- My friend Peggy Wong sent me a prototype watercolour box that she made recently. It's a cute and compact tin box with 3D printed palettes. She says she's still refining it and has no plans for selling yet.

Hi, Teoh. I just received my palettes from Peggy. I ordered two. They are insanely cute! Would you please suggest some colors for each of my palettes, please? I have a bunch of different brands of paint so brands or pigment numbers would be fine, pretty please!
This kit is sooo cute!definitely want one!

Thanks for showing us that really nicely made palette! I love the idea of the interchangeable inserts, particularly when one is not using separate pans. Your friend is a very smart person to have thought of this palette.
The most interesting item here is the little snap on mixing area. If it were to fit a standard tin lip (eg, an altoids type box) then she might have a market for all those DIYers who have already got their mini palettes but would like more mixing space. Thank you for the video.
how cute! To make my own pocket palette I bought an inexpansive little eyeshadow palette, emptied out the little wells and filled those with paint. I attach it to my sketchbook using a clip. i find it very compact, it's flat and it fits in my pocket!
Wonderful idea Francesca, may I use it Please?
Francesca Galanti: I do that also, and I spray paint the outside of the clear lid white, so I have a mixing area. Dollar stores are a great place to find awesome eyeshadow palettes to convert.
Judy-Ann Ford Go ahead. Ideas are free.
OMG that is amazing!!! I've recently made my own travel water color kit with an Altoids tin and I used the pop out tray from a pack of gum to put the colors in and I have a small piece of sponge to clean my brush
Looks like a great little travel palette! Please do let us know when she decides to sell them! Thanks for another great demo!
There is ways to remove those details in your 3d printing. The ones I know is you can spray them with a plastic spray on it to coat it over the grooves and acetone vaporing for the more experiences to polish the clean. I was just thinking about this yesterday of wishing I had a 3d printer and make my own watercoloring container XD
It's brilliant! She should definitely make plans to sell it!
Hey! Love this! So small and compact.
What a great little tin!! As a side note for anyone making their own tins or have tins where the mixing area has stained, using white butcher block block paper, shiny side up works quite well. It can be cut to size of your tin and can be attached with glue dots or double backed tape. It can be easily wiped off or replaced after use. Hope that helps for anyone making their own tins! Thanks for the videos, always learning something new! 😃
Rainedance1010 I wonder if putting yupo paper in the lid would make a good surface for mixing??
All the watercolor boxes are cute :0!!!
It's really small and nice, I'd also be interested in buying one if it ever was available for sale :)
Eve Bolt - Bolt's Vault I was thinking the same:-)
Great minds think alike..? ;)
Eve Bolt - Bolt's Vault, we are thousands of great minds around the globe and we all want more watercolor palettes , don't we? :- D
Haha, yes we do! :D
a great mind would make your own.
Very clever creation!
It's so cute! And magnet tip for keeping the tin on the paper is very handy!
your videos are always so fun to watch!
+Annie Jo Thanks 😁
That IS cute!! I don't go out to paint, but maybe if I made myself a convenient mini and temporary palette I'll be more likely to paint out in the real world.
Love the background music!!! All I need now is a 3-D printer. I made one from an Altoids container and water bottle caps with magnets on the back but never used it. My Winsor-Newton seems to work just fine. Great channel!
So cute! And a great idea :D Hope your friend has good success with it!
Update: She will be selling these in September! Can't wait!
+Leo Meyer Thanks for the update
Leo Meyer it's September now
More info can be found at instagram.com/theminipalette/
LOVE LOVE your style of painting....
Interested in one too! Thank you for the review!
How cute !
Yep, I want one!!!
It's a very clever project. With a higher resolution printer she could even make half pans and get rid of those lines.
It's really adorable!
Wow, it is amazing what 3D printers can do, I can hardly wait till they are cheap like regular printers. I have small palettes. They are fun making. I have not used them yet. Bigger palettes have worked well for my needs thus far, but I have small pallets for when they are required.
Awesome little paint sets! LOVE this idea.. thanks for sharing... (now.. to figure out how to make my own without a 3D printer ... :D )
Super cute, very practical. Love it! :)
That's very cool!
The 9 cell palette fits in the top while you paint. It gives you more option.
Let us know as soon as it's available! Adorable and very practical!
That's such a cute set and a great idea to 3D-print it! :-)
Nifty little palette, thanks for sharing.
Such a cute little palette =)
I want one of this
so cute!!
So cool...please do another video once it's for sale.
cute...I use an altoids tin , with an empty gum container for my paint tabs
You can diminish those grooves by using acetone vapor smooting technique. You can search it on RUclips.
Thanks :-)
Literally the cutest collection of tiny palettes ever. They are so expensive in London. How much do they cost in Singapore?
This one made by my friend is not for sale so there's no price. Check out the video below for eBay links to cheap watercolour boxes
ruclips.net/video/kYRugLhgq0Y/видео.html
I believe there is a smoother injected 3D-printing method - although very expensive. I've been thinking about making one, however the availability of metal boxes with integrated water containers like Schmincke's 9 half-pan portable box set answers my need.
if you 3D print this in abs, you can use an acetone vapor to smooth the piece out.
Brilliant!
Just subscribed! Your channel is amazing, just what I was looking for!
Thanks :-)
I made my own case from a cigarette case. Didnt expect it to fit 12 full pans. But i really want that small case 😲
Brush soap removes the staining
She is selling them now ! Link to the Instagram page :

