If you don't want to use tack or glue, you could always cut cardboard or basswood pieces to place at the ends to hold the paints tight.

Even more gorgeous arty things to lust after! Some tiny blobs of BlueTack (or the White version) underneath your pans and squashed down will solve your sliding problem. Love your colour choices esp the Verditer Blue, thanks Natasha xx

Wow, I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a pretty little palette! That shine 😍✨

Frazer Price Brass Palette Box what a beautiful Box! 🫣 If one isn’t a watercolorist, this treasure certainly could push them over the watercolors edge. 🫠🖌🎨 I enjoyed watching and listening to your thoughts on how you build your palette. I’m looking forward to seeing what magic you create with this new palette. I used to hesitate to use my beautiful art supplies. Then I thought if I don’t use and enjoy them, the next owner will! I dearly love the next owner and I want us to share in the beauty of the treasured art supplies. 👩🏼‍🎨🎨🖌🧑🏻‍🎨 I’m 71 now, but I wish I had realized this when I was younger. Using them doesn’t make them less precious, they become more precious in the works of art you create…as no other can. Love, Fran

TO STOP THE PANS FROM MOVING: I use blue tack or ticky tack. I center all the pans together and then make like a bumper with the tack to keep them from sliding back towards the edge. Edit: I sent you a pic on instagram In my palette I have the Daniel Smith Jane Blundel 15 pan ultimate mixing set and added yellow ochre, raw sienna, quin burnt orange to round it out to 18!

I’m honestly enjoying this video. I’ll be sad when it ends.

I’m getting more and more comfortable with brand-curated and self-curated palettes,(talking color sets here.) A more limited palette seems to help me focus and make some better color choices. And your Frazer Price painting palette is so nice and I’m sure you’ll love using it. And such great color choices! 😊 p.s. For some reason I can’t remember, when I placed my last Jackson’s order, I decided to try a tube of Turner’s yellow green watercolor. I’m a fan of yellow greens and greenish yellows and chartreuse colors. It’s a really lovely and lively color. Just wanted to pass that on for any other yellow-green fans out there.

Yes, buff titanium makes the loveliest pastel mixes, so glad someone recommended it and that you enjoyed it! I added it to my palette after seeing it in some watercolor videos and it's been a wonderful addition to my mixing palette.

Very fancy palette!! 😍 One of those days when you need Natasha’s watercolour love! 👌🏼🤗🧡

I use red line two sided tape on the bottom of the pans and it holds them tightly in place.

Quinacridone coral… One of my favorite colors in the whole wide world!!!

I love 💕 the music!

Lovely. Two options to stop the sliding about is to slide the pans to one side and then add a bit of artists' moldable eraser to fill the end. You can also find glue dots to put on the bottoms of the pans. I personally don't like pans for that reason, plus they ruin my brushes. I purchased the 48 pan A. Gallo set and I have to dot glue the pans in place just so I can mix in my ceramic pallets.

So glad you have shared this video with us. I actualy have two of The frazer Palette boxes myself,which were a gift from a late artist friend,and they are such beautiful objects,made more so by the fact they are functional as well.But they have been gathering dust in a draw in my studio for sometime (sorry to say),but after watching this wondful video I am gong to get them borh out and work out a palette of colours to put into both of them,so thank you for inspiring me to do this I will spend a weekend on this. You have such a natural gift for choosing colours and creating pallettes and it's lovely to haer your insights for chossing them and how you will use them,your love of colour realy comes across in your videos.Naples Yellow is a staple in my cache as its a great mixing colour and a colour I have alway just loved.I too use Buff Titanium I think it's beause of you that I discovered this colour and it's great mixing capabilities and it quuckly became a staple colour for me as well. I love that you also got inspiration from one of your subcribers too in choosing the colours,and its a glowing testament to the great community you have around you channel. I love the fact this field box is in effect a liitle portable studio,so I hope it will inspire yoy to try painting 'en plain air' as they say,but also great for visits to see Mum too.I would suggest myabr small blobs of bluu take or whitetack to keep the pans in place,but maybe what about little velcro dots,you can by packs of these realy cheaply on amzon etc and some are the size of these tiny magnets I know you use in your other plaetttes,you can ger velcro dots in packs or on a roll.I think it's great too that you are using more unsual colours in your paleetes like the red you went with,but that you can instantly see how you will use it in your amazing artwork.and it's always a pleasure to see you colour mixing and seeing what happens and it look like this field box plalette is going to give you a large range of colour mixing possibilities. Hope to get to see some artwork created with this palette. (matt)P.s a messy well loved desk is a sign of of contented and inspired artist! and I have a massive furry jumper too and don't mind looking yeti like as it keps me warm.You do describe /talk about colours really well in a very as you would say a Natatasha way,but also in a way that is simmilar to how we would describe colours ourselves as artists.

