Love how you speak ...no ahhhhs or uhhhhs or ummmms. You are clear and fun to hear and watch. Not everyone doing videos has that gift. I am a new subbie but not new to ACB. Will watch your other videos over the next few days.
Thanks Ann! I really appreciate your kind words and feedback. These videos are so much fun to make and I enjoy the process. Every once in a while, I do have to edit out an "umm" or two! :)
I have several adult coloring books that I've been meaning to start & the pictures look awesome even before coloring. I like the scrap piece of paper idea so I can choose the right color & not ruin the picture.
Thanks for the tips😊by the way your voice is so calming,l love it!!!
I am re-starting my coloring hobby, which I never actually full developed to begin with. I have begun watching tutorials and found yours to be the best so far. You are a great instructor with practical tips and have a pleasant and calming demeanor. Thank you. I am sorry to learn of Grant and will keep him and his family in my prayers.
Fantastic tips that are very helpful. That look on your face when your dog walked into the wall! You are adorable!
I’m going to listen to all your videos!
I thank you so much for this video. I enjoy and learn so much from you. Please keep sharing your knowledge I appreciate you so much.
Love your tutorials and I'll surely share it I'm fairly new in adult coloring.
I wanted to go back and say thank you for this video because choosing a foundation of colors and then growing from them is something I need to still do. Also learning multiple pencil strokes to achieve different effects. Plus the encouragement of having fun and no great artwork is a race. Thank you Claire.
I love all your tips, especially the color palette!
I am new to coloring. I stumbled on your page. I love your style, tips, personality and finished work. Thank you for sharing
This is the very first video I watched on adult coloring. It inspired me to join the pencil stash fb group but even more it inspired confidence in my desire to begin adult coloring. Thank you!
Thank you so much Sabrina!
Rachel thanks for talking about heavy-handed colorists - I am one. Sometimes it is easier when you paint and you are HH; but like you said if you are too heavy-handed hold the pencil further away. I cannot wait to start coloring this way! Thank you!
Ha! I love your delivery! Great tips and ideas! Liked, subscribed!
Thanks for the great advice and I'll keep Grant and his family in my prayers.
I really appreciate that, thank you!!
I'm a beginner and most of the tips that you are sharing I add them to my coloring also I've watched many coloring videos and I'm learning buy these videos thank you I really enjoyed your video and we'll be watching more
Thanks for sharing your tips. Even if we know some of them it never hurts to hear it again and from a different point of view!
I have to remind myself of them sometimes :) Thanks so much for watching!
Just discovered your channel and wanted to say how much I love it! Thanks for all the excellent information!!!!

great tips, thanks for sharing
These are some lovely tips! :)
I'm brand new to coloring...fascinated..and learning...
Thank you for making this video. I am a beginner colorist and the way you explain things just makes sense. Can you please make more color along videos?
Absolutely! More to come
Hi, thank you for doing this video, the tips were all very helpful :-) Another tip could be... don't ever compare your work to any one else. Everyone colors differently and in their own unique way (I speak from experience ;-) ) It's good to look at and get ideas from other artists but it's also easy to become discouraged. Try to remember you're coloring for fun and relaxation and not to impress anyone. Now to take my own advice..
That is such a good one! You're absolutely right and it translates across everything in life. Thanks so much for watching and contributing a tip :)
Keep coloring - Rachel
Sandra Kennedy I completely agree with this.I am sometimes to heavy handed but that is just the way I color. at least for now. we all learn at different levels.
Sandra Kennedy this is my biggest problem! I'm just getting started and I need to be patient with myself.
I love this video. You are so encouraging and all things seem possible with my coloring. I'm one that gets stressed out when picking out a color palette so maybe do some videos where you color flowers by combining say 4 colors or more and do a color along. Tell the color names and or numbers please. Thank you ☺️
that is a great idea! I'll add it to the list for 2017. Hopefully you can build up your confidence in choosing colors. If you haven't watched it yet, check out this video where I use a scarf as the inspiration for my color palette: czcams.com/video/AFkynGhUbLg/video.html
Using everyday objects might help you gain that confidence :)
Thanks again for watching, I really appreciate it! Keep coloring - Rachel
sites like colorpalettes.net and www.design-seeds.com/ are so helpful for when picking out color palette :)
@@unicorn-ek4pf I know this is a long time after your comment, but I just saw it so I checked out those sites and I wanted to say they look like they will be very useful. They have color combos that I've never used and probably wouldn't have ever thought of using, but they look fun to try. It was very nice of you to tell the OP about them. I wouldn't have ever thought to look for sites like that. I will definitely be looking at them again in the near future. :)
You are such a charming, accomplished, and enjoyable teacher! Thank you for sharing your talent and experience. Terribly sorry to hear about your friend's little boy being so very ill. Cannot donate today as I would like to, but will remember to return to the PayPal site for Grant at the 1st of the month of July.
