Oh my goodness! Kristy! I found a vintage palette today at a thrift shop! I thought of you! I totally scooped it! It’s red white and green and says Fairy Land… looks like 1940’s maybe idk. I’m so happy I can’t stand it! So fun! 🎨♥️
Hey Kristy! I'm enjoying this so much! What a fun trip down Kristy Rice vintage watercolor tin lane! I've seen an earlier video where you shared some of your tins, but you really outdid yourself with this one 🤩
And I ordered your travel brush too. I won't be saving it just for travel 😊Thanks for all you do to keep our creative and fun juices flowing!
Oh thank you!
The musical instrument on the Lyra pencil box is a Lyre. Angels are portrayed playing lyres.
Ahhh well that makes a whole bunch of sense!!! Thank you!!
1:36:11 The donkeys on the two tins you're showing here remind me of the lovable donkey in Shrek: "We can stay up late...swapping manly stories and in the morning I'm making waffles!" 😂😂😂Shrek is one of my fave animated flicks👍
We love Shrek around here too!!
i'm obsessed with these, I love how these were made.
Im on replay, from Sweden..And i use your colors and brushes and love them!!
Awesome! Thank you!
How exciting to find someone else who is obsessed with repurposing. I am new to watercolor, but have already found I am going to be completely crazy with putting my paints in every kind of container I can find to create a new palette with. I absolutely love, love, love your collection. Your enthusiasm is contagious and I'm a little afraid this could become a new obsession for me. These are all so wonderful and fun!!! I'm going to have to go online and look up some of these online. I don't get out to thrift stores anymore.
It’s an absolutely fun fun hobby for sure!!
Love your palette tours.
Fun video. I bought an old beat up palette from the 40s. it was in a pathetic condition, rusty and the paints were unusable. I gave it some TLC and the result is soooo cute. On a different note - I get the 'culturally sensitive thing'. On the other hand it seems weird to look at an iconography from days past with today's eyes. I wonder how our images of today are considered by eyes of the future. I guess today we produce a lot that is cringeworthy in the future when it comes to treating the less fortunate, the elderly, the children, the animals.....
I agree. It’s a hard thing for me. I want to admire the past and know that it was a different time but also some imagery just goes knots in my stomach now. So for me it’s just about each individual buying decision and what’s going to make me feel joy when I look at an item :)
Thanks for showing all of your palettes. You made my day.
I'm so glad!
Wonderful collection, I love usable collections. You use and have a purpose for each one.
Thanks so much! 😊
My favourite palette was actually the last one you opened. Love the whole vibe and muted colours 💜
this should be the perfect thing to listen to while i paint
Ooooh yes definitely!!
I just painted 5 cards using my vintage Arcadian set. So much fun to collect these tins. I have about 30.
What a fun hobby! Thanks for sharing!
You bet!
My favorite was the really big Alice in wonderland! So beautiful! My « white whale » vintage palette is one I saw in a documentary called « Royal Paintbox, artistry of King Charles », at about 33:30 in the CZcams video. He shows a sketchbook with an integrated metal 8 pan palette, with a space for a brush! Never seen anything like that anywhere else! So practical! But he doesn’t show the front of the book so I don’t know how to find it! 😅great video, Kristy!
Thank you so much Kristy! Was fun!
You are so welcome!
Kristy, the "elton john one, I think actually is what they called a 'beat nick" and those sunglasses are on him 'cause they were the cool or neat rather, style for beat nicks, who were often artist, and listened to Jazz, should be a 50's thing.
I fell asleep during a video of Prussian blue pigment comparison and woke up to this video... I love vintage pallets but raising 3 kids I had to prioritize. Luckily, 2 of the kids were girls who are now adults and went through extensively and expensive eyeshadow phases. See where I'm going here? Oh yeah, frugal mom has her paints in repurposed eyeshadow pallets.
Love it! Both the eyeshadow thang and the fact that a nap brought you here!!
Bought your book, Free Spirited Watercolour. Love it. Love your enthusiasm as well. Keep it up!
Awesome! Thank you!
Just finished watching this video and it was such fun, especially the last set of paints…thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it! It was soooo long!!
@@KristyRice Was I right about the polish paints I wrote in my previous comment?
Have fun on your European trip! If you happen to visit Brussels, make sure to look up! Seems strange, but we have a lot of street art and interesting architecture, especially Art nouveau 😊
And if you like gardens, I recommend the botanical gardens of Meise (just outside brussels). The one at the center of Brussels is more of a public park now, and the royal greenhouses don’t open to the public until the end of April. Meise has a small castle, greenhouses, art exhibits, lovely ponds… it’s great for inspiration!
Can’t wait to see your adventures! And I love the palette tour!
I won’t be in Brussels this time-was there in 2019! Had a verrry awkward but funny experience at the Dali/Magritte exhibit there 😂😂😂
those mini palletes are rhe best !!!!!!!!!!!!! too adorable! i have a few vintage palletes i bought when i had more money, a larger one with pirates that sadly is getting rusty, i will try that killz u mentioned! an adorable super tiny one with a little dutch girl & scotty dog, i think, its in the bottom of my purse I'll have to dig it out to be sure. one large one like you had with the kangaroo and the little kids, the boy painting, and then a circus one with a lion a carasoal(?) however u spell that! and little raised mixing wells with a couple clowns, monkey, elephant on each well. they dont have different paints in them but i keep one in my bathroom to paint in the tub (thats the rusting one ofc!) then one in my room with sennelier only, one in my room with all brands that is my daily one, & one in my purse. i adore vintage palletes and am so glad i snagged a few before they became more popular because i looked at ebay tonight and the prices are outrageous compared to when i got mine!