I have this palette too. My colours are polaris, monte amiate sienna, fossil, cassel earth, ultramarine, vintage green, vernier, paynes grey, bright rose, virgo, cobalt turquoise, cool indigo, shadow, and white gouache and gold. It is such a beautiful accessory. I loved your colour choices and the mixes. X

I enjoyed this swatching session very much, Natasha. You and Mary have created a fun palette. The W&N Cobalt Green Deep - wow, got to have it! Buff Titanium is marvelous for mixing what we here in the U.S. associate with the Southwestern desert. They are colors used in decor. How faithful they are to the real desert I couldn't say. It will be interesting to see how this palette inspires your new work. 💥

This is mesmerizing. And I agree about the preciousness and being intimidated. I feel a little precious about my A Gallo paints. :)

Your videos help "give me permission" to try things that I want to do, but don't know if I'm "allowed" to do, haha (also thanks to Mary 😃). Still very new to watercolour. I really struggle with standard mixing palettes (standard warm/cool of each primary), as there are so many other watercolour pigments that I find inspiring. My particular brand of brain makes it harder to remember how to mix and what they'll look like! And I love how you've ordered them in your palette - so visually appealing. This is a great palette that includes my favourite inspiring colours like Quin Gold, Potter's Pink, Cobalt Teal, Cobalt Green Deep, Bloodstone, Green Grey, Schminke granulating paint, etc. Love that a mixing palette can include these. It opens a whole realm of possibilities! I've been curious about Verditer Blue as well, so that was very helpful, Mary. :)

Lovely colour mixes! 5.15 for those like me that want to copy the colours

Museum putty was something that was suggested to me from a seller on Etsy to keep the pans from sliding around and it works like a charm. Love this palette and such beautiful selections of colors in your new tin! I also fell in love with Green Grey when I was in need of a new green for a palette. Have yet to try verditer blue and its on my list. I just got the 2022 Schmincke Ultimate Mixing Palette and expanded the selection of single pigment granulating colors to have fun trying to replicate supergranulating colors and more. its so fun to put together new combinations of colors to see what you can get!

LOVE the colors! Thank you for sharing with us. It's a good point to not be too precious about it. I'm struggling with that as an artist. 😀

I enjoyed this video. Thank you Natasha. ❤ Perhaps cutting a piece of sponge or foam to place at the end of each row as needed would work. That way it is not messy, easy to change and keeps the case in perfect condition. I have a difficult day tomorrow as we release my dogs soul. He is a 15 1/2 year old sausage dog and the best companion. I am heartbroken 💔. Your kind and gentle way has given me a few moments of comfort today and I appreciate it. Take care.

Love the palette and am exactly the same with new things! W&N Payne's Grey and DS Buff Titanium are two of my can't do withouts. When I need to simplify after overwhelm I'll use only those two with one other in tiny touches - maybe Quin Gold or Winsor Red deep. Some of those mixes really are gorgeous :) Maybe strips of double-sided tape to secure the pans?

I also always add buff titanium

Blue tack under the pans. 😊 Lovely, lovely selection!

What a pretty little palette! I too would be afraid of breaking or messing it up 😆 at the same time it's inspiring to use such lovely products!

Haha,such a lovely word : Paletteless !!

