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 purchased these today B&M Oldham. £6 for 12. All sets for £36. Bargain 👍
How have they held up? I saw them in b and m today and ended up here before i spend the money?
Same
I just bought 6 markers set for 1.99eur, and they are really good! You can find 12 colors set for 3.99Eur in Action in the Netherlands

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! 😂👍🏻
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.

if you bought them in the Netherlands, you could have saved around 39 pounds!
I just bought them in the Netherlands, in Action and I bought 50 colours for 9.99 euros!!!
@@piwa wow! I saw them aswell, make sure to use the right paper because they flake the paper-
@@piwa same! they work really good :))
Not supposed to be buying anymore craft/art goodies but could not resist these and bought the 6 sets in my local B and M store ( Going to try stamping with them as I'm rubbish at painting 🥴) x BTW, if anyone interested they were £6 per set - BnM store Leeds West Yorkshire [arts and craft isle - I mention this as things are not always where you might expect lol]
How many in the set??
@@alisonbutler5245 they are 72 pens if u buy the whole set and 12 just for one pack
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.
I've never used watercolour pens before but have tried watercolour. I got a 50 box for £20 and a 10 box of greens for £6. I'm glad you gave a little demo on how to use them!
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 :)
I bought all these from b&m 6 pound for 12 markers there 💥
Edit: in the range they are £10
Same here - bought x2 sets of all 6 colours - one for me and one for my daughter in London at art college - she will love them - ive seen them usually at £12.50 per set - bargain x thank you B&M

Bought the entire set from b&m absolutely love them! Bargain price especially when you get a 10% discount!

@@ms.emmajones9659 ehhhh the black I had suddenly stopped working within the week I had it, and I've been finding it hard to create natural looking skin tones with them.
What paintbrush is that. I'm loving the look of it and how the brush end looks
I got some from B&M for £6
I actually just bought these before, and honestly theyre not that bad, altough i dont have all of them. I still havent learned much about them, i dont reallt know how too use them ( i do just not them details)
I got a 50 pack from b&m for £20 and also a 60 pack of the other Colours for £20 at the range. B&M also had these ones in the 10 packs for £6 x
Hey from B&M in you can get 12 for £6 and you still need to get 6 more packs for the whole set
I got it at b&m in port Glasgow /Inverclyde -
I spent £20.00 on a pack of 50 for those Aqua markers set from B and M. This worked out a better value for me!
The video is a few years old now, the same pens are available at much better prices :-)
@@Artanddesignbykb The video is not that old to behonest but the pens are certainly a great bargin. Pens like these do cost significant amount of money at places suchas: WHSmiths, Hobbycraft, Rymonds and many other topend Art Shops when buying a whole collection. 🌟
@@Seharkhan69 Two years is a long time for me. haha.
@@Artanddesignbykb For you it is :due to COVID-19 Pandemic, it still feels like we are in late 2020 where all restrictions have been released!
Hi, where did you get them markers Thankyou
Got given a bunch of 44 coloured pencils but yet can't find them anywhere online or even in Ireland where I live....
they are really cheap here in bélgica, I get a pack of 10 markers for 2€ i bought like 6 boxes or so
Hi! I'm in love with these. Where do you bought this??
you can get them at The Range
@@sahra1150 BnM £6 per set
feeling bad to say that I bought 50 decotime watermarkers for only 10 euro in the netherlands in the store 'action', they work great!
How have they held up? I saw them in b and m today and ended up here before i spend the money?
@@ms.emmajones9659 theyre great , ive made lots of drawings with them , tho i dont use them really often theyre still intact and none of them have dried up so far. sometimes i even mix the colours with some water to use as watercolours :)
I purchased some too, but I got a pack of 60 for £16
This video was quite a few years ago, so glad the price has reduced and more people can enjoy them. Have fun!
u can buy 50 of then in b&m fir £20 x
Prices have sure reduced on these pens since I filmed this around 2 years ago. I keep seeing them in shops so much cheaper than when i got them!
I purchased the 50 pack for £23 at the range
I just bought 6 sets for £6 each from B&M bargains just need to find the other colour sets
How have they held up? I saw them in b and m today and ended up here before i spend the money?
This video was a few years ago. They are still working! I've not used them as much as I thought I would but they've kept well. (Stored horizontally) They are available at much better prices now!
They are 12 pack all together I got six and am going to get the rest soon

@@ms.emmajones9659 I think I might to say I only allowed the six and then I can get the rest next time
Pens, for a creative business, are a perfectly acceptable tax-deductible expense. At least that's my story and I'm sticking to it :)
hehe, love that thinking! This is such an old video now, i do miss my studio looking like that!
I also paid £10 per pack. I did a Disney picture using these and within a few months where is laid down ink, had become almost see through. It looks as though I’d started a picture and forgot to finish it. The colour does not last at all!!!!!
I got mine form B&M in Stockton town for around £5 and got all those ones except the pink because those were the only ones they had in the shop but I'm looking at this because I have no idea how they work because I can always see where I've put the pen on when I add water so let's see if this vid helps lmao _😔_
This can sometimes happen with watercolour pens (of various brands) when using certain types of paper, have you tried using a different watercolour paper?
@@Artanddesignbykb no but I will thanks!

I bought 50 of them for £20
This video was quite a few years ago now, they have reduced in price so much. It is fantastic that people can get a bargain now!
