[@joaoalbertodosanjosgomes1536]

I 👍 to eat gelatos now i will learn to use them from Faber-Castell.

[@bethmiller4266]

Gelatos are just soooo delicious ❤❤

[@Portia620]

These look so much like watercolors but so much more fun!

[@janetcarrier313]

Thanx Rita...this was really helpful ... Gelatos have been a mystery to me, but the more I learn, the more I enjoy using them!

[@joaoalbertodosanjosgomes1536]

I 👍 very much the thin boxes or cases. Staedtler has nice ones too.

I’ve had these for years and never understood how to use them until NOW! 🥳 Thank you for sharing this! Woot woot! Now I have so many ideas!

[@monicacabreradefranke4189]

Thank you. I was just wondering where and how to use them. I think I'll be getting some now.

Can you go over these with color pencils if you blend the gelatos dry?

[@tanyafermin9313]

Thanks for this, now they aren’t so scary!

[@melissa61272]

Great! I want to try out dry for backgrounds. 🎨🖌

So beautiful! Love that you are a cruelty free company - is this a vegan product too?💚🕊️

Thank you so much for your video. It was informative & easy to follow. I recently bought 2 sets of Faber-Castell Gelatos, the Pastels and the Iridescent II sets. I love the colors! I have a quick question.... I noticed FB Gelatos sets come with a brush & 2 sponges, one very soft & one hard sponge. I don't care for the really soft one, but I do love the harder sponge. The only problem is I can't find out where to buy these harder ones. I see loads of offers for the soft sponges, in Amazon & elsewhere. But none of the hard sponges. Would you happen to know where I can buy these? Thanks. :)

Do you prefer to use hot press or cold press paper?

[@aminutewithbonblouzorba6350]

Can you use geletos for a background and paint on top of them?

[@joaoalbertodosanjosgomes1536]

On which kind of papers we can use these gelatos? We can eat them too? We ❤ Faber-Castell.

[@colleendeloach6484]

I wish I knew too

[@mirandamccaslin7406]

If you have double-sided coloring books can you use these? Will it affect other side of the page? I wanna use these for my Joanna Basford books. I hate that they are double-sided.

[@joaoalbertodosanjosgomes1536]

The movie Frozen was made with gelatos?

[@ImaniTolliver]

Beautiful! I love that you are a cruelty free company! Are they a vegan product?

[@fabercastellusa]

Thank you! All art products are free of animal products, except for our Natural Beeswax crayons, by-products or derivatives; nor are they tested on animals.

@@fabercastellusa Beautiful! Thank you so much! 🐰🩵🕊️

[@Portia620]

This can be used on cloth, paper, wood, and ceramics I think they said?

[@fabercastellusa]

Anitra - Faber-Castell Gelatos can be used on any porous surface. They are great for adding color and sheen to paper, canvas, chipboard, wood, fabric, ribbon journal boards and many other surfaces. They probably would not work very well on ceramic. Gelatos can be used on fabric, but we recommend using a sealant that is suitable for the surface which you are working on. When used on fabric or canvas Gelatos will be permanent in that they will stain the material. It is advised to perform a test on a swatch before applying to any finished work. We do not recommend laundering any items to which Gelatos have been applied. As different brands and mediums of art materials are formulated in different ways using different ingredients that may interact in a negative way, we always recommend testing the materials together before starting work to ensure you will achieve your desired result.

How do you use this for background that has a drawing on it?

[@miwiarts]

"It's not this." *Shows image of ice cream.* Me: Aw...:c

[@joaoalbertodosanjosgomes1536]

I hate dual tips products.

[@miklosnemeth8566]

It's really sad that in the meantime Faber-Castell stopped making gelatos. It is 2024 Xmas season and no gelatos are available for many long months. Instead of gelatos we are forced to buy cheap Chinese knock-off products. Shame on Faber-Castell 😒
