (also PB29, I just picked the wrong one 💔).
---------
what was your favourite item from this haul? I’m in love with the porcelain palette and Monet journal 😍💗
I’ve got exams in April and questionable time management so I’ll probably see you guys after!! 😢 got some painting & travel art vlogs planned which I’m super excited about 💗
Love u, take care xxx
This video was so calming to watch while I drink my nightly tea🥰 great video❤️
your comment matches your username so well 😂💗 thank you!! 🌸💗
A SWATCH BOOK!! What a great idea! I always just swatched in whatever book I was working in and with whatever paint I was using at the time. Never thought to just keep a separate watercolor book just for swatching. Thanks so much!❤
thanks for watching!! 🥰❤️ It’s so handy to have a swatch book with everything in one place & it’s very satisfying to flip through as well 🤣
So glad it’s not just me that ‘accidentally’ buys art supplies 😅🤗
too easy to do 😂🤭
That Charvin palette looks so pretty *w*
it’s lovely 😫💗💗
I love the calm vibes of your videos 🙂
thank you!! 🥰💗💗
Your Edwardian book captured my attention because I think I saw some poems as you flipped through; I'm a poet. Those watercolor illustrations are so beautiful!!!
yes you’re right! there’s poetry and quotes written throughout the book, it’s so inspiring 🤩💗 it was £3 at my local charity shop, I was so happy 😂
@@softandcosy £3 is such a great deal! I'm sure you were happy! 😄
everything you’ve bought is so pretty,, I love the misty morning shade- the way it dries is so unique :’) good luck with your exams !
thank youu!!
That prairie green has my heart 🍐💚
it’s lovely!! feels like a very summery + countryside colour 🌷💗
The purple ink looks gooorgeous, nice haul 🎉🎉🎉
I love it!! thanks for watching ☺️
They look very light & colourful - almost like a children's watercolour set. I wonder do they mix a lot of white with the pigment to get them like that ?..usually most of the paints I use look very dark because they are concentrated, but you can make them look as light as you want by diluting them.
Oh wow so many gorgeous paint 😍😍 and the brush set looks so pretty 😩💖
I love the brush set so much 😭💗 they’re so nice to use
Just found this video on my feed. What a most lovely video it was too!❤️It was so relaxing and it just was perfect. Loved all the items you showed us. The music was just perfect too. Going to sub to your CZcams. Thank you for sharing!
Susan in Az. ❤️🏜️
Thank you Susan! 🥰🥰 Glad you enjoyed it, hope to be back with more videos soon :) xx
Missed you! Glad to see another video!!
thanks for watching Gini!! 💗🌷
I miss your calming and inspiring videos! Please make more!
thank you Gini! 💗💗 I’m currently filming/editing a sketchbook session/vlog, I’m a bit rusty but will be back soon I promise 😂🌷
Omg I want everything from this video 😳🫣especially the book and the palette, so unique and lovely. Thank you for sharing. I feel like the royal blue must have a white pigment in it, many brands have royal blue and it’s usually a mix of ultramarine and white, a pale blue colour, could be useful for skies. Ultramarine is pretty consistent in pigment load across most brands.
thanks for watching! 🥰💗 after I filmed this, I saw roman szmal’s royal blue and it seems more similar to that! The Charvin website only lists PB29 in that colour but I wonder if it’s like you wrote, especially since they didn’t name it with “ultramarine” in the name
@@softandcosy yes I looked on their website and they have a regular pb 29
@@luneleaart oh man I just picked the wrong one 😂😭 no wonder my expectations vs reality was so different
@@luneleaartI just updated my pinned comment, thanks for letting me know - I didn’t realise the other PB29 was right there!
@@softandcosy it can be confusing when a brand doesn’t have a single colour chart with pigment numbers for the whole line but ultramarine is always very dark in a pan. Looking at each colour one by one is very time consuming, I wonder why not all brands/ lines of paint have one
Great video! I like how you said you “accidentally bought a lot of art supplies”! I am going to try that excuse the next time my wife asks me why I bought so much on my next art store shopping excursion. It was just an accident, I swear! It should work, right?
ty!! there are worse things to spend your money on i suppose 😂😂 I do need to stop though, trying a “no buy” this year but we’ll see
@@softandcosy it is so hard to stop! My "no buy" commitment usually lasts about a week.