Love your Work.. hugs from Denmark ♥️
I am so excited I really enjoyed this video and I am very sorry about grants I will check it out underneath the description box and I and I want to say the tips are really really awesome I have some sketchbooks up in my room I can use in a contest at the colors before I can put them in my coloring books books
I love your videos!!!!
Good tips. My hands hurt so much. Love the pencil stash intro :) You're the best!
Thank you!! Yes, sore and stiff fingers are a definite sign of a colorer :)
Thanks so much for watching!!
I love your intros! Funny and cute!
THANKS! I love hearing that folks are enjoying my sense of humor!

I'm a new subscriber. So far I have loved your videos.
Do you have a tutorial on how to color a lamp or any light source at night and day?
Hi I don't know your name. I love your videos. I love how you teach while coloring. I joined your Facebook page and everyone is so helpful. I go for simple things. Scared of complicated ones as I get frustrated. I was really good with IPad coloring. I find it hard to imagine what he colours will look like on the page. I love your enthusiasm! Fernanda
Hello Fern! I'm Rachel and thanks so much for your kind words. Its easy to get frustrated at the complicated ones, but if you take your time and don't let it get to you, that's where the magic happens!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
Thanks so much for watching!!
You're welcome and I did make a donation for Grant! Thank you; you're very big hearted!
Thank you for adding my request to your 2017 list of Videos to Do🤗. I've watched all your videos and love them all, and the scarf one was great. I think I just need to practice so I'll get more comfortable picking my colors. I get all in a panic that I'm going to ruin the picture 🙄
Haha, I get that way too sometimes! Practice really does give you that confidence, but that piece of scratch paper is great, too!
Thank you SO MUCH for watching! I really do appreciate it and keep those ideas for more videos coming!
Keep coloring and happy holidays :)
Rachel
Not only are your coloring videos great learning tools. But your fun to watch. Sorry about your friends child. These are the little ones, who need all our help. Kathy
Thanks Kathy! So glad you're enjoying them.
Keep coloring - Rachel
Rachel. What a howl; I’m so slow. Today watching your opening, I understood “pencilstash”. I had always thought it was simply a stash, a bunch of pencils. But I didn’t get why you were holding a pencil under your nose. I’m that slow.
Love your channel.
I cut my bangs today and I so regret it too. when you mentioned that comment super funny! 😂
+Maricela Amezcua The struggle is real! 😋 Nothing takes longer than waiting for your regretful bangs to grow out, lol
PencilStash I subscribe 👌
Sometimes I stop coloring a page because I don't like the way it is looking. Went back to it today and feel the need to complete it even though I don't like it.
Beautiful
Never mind I finally found its secret hiding spot and pounced, shuwee, I be a tired old lady, but I'm a member now. I feel So special--haha😍
Wonderful video. Just subscribed and looking forward to more tips. Where did you get the swatch page for Polychomos please? I really like having room for light to dark.
In this video you show a paper with faber-castell colors with the equivalent prismacolor ....... Where can I find that paper..it would be so helpful. And, your video's are fantastic I have colored everyone of your pictures. It has helped me tremendously. Keep up the good work. You're great!
Hi, I came across your channel today, Thanks for the great tips. :-)
You're so welcome, thanks so much for watching!
I just watched your blender pencil on the flowers. I’m very new. I need a list of the colors on the different color flowers. Please send me a list. Thanks so much for sharing your talents and time. Debi
Thank you for the tips! Just Subscribed!
Thank you so much for watching!
PencilStash Your Welcome!
love your tips and would love to help Grant but I can't at this time but I will pray for him every night...
Aw thank you, your prayers are greatly appreciated! Bless your heart!
Great tips! Do you have a link for the coloring book you showed?
Great tips
Thanks Judy!