They lost definitely are, but keep looking because you can come across a steal every once in a while. For example I got a set of refill paint for my Kopy Kat tin for 20 USD.
Team replay! I have 2 of the kopy cat pallets and one of mine is also completely full! A little used but still full. Colors are gorgeous! The seller i got it from on ebay shows from the 1930s!
Mine says Dark Green for that green color! Id love to send you pictures of it if you'd like!
Oooh 1930’s???!!!!!
Yes please!!
@@KristyRice yup! Its also an "the american crayon company" product like the 2 right after. I was wrong about my other one, it just says 32 paints, the seller of that one said 1950s, the outside of the tins are pretty different, but the inside is basically identical
If it says West Germany, it is from before the wall came down. It was East and West Germany before the Berlin Wall came down. Sin e then, just Germany.
this is so relaxing ☺☺☺
Glad you think so!
I'm in love with the poodle carrying the paint brush palette case!! 🐩 I adore poodles. We have and have had poodles and goldendoodles. Absolutely my favorite dogs!! ❤ It was really fun to see your collection! 🥰 It made me do a little history dig. The American Crayon Company had several purchases and became Prang many years later. Biney and Smith became Crayola. Just thought you might enjoy those little tidbits! 😉
I’m ecstatic to know those tidbits!!!!
@@KristyRice 🤗😍🥰
Team replay here-I love this idea ever since I started following you Kristy! I bought my first vintage tin a month ago and bought a Donald Duck one because my grandson’s name is Donald Duck! True story! I will be using your drop the magnet in the pan first technique for sure. I can see how these could snowball quickly into a collection because I like so many of them.
That is awesome!
Team replay here, in Australia 🇦🇺 Have been looking forward to this live! Am going to settle back and enjoy! 💜
Hope you enjoy!
i wish someone would reproduce those palletes! the ones with little kids & animals are just so adorable i love them and want them all! i may have to paint them or something haha
Hmmm!! Maybe someone will!!!
FYI - long time ago for the rust spots I borrowed a small bottle of shiny white model enamel paint which worked (from my uncle who's hobby is model cars etc LOL) Later I found you can buy them for about $2 bucks.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
-I loved learnning how to use heat to remove tape on paper, haha. I have no vintage palates, but will keep my eye out for them, especially if i get to go yard selling in old atlanta again.
I loved learning about the heat too lol!!
Royal coat of arms of U.K. . LION REPRESENTING ENGLAND AND THE UNICORN REPRESENTING SCOTLAND . Gorgeous paint . I could never use them ones . I’m in love with the box too . In the days of true craftsmanship at its best . I’m in England and so jealous !
Ahhhh thanks for sharing!
Kristy Rice, U have gained a new follower in me. U have a personality kinda like mine & I think that's what I enjoy most about u & the way you explain things where ppl can relate. The optimistic way of looking at things. Creativity is contagious!! Can you tell me how you repurposed the paints in your Kopy Kat palette? I think that was the one you mentioned, if not i'm sorry about the confusion. U covered many vintage paint boxes, tyvm by the way! Ive never seen such a large vintage w/c paint tin haul. That's something else we have in common. I love old tins & the paint inside. I look forward to your response. If it's easier to show in a video, just let me know & I'll watch for it.
Welcome!!
With the shallow watercolour tins that you have instead of using half pants that don’t fit, you could get empty eyeshadow tins and use them as your pan for water colours 31 purple fish uses these you can also get them in send rectangle shapes and miniature squares
👍🏻👍🏻
I put Paul Rubens Qiaomei in the first 24 slots of my botanical palette in the live unboxing I did of it. Not sure what I will use to fill the rest of it.
I need to understand more about these Paul Rubens variety I keep hearing about!
@@KristyRice I pretty much have all the watercolor sets except the 4th generation set. I am a huge fan of every single set. Well except the opaque watercolor set. Only because they crack badly as they continue to dry. I wish I had have known and I would have put a drop of glycerin in each pan as I was panning them.
Replay,but i still want to see them.❤
I want that travel dagger!!!!!
😘😘😘😘
Lyra still makes color pencils. They are made in Germany.
Hey Kristi! Love you!
Hey!!
Team replay!!! BOOOOP!
😘😘😘
I love looking at the vintage palettes! I was wondering if you have ever tried the watercolor brand uretake ? maybe Gansai Tambi ?
Yesss love!!! You might like this vid:

Oh, and how do you display your cute finds??? I am thinking of tilted shelves to actually see the quirky designs. But real estate will become an issue.... (Or a 'rotating' exhibit. Gives me the chance to play with them). The very shallow tins can be filled with ultra flat pans like they are used in eye shadow palettes. Stick a magnet tape to the palette and the mini pans will not fall out. This amount suffices for out door miniatures.
Great idea!!
Team replay! So I have started looking for old paint tins primarily because of you. Antique shops, thrift stores, yard sales. I have several dealers looking for me also. I can only find them on eBay. Where do you find yours. I am making a collage on my art room wall with them.
eBay is my go to as well!
Excellent collection! If I send you a couple of photos, can help me identify a tin that I believe belonged to my grandmother? It has an ocean scene on the front and contains 50 small colors in a grid format, with two elongated colors that are unlabeled along the bottom road. The only text I can find, other than the color names in the grid, is “made in England”.
Sounds lovely!
X X x x That was me Kristy
Kristy what size mini magnets do you use?
Team replay😊
J’adore votre énergie!
Merci!!
Now I have to search for vintage tin.
Yesss!!!