@@morrisonwatercolors online shopping makes it way too easy !! 😂😭
I thoroughly enjoyed this video!❤ Also, The bleed proof white is just super thick. I thought I got a bad batch when I purchased mine, but after googling it, I realized that It’s meant to be like that:)
thank you 💗🌷 I didn’t realise, i thought it had gone bad too 😂 but it’s so easily diluted with water, really love it so far
The royal blue you don’t like is meant to be a pale colour, not the dark bright royal of fabric and fashion. It is not an ultramarine type colour. White nights do an opaque version. Pronounce the little London shop Cornell-I-sens, it has been there forever! The Szmal colours are brilliant, it looks like you enjoyed them. Nice video.
Yep, I wish I could edit the video after uploading! Updated my pinned comment after someone pointed it out - I got the two mixed up 😢
it’s lovely 🌷 I only discovered L Cornelissen a couple of years ago, was very late to everything 😂
Hi Annabella! You might be interested to know that Ken Bromley art supplies carries the Loxley heavyweight metal palette which are quite sturdy and well built, they look very much like the palette you’d purchased at Charvin. They are a UK based company too
omg thank you, that's amazing 💗💗 I just googled them and the 8 half pan tin on the Loxley website looks perfect for plein air!!
I'm supposed to be on a 'no buy' this year but...maybe one last order won't hurt 😂😂
I’m on a now buy this year too! Drafted a personal declaration and everything 😂
Good luck on your exams and personal goals ✨
@@kashfiahare3190 lool I need to try doing that too, we need to stay strong😂 thank youu!!
"since then I accidently bought" killed me 😂
hahaha I’ve since banned myself from art hauls 😂😭
Handmade papers 💞 They are so beautiful! Btw One of my art goals this year is to get better at watercolor painting. Would you be willing to make a video on watercolor painting tips some day when you are free? 👀😄
I’ll be painting on them in a later video ☺️ and same! 💗 I’ll definitely do some watercolour paint with me videos - but still have lots to learn myself tbh 🤣
@@softandcosy Yay! I'll be waiting for the video! Learning together is more fun 😊
You can find these metal palettes on Ken Bromley. Look for the Loxley metal palettes. They are rather pricy, though.
ooh I’m so tempted to get their small bijou box, it looks perfect for plein air 🤩 I also just discovered Green & Stone of Chelsea, they do similar tins!
@@softandcosy Ah, yes! Green and Stone. They’re actually an antique store, so if you have £1000 or two just sitting around collecting dust you can put them to good use and buy an antique watercolour box 😂
@@awatercolouristI didn’t know that! I found them through google, slightly pricier than Ken Bromley but more options available (£25-£75):
greenandstone.com/product/traditional-heavyweight-tins/
@@softandcosy Rather pricy, indeed!
Just found you and have subscribed, where did you get the beautiful brass clip on your sketchbook from its gorgeous
hi Sue, thanks for your comment! I got the Traveller's clip from misopaper.co.uk/, they have two versions of it 💕 it was a splurge I don't regret, I always use it while sketching now
Annabella….thank you for the video…..do you have an opinion of the Charvin watercolors? Yes or no? Thank you.
thanks for your comment Lynn 😊 Yes, I love my set, it's such a lovely keepsake from Paris! BUT I wouldn't buy it if it wasn't a souvenir, if that makes sense? The paints are lovely but they are a bit pricey since they're handmade. I want to try their gouache & oils next time
@@softandcosy thank you so much! Looking online …..I think that oils and maybe gouache are really their forte….I have a few of their acrylics and they are awesome! Beautiful colors! Thank you!
@@tlembro np! ☺️ I’ve heard good things about their gouache & their oils seem more popular too, I just don’t know how to use oils yet aha 😂
Loxley arts in the uk sell the same empty palette like the one your charvin’s came in. I also bought one similar from Ali express but the quality isn’t as good as the loxley boxes and they struggle sit flat on a table /worktop.
