I don’t have any arty friends, but I love the idea of making tiny gift palettes…they are really cute!

Lamy invested in the original design and engineering of their pens, uses higher quality resins and parts (see other comments here), has better quality control, has a warranty, has marketing, has physical stores, and has product support... all of which adds to their expenses. All of this may or may not justify the cost difference to you, but it illustrates that there is much more to consider than what was mentioned above. Also consider, in many places, the Lamy pens are sold in brick and mortar stores, and the pricing guidelines from Lamy have to accomodate those stores' expenses and profits, too.

Those all looked like a great batch of art supplies. I particularly love the largest 120 pencil bag. The watercolors & the paper worked lovely. Thanks for sharing this wonderful video with us💕 😊

Once again, I love watching you unpack your goodies. Ive never heard of this company, and I wish I hadn't, because now I'll have to take a look. I don't need anything, as I could stock my own art shop You must have an amazing amount of art storage space, or maybe just very organised, which comes over in the way you present your supplies and workings. Thank you for the excitement of opening your order.

What a great haul. I've ordered some tiny wooden palettes from Temu and some stamps like yours, but I've wondered about their watercolour paper. This was really helpful. Thank you!

Those mini pallets are gorgeous! Such a great gift idea.

Hi Helen, Really great Temu unboxing - I’ve been curious about it but after having a quick look I didn’t bother with it but im enjoying seeing the art supplies you found - you got a good price for the Marie’s water brush pot. 👍

Thanks - you've just made me do another Temu order! I have the wooden palette and the water holder and the superior paints already and agree totally with your assessment :)

Happened upon this video. Love that you did an art supply TEMU haul. I live in the US, have purchased many items from TEMU. Great to see many affordable art supplies. Thanks for sharing😊

Love the pencil case, been looking at them on net for all pencils , instead of being in separate tins & small cases this gives a better overview. Really enjoy your unpacking of art hauls, I enjoy it as much as Iwould if I’d ordered! Fun!

The fan water colours have been around for a long time. They’re really fun. I’ve got the 42 sets of 48 just to let you know though let them dry fully if you can before putting them back together because they can stick to the top of the next one, if they’re very wet. I think they’re actually die babe, but I’m not entirely sure either way they’re cheap and nice colours all the same to use for a quick sketches.

I had no idea you could get art supplies on Temu - thanks so much for showing all of the nice goodies you got on there. Will definitely consider getting some materials when I next have to buy supplies :)

Those watercolors are amazing!

Thank you ..i am trying to find cheap GOOD supplies...and i appreciate how thoroughly you went into these

I've been an artist who's been looking to KZfaq for inspiration for many years now and I'm ashamed to not have seen any of your video's before. But I'm glad I'm here now. 🥰 you got a new subscriber.

I have purchased cutting dies, stamps, and embossing folders from Temu and am happy with the product.

I have the same zippered pouch (with side access zip) and it is great for plein air painting. I can easily access the large inner section without opening the main zip. If I have a flat place to put it, the wires opening and flat bottom of the bag means easy access and it doesn't tip over. I also have the small wooden palette. The magnets aren't terribly strong, so I secure it with a soft hair tie. I've tried all three of the Academy papers and enjoy them. Temu also has some really ice small watercolour sketchbooks, with different styled and colourful covers. These are a great price and work well.

Thanks very much Helen for your reviews, it was really interesting ❤️🇨🇦

I need those Baohong papers asap. I’ve always been skeptical of ordering from Temu or Alibaba. You’ve got me convinced to try them out. I love your haul. Looking forward to putting my order out soon.

Hi from Australia, l have never ordered any items from Temu , great to hear your review of the products, also to see how well they are packed for sending. I make cards and like to use paint and pencil quite often so all your info was very helpful, thankyou 😀

I love all the pallets.. I never thought to look for those on Temu, I will now tho. Especially the wood one and little tins..for my purse and grandkids

Thank you for sharing your experience with Temu art supplies. I have had great experience with them with only 2 exceptions on rechargeable batteries. I searched pencil ✏ cases and found so many cute ones in various camouflage patterns with different compartments. Including Molle systems which are normally very expensive with small ones being $15 >n the least. Not on Temu. Most were well under $10 $ $5.

So far, I have had a pretty good experience with Temu. I wish the descriptions were more specific. But, in terms of quality, I have no complaints. I feel I’ve gotten more than I paid for, really.