Blue tack will work to keep your pans still (I use it all the time for mine) or magnets if surface is metallic. ✌🏼💜

6 months late, but i found the double pans for the portable painter mini fit really well in here if you have them. you can essentially remove 1 half pan and add two more colours and it helps fill up a lot of that wiggle room so things fit in snugly.

Hi Natasha, wow such a beautiful pallet, it’s so beautiful. I love the colour choices and has you have shown such great mixing capabilities. The colours on the paper looked gorgeous. Great video Natasha Thankyou for sharing xxx

Wow I literally fell in love with the Naples yellow (I have one but it doesn’t look as gorgeous as yours) the cherry red is lovely and verditer blue wow wow, those three alone are my fav! Buff titanium is an absolute must it’s so dreamy, it goes with whatever I decide to sit down and paint! Brilliant video Natasha and congrats on breaking into the palette - can’t wait to see what you create xx

This is not a palette of colors I would normally choose but I really, really like the mixes you were coming up with. You’ve got me thinking!

Some quite interesting colour mixes with this palette. The Roman Szmal Potter’s Pink is lovely

Now that's a fancy palette 🎨 gorgeous colours you choose too

ooh really like that tundra violet😀 the palette creates some really nice colours

Natasha, Such a treat for the eyes! The pallete itself is so gorgeous and I really love the colors🤤 😍

Fab swatching video, Natasha and such a beautiful palette and colours..You can get different sized clear glue dots which is what I use for my loose pans and they’re easily removed IF you need to change pans etc, plus they’re all the same size and width as I can never get blu tac to be the same size lol xx

Gorgeous💛Mary’s pick’s are👌🏻lovely palette and video

Such a gorgeous palette, in both senses of the word😀

Absolutely gorgeous video. The palette, the music , the variety of colours you mixed which looked delicious, they looked good enough to eat.Loved every minute and great advice about overcoming the fear of pristine art supplies. I have several sketchbooks I can’t bring myself to use! Madness ! What am I waiting for? Thank you for the inspiration, Natasha .

Can't wait to see what you create with this palette, Natasha. And I found some colors I'd like to add to my collection! Thank you!

What a gorgeous palette! Love your choice and I agree Potters Pink is a must 🥰 In some small palettes you could stop the pans from moving by slightly widening the bars which separate each row. but I am not sure if that is the case in the Frazer Palatte Box. But of course Blue Tack helps alway. Thank you for sharing

Thank you Mary and Natasha. I'm going to make my own mini palette with similar colours to try.

Lovely brass box for your paint colors to find a home in...enjoyed your video..mikelle art mom👩‍🎨🎨✍

Oh My, I love that set. Ordered last time under Jackson's for you and I need that Buff titanium now. I have to go back over some of your videos and see what gouaches you use. I'm having the hardest time choosing between regular and acrylic gouache. I'm taking a class and they didn't specify. Looking forward to more painting videos.

Mary made some fantastic suggestions, there! I might need to get a buff titanium, now.

I ended up cutting small pieces of an eraser to take up the extra space too keep pans from sliding in one of my palettes. But I’ve also heard that the sticky blue tac or whatever it’s called (used for hanging posters and stuff without using tacks and putting holes in the wall) works well. Or if the palette is magnetic, than magnets stuck to the pans. Good luck. Love the colors you’ve chosen.

Stick a little piece of kneeded eraser under or in between the pans. That's what I do. Like putty. Sticky but not permanent and easy to remove

I've been getting back into painting recently and listening to you talk about your selection was really soothing and interesting! Your palette looks really good, and I hope it makes your painting experience more pleasing :)

II bought his palette earlier this year….and have been afraid to fill it….Thanks for the video….BIG help!

I enjoyed this so much....I watched it twice!

Such lovely mixes! Do I get intimidated y beautiful supplies? Oh yes! I don’t really use them though, so it doesn’t matter 😁 I do think watercolour items can tend to fall into that category quite often, and I rarely use it these days - it’s beautiful but I prefer the freedom of being able to change my mind easily.

