Crayola Signature Blend & Shade Colored Pencils | Unboxing, Review, Swatching, and Blend Test

[@lisawik7234]

I can't believe Pamela got me to buy Crayola! They are not as smooth as Prismacolor ( my fav) but still very pretty colors and why not! Any art supply to help me satisfy my coloring addiction.

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

I am so glad you decided to get them. They blend very nicely. I wish I had the bigger set of these though. Happy Coloring!

[@Adeline9418]

I'm so glad you like the regular Crayola's. Not everyone does. I think they're great.

[@kellybee1935]

I follow many coloring artist but by far you have helped me improve my coloring skills the most. Love my other artists and have learned through their videos as well. Thank you for your helpful videos, they mean a lot to me!

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

This makes me so happy. I love that you love my videos. Thank you for watching.

[@4alicekg]

I've had the 24 set for a while and I absolutely ADORE them! I just recently learned there's a 50 set (I wish they had an even bigger set!!), And I cannot wait to eventually get my hands on them! There's just something so unique and special about the feel of these on paper... Sooo smooth and buttery, almost gel-like like another channel I watched mentioned

[@4alicekg]

Omg 🤣 and I just heard you say gel-like too!!!

[@kendraiacouzze4930]

WOW!!! I had no idea how far Crayola has come. Great video.

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

Oh I know, right? They have an entire Signature line.

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

@@lucykeiko2339 I don’t have the set with 50 colors.

[@angelajclarkson]

Thanks Pamela - that robins egg blue is gorgeous. Yet another set of pencils added to my wishlist LOL.

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

Oh goodness! It really is. How long is your list getting? 🤣

[@angelajclarkson]

@@PamelasPassionforPencils it's pretty long...although I'm slowly chipping away at it LOL

[@patriciagreinersundberg7986]

Heard your channel mentioned by Ann on A Colorful Life video so I came to watch you. Love how informative you are. I do not have these pencils but may get some.

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

Hi Patricia, Oh I love Ann. I have been watching her videos for such a long time, well before I made my channel about 9 months ago. I can sit and listen to her all day. I heard that she mentioned me in her video and she said such sweet things about me. That made my entire day. ❤

[@melissascoloringandmulti-taski]

I want to see the tri-shade pencils demonstrated.

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

Hi Melissa, I don't have the tri-shade pencils. I'm sorry. Let me know if there is anything else you'd like to see.

[@lisawik7234]

Omg! That be great. I use mine for background

[@debbl7311]

I really enjoyed this review, thank you! I have these pencils and I LOVE them!!!!

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

You are so welcome! They seem like great pencils. I will be coloring with them very soon.

[@lisabrodner5060]

Thanks for this great video! I love Crayola colored pencils. Fantastic quality and price too. Looking forward to a future video coloring with this combo.

[@Adeline9418]

Just ordered this set!!!!! Their magenta is wonderful.

[@Stephanie-uu5ro]

I just found your channel after my family got me started coloring with Christmas gifts if coloring books and pencils. I just want to say what a huge help you’ve been to me getting started on this journey. I can see you love what you do, and new art stuff (who doesn’t lol) so I wanted to mention 2 crayola items to try. I’ve seen on Amazon Crayola Signature cream sticks, they are like pastels. I haven’t tried them yet but I would love to see what you can do with them! The other is the Crayola light up tracing board. I have trouble with enough lighting where I color, but I got the light board to help. My coloring page fits right to it and gives a nice back light so I can see what I’m doing. I would liken it to light boards for Diamond Painting.

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

I’m so glad you’re enjoying my videos. Welcome to the wonderful world of all things coloring. I use a white light when coloring. I also have a light box but I use it for tracing my drawings.

[@donnalyon2145]

Great video Pamela. Would love to see you color with them.

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

I will be coloring with them soon. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching.

[@katecurrie7499]

Hi Pamela, these look lovely, lots of pigment to them. However my set of 120 Crayola have arrived today and I'm busy swatching them and sooo impressed with the colours, thank you 💖

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

I am so glad you love them!! The colors in that set are amazing!

[@MartìnGamiño-Choki]

I am so happy you are doing this videos because Crayola is all I ca afford make a lot of videos I"ll watch every single one

Thank you so much I hope you can review the color escapes soon.I love your reviews, super helpful!!!

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

I am not sure I will be reviewing those. I had thought about it, but then someone had mentioned to me that they were going to be discontinuing them. I am going to call Crayola and look further into this to see if it is fact. I will keep you posted.

[@kellybee1935]

My sister bought me my first set of Prisma Premiers for Christmas. I think I have colored every day since them. Well, December 11th I was seriously injured at work so coloring and you are helping me heal. Can’t wait to get back to work so I can get my first hard cover coloring book. Prayer always helps. Adore you!

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

Oh Kelly I am so sorry. I hope you heal up quickly so you can get back to work. Prayers sent your way.

[@kellybee1935]

Thank you honey

Great review!! 👏👏

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

Thank you. ☺️

[@scapegoat3479]

Hi Pamela, have you ever reviewed the bic intensity coloured pencils? Do you think these are similar or better? Thank you.

[@cheriecarr7828]

This was a great video . Love your tips and tutorials and also reviews. I was curious about these pencils. I want more colors so they need to make more. I just purchased the shuttle arts 174 premium pencils and they are amazing. I am a prisma girl all the way but its so fun to try other types too. I'm on a no buy this year but these Crayolas are tempting me because i love the Crayola brand. They're super tips are so dang good!