You got a really good haul!!! I love the color pencil case, I have been looking for one and this looks like a perfect fit. I have also wondered about the foldout paints, but I have so many watercolors already that I think I will skip, although I'll keep it in the back of my mind. The other thing is the watercolor paper, it's always so expensive, so this is a great find. Thanks for sharing! ❤

I saw many negative reviews for Temu online and was scared to try it. Glad it worked out for you! Thanks for video.

You just got onother follower just because you voice is so calming ❤

I’ve seem Temu advertised on Facebook and I was suspicious of the super cheap prices they showed in the ads, so I didn’t even go and look at the website (I’ve been caught out before by companies who advertise on Facebook!), but seeing this, I feel a spending spree coming on hahaha

Baohong is actually Meeden. Meeden are currently rebranding the BaoHong water colour papers to the Meeden name which will be easier to remember. I was initially adamant that I wasn’t going to buy anything from Temu…..but when I discovered that they sold the BaoHong water colour paper at this very reasonable price, I admit to giving in, and I did have to smile as I related so much to the same point 😂 The delivery to me here in the U.K. was only 7 days and was free of charge.

Helen, I ordered from temu several times lol! I like it! I've ordered the tiny wooden 8colored empty palette! I think the magnets need to be stronger in my opinion! But, I like it ~ rubber band or some kind of tie would help. I ordered a few journals that I noticed one didn't have the 100 percent cotton. So, for that I am using to practice on. Lol! I almost bought the academy paper! I'm wishing I did! I will the next time I order~ I bought other art supplies, clothes, a purse. And some other things to make a junk journal too. They do have some nice things. Ya just have to read the comments (reviews) and such. Great haul for you 👍🏻 Have fun with your haul ❤️✝️🙏🏻

I got that paint water bucket as a gift from my aunt, I adore it for my gouache works!

Hi Helen, Just subscribed. Don't typically watch "hauls" (perhaps it's just that word?), but this is my first video of yours and I found it fun and very helpful. I have a similar palette as your flip out one and have never used it. But now, after seeing how vibrant they are, I'm actually excited to use mine. Now, if I can only find it! Are you mainly a water color artist? I notice you got some new stamps. I, too, recently got a set with 5 packets, floral, mushrooms, vintage ladies (Which I really love), butterflies, and miscellaneous text, music, and vintage stamped ones. I'm happy with all of them. Then I also had gotten tickets (easy ephemera to put in my journals or collage) and find them to be nice small vintage editions to my paintings, collage, and tags. Anyway, I enjoyed your nice, calm talking voice, and yes, the things you bought as well. I am a junkie for different cases and love finding different types especially ones that are clear so I can see inside. I do that with many of my supplies already because I got so tired of having to unzip or open every case of mine just to find something. Too time consuming, huh. Happy painting and I look forward to more of your videos. XOXOJANE

I haven’t checked out Temu yet, trying to avoid any temptation for things I don’t “need” at the moment lol. However, definitely seems like a spot to keep in mind. I like those mesh pencil cases for organizing and being able to see what’s inside. I also wonder if my pencils would get more use if they were stored in one of those 120-elastic slot cases? I’m a sucker for all things stationary like the stamp-stickers and highlighters as well. I used to do a TON of card-making for a few years. Had to stop buying rubber stamping and cricut supplies a few years ago and admit I had enough… I get easily sucked into craft-supply shopping 😂.

I love Temu for the watercolor paper/ blocks and they have some decent paints also. The pencil cases ( first one you showed I use for my crochet hooks and stitch markers) I have stocked up on their Academy paper and some other brands to compare. Watercolor papers and paints etc… are not cheap so if I can find deals on any of them I grab what I need. I just placed another order to get another water brush bucket-

I have become addicted to just the art supplies from Temu. I have about three days a week something arrives. Currently working on a collection of watercolor pallettes

Thank you for sharing. Some of tgese could make a good arty Christmas stocking gift 😊

Hi Helen... yeah, all of those fan out strip watercolors are always highly pigmented. Whichever brand. Nice haul. 😊

I have both of those little baohong blocks too! I haven’t got the chance to use them yet but I hope they’ll be good 🤞🏻

I bought some items that weren't hard supplies from Temu a few months ago and what I got was very poor quality. Also they have been selling knock-offs of people's original work especially Kristy Rice. I've heard the paper seems to be legit though.

