I Tried OVERLY SPONSORED Art Stuff...but NOT Sponsored | PART 1
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 фев 2022
- Today I decided to test overly sponsored art stuff..this is part 1 so if you enjoy it I'll be sure to do more! I keep getting recommended Kiwi Co boxes from different creators and since I've never worked with them or spoken with them before..I figured I would subscribe and buy one for myself and see if it's actually as good as other creators say they are... Kiwi Co boxes are arts and craft boxes filled with different creative products for different ages. I purchased the "Maker Crate" -
"Maker Crate is a monthly craft box dedicated to the discovery of new art and design tools to help turn artistic visions into design realities."
Pre-order my brushes: artisticbearco.com
The box: www.kiwico.com

That's nice!
Aww
I subscribed to Kiwi Crate for me, an adult, for a while. One thing I liked was the sheer variety of projects. Everything from printing fabric to making soap to making mini lanterns. Even though I COULD buy the supplies for each project every month, I wouldn’t try most things on my own, and you get just the right amount to try out a new thing. If you want to continue it, then you know you like it already. Or if you’re like ehhh not for me, you aren’t stuck with a bunch of supplies you’ll never use
Oh, this is so much fun. I’m on the edge of my seat
Hiiiiii love ur vids
Maybe you should give this ago Rea. It's on my bucket list
Rae are you going to try a kiwi box too?
Omg hi Rae I love ur vids
My husband gifted me the makers crates for my birthday. So far I have done the lettering cup and a lamp made from wire, they had everything in the box and were very good quality. I think the Makers crate is good for someone that wants to do crafts but doesn't know what they want to try. I learned I don't like working with wire! 😂🤣😂
The best handlettering tip I ever heard was not to be afraid to lift your marker! It's not cursive! You can lift your marker as often as you like. I think of handlettering in strokes rather than letters.
Have to agree! Handlettering is more drawing than writing.
TO USE STENCILS:
1.) Use micron end to trace the entire stencil
1.5) Remove stencil
2.) Color it in
3.) Enjoy
However, I do believe this particular stencil was designed to help with letter placement.
Ok
I have seen sponsorships for this of a million times, this video is the first one that actually made me want to buy it. You did an amazing job. Absolutely love all the flora on the second one.
Three years of Japanese in high school plus some occasional studying when I find the time as an adult here - Japanese symbols are very simple. It's (with a couple exceptions) always either a vowel by itself or a consonant + vowel combo and the vowels all have just one pronunciation. A [ah]; I [ee]; U [oo]; E [eh] & O [oh].
So the word is pronounced "oo-kee-yoh"
Stencil syggestion: use fine tip to trace the stencil then fill in afterwards with brush tip. Much cleaner and quicker. Also less likely to move the stencil.
I have two kids, 6& 7, and having been getting the kiwi crate for over a year now. They love them. They look forward to getting them in the mail and it's one of the few things they will just set still for. There is any where from 1-3 projects per box and my kids play with them for days after making them. Plus they come with a book that has a story to go with the project as well as STEM info and other at home activities. Our last one had a simple fruit dip recipe that they could make on their own and they LOVED it. Also for other parents on the fence, both of my kids are high energy, demolition crew set of girls and these kits hold their interest.
I think the stencil is an assist for lining up your letters. Love your videos.
I haven't tried this line of Kiwico, but my son was subscribed to another line from them for a year and we really enjoyed doing them.
They always included everything you need, except for maybe a pair of scissors and the instructions were always extremely clear. Usually they also had an instructional video. The material included was of a good quality.
They usually also included some extra's which is nice if you do something for the first time and might mess it up!
The project in the box was always very reasonable compared to the price, especially taken into account that I don’t live in the US and it included international shipping. It was always fun and kept us occupied for like an hour, after which we could play with the project. It always was something that held up extremely well.
As said, I don’t live in the US and shipping usually took a bit longer, but never too long. Stuff always arrived undamaged.
In short, I highly recommend these boxes.
Chloe messing things up is the most relatable thing & I love that she doesn't cut that out to remind us that nobody is perfect & we're all just human beings & make mistakes 💜💜
Ps that dog patting the water to see if it's dry is the cutest thing😍
Can I just say, your hair is adorable today chloe 😊
Chloe's videos, they are on an another level
To be completely honest, you are much better at hand lettering as a beginner than I was when I started. No matter what you think, yours does look pretty good.
I've gotten the Maker Crate on and off for a couple years now, and they can be real hit or miss, but you always get some new tool or supply that you can reuse, which is nice. And I like combining different boxes into a single larger project when I can't think of what to do with the project as-is. My one complaint though is that they give you a paper inspiration book and make you watch videos for explanations of the tools and project, which can get a bit frustrating. I'd much rather have it the other way around. But the videos are very helpful, the woman narrating them has the most soothing voice ever, and, it does answer all the questions you're likely to have- including for example, answers to the question of how to wash the travel mugs. I know that when you're filming a video, you can't always stop and watch a 10-minute instructional video. But for anyone considering this box, I just want to make it clear that you're not just given a bunch of stuff and expected to figure it out on your own.
