My wife bought me a small all in one set from an art store 2 years before covid... it just sat there..... once the wave started, I opened it up and went to town... that little box meant for teens got me going, I now have a small basement studio

THAT was quite the bundle you just unboxed! I homeschooled my four kids and we did LOTS of art projects for all different subjects - I for SURE would have looked into this...the price here in the US seems incredible for what you get, considering the quality. I must say - how "cool" Meeden continues to send you things (for free!) to review - how exciting to get a package like this! This is a testament to you and your loyal followers who value your opinion - I suspect you are probably very lucrative to Meeden...I bet they have had many sales to people using your discount code! A mutually beneficial arrangement!❤

I cannot lie… I love free stuff. But I try to be honest in my reviews. Meeden is not the best of the best in the world, but they do offer good quality at really good prices. You home schooled? You must be patient!
@tracylamarca57511 ай бұрын
I have no doubt you are very honest! You always point out the good AND the maybe not quite up to par! That probably also helps Meeden to refine their products! Yes on the homeschooling - 4 kids! Ummm...sure, I was very patient!😁🤣(No need to check with my kids HAHAHAHA! Let's just leave it at that! 😃🤗)@@LizChadertonArt

I have that exact French Easel and paid nearly $200.00 for that alone and it was on sale (Blicks). That is an awesome deal, especially in the US. I also recently got a set of their brushes to take me over the free shipping limit. I love them. The tips are so sharp! I'm really liking them as an art supply company. I haven't used any of their paints, but their paper, brushes and ceramic palettes are very good. I want to get this for my granddaughter when she's a bit older. I already have her painting with real acrylic paints and watercolor. She's actually very good at it. I bought a silicone mat that fits over my kitchen dinette table and she has an art apron. No messes. In the summer we paint outside. She's five. Lol. Budding artist.

I have a French easel but I think I like this one better. It seems more versatile than mine. More compartments. Nice color wheel. A variety of paints…. etc! Boy, this kit contains a LOT! Nice presentation. 🍃🌸🍃 INCREDIBLE PRICE! WOW! I figured it would be around $500.

This is a great set! It's nice to see one with a bit of everything in it, too. As for the oil paints, my dad gave me my very first set of oils when I was 7! He showed me how to paint with them because they are thicker and a bit sticky to use to begin with, how to clean up (safely!), and then left me to play with it. I mostly use oils to make monoprints but it'd be nice to try painting with them again soon.

What a fantastic set and what a wonderful presentation! I was shocked to hear someone would give oil paints and acrylics to a 6 year old .. besides the mess, they are not the safest ones, but it of course depends on a child. I wouldn't though. Medeen would totally up their game if asked you to compile a short course how to use all this stuff! I 've been in and out of making art for years and my head is spinning, looking at all these wonderful things! Imagine the impact on a person, who is just starting! Lovely video, as always! 🍀

Whoa 🤯 that’s a huge painting kit! Definitely sounds like a great deal for the price with all of those mediums of art supplies including a French Easel. I would love 💕 to have found it when I was beginning my art journey years ago too. Thanks for sharing this wonderful information & review with us.

That's such a neat set! Do you know if the oil paints are regular oil paints, or water mixable oils? Water mixable feels like it would fit best with the other paints in the set. Either way, I find giving this to a 6 year old could be asking for a headache!
