This is very clever. I love how personalized it is to your own art practice.

Thank you so much!

I love the alcohol and yogurt setup as a brush holder / water combo. I'm doing it. Thanks! 💕

[@kimberlyhyltonart]

I'm so happy you found this little tip useful! I thought it worked great and if you want you can always paint the containers with acrylic paint so they look like a set.

Hi from Virginia! You’re very welcome!

[@j.g.9271]

Love it. I got the thumb box plein air, and cut a place matt to fit over the bottom. I like your ribbon attachment . Love the idea of the brush holder

[@kimberlyhyltonart]

Aw your voice.... reminds me and made me miss home. Recently on a call with a signing I heard a loud noise in the background as she sat on the porch in the night air. I asked, "My god sissy, what is that loud whistle and why don't you send concerned about it?" She replied with, "honey, get a room ready!!!! Bubba been in the big city too long. He's done forgot what a cricket sounds like!" We laughed so hard. Then I find your channel. Yep, time to head home.

[@kimberlyhyltonart]

Awwh, thank you so much! Your comment touched my heart. I'm from the mountains of Eastern Kentucky, but I am in the mountains of Virginia now. I know what it's like to be away from home. I'm not that far away, but my family is there. I have the line, from a old song that plays in my head when I'm washing dishes. ....the sun shines bright in my old Kentucky home, in my old Kentucky home far away. lol. Welcome to my channel. I hope you will stay!

[@j.g.9271]

That is so beautiful.

[@kimberlyhyltonart]

Thank you so much!🙂

Maybe you could slice a pool noodle in half and rig around your plastic box to make sure it would float if it fell into the water. I like your ideas, especially the magnetic strips to hold the paint tin, the water and brush containers, and making a brush into a travel brush.

[@kimberlyhyltonart]

That is a wonderful idea! Thank you for the tip about using the pool noodle! Thank you!

[@ranjanachand9306]

Lord of great ideas. Thanks

[@kimberlyhyltonart]

Thank you so much! 🥰

Love how u clip the recycled kitchen yogurt holders for brushes 😂 👏 👏

[@kimberlyhyltonart]

Thank you! ❤️ I like trying to find a way to recycle and repurpose things. 🙂

I’m so glad I found your channel. I got a Guerrilla box at an estate sale , practically free. It’s a bigger size than yours. I was trying to figure out how to attach my Kilamanjaro sketchbook just like yours! For water, I got 2 plastic clear buckets in the Xmas aisle at the Dollar Tree, 2/1.25. I hang them on the front . Your video was very helpful. Off to watch some more of yours!

[@kimberlyhyltonart]

That’s wonderful! I’m so happy you found this helpful! ❤

I'm not quite ready to do plein air yet. I have been thinking about it.(prob why i got recommended your video) wow you are damned handy. thanks. love it.

[@kimberlyhyltonart]

I'm glad you found my channel! I would encourage you to get a small painting kit together and try a little plein air sketching. Painting from nature is the best teacher. I love my plein air sketches more than the paintings that I do in my studio, and would never sell one. Even though I take more time on my studio paintings and they are way more detailed. I like the fresh and loose sketches that I get by painting quickly outdoors.

[@williamruiz5928]

I love your metal cup. For wash brushes..where can I get that?

[@kimberlyhyltonart]

@williamruiz5928 Thank you for watching and commenting on my video! Here is a link to a Collapsible Shot Glass like I am using in this video. amzn.to/3NuoAHh

[@kimberlyhyltonart]

Thanks for the suggestion. 🙂I edited this video to add some links to make things easier to find. Let me know if I left something out that you are interested in and I will try to find a link for you.

[@carolgehman6036]