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

Hi Cherie, You're on a "no buy" for the entire year?? Yikes! 😬 I don't know what I'd do. after watching all these videos being on a "no buy". You must tell me about your 174 set of Shuttle Arts. I have been hearing lots about those. The only thing I have from them is their gel pens which are really great and blend so well. I am going to do some research and see if I need to add these to my collection and review them for everyone. Happy Coloring!

[@cheriecarr7828]

@@PamelasPassionforPencils I know right no buy what a bummer 😳😀. I really like the shuttle arts they are buttery and good lay down. They don’t have many skin tones but I can always use my prismas for skin!

[@debbiearroyo1115]

I have the set of 50 and love them!!

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

Yay! They are wonderful. I need to sit down and color with them so that I can give a full and complete review now. ❤

[@scapegoat3479]

Hi again, have you ever reviewed the prismacolor scholar pencils? Do you think these would be similar?

[@davek12]

I tried these on a whim a couple of weeks ago and really like them. The tin for mine is two layers, and I really don't like the included trays, though. I like a lot of the pencils I've tried. I hadn't drawn or colored much for a very long time and wanted to do more. Seems like a very competitive market right now, though.

[@pattytolliver2651]

I do want to see you color with them, but with the 50 ct. Thank you for sharing.

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

I did some coloring with them last night. I really do need the 50 count.

[@andreaperkins8932]

The colors are so pretty. I might have get these.

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

There is a beautiful selection of colors. I need to check out the 50 set though!

[@catlady256]

How do the Crayola compare with the different Brutfuner??

[@jaimiec2404]

I have been using these pencils for years and I have loved them from day one. I buy mine at Walmart. I have the 50 set. I have other pencils but I like these and prismas best. We all like different things.

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

Yes we all like different things. That's why we have so many different brands of pencils. I love that I can show you all of them here on my channel. I love so many different sets, but Prismacolors will always be my absolute favorites. I have not had a chance to sit down and color with these yet so I really need to get to that! Thanks for watching. Happy Coloring!

@@PamelasPassionforPencils i enjoy your channel! I hope you like the pencils after you play around with them for a while!

[@camillecrichlow8138]

I’m jealous! 🥹 I only discovered these a couple months ago and crayola confirmed that the 50ct is discontinued. I like the crayola ones better than prismacolor but wish it had more colors 😩

[@bostonblackie9503]

Are these pencils the same as Crayola pencils you buy in the yellow box?

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

They aren't. I compared them for you in the video. Were you able to watch to the end where I tested the pencils?

[@bostonblackie9503]

@@PamelasPassionforPencils I actually thought I had watched this video before. I was also wondering, if you know, what is the difference between this set and Castle Art Themed Sets. They are about the same price in Canada. In fact Castle is less expensive!

@@bostonblackie9503 castle art also offers a 120 set that includes the themed sets. I’ve not tested these side by side.

Hi Pamela, 🥰Would love to see a video of you colouring with these pencils please! I have ordered the 50 but they won’t arrive until Thursday. Thank you! 😃

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

Absolute zero is in the regular set, I don't have the 120 and I have that color

[@MixedMediaCraftsbyDiane]

I am impressed! I have not been a fan of the regular Crayola pencils. I do like the Signature Blend and Shade. I would love to see you color with them on different papers. Have you tried the Crayola Color Escapes and how do they compare to these Signature? Thank you for sharing.

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

I will be coloring with them soon. Trying them out on different papers and in different coloring books is a great video idea. I have not tried the Color Escapes and I am not sure that I will. Thanks for watching.

Hi! You are who I've been looking for! After buying books and pencils, pens and markers. High end, to economic end, I have discovered that no matter what coloring aid I use it still looks like a grade school rendition, lol. Would you share a copy of your color grid? It would be so very helpful. Going to start from video 1. Thanks so much for sharing!

Crayola refuses to be discounted. They do have the most variety in colors. Everyone knows Crayola

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

Yes! Crayola is so old school and we all know Crayola. These are wonderful pencils.

[@Samantha-qx9ow]

You forgot to swatch the colour ❝Blue❞ 🙀

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

Yes I did. I noticed this and made note of it at the end of the video. The blues in this set look extremely similar and so I am sure that's why I mistakenly skipped over it. Oops! 😊

[@StopFear]

Some put a lot of undeserved trust in the Crayola as a brand. I am guessing because it’s the brand of the pencil many people used in childhood. But it’s sad that they continue to use its reputation to push bad and at most average products to us.

[@terrisimmers9784]

You have misted a color in your swatching. You only have 23 colors on the sheet.

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

I know. Silly me! I skipped over it because so many of the blues look similar in this set. I noted this in the video if you watched all the way to the end.

[@madelinecruz7590]

Oh, I bought these last year, I did swatched them, but forgot about them, how cool 😎 love the tin they come in ! Always sharpen them too !!! 👍🏼 I just pulled them out, it’s so great when you find pencils/pens sets you forgot about....🥴😂🥴 This was as usual, a great video 👏

Unfortunately, these pencils have very poor reviews. 😕

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

Have you tried them yourself? Where did you see poor reviews? Amazon? I didn't see any. I really like them.

[@lauriesopas]

Great video, but "skin color" is only skin color if you are Caucasian. I suggest the Crayola colors of the world set to color the faces of the actual world. The prismacolor portrait set is good too for diversity in skin tones, but obviously costs more. I'm disappointed in this set for sketching/pencil painting because the blending doesn't layer well at all. I do like the vividness for cartoon/comic illustration.

[@PamelasPassionforPencils]

I have several videos using the Crayola Colors of the World and even have three sets away in my last giveaway 😀
