In today's video, I go over how I preserve my finished colored pages from transfer and fading. I hope this helps! Thanks for watching.
I like to use Krylon Workable Fixative, but there's many other good brands out there. Here's a link to Krylon on Amazon, but most craft stores will have it in stock and possibly at a better price, so it's worth pricing it out.

I recommend you give it a try on a test page first before using it on your artwork. That way you can get a feel for how lightly to spray and how the paper and your mediums react!! 😉

Thank you for sharing. We don't have Krylon in Sweden. I have to find something similar.

Thank you for the tips! I think O have oversaturated my pages. Kori gave me the genius tip to use it for sealing coloring pages in which I will be using alcohol markers to avoid the ink from bleeding 🎉

First off … WOW your work is breathtaking beautiful 😮😍 I have NO IDEA how I haven’t come across your channel before! Or how you dont have thousands more subscribers. But am so excited to have found you. Funny, was looking for idea using distress/and flowers. Came upon yours from i think 7 months ago. Am watching that next. Hehe. And seen this. I have debated getting this for so long! Now I’ve decided it is time! Haha! This is my sign. I use pastels sometimes, and have just used hairspray. (I know, i know, not the best) but I didn’t really mind if lasted 100 years and it does keep them in place! BUT yeah. Time to upgrade. 😄 And mostly because I usually use pencils. And some watercolor mediums. Basically all kinds mixed media 😂. And im always having to cut and put papers between pages for no transfer. And i hate having to flip through my books and having papers in there separating pages. I’ve wondered if this spray would really help not have to do that. And keep my uncolored pages (and colored) safe. ?!? Sorry this has been very long message 😬 Im getting this today. Just wanted to ask .. seems be different versions of this spray. Your link took me to matte?? Is that correct.?? Thanks so much!!! ❤

@jenscoloringcorner Жыл бұрын

Yeah it says matte finish, but it does still leave the page a little bit shiny for some odd reason. 🤷‍♀️ Happy you found my channel! I don’t do a lot of advertising and such…lol! Probably why I don’t have a lot of viewers. And I just started my channel at the beginning of this year so I haven’t had it going for that long really. But happy to have you! Let me know if you have any other comments or questions, and I’ll be happy to help!😊👍

Can this go over images with water colors? Does this eliminate the need to place a piece of parchment down in between the pages? (Sorry I'm a new colorist 🙂)

@jenscoloringcorner 8 ай бұрын

No problem! So, yes, I use this on all of my pages with many different mediums. Watercolors too! And while I don’t personally use parchment to separate pages, you could, if you wanted extra protection. But with this spray coating over the pages, I don’t think it’s really necessary.

What do you use to prevent colored pages from fading after framed?

@jenscoloringcorner 2 ай бұрын

This process is to protect the colored pages. you can then frame after you have sprayed the fixative. If you have a page that is already framed, you can simply remove it from the frame, spray the fixative and allow it to dry completely, and then reframe it. Hope that helps.

So do you do this before OR after you color or both?

This is to just preserve your coloring. So after.

What about the colored pencil? I am scared they would bleed.

@jenscoloringcorner Жыл бұрын

I use it on all my colored pencil work and as long as I don’t saturate the page with the fixative it’s fine. The one I demonstrated on was pencil work over alcohol markers.

@@artandcraftbysilke I mean, obviously it’s totally up to you. Try it first on one you don’t really care about. As long as you use a fine light mist it should be fine. 👍

@@jenscoloringcorner I am afraid, it depends on the pencil brand. Some are quiet water suible (hope thats the right word) like Brutfuner (which I use often). I will try it out on a sheet of paper and test all brands first. I have also seen fixative spray that is for watercolors. I also use watercolors often. Maybe I should buy one of these fixatives.

The problem with this is it’s so toxic, and if you work on the coloring book in the future, you are still inhaling the vapors

@jenscoloringcorner 3 ай бұрын

Ok. I understand what you are saying however people can use their own discernment and choose to use it or not. I just had people ask me how I do it and so I made the video.

@thecoloringoasis5616 3 ай бұрын

@@jenscoloringcorner it definitely does work for sure. I think it’s better for single coloring pages that you’re going to then put into a slipcover into a binder and not a book you continue to work on. I would love a video on other methods of preserving pages different fixatives that are nontoxic. For coloring books.
