Love the Renesans intense ❤ nice method😊

[JudeandherPencil]

Ohh I love the magnet trick!!✨ here’s another gooder… if your trying to try cheap paints, they’ll crack when dried, so add a drop of food grade glycerin to your half pan when the paint is still wet, mix well with a toothpick or pin… then let dry. The glycerin will add elasticity to the Paint stopping it from cracking 👍😻

I like tubes the best because not only can you make your own multiple pallets but you can share with friends!

[Stacy_SJA]

Can’t believe I’ve been sitting for hours peeling and sticking and glueing tiny magnets on the bottom😩 GENIUS!!!

[yuritzielia]

🤯 my brain after seeing your method! ❤ thank you

[sherijohnson]

Bitty silver magnets INSIDE the pan!??!? so much smarter than the black mat magnets! Smart AND talented! You're awesome, girl! Thanks for everything you

[BB-nzsk]

Oh my gosh - I could have saved myself such mess using super glue. I glued my magnets to the bottom....but I think your method is so much more efficient!!! Brilliant!

[forevermachiko]

Tubes are better . Love your channel ❤️❤️❤️

Some half pans come in sets with self adhesive magnets and I love them for making pallets. It's so easy and I don't risk having tiny hands eating or losing tiny magnets because they come on sheets.

[PerkyPalette]

I love them both. I collect them all like Pokémon lol

[PayneWaterStudio]

If you want to dry them quicker fill the pan 1/3 and let it dry about 24 hours then fill the pan half way mix and let try another 24 hrs then you can top it off and wait another 24hrs for a total of 3 days. I fill mine half way

Oh my gosh! How smart! Happy painting indeed!

[PerrisMarie]

[robinrodgers]

You inspire me, AND you make me smile, 😁❣️Thanks, Robin

You also get much more paint for the money. Tube are more economical by far.

MAGNETS IN THE PAN:
This
Is
Genius

[ghentsy]

I use sheet or tape magnets that I'd cut to size of the pan -- half or full. These small tiny magnets are great idea. 💡 Oh thank you 🙏

[thatswhatshesaid.literally]

I wonder if the paints that have iron oxides in them would be affected by the magnet being placed so close while they're still liquid? That's an amazing idea regardless though!!

[Rockymtnbloom]

Great idea, thanks Krist! The holders with metal clips suck! I have glued magnets to the bottom outside of pans but putting on the inside like she does might work well. If you have a plastic flat palette instead of metal, you can glue down a magnetic sheet, cut to size, from a magnetic vent cover. By the way the best order to put pigments in the pan is warm on one end and cool on the other like a color wheel.

You think you can do this with gouache?? I love the idea of having a limited pallete of gouache like this