To stop my pans from movin in my palettes I use a kind of plasticine, you know, the one that you can use for sticking posters to the wall. A little bit of it on the bottom of the pan and everything stays in place

I haven’t been here in a bit so hello again!! that is a very pretty palette and the colors you chose are very versatile! buff titanium is always a must (you’ve converted me over and now I can’t make any painting without it lol :) naples yellow is a palette staple for me, and i’ve recently gotten the cobalt green deep and i’ve fallen in love 💖 can’t wait to see what you create with this palette!! (this might be a short term fix, but double sided tape could help with the pans sliding around 🤷)

What beautiful and unexpected mixes.

What a beautiful palette box and wonderful colours. Loved the mixing!!

YES! Buff titanium and Potter's Pink are in all my mixing palettes now. Same with Cobalt Teal Blue, but as i like dark moody colors too I always have Perylene Green and Perylene Violet as well as an Indigo or Indanthrone Blue! And i always will have DS's Quin Gold, Quin Burnt Orange, and Nickle Azo Yellow b/c those are the colors of light i only want to use (i have bought up SOOOO many of the quin gold and quin burnt orange so i can have PO 48 long after it is finally all gone, that is how much i love it!) Of course my split primaries, Roman Szmal's Aquarius Green, and Holbein's Bright Rose. Im going to have to try Schmincke's Naples Yellow! It looks beautiful! Kind of like a mix between DS Naples Yellow and QoR Cadmium Primrose! And Bloodstone is one of my necessaries too! I love dark and moody and i use it instead of black. You can use a magnet and separate the red from the blackish!!! And i mean even more so than letting it granulate naturally! Drag a magnet under your painting while it is soaking wet or under your puddle in your palette!!OK im sorry, ill stop rambling.🤣🤣🤣 I just love colors and playing around with them!

Gorgeous choices and the mixes are so beautiful.

I would use pieces of cheap synthetic sponges to hold the pans still by putting them in the spaces. (PS: Nice video and colors, and nice music!)

I love the palette. I have 11 of the colors already (but not the same brands so much) So I made some substitutions with brands and found some very close subs for the Green Grey (Denise's Grey- DaVinci, and Tundra Violet I mixed Ultramarine Blue(Daniel Smith) and Violet Iron Oxide (DaVinci) and its really close. I have to work on seeing if I can get it to granulate a bit more. Used Cobalt Blue (Mission Gold) with some PW6 and got it pretty close to the Verditer Blue. I have to work on mixing until I get it rigtht. I just loved the colors you were able to mix that I spent most of my day working on putting a palette together that would work! I only had to order one color! Quinacridone Red from MGraham , same PR 209 pigment! Hope it mixes all the beautiful colors you were able to get! Thank you for this video. It challenged me to find proper substitutions as I can not afford Schmincke, Holbein, and never ordered from Jackson's before. I would love to see some art videos with you using those beautiful colors! Totally enjoyed your video. 💖

oooh that's a great looking selection of paints! I totally get having art supplies that feel to precious to be used, and I'm trying hard not to let myself be intimidated by things. they're meant to be used, aren't they? I hope you'll get lots of use out of your little palette

I love the color selections! I can see me using this with the addition of a brown such as burnt umber. And I appreciate all of the suggestions for keeping pans from sliding around. I hike with my paints and get annoyed when they rattle in my backpack.

you can put in loose places blue tack, sponge, or just piece of rolled paper

I cut up natural sponges to help keep pans from moving. Beautiful palette thank you for sharing Natasha!

1:53 the red paint looks like a jewel

If the pans are metal you might try a strip of magnetic tape. Otherwise you could try cutting a small bit of stiff foam and using double back tape secure it at the end of each row. Either of those ideas might help. As always, I enjoy your videos. Thanks :)

You can fix the sliding pans by using a bit of clean kneaded eraser and creating a solid oblong that just fills the space. Squishing it slightly will ensure the fit is tight. I have used this very effectively in a Fome palette that had the same problem. Maybe putting your full pans in one row together might help too. I love cherry quinacridone, added it to Kremer box that had only a sort of vintage red, I love your new box, but doubt I will ever have one myself! The mixes look really lovely, I am adding colours to a mixing palette by Schmincke and trying to keep it in character, all unusual choices so this has been very timely for me. I hope you have a lot of fun with this, and hope you show some of the work you make with it.

