Time to create. – Premium Colored Pencils, 72 Piece Set.

Standard

I have been to a couple of art schools in my past. I have also raised three boys. So, I have gone through my share of colored pencils. Colored pencils are all the rage nowadays with adults. Especially because of the wide spread adult coloring phase that is wide spread. Coloring is a creative, mind opening, and relaxing habit. It’s very cathartic to those who have a lot of stress in their lives. I am really happy with this set of colored pencils from StrapRight.

They are soft core colored pencils, and come in a great tin storage case. So many companies are skimping on the packaging nowadays, and I think this tin really makes a difference. It was definitely a thing I looked for when I went to art school. Your pencils had a much better chance of not getting broken that way. It really does help to prolong their lifespan. When you open this tin, you will only see one tray of colored pencils. The other tray is located underneath it. When you are using them, you can place the top tray in the open lid spot, thus enabling you to have both trays of colored pencils available to you at once. These are 7” pencils, and you get a whopping 72 of them. To top it off, they are all different colors as well. They all come pre-sharpened, so they are ready to go upon arrival. All of my pencils arrived in perfect condition. The colors are true to what you see. You do not have to do layer upon layer to get the hue you are going for. They have a medium softness value, so you do not have to apply a lot of pressure when coloring, like you do with your kids cheap Crayola or Roseart colored pencils. My son hates those now, after trying my better quality pencils. They really don’t compare. Also included with these pencils is an EBook , 50 page, adult coloring book. You can print and color. It’s nice to have that options, especially if your kids want to color too. The value of this set is incredible. The colors are vibrant, and you have so many choices. It really is a great, well rounded set.

Wow. New and Exciting! – Just Add Color Monthly Subscription Box.

Standard

Adult coloring books are the new craze today. I know so many adults who just love to color in these. They help you to relax, de-stress. They trigger the creative side of your brain, which is very important. Adult coloring books are not just for adults either. They are great for kids who still like to color, but have outgrown regular coloring books. Most children’s coloring books are geared to really young ages. I have a 9 year old son who still loves to be creative, but won’t touch a regular coloring book. Even his drawing has turned to drawing apps on his tablet. This is a great way to get your older children unplugged!

I am really excited about this new monthly box concept:

I received a box to sample. When I opened my box, I really did not know what to expect. Let me tell you what, I was really surprised, and in a good way too. I received 2 coloring books of different sizes, and many different coloring options. The pictures in both books are only printed on one side, which I always prefer. No bleed through to the other side this way. The pages in both books are perforated, in case I want to take one out, and frame it. Also included in my box was a pencil/pen storage case, and a box of 18, double tipped markers. They are water based, and non-toxic. Which is great if you have nosey pets, and small children in your home. I have asthma and allergies, and these markers had no scent to bother me. It was a great, well balanced set. The set had a lot of floral in it, but it also had animal prints, and abstract prints, so something for everyone. It even had some great quotes on some of the pictures. The double tipped markers are great. There is a fine tip on one side, and a broader tip on the other. The markers really cover well, too.

Win a 3 month subscription to Just Add Color box subscription. So exciting. Adult coloring books are all the craze. They aren’t just for adults either. I have a now 9 year old son. He still likes to be creative, but regular coloring books are too young for him. This is a great way to keep older kids tapped into their creative side. We all know it boosts their brain power, as well as ours. As we adults start to get older, we need to keep stimulating our brain. Regular day to day work doesn’t do it either. That is actually repetitive work for the brain. This is a great way to stimulate your brain while letting yourself relax and de-stress.

Yea, coloring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! – CrownArt- 24 Pack of Colored Pencils.

Standard

Yea, coloring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s fun for both adults and children. Even if you think you don’t like coloring, I bet you still have fun helping your kids, lol. That’s what we adults do. Drawing is fun, whether it be free hand or in one of those new Adult Coloring books going around. This is a set of 24 colored pencils. They used high quality pigments, and it shows when you are drawing. The coverage is great, and they are soft to write with. You can do shading well, hard line drawing well; full spectrum colored pencils. These are water resistant, fade resistant/light resistant. They arrive pre-sharpened and ready to go. Mine sharpen easily as well. I absolutely love how vibrant the colors are. They really make your pictures come alive. My son is 8 and likes the adult coloring books as well. He thinks kids coloring books are too childish for him now. I’m so glad there’s this option for him now. With adult coloring books, you need better quality pencils. The areas to color can be so fine and dainty. You can layer with these and blend. Wait till you use them the first time, you will be so happy with them. I, until recently, have only been using low end pencils, that I buy for my son. I always hated using those. They just do not cover well at all. After moving on up to high quality colored pencils, I can never go back again. I used them years ago in Art School. I am so glad they are back in my life. There is no comparison. My son is now officially spoiled too, lol. Coloring, drawing, creating, is so relaxing. I am so glad there are quality colored pencils like these from Crown Art. The colors are just so vibrant in this set.

Color it up with Soucolor’s Premium Colored Pencils.

Standard

I love color. So it only makes sense that I like to use colored pencils. I homeschool my son, and nowadays almost all of the curriculum is on the computer. Colored pencils are inspiring and used for fun, but is also helps him with his handwriting skills. This Soucolor pack is a 48 pack of colored pencils. They arrive well sharpened and ready to roll. All of mine arrived in perfect condition as well. They are nontoxic, so your children can use them. These also have a 3.3mm core, and the colors are true. They cover pretty well while drawing. I did not have to go over an area to get coverage. I love the deep and vibrant colors. You can use these anywhere from doodling to art work. Premium pigments were used with these pencils, and you can tell. They write soft, and with easy coverage. The really cool feature to these pencils is that they were made out of reforested quality cedar wood. They have a hexagonal shape to them, and they are comfortable to hold and draw with. You really can’t go wrong with this set.
