Big Book of Color Charts by RubyCharmColors | Review & Giveaway!

[@ColorfullyOptimistic]

She does have an artist edition coming out that is spiral bound with thicker paper soon. Last I talked to her (about a month ago) she was aiming around this time. I did buy this one, but the spine really gets in the way, so can't wait to see the artist's edition. She put an amazing amount of work into this for sure!

[@maryshaffer7300]

What an awesome book! I like that the names of the colors are already written next to the chart boxes and you can have everything in one book.

[@dianaadams1495]

Thank you for a brilliant review video. I’m just starting out on my colouring journey and never realised there were so many different males and types of pencil. This will be a valuable resource in the years to come. Thank you so much for your videos.

[@kittidawg6982]

Very informative review claire which is the reason I watch all your videos. Was thinking about getting this book and now I have watched your video i have added it to my wishlist.! I had just started to swatch all my art supplies it never used to appeal to me but now it does and this book has made it even more appealing 🤩 Thanks Claire 😊

[@carolthorpe8600]

Looks great Claire, much better than my loose leaves in a lever arch file ! Thank you for the review of such a fantastic book that must have taken ages to put together.

[@elzannemurdoch3483]

Wow this swatch book is amazing! So much thought and effort has gone into this book! Well done! Thanks Claire for sharing this review 😊 and for all your awesome coloring content!

[@BarbaraColour]

Hello Claire, oh my God, this is really THE book I was looking for, but even if I had done it myself, I couldn't have imagined all the wonderful ideas of Ruby Charm Colors!!! 😲😲😲 It's incredible, it's really a book made by a colourist, so many brilliant ideas ! I love everything in that book : the beautiful drawings (it makes the book so precious !!! 🤩🤩🤩), the different shapes of each colour chart, the calligraphy, the blank pages with only squares, the pages for each colour of all our brands. Even the black pages for watercolour pencils, everything is made for the pure happiness of each colourist. 🤩🤩🤩 I try my luck, thank you so much to you and to Susan for this giveaway ! 😍😍😍

[@andreaferretti100]

Great guide book for our actual and future art supplies! Love Susans art and when we think she has done her best she still keeps catching us up!

[@Deedster56]

Claire, oh my goodness, I absolutely need this book and thank you ever so much for introducing it to us! I subscribed to your channel earlier this year and have had so much fun watching your videos since then. You are right, Suzy has put out an absolute gem of a resource here and if I am not the lucky winner then i’ll be clicking your link to get my copy on Nov. 20th. Thank you for the review and the chance to win ❤️

[@norwegiancolorist]

This book is sooo neat! I don't even know how many times I have started new swatch books, lol.. Lovely review Claire!

[@camcab147]

I think that book covers everything colourists need to keep all their swatches together. It's certainly well thought out and collated. Brilliant! Thanks for showing it to us, Claire 😎

[@chrissemelbauer8111]

Thanks so much for the thorough review! I love the book; I especially like the pages where you can fill in by color.

[@ColourBrightBex]

This is amazing! What a great idea.... will def be investing in one of these! Thanks for the review 👍👍👍👍

[@cecieh]

What a thorough, well-thought-out swatch book! I haven’t seen any quite like it before. Would love to have one; I have so much swatching to do! Thanks for sharing this with us.

[@KerriBenskin]

Great review Claire. Lovely book with a ton of space! Great for organizing all the sets.

[@juliaomcs]

Wonderful swatch book and easy way to see the pencils and markers you are missing with them pre numbered. Great addition to our stash. Thanks for the preview.

[@mandyronaldsoncolouring]

Thank you so much Claire and Susan from RubyCharms. I am crazy in love with this book. What an extraordinary amount of effort and research that has gone into this book. Mind blowing. So very exciting!!! Thank you for the wonderful opportunity to possible won a copy. I would so appreciate being included in the giveaway entries please. Thank you xxxx

[@NatalieBramasole]

Thanks for the video. What a great idea. Love this book. Very nice pics to colour and very much place to swap the pencils you have.

[@katd6511]

What a great book! So many pages to fill with swatches. It would definitely hold all my supplies

[@rubycharmcolors]

Thank you so much for the kind and thorough review, Claire! This book was definitely a labor of love and a tremendous amount of work (it's just little old me drawing, researching, organizing, doing the layout work, etc.) and I hope that people find it fun and useful. In addition to creating designs to color, I also love to color when I have time and, like many of you, I am addicted to art supplies. A big part of the inspiration for creating the Big Book of Color Charts was my own wish to have all of my pencils charted out in one place. It was a challenge deciding which charts to include and which to leave out, though the feedback from my coloring team and the members of the Ruby Charm Colors facebook community was a tremendous help. And with all the blank charts, everyone should have plenty of space for some of the lesser know pencils. Since I order many of my pencils just a few at a time (full sets are usually beyond my budget), I plan to use the book to keep track of what I have and what I need. Speaking of ... I have been hearing from a lot of people who are say the book is inspiring them to try more pencil brands. Let's just hope we all don't go broke buying more art supplies, lol! A note on the paper quality: I know it is not the very best (the curse of having to use KDP as many of us independent coloring book artists realize) but I tried hard to make the paper work by using black-backed pages, etc.. And the paper does okay with colored pencils and small amounts of water. We are all hoping Amazon / KDP eventually gives coloring book artists better options, but for now it is what it is. For those who want higher quality, there will be a small batch of Artist Edition books printed by an independent printing company coming out around Christmas. Anyway, I hope the Big Book of Color Charts helps everyone, and that you all have fun swatching and coloring in some of the designs - I truly enjoyed creating this beast of a book. Much love to the coloring community, and thank you, Claire, for being such an amazing part of it all! xoxox Susan (aka Ruby Charm Colors)

[@ColourwithClaire]

It's a brilliant book and will only get better with the artist edition I'm sure xx

[@katecurrie7499]
