testing Lidl art supplies

Hello you lovely lot!
In today’s video I test the final art supply from my Lidl supermarket art haul.
I hope you enjoy and let me know your thoughts in the comments!

Good bargain, I quite like water colour pencils but not a favourite of mine. The painting turned out lovely, such a great colour palette. 😍😍😍😍

I love how the ghosting worked in her hair as it left beautiful textures x

She’s lovely..I started my pencil colouring with the cheaper ones and found the same..now I have my Faber Castells in water and normal I have never looked back..these look like they are low on pigment, they may just be dye based., going by how the colours not getting deeper .It’s great showing the others though.I saved for a year for my first set ..Was shaking when I opened the tin and smelt the pencils..But boy oh bow they were beautiful to use.Easier on my poor hands too..I don’t need to press just build.I find it relaxing using pencils ..But yes a small piece can take me 6/8 hrs to do ..A4 pieces days and days ..Stay safe 🥰

When you said Lidl I thought you were saying "little" :) I think these pencils activate much better than Artist Loft and other cheaper brands here in the US. Love the artwork you did with them.

Great image, but it's a shame you were not as impressed with these pencils as you were with the Aldi ones. I love your reviews of products like this, they are always informative and your artistic skill shines through (even when the product doesn't perform as you had hoped). Thank you much for sharing.

I usually pass on any pencils they have other than graphite pencils lol never have much luck with them. most of the other supplies I've tried from Lidls have been ok though and you really cant say no to the price, especially if the supply is for a kid

The painting turned out lovely despite the issues with the pencils. I think that cheaper watercolour pencils tend to be more difficult to use than higher quality ones. I use them for sketching out paintings sometimes. For young kids the IKEA ones are great, they are really pigmented and bright.

Pencils - whatever type - seem to be a bit of a problem with both Aldi and Lidl (by the way, that "i" usually is pronounced like the "ee" in week or week or... at least here in Germany 😁). And even thoughI l l really can make do with cheap art supplies, these often felt way too hard for me. I'd probably rather get Staedtler's (they got a nice student quality set of 12 to start with), the student line of Faber -Castell's (Color Grip, I believe is what they are called. They got these little rubbery dots so they're better to hold, since you can't just slide of) or Koh- I - Noor's (not a German brand, but Czech. I got the Progressos, they are woodless, which I love, since: creating less waste) 🥰 hey, but at least the tin seems almost sturdy, I use the one from the last Aldi pencils I got for storing loose watercolour pans that don't regularly sit in one of my palettes 😅

They don’t look bad at all and good dissolving qualities.

Hi Katy 😊

Considering you were not keen on those watercolor pencils, you created a really lovely piece

I’m sorry I’ve not been able to comment as often on your videos at that moment because my phone needs a new battery, it’s an Apple one which means it’s more difficult - I’m waiting on a gadget to be delivered to me that’s going to make it easier, apparently.

Amazing to know Lidle and Alidi sell art supplies too - I love that stationary section in supermarkets :-D

They looks nice in the beginning...i think u should used them differently...

I just bought these last week aswell, just because I was curious of them, still havn't used them yet, and now I'm thinking, maybe I should gift them to a kid
