My Art Collection + Storage | Part 1 

I love roaming through art stores, just looking and touching various objects and dreaming about what I'd use it for, and your room is like the exact place I would spend hours just rummaging through... eh, that sounds weird. Nevermind :P

Oh gosh. That room is a dream. I've got nowhere near enough money for even an eighth of those supplies, but they're all so beautiful, oh my gosh. That is my heaven. Thanks for sharing this! :D

I've already posted the drawing of Sloth on my Blog (link in the description box) :)

Loving the spring so far. Made me feel a million times happier :)

Your voice is so calming!

When I work on something I don't like to stop till its finished, I'm extremely critical of my own work and it I stop and leave a few days in between painting something I start to hate it and never get it finished. Not to mention I get a mild reaction to some oil paints which makes my face swell up, not fun haha :)

Graphic Design :)

This video was really helpful because I have been needing art supplies but have not been sure were to get some that other artist think are great to use. You are one of my favourite youtubers and your tutorials are amazing.

That's a fake account. I always try and use JUST my name on any given social media and I always list all my social media on my blog and in the description box of all my videos :)

So sorry this video is up late today. When I tried to upload it last night it told me it was going to take 381 minutes to upload (600 for part 2). But it's up now. Hope you like it :)

Not good to store the big sheets vertically for longer time.

I've linked it at the end of the video (I'm just writing up the blog post for it before I make it live)

Haha I wouldn't mind that. Flippin' love that shop!

Tripod. My hands shake quite badly so I avoid actually holding a camera as much as possible :)

It would be amazing if you could a few tutorials on pro markers and how to use them thanks love ya 😜 xx

No, sorry. That's too personal and my personal life has no place on the internet.

Now You Tube is my job, but the majority of this was bought when I was doing my art A-levels and graphic design, and it's something I've always loved so I invest in it :)

That's only because I'd cleaned it for this video lol :)

Sorry, but I like to keep my private life to myself :)

Ok, give me a minute and I'll make it live for you :)

Also, for those metal drawers, if you can find a reuse center nearby you that'd be the place to go to find them REALLY cheap. I know a lot of larger universities have them, for example I go to the one the UofM has. You could probably pick up one of those for less than 50 there. I got a nice computer chair for $5 (it was a $10 buy one get one free my friend and I took advantage of) that still had all the tags on it!

I totally understand you. People are so nosy!

I'm aiming to :)

I studied Graphic Design :)

I'm 21 :)

Yes :)

This is an awesome walkthrough. I seriously.... you are so organized! I mean- I'm organized with my suppies to a *point*- but YOU are like- geez. Fascinating. I would have asked you to do a video like this but I would have assumed you'd say no :)

Ah I love watercolor and pencil too. I used to really love pastels but I've started disliking them recently. You've inspired me to start uploading my drawings though because it's so scary, but in a way, why not? Haha I wanted to ask if you knew of a paint to get the metallic foil look. I wanted to add something metallic to one of my watercolors and I was going to use metallic arylic paint, but it looks more shimmy, and not foil reflective.

you are just amazing... and inspiration.... although i even after trying many times i am just not able to be good at drawing.. i am just moody... when i am in mood i can draw better than what i normally do... but you are superb cant ever dream of even getting near your skills... even in make up artistry... Lots of Love... Swati

I make my own birthday cards too and people really appreciate it :) No way! I thought I was the only weirdo who stored 'junk' for upcycling like sweet wrappers and such. Yey! I'm not alone! :) You're a great bargain hunter too. Really appreciate you sharing where's cheapest to get specific things. Like I have only one pro marker, coz they're so expensive.

bit and bobs ;) When you showed these metallic candy liners I was like "these look like ferrero rocher liners... But no, they are probably not sold in the uk" then you said they were ferrero rochers :P Awesome collection ;) Makes me wanna paint and do more art, but also makes me feel guilty for doing that so rarely...