I had issues with pans moving before, and also when I assembled a palette in a box without a grid, if that makes sense? It had a flat surface. So, to attach / fix the pans, I used Fixo-Gum. We used it in architecture school for model building. It’s rubber cement, like a glue. The kind of stuff that attaches your new bank card to the letter .. 😅 So it can be easily removed again, unlike normal glue.

Lovely palette! I know you’ve finished with it for now, but there’s a very lovely pastel yellow single pigment from Schmincke, it’s called Rutile yellow. I find it very unique and makes nice mixes too.

I don't know why but I thought that it would be an art box with special paints that you would sell. 😀 😀 😀 This palette is so beatifull.

That looks so clean and new! so fun until we actually paint, and the realness happens! You've filled it wonderfully.

Hello Natasha, A glue stick to use on the surfaces, will prevent both beading and staining! Wipe off with a damp tissue. Can be done on new or old palettes, tin, brass or plastic I think you will make some nice greens and moody purples with this palette. All of your darks will act like a neutral when added to any of the brights. You can make the complementary opposite neutral mixes too. Like your cherry pink and a bright green to make a new black. Blue tack or magnets are the way to go. I also pack with wooden paddle pop sticks if I need some thickness on the sides. Thanks for the relaxing session, nice while unwell to watch you do play with your colours, instead of me. In kindred spirit, Eliza Australia x Saturday 19th of November 2022 bed office

gorgeous box and wonderful video!

I love the cherry red!! My favorite red, I also have it in my studio pallet. ❤

What a gorgeous palette and what gorgeous colours that fill it, you made some gorgeous colours when mixing. I’m going to have to watch back and make a note as I would really like to create a mixing palette at some point. Loved the chill vibes as well with the music in the background x

lovely palette :)

I use a thin layer of putty type wall mounting tack to keep the pans from sliding. 😊

LOVED this video...thank you

So pretty - I'd love your opinion on using the palette as a whole when you are out and about xx

Your handwriting is very neat 😊

What a very interesting selection of colours, thanks for sharing 😊

A suggestion to keep the pans from moving would be to place a small thin line of “putty” of sorts to squish the pans in and they won’t move. I saw someone do this in a video and wrote it down for my future self! The putty I would use is also known as “instant tack”. Good luck! And beautiful palette!

To stop your pans from moving around I would cut strips of baking paper and roll it into the widths that will fill the spaces.

Such A nice palette! Nice video for a wintery day. ☺

Try using tack to keep the pans in place. That’s what I do. Since the pans are already inside tracks, you probably only need a teeny tiny dot.

wonderful colours ^_^

lovely colours! Suggest tiny pieces of blu-tack to keep pans from jiggling about

❤ lovely as always Natasha 😊👏🙏

I put blue tack in my pallet to stop the moving around 🙂

I enjoyed seeing how the colors mixed with each other. Watching you swatch watercolor is dangerous for me because it makes me want to try more colors. 😅

Use little bit of blutack at the bottom to stop the pans moving about x

I put double sided tape on the bottom of the pans so they don’t move around

Your desk is filthy? Looks pretty clean to me. 😮

thanks)

How have you been getting on with this mixing palette? I’d love to see an update - are all the colours you chose still in the palette or have you swapped any out? Do you have any paintings that used this palette exclusively that you could share?

How do you like having the M. Graham paint in your travel pallet? It is such a honey rich paint that it likes to travel out of the pan when it is moved around.

Hi ! What's the brush you're using for your swatches please ? I've been looking at a good flat one for ages but can never deicide, there's just too many !

I love this box but I do not love the price, that always seems to be the issue with this pretty stuff.

Does the palette hold water on the other side? Love your color choices!

First!