I should've done the Maker crate for my kids. We've done the doodle and tinker before. While they are fun, we ended up with pieces all over the house and the last 3 doodle boxes haven't even been opened. If I renew, I'll get this one, then at least I can do it if they don't 😅
Chloe attempting Hand Lettering and writing beautifully: "Ewh, that's awful"
Me attempting to write a simple note and ending up pooping on a piece of paper: "Wooow that came out good!"
I honestly need to sort out my brain :D
Anyway, the "mindset is everything" cup is honestly wonderful!!
I still need to finish the video I'll be back on the comment section in a few seconds
I just stopped the video to see if anyone thought like I did and you put it perfectly.
nothing like having a bad day until chloe posts
The word Ukiyo is pronounced oo-kee- soft y sound with oh. So kind of oo-kee-oh.
Awesome work, I think I tend to over work things with my art as well. Simple but purposeful is very difficult 😂
I was going to leave a pronunciation tip, but yours is really good.
I was taught Japanese at school, but I thought the "o" pronunciation was more like that in "hot" than "oh"? I could be wrong or misinterpreting your comment tho
@Charlie Thompson
A Japanese “o” sound is like Spanish, you have the “pure” vowels, so a is “aw,” i is “ee,” u is “oo,” e is “ehh,” o is “oh.”
I hope this helps!
I love how those turned out! Also I am here for your transitional phase! Art is all about experimenting and growing so do your thing!
My great grandson Loves these Kiwi crates since he was 4 years old and I started him from the 5-8 yo category and he just absorbed it all. Every year I go up one level and the beginning of each month he starts looking for his special crate. Best thing ever for children to learn from simple instructions and fabricate things without using a computer… just brains and everyday items. Amazing!
I’ve watched quite a few of your videos and I really enjoy them! You’re a wonderful artist with a bubbly personality and a wicked sense of humour.
Can I just say one thing - the wild zooming in and out and back and forth… I know it’s all the rage with youtubers now, but I enjoyed your “old” way of cutting videos a lot more. I know you’re free to do however you wish and I’m not saying do it differently, but - does anyone have a similar problem? I really do get seasick. But then again, I’m a whimp.
Anyways, you’re doing an awesome job here. So thank you.
Am I the only one thinking I'd DEFINITELY not have gone the inspirational route and would have gone with like "duck" you or something
I've gotten their Maker Crate in the past, now my daughter and I each get the Doodle Crates. We get to art and craft together! I really enjoy their crates.
This box was great and I loved what you did. I think the stencil is actually a guide for if you want to write a word in a different shape like a curve. I’ve had something similar in a calligraphy set before. 💜
I think that stencil is actually a guide to do different text effects such as “bend” or “fisheye” like in Photoshop. I totally could be wrong though
this is also entirely what I was thinking
Yep, that's what it is meant for. Of course, it CAN be used like a regular stencil if you want to use it that way. But the instruction video shows how to use it to plan your letter design/layout and put the letters on an arc or other formations
I love Kiwi Co. My son gets the Koala crate, which comes with 3 activities, and he loves it! He is so excited every month.
I was tempted to get them for my autistic toddler what sort of things are in them?
@@nephfey2605 I'm sorry I never saw you commented on this. It depends on the crate really. Each month has a theme. The Koala crate is appropriate for kids ages 3 to 5. One crate was night time. So we got a slow in the dark sock lightning bug stuffed animal, a toilet paper roll mushroom, and one other activity. It literally comes with everything you need to do the project. If you go to their site it will give you a ton of info about each crate option.
I grew up with the tinker crates when I was younger. No one really knew about them then. They were absolutely amazing! Such a wonderful diverse set of kits, my favorite was a spin art kit where you build your own motor. Would get them for my own kids (if I had any)
Fun! I love the pink mug. I've always wondered about these boxes but never bothered to order one. Thanks, Chloe, for diving into it.
I think you can use the stencil to make guides to do curved lettering or other shapes to fill your letters in to! Also how are you so good at hand lettering?! I always blamed how Crap my brush lettering is on being a leftie but now I think I’m just terrible at it even though I try really hard not to be 🤣
The clear plastic is also a template for the paper shape, you could make one for every day of the week!
I want that backdrop...
Also, this video series is going to be interesting to watch! After watching you and Waffles and Rae and Jazza, I've been keeping an eye out on the art subscription boxes (The only one I have so far is from Jazza's Spectrum Noir) and I have been itching to try some of these monthly subscriptions and see which ones are worth it.