Wow! You have very many art collections! I was wondering when will you post a new video for KlairedelysArt? RU-vid does not show all of the subscriptions anymore which annoy me. I am very excited for you're 7 Deadly Sins videos, I hope they will be out soon. :-)

I'd just bought a big tub of Crawford&Black black paint from the Works for 1.99 and some Boldmere paintbrushes for 99p

I'm currently studying Graphic Design in college and I love it, had no idea you were also studying it :) I'm planning on going UNI myself and continuing Graphics, would you say it's worth while? I'm still slightly in the dark about courses related to Graphics. Anyway, your collection is fantastic! I strive to one day have many art supplies, so I can make much more diverse artwork from home. I fantasize on having a huge room just full of my materials, where I can spend all day being happy! :D

Some artist don't have pretty room most of them have pretty stuff *fact And most of them prefer a solid one and a neat one because if you forgot where you put stuff it will be just a complete bad things because art supplies are expensive

Well it's taken me years to get to this stage so I'm sure you'll get there at some point :)

You listed all my favourite mediums :P. I don't really like pastels but I always thought pastel pencils would be easier to use. My dad always used to say I was crazy collecting all the sweet wrappers but now I know other people do it too :D

Before I started college I was sent a list of things I needed to get for class, I went to an art store and although I only got a few things it cost me £200. We were then given things from college which came from another art store and I added everything up and it came to about £300. Art isn't cheap! Thank god for The Works!!!

Also another question, out of curiosity, why acrylics over oil? I've been fiddling with both for a long time, and I can't really pick which one I prefer. I've been using oil for longer than acrylics though.

Pastels are my favorite! I use oil pastels and I like layering them..my pastel paintings are always really think and I basically live with the pastels stuck in my fingernails from rubbing it on and scraping it off

I think the brand is called Bisley :)

No I mean which ones in Ikea are they?do you mean the wooden MALM collection or did you find something a bit better with more drawers in it? I couldn't find metallic ones on their website. Thanks :)

I always watch this video. I especially like it when you go through what you have in your draws. I am starting my own collection. Hope you don't mind me copying, but you are very inspiring.

if you want to make a masquerade mask you should try using cold porcelain! you could easily make some at home and it self dries, so you don't need to go through the hassle of baking it!

Hey Klaire, do you have any suggestions on what to use to paint mist/fog? I don't have the money for an airbrush compressor and I really want to make some misty nature paintings~~~

21 :)

Ferrero Rocher are EVERYWHERE! I even spotted them in a Vlog from Bubzbeauty, a irish-chinese youtuber who now lives in Hongkong... Though I have to admit they are quite yummy...

So true about keeping things out, I keep my really big sheets of paper in a box under my bed and half the time I forget they even exist, same for any art supply.

Your art collection.. i died. lol. it's so awesome!:D i want to have one like that one day. i have a pretty small one right now, it is a work in progress(:

If you ever get the chance, would it be possible to do a tutorial for using promarkers? I know they're good for blending, but have no idea how to use them! :)

So glad to hear that :)

klaire there is an instagram called klairedelysart and it said that its the official instagram. do you have 2 accounts or just the one in your description box?

All your videos are so interesting! Just a random question: do you live alone or with parents/boyfriend/etc? Sorry if it's too personal, I'm just curious :)

nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiicccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Ahh that sounds awful, the face swelling :( I'm on the boat with you with the overly critical. I tend to work quickly with watercolors for that reason :)

I really liked this video! Btw, maybe, when you do get a chance to make those cards, you could use some of them in a giveaway? That would be so awesome!

Paper Clay is great for making molded shapes. For example: I have an very open fillagree heart pendant. I rolled out the paper clay to the desired thickness, took the pendant and pressed it into the clay. Cooked it in the oven and painted it. It's lightweight and makes wonderful designs for cards and multi-media artwork. I've also made plaques by making impressions with rubber stamps. You can also use in regular clay molds.

