Did some searching, and apparently Cra-Z-Art is owned by the same family that started Rose Art. It was sold to Mega Block, which was bought by Mattel. Just last year the family bought back the Rose Art name.

Tbh I've never particularly hated a specific brand, but those colorful pencils which literally broke every second you write with made me rage a lot as a kid

[dovejensen]

Are we sure that the infamy of rose art isn't just crazy art? Their packaging is almost identical. Crazy art crayons are not at all consistent. Rose art isn't the worst though.

My mom only bought crazy art art supplies for me. I was shook when my friends let me use their Crayola. Imagine my shock when I discovered Prismacolor colored pencils in high school lol.

[Laceylunai]

When I was really into teaching myself to draw, I went through so many packs of roseart coloured pencils because they were literally half the price and their quality was not that bad

[TeaForThought]

I was born in '89 and grew up despising RoseArt. Maybe their 2000s era improved on the formulas of the 90s? The true villain of childhood art supplies, though, was those crayons you got at restaurants that were basically candles without wicks-- virtually no pigment and all chunky wax. They weren't even worth stealing. Now that I think about it, that was probably by design.

growing up poor, rose art was so slept on--It was, as you said, a middle ground between crayola and cra-z-art. cra-z-art is the true art supply demon.

[jennifernoble]

The biggest offender were the ART SETS! Every time your family thought they were getting you an amazing deal with all kinds of art supplies and it was absolute garbage!

Rae, please review art sets and tell me if you can find a decent one!

The main thing that I remember about RoseArt compared to Crayola was how much faster they would dry out, but CraZart wasn’t much better when it came to that either

[oop]

I remember roseart being so waxy with the crayons that they barely left color and left chunks in the pages

[BrownEyedPrincess]

I think the big issue why these other brands were hated was because they leaned into being knockoff crayola. It would’ve been better if they had unique packaging instead of just making themselves look identical to crayola only not being the same. Crayola was so fun for color names etc. if the other brand did a better job of emulating in those ways instead of just copying the packaging we wouldn’t have hated opening the rose art in class in front of 25 judgy kids lol

[crazeddoodler]

I used to think Rose Art was the higher brand cause they were rarer and their crayons had a cool smell/ texture :, )

[veeva]

"everyone knows what crayola smells like, it smells like childhood",

as someone from the Netherlands, who never used Crayola let alone crayons in general, I have this with the scent of Bruynzeel pencils, those were the first I ever got and I still know how my first big set of them smelled.

[schindel]

Had to Google what happened to RoseArt, and apparently they were re-acquired in 2021 by the original family founders. The company that acquired then was... Cra-z-art. They own both and said Roseart will be seen on shelves again.

[aprizzicot]

So funny because I literally just found a bag of my Crayola and rose art color pencils yesterday. And all of mine are from the 90s. I was pleasantly surprised that they still do the thang! 💕 Great video!

[Zelologist]

When you were talking about the brush that come with the knock-off watercolors, it reminded me of this morning when I was brushing my teeth and my toothbrush literally snapped in half lmao

[meh_lady]

I think RoseArt did improve their crayon formula in the 90’s or so. I was a grade schooler in the 70’s/80’s and even as a non-artsy kid I knew RA was hot garbage. Super waxy and sticky with almost no color payoff, almost transparent.

My husband can make the awful restaurant crayons SING, it’s bananas. When our daughter was little he always did special drawings for her with them while we waited for our food. He would ask the waitress to bring every color they had and used utensils to scratch into thick layers, tightly rolled up napkins for stumps and his fingers to blend, and who knows what else for tools. He made the most amazing art out of awful supplies! 😂 Sadly that was before we carried cameras in our pockets and the finished pieces got lost along the way. I wish I had just one of his back of the kid’s menu masterpieces! I should get some super cheap crayons and see if he still has the magic touch. ☺️

I think the reason Crayola is sold out is because of school supplies shopping. Normally kingergarten/elementary uses looots of crayola.

[thetwistedsamurai]

I never knew RoseArt art supplies was so hated. I never minded them tbh. I remember using those Watercolors in school as a kid and they worked great. I think I had some watercolor pencils from them too?

I had both the Crayola 64 pack with the sharpener and some RoseArt crayons/pencils and markers. RoseArt is fine! I remember especially loving the markers.

So essentially, we didn't know how good we had it with Rose Art until Crazy Art happened.