I love subscription boxes. The only RUclips one I've gotten was Nerdecrafter, and it was amazing. Except, it was a $150 single sculpture...but I mean, I could make more.
I love the style of art in the "ukiyo" paper. Water color is so pretty and I also love when they are slightly outside the lines with markers.
I also love the clouds on your paper. It's so pretty 😄
Usually these box-o-the-month things seem like a waste to me, but this one actually looked worthwhile for the price. Be interested to see what else they send your way and hope this wasn't an anomaly. Thanks, fun vid. Oops, edit to add the non-pink one was my fave. Longer phrases look better vertically maybe?
I believe the stencil is not for making rainbows but rather to use it as a guidelines if u wanna write your text in arch or that triangular shape and make each letter different size :D
I’ve had some really great results with the water based markers scribbled onto the acetate sheet, by wiping the acetate clean and then repeating it to create layers. I just made sure each layer was dry before applying the next one, so I didn’t just make mud with the colours. Thanks for the video.💐
I have done the paper pulp, terrazzo, and the one you did. I love it. I've been slowly working on the punch needle pillow one.
Wow! I love your creativity. It inspires me to do so. Also it is a perfect example of what trusting the proccess looks like😍💜.
My kids have been doing the kids Kiwi kits for years. They are always entertaining and my kids still have some of the products of the kits that they made a long time ago. I definitely recommend them
Your perfect imperfections and brave showing of them are one of the things I just absolutely adore about your videos. Eg. "I don't know how to do this well, but I'm going to give it a go". Eg. "Look at my new studio. It's lovely and wonderful"... A few months later... "Ok, that studio sucked. Look at my new studio! It's lovely and wonderful". I just freaking love it all!
I just love it when you post. You post Thursday and Sandi Hester posts Fridays. My two favorites!
I bought a subscription for my niece (8) and nephew (6) for Christmas and they have LOVED them so far. I think it's a great product. It almost makes me want one for me. What a great way to try new things without needing to figure out what supplies are needed and source them yourself.
The mugs are so cute! I love the ukiyo one!
Hi Chloe! Love your videos they always makes me happy and gets me in a positive mood . I loved both mugs but the pink is my favorite 🤩 . Please let us know when ever you have more items on your store to buy
I love the 1st multi coloured one the best, well done. You could use the stencil to make a pencil line so you can have a line to do some curved lettering maybe.
Your first pink attempt on the right side of the paper looked just like pink clouds, beautiful x
I like the rainbow marker one! I just did a whole video on my channel about stencils!
I would definitely recommend using the smaller bullet tip when doing stencils and getting an outline of the stencil then going back and coloring. :)
I’ve actually never seen kiwi co! That’s so interesting. I make art content, follow art content, and am blissfully unaware apparently! 🤣
Hahahaha you -sometimes- try art boxes. Love it.
I see it advertised on a lot of tech/science/education channels I follow for the childrens’ enginering/science/construction boxes.
@@natford8271 Aaah, that makes sense! As an engineer and art lover, I so approve! I'll have to check them out! 😀
@@craftycrandall lifelong yarncrafter, retired scientist and software engineer here. A yarncraft pattern is almost indistinguishable from a computer program!
This seems like such a lovely, relaxing kit! Definitely appreciate the unsponsored review :>
The sheets with the practice strokes actually looks very very handy!!! Muscle memory training!
The highlight of my day
I love these! Even your lettering looks great 👍 like you said in the video, everyone's handlettering looks different. I think that bit a flair is so special. I've been getting into the more simple illustrations as well. For me, it's hard to figure out where to stop adding to it. I just want to keep adding detail after detail, and texture, love texture
I love your hair like this!! Super cute!! ❤️
Looks like you had lots of fun with it.
Top tip for brush lettering, try not to think of it as writing but as individual sections/brush strokes even within a single letter you might want to lift your pen.
That’s actually a really good value. I like that it’s a good blend of arts and crafts.
Ohhh I like this concept. I feel like it’s hard to find honest reviews sometimes!!
Oh my gosh, this maker crate craft looks fantastic! I hope I get one of these soon. I've done a few before including the watercolor clock, engraved mirror and paper mache, and I think they're all fantastic little kits! You did such a beautiful job 😊
I subscribed to the Kiwi Crate (I think that’s the one) for my toddler grandsons and they love it. Good variety of activities, age-appropriate, nice quality. Now I want to get this makers crate for my daughter and me - looks like low-stress fun!
I too really like the design you did on the pink one
38 seconds? yes! Please keep up the amazing content, Chloe!!
I love when you do this type of thing.
They turned out great! I can’t write nicely to save my life. Your letters were beautiful. Now I really want to try the creator box!
I love makercrate! While it might take time for things to ship internationally, the project are always fun and really diverse!I also like that the material is reusable so if you like that specefic craft you can do more without have to go to the store.