I'm tempted!! I also saw similar ones on Green & Stone's website, I really want to visit their shop in person to buy one. My Ali express one does lie flat but you're right, it's not as good quality as the Charvin one D:
@@softandcosy I’m so glad you pointed out about the royal blue being so pale I had the same problem Loxley does put those boxes on sale every now and then so keep any eye out. Ken Bromley arts also stocks the loxley boxes too 😉 I love the deep mixing wells they come with perfect for larger washes 😍
@@bluedeva it is quite pale!! It looks similar to Daniel Smith’s King Royal Blue, but I haven’t tried that to compare 🥲 mixing wells like those are so nice!! definitely prefer them to those flat rectangle well tins
@@bluedeva got my eye on the smaller loxley palette it’s so cute
@@softandcosy isn’t it, i managed to get one, it’s their version of the whiskey palette 😍 ps thank you I was trying to think which Daniel Smith blue it reminded me of and you’re spot on 👌🏻🤗
Pyrelene Green half pan, costs almost the same as a full set of 12 half pans Van Gogh set + a brush + 2 palates and the box to carry them! I won't be able to reproduce the granulation,however, I can mix the colours to create the same or similar coulr as the Pyrelene green from DS. 15$ + 5$ for shiping,is WAY too much for a single half pan...
the Perylene Green I swatched is Roman Szmal, it's a full pan for £6.64 compared to £8 for a half pan of DS Perylene Green! But not sure if they're the same price in the US D:
Jackson’s have never given me samples 🥺🤣
you can add them to your cart! usually it's like 10-50p, they have a sample section on their site I think
Ooooh! Cornelissen 😍
I was too shy to film in store, but they have such a nice selection 😫💗
@@softandcosy I know! I’ve been there once.
@@awatercolouristit’s a dream😂❤
@@softandcosy A dream out of Olivander’s (Harry Potter) 😄
@@awatercolourist my favourite art shop anywhere.
did you try a glass dip pen? It might be easier to write with it, because you are gliding with a blunt tip and not a sharp one like in metal ones.
ooh that’s true, it might be smoother!! 🌟 they look so satisfying
@@softandcosy yes :) and you can write with them at different angles with no change in the ink flow thanks to grooves and symmetry :)
@@art_the_crossroadsthe sound is so soothing too - I’d just be scared to drop it!!
@@softandcosy yes it is, but as long as you protect the tip it's mostly fine. And It's not as fragile, it should survive the drop from 15-20 cm if the tip is protected by the cap. I was wondering if it would work if I made a silicon mold and remade it with resin. In theory, as long as the grooves are proper and the tip is nice it should work because physics. :D
Charvin colours don’t really seem very pigmented 👀 maybe tube colours would be nicer
yh their gouache tubes and oils look so nicee, maybe next time haha
Tell me you're old without saying you're old.
Still remember when handmade meant less expensive and better quality than mass produced. I remember when handmade watercolor paint was 3 dollars less expensive per half pan than mass produced. Now these youtubers want twice as much for their crap than daniel smith wants for their fine quality product.
I remember when I got my handmade brass palette made from real brass for $100.00. Now people are paying twice that for brass coated palettes. Gullible generation destroying itself.
Not sure what you mean by ‘these youtubers’ wanting twice as much for their ‘crap’! 🤔
The watercolour set in this video is from Charvin, which is a similar price to the Daniel Smith half pan sets.
If people are looking into artist grade watercolours, I would also recommend Daniel Smith - as you said, the quality is great and reviews & swatches are easy to find. However, it's still a bit pricey. Roman Szmal is a good alternative; great quality but more affordable (at least in the UK).
The solid brass palettes I've seen are over £400, while the Frazer Price brass coated one is £100 :( People could be buying brass coated because it's the more affordable option by far.
$100 sounds amazing though, I bet it's still in great condition too. I guess if you consider inflation the price today is about right