Oh WOW it's 2018..I didn't realize it was 2 years ago..Yet I ENJOY your videos..And I have many from different people..Yours is my 'Go Too' site.. Need to look for more recent yet I still learned these tips I WILL use😁. I am wondering.. I've seen people use a sheet of?? To lay down on finished areas, to lay their hand as not to smear their work.. Can you or anyone let me know the BEST to use.. I was thinking wax paper..but??.. I APPRECIATE ALL YOUR INFORMATION AND TO Watch you color the Prettiest drawings or??. Thanks!! I will search FB to see if you are out there!! Please have a Blessed Sweet day!! Enjoy
Would love your opinion on which pencil is best, or if they are equal based on what you’re coloring. Specifically Prismacolor v Faber Castell. Thanks!
first love the video
Thanks so much for watching!
Hi just watched your video, very inspiring.... was wondering what if any other mediums you use, markers, pastels etc... also if you recommend using a thicker paper or not. Instead of the books it came in?
Hi, what is the go to pencils and blenders that you mentioned? Thanks 😺
lately i'm thinking to get into that adult coloring... as a kid i liked to draw but never got serious with it. so i'm not very knowledgeable.
so, what kind of pencils should i start with... I search around the local websites that sell pencils to get an idea of what is selling.
i don't think going for the very expensive ones like the Polychromos is a good idea, since i'm not even sure how long will i stick with this hobby... plus the Prismacolor pencils that most youtubers use are not sold in my country.
But i also don't want to buy some pencils that are for the kindergarten and are basically trash.
Seems like the Faber Castell are the most widely spread here, so i guess i will go with some of them... i guess the Castle line is for kids, and i will avoid it, so should i go with the Classic? or maybe bump a bit the money and go with the Grip or Art Grip?
Also what is the difference between standard color pencils and akvarel/watter color pencils, from what i understand the Grip are akvarel pencils.
Thanks for the tips. I love coloring! I got Tula Pink coloring book in a drawing today and I am over the moon! Can you tell I don't win often? LOL
Oooo congratulations!!!! What a fun giveaway!!! Enjoy it!
Hi! This was a very helpful video! Thank you for making it! I have a question about making a color i may not yet own.(i have not colored one stroke yet.) Let's say I'm mixing red and blue. Would I do a complete layer of one color and then go over it again to make it purple? Does it make a difference with pencils as to which color to start with? And, would you use the same light, hold the pencil way back, light strokes? Thank you so very much for clarifying this for me! I am going to subscribe for your videos and blogs if you have one. 💜
You really inspire..... I color but I'm not really relaxing.... my mind is going full speed ahead on my problems, or things I. Need to do. Etc... how do you learn how to clear your mind and find that little girl inside of yu that use to love to color zone out...
Hello there! Great question. While you color, have you tried listening to music or having a show or Netflix on in the background? I do podcasts most of the time, and I really am able to focus on the noise and one what i'm doing in order to truly use it to relax. I hope you find what works for you!
What if you like coloring in what other adults called ( Kid coloring books like santa and barbie ? )
May I ask where you got the Poly/Prisma comparison sheet you showed?
In another video she said she find it in there website. print it out and fill color by herself.
What paper is best to use with pencils if I am stamping a design? Thank you
Hello Norine, could you explain a little further what type of stamping you'd like to do? I'll certainly try to steer you in the right direction, if I can.
My biggest problem is taking my time. It seems I’m always in a hurry.
I'm new to adult colouring. I feel like adult colouring book is really hard for me. What if I messed up everything. They look difficult for me. Please make a video on it.
Hello! Welcome to the world of adult coloring! I highly suggest a few things: 1) don't be hard on yourself, you certainly aren't messing anything up if you're enjoying yourself 2) I recommend checking out a digital/printable coloring page service like coloringbookcafe.com where you can print coloring pages on demand. Its nice to re-print it and start over if you don't like the direction it's going.
Good luck!
@@PencilStash thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
If you like to color heart and flower designs you will like my newly published coloring book Hearts and Flowers for sale on Amazon.com! The link to purchase is in the video description! Check out the video for my coloring boo czcams.com/video/mlUP2HcNUBs/video.html k:

Adult coloring books give me too much anxiety. I have about 5 of them with only 1 page of each barely started. 😔
WHERE IS THE SUBSCRIBE BUTTON, GIRL???
"Don't end up with pressure regret." Hahaha

I love your videos...except the music. I'd rather have silence. It sometimes drowns out your voice and you have such a pleasant one.
Am I the only straight guy that colors?