I have lots of art supplies, but I'm always apprehensive to use things like pastels because I'm afraid of running out of 1 color from a set hahaha

please can you do a pro marker review! they look really cool and I'd loved to see the way you use them ! I loved this video by the way

I completely agree with you, Klaire. So many beauty gurus expose to much of their private life on RU-vid and I'm really glad you don't do that :)

Is there any platform where we can watch your art (other than youtube), like deviantart? :) Would be lovely to see some of your work =)

I will do - thanks so much Klaire! I have a feeling you're gonna save me a lot of money in the future, hehe. Bargain-hunters unite! :D

is there a works in london ? because I'm going with my school to london and if it's close to where I'm going I might pass by that shop

I can't remember exactly, but I know there's some very similar there (: And if I'm not mistaken they're not very expensive either.

I always assumed clay shapers were just smudgers for charcoal and chalks..i didn't know they were for clay XD ah well, I love them :D

I have about 20 promarkers, I wish they were less expensive but I do love them and use them a lot :) really interesting video

U said u purchased ur drawers at staple, what is the actual item name so that I can look it up on their site, please. Thanks.

is there an online site for the works, because where I live I only have michaels and the stuff there can get really expensive

Check out ebay for pro-markers. It can take quite a bit of hunting around but you can snap up an absolute bargain some times :)

I think your drawers look professional! :) Btw could you do a blog or perhaps a video on your Chinese and Japanese art stuff?

That vase with the mosaic stones on it looks fascinating, by the way. And I like watching storage stuff like this, though mine isn't really organised much but more all over the place xD

I love The Works as well!! Thought i was the only one :L I've never bought their paint though. Is it a good quality? :3

I suck at "normal" art except for oil and chalk pastels xD Any kind of paint makes me so sad because I suck so badly at it.

You should try cass art. Its near charrion cross station. Its really good and really cheap. They also have a website. :)

Klaire, what clay would you reccomend to do something that would be mounted on a chimney breast above fire place? x

I wish, do wish I'd ever be this organized... I probably wish it even more than I wish to be half as talented as you are. LOL :)

Palette knifes are great for Impasto painting, not just mixing :) You have like my dream art collection!!!

this is going to sound so weird, but i could listen to you talking for hours, you have a lovely voice :)

Do you go to the range ps I go to the works 😀😀🖌🖌📝

And my Facebook name isn't Connor by the way, this is my brothers youtube. I am actually Kayleigh, lol.

How often do you go on Facebook? I have a few questions that I hope you will be able to answer. Thanks.

I don't know anything about air brushes, but why don't you have your compresser in your airbrush drawer instead of your bits and bobs drawer? Great video by the way!

I liked the chinese stuff and the whole video. Thanks.

This gives me such inspiration for finally sorting out my art supplies! I have draws and storage but nothing is organised and I never know where anything is

yeah, but in england an appartment is smaller and a LOT more expensive because they're in busy town centres

I reside in the USA so I have to use the currency converter to distinguish Pounds and Dollars lol

Not sure if you have ,but maybe check out The Range ,It's great for all kinds of art supplies :)

I literally adore promarkers - I have the extension caps and all. I've collected them over time :)

I searched hobby craft for promarkers and they are so expensive, BTW are you from Coventry?

What about draw my life art edition????? Like how you got interested in art and your journey!!!

I always post a new video every friday so you've probably missed a few uploads :)

I have that exact pink card box you've got on top of your filing cabinet. I use it to store old family photos :)

The metallic ones that you can see in the beginning of the video right next to her table. (:

Where did you get the plaster paint you were talking about? I have the same problem..... :(

how much is 40 pounds and 50 pounds is there a difference compared to uk money or just the phrase

Wher can I find part 2 I'm on my iPad and it doesn't let me follow video links thanks x :)

What does "bips and bobs" mean? I'm sorry, we don't say that in the US and I'm confused! lol :)

I love using those quality street rappers! I made half my window a stain glass window :)

I love The Works! I get most of my books from there are they are so reasonably priced :)

boy you got alot of stuff..... AND I LUV EVERY SINGLE BIT!