I love those mugs! I won't be able to get the artbox, but I'm going to see how I can recreate the process of this on paper with my 6 yr old twins!
Fun stuff! I enjoy palleting on smooth plastic with waterbased markers.
I love both designs so much!
1:12 🤣🤣🤣 already loving this video lol
Love your videos Chloe thanks for the honest reviews! I've been seeing SO many videos sponsored by kiwi co too so I'm curious!
Yes!!!! Day made because you uploaded! I hope you have a wonderful day! Thank you for all your hard work.
Lol @ the stencil 😂
I love your innocence or idk if that’s the right word lol it’s so cute!! I love lettering.. the curved lines are for lettering patterns…
I srsly enjoyed this video!!
My favorite is the mindset is everything mug
Great video, the project looks like fun! but near the end I freaked out cause I could only hear you on one side of my headphones. I freaked out thinking I had broken another new set 😂 tested it on some music and it's fine, but oh boy XD
I love your handlettering =( im jealous! lol you write beautifully! was fun to watch thats for sure.
I’ve always asked myself if these are actually worth it, thanks Chloe!
Thank you for trying these kits! It really helps me if I’m thinking of trying one.
Ooooohhh I see those Karin pens in the background
My niece got the doodle crate for awhile and I would have had fun with it too - she got these cool lanterns to make (like decorate and then fold the paper into the right form) to put on twinkle lights and I traced one to make a template for myself, lol. I might try maker crate sometime. Somehow I hadn't realized they had one directed at including adults.
I like the box, but I love your pigtails even more! You look so cute!
this is my favorite video of yours so far! I didn't know that kiwico had adult boxes
Omg those are both super cute! And I think that’s the first overly sponsored product that I’ve seen that actually does what it advertises lol
She posted an hour ago! So exited to watch😀😀. If your reading this chloe, i absolutaly love your channel and watching you makes my day😊❤️
Both of those mugs are pretty. I love the colors and florals.
Ahh I always look forward to when you upload!
Stencil tip! - You only draw around the edge of the stencil while it's on the page, you don't try and colour it in while holding. With these pens, they have the small nib, so you could draw around the stencil with the right colour, remove the stencil, then colour it in. It means you can colour more slowly, be more precise, and you don't have to worry about accidently moving the stencil out of place
Thanks for showing this box. We’ve done the tinker boxes for our son and they are fantastic.
Both of these were so pretty! You did a great job🤩
I get the science ones and I think it's pretty well thought out. It's got everything it takes, and they're a lot of fun.
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS ALOT U INSPIRE ME SO MUCH TY
i've been using kiwi co crates since i was 7 and they only had the tinker crates, i've been using them so long that i did EVERY SINGLE ONE in the tinker crates and had to move to eureka crate about a year ago and i loved both sets and still do the monthly crates :)
As soon as you pronounced kiwico I got NerdECrafter flashbacks for some reason. A lot of hers and other creators' vids are regularly sponsored by them, in fact the only times I have heard about this brand are when their sponsorships are mentioned, so all good things. Great initiative to unbiasedly review them ❤️❤️
My parents like to get my boys the koala crate as presents and my boys love it. They get so excited each month when it comes in the mail.
I love her accent and voice sm! The way she talks ❤️❤️
7 months late, but I honestly love both of the mugs! If I absolutely had to choose, I would have to choose the Ukiyo mug, I love all the little designs you've added to it :)
Handlettering tip: space out your letters way more than you think is enough, like how when you're reading aloud or delivering a speech you're advised to speak way slower than you think is reasonable. Even massively overspaced it looks cool, whereas underspaced only looks good in sans serif fonts, not cursive.
17:52 It's pronounced like "oo-key-yoh" just like it says on the pin, where you sound out the short u sound rather than read it like a letter u. Japanese is quite easy to pronounce since you just sound out every single letter.
I have 2 of those mugs where you can insert whatever you want to personalize, I'd just be very careful about the edge of the paper nearest the rim coz one of mine leaked water through that side ruining my design 😥
Ohhhh, this is fun. Watching on the edge of my seat.
Thank you for testing it! I remember checking the website out back when they sponsored Jackie, but the comment and ratings had lots of trolls in them so I didn't trust them :/
Will definitely give Kiwico a try!
The final cups looked amazing! I love the background and details of the last one!
calligraphy is so deceptively hard, these turned out so cute!!
Ukiyo is the Japanese term used to describe the urban lifestyle and culture, especially the pleasure-seeking aspects,...Ukiyo culture developed in Yoshiwara, the licensed red-light district of Edo (modern-day Tokyo), From the Wiki
So its kind of like writing "Swinger" on your water mug.
😄💙
Really love this hairstyle! Oh, and I love ur videos too!