Hi jenny!
I don't see how to ask her for one... Could you explain, plz?
Etzzou, I saw on her personal IG that production will begin in September. I didn't read well a few hours ago, sorry. (It's on a photo dated July 18th)
The Pocket palette has been improved with bigger enamel pans and some kind of coating to prevent any rust.
Awww 😍😍😍😍
Cute!!!!!! And nice for traveling?
Depends on how long your trip is, and how big your sketchbook is. This box doesn't hold much paint.
I need this in my life
Since when did the 3 primary colors become 6 primary colors?
Great
I wonder if a sectioned pillbox would work? I'll have to go on Amazon and see what they have. :)
It works but there's no mixing area. I've a friend who uses that and mixes the colour on paper.
You can easily clean by dipping them in water and Clorox
Teoh, Could you ask Peggy if she will share her file?
Do you ever use light pad (box or whatever)? Can you make revies for a few of them, for like Huion, Parblo etc. ?
I've not used those before. Perhaps in the future, I'll review them.
Oh, there's a review on my blog by another artists who uses a Huion light box. Check it out at www.parkablogs.com/content/review-huion-a3-led-light-pad-artists
Really clever! Congratulate your friend. Hope you had a good time in Vietnam even though it wasn't as good as Hanoi. Have you been to Vientiane or Phnom Penh.
I've not been to those places you mentioned.
need one now or yesterday, when can I have one? thanks tfs
I hope that at some Point she will consider selling them. So handy and cute :)
WoW! You are a great artist! Which 6 colors do you use here? Magic you
The ones in this set www.amazon.sg/Daniel-285610005-Essentials-Introductory-Watercolor/dp/B00WT5VRF6/
Thank you!!
Is Peggy still selling these mini palettes
i just like the tin
nice.
ty for the video. What was the name of the WN box? i couldn't quite catch what you said. ty. :)
+Katherine Sullivan It's a Bijou box. Some places call it the Whiskey Painter box.
thank you!
the paints you used were they temparas or acrilic?
They are watercolour
Your friends palette is cute! What is the name of the W&N box?
+David Flanagan It's a Bijou box, or sometimes called a Whiskey Painter box.
A bit off topic but can anyone tell me the difference between chinese white and titaniun white?
+Lethy Guaimare You can check this out www.artistsnetwork.com/medium/watercolor/when-a-white-is-a-white
I don't know why I want to buy this mini-palette. I have the Van Gogh travel set (the older one with the sponge in it), a Koi sketch set, a Winsor & Newton Artist field box watercolor set, and now a Siennelier set. I know I've also got a bijox box somewhere. I don't need another small set! Why do I have so many little cute sets? That's why, they're so cute and eeeny and tiny. Grr.
I also discovered that I have another unopened Van Gogh travel set (with the sponge) and a Cotman pan watercolor set (with 14 colors.) I should sell those on the internet.....
where did you buy your daniel smith watercolour? i've been looking everywhere for an online shop in malaysia that sells it, but can't seem to find one ( ; _ ; )
Here in Singapore, it's sold by Arters Singapore and Straits Commercial art store.

Teoh Yi Chie thank you! 💞
i'm not very experienced with watercolour yet as i only bought my first equipment 2 days ago, where i bought synthetic brushes. so my question is: do you know if the animals whose hair is used for making brushes are usually killed and if so do you know a person/brand that makes natural hair brushes using hair for which no creature was killed or seriously harmed?
You can check out the Escoda Versatil brushes which are quite good when compared to natural hair brushes.
www.parkablogs.com/content/review-escoda-versatil-watercolour-brush
i thank you for this recommendation - and your existence overall (be it existent or not)
I've had great success with Princeton's watercolor synthetic brushes. They even had a fake squirrel hair brush, that's a bit springer than real squirrel, but it still holds water great. It's called the Neptune line. You can find it at any art supply online store.
I really don't know if they kill the animals, but I suspect that they do, because the hairs are removed with the 'root' of the hair. If you could open that silver ferrel of your brush, you'd see the hairs.
Why use only 6 colours, when you had room for an extra 3?
+Gary McGuire Two sets of primary colours are usually good enough. If you want more convenience, such as mixing colours faster, then you can have more colours in your palette.
Is it for sales now?
Not sure. You can ask her on Instagram
instagram.com/peggyzoewong/
I want two please
Yeah three please .. when she decides to sell
I've customized my own with cosmetic powder case and pill cases
I thought you went vietnam?
+Toby Teo I came back a few days ago. Haven't got time to edit the videos made there yet.
Welcome back. Do show us your sketch books from the trip!
Are you a Singaporean???
Yes
@@teohyc would you say that Faber Castell is a good brand of watercolour for beginners or watercolours from pop art
@@Crim35610 Faber Castell is known more for their coloured pencils.
Hahaha i have prang oval palettes hahahaha rip
Medicine box can do, right?
Amazing video but I couldn’t help but laugh every time you said “maknaks”
FIFTH
we cannot get them so why show off? Dont review things that artists cannot get. That is money grubbing for views.
TerrieJ DimestoreDivaTV I think he was more showing off his friend.