I've had a couple of spending sprees myself, my mum and I have tried to be careful too about ordering things that are a copy of someone else's hard work. The problem is there are so many things on there, that are priced so cheaply you can get sucked in. I think it takes a lot of patience or research to make sure there not a copy. Or to just steer clear of certain items like you said.

Really loved this video. Very helpful. I am from US. I want to try Temu just for art supplies. I really want the watercolor paper!! Thanks!!

How exciting! What's better than a big bag of stuff? Two big bags of stuff! 😂 I love that little wooden palette, so cute. I won't buy any dupes as per your warning. Wow at those paints! 😮 Thank you!

I love the Meeden ceramic pallets. There are a number of them (sizes and styles). Highly recommend them. They also do a water jar that has two sections so you can always keep one for clean water.

If I am not mistaken, the sponge on the little fan-out palettte removes for easy cleaning. I have the same one. It attaches via velcro. And i believe the paints are dye based.

I have that fan paint pallet i bought it a few years ago because Lindsay (frugal crafter) reviewed it. You definitely need to swatch it , but the colours are lovely. I have the Baohong hot press from Temu (usually use cold press but heard it's a bit rough) and I like it. I also have this water bucket for many years on my desk and I like it, I don't use the palette. What a coincidence, my son graduated 3 years ago as a radiographer! those pens looked cute 😍

Great video. Nice haul

Omg! We have the same pencil cases. I have all of them except for the large sky blue one 😁 we have the same taste hehehe

Just came across this channel, love the content! :)

Hello, and thank you. I have a tip regarding the pencil case. Remove the wrist strap. Use the clip on the wrist strap to gather the ring ends of the finger tabs of all of the zippers. You can then zip and unzip all tabs at one time. Best wishes to you and yours.

I use the blue expanding pencil case as a travel toilet beg…..holds heaps of 😊 plus I use one as a travel art set

I like the pastel colors of those pens, bags and fountain pen , such cute haul. I hope Temu will delivery to Europe someday.

I just got the same wooden palette from AliExpress and the mixing space fell off just like yours 😅 but I easily glued it back and I love the palette so much! Even though I didn't use it yet in an actual painting just played with it a bit 😂 And the huge blue pencil case looks so nice! Definitely will get one of those someday 😊

I'm all for buying clones. There is no reason for lamy to charge the price they do for what it is. It isn't like fountain pens are anywhere near the nib quality they used to be. When modern fountain pen companies start making nibs equal to the quality of vintage antique nibs then yeah, then people should get what they pay for, but as it stands now there isn't a single difference between lamy and jinhao. Both use the exact same resin, plastics etc.

Yes, very interesting. Thank you

For Temu I have heard that products are hit and miss plus false advertising is also there. You got lucky with your order. I loved your haul. Really excited for you to use more of the Baohong watercolor paper and give a review. Really looking forward to know how you find it

I appreciate that you avoided things that might be copies of other artist's designs; I know a lot of artists I know see their enamel pin and sticker designs showing up stolen on those types of sites. But it looks like a great source for supplies, and organization, and so on... I always need new ways to organize my countless art supplies, haha.

ps TEMU is an addiction for me 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Thank you for an great video. I just ordered this morning some Baohong Academy and Artists pads from Temu. My first time using them so was pleased to see you received your order OK. Would you mind saying how long it took to arrive please.

I love the pencil case. I got a case at Christmas for mine and now that my colored pencils are easier to see and access I find I use them a lot more. Have you noticed that with yours?

Love your 12 pencil folder i got 1 like it off Amazon £22 Was wondering what this site is like. Thank You Very Much For Sharing

Hi, great haul. Can I ask for the link of the tiny watercolor containers? Love them!

Thanks for sharing!

Hello from California! I know I’m late to this party. I have actually wrote a message here, on the day you posted this video, but something happened and my comment fell through the chairs. Anyway, regarding the 100% cotton Baohong watercolor paper: have you tried Jackson’s Art Supplies in England? Of course it would not be cheaper than Temu, but Jackson’s have sales all the time, on different supplies, that are worth a look. Great video, thank you for sharing your goodies with us.

I found their Baohang paper to be excellent

I know I am late to the party, but this video came into my feed and my curiosity got the better of me. I always struggle with hauls like this. The plastic, in plastic, in plastic always gets to me. And we all know that when we buy from places like Temu (and many, many other companies like it) the people that actually make the products are definitely not being paid a living wage and often have to work in really unhealthy circumstances. But then I wonder if other products we buy from more expensive stores aren't made in the exact same way, but repackaged to make them look more expensive.. I do try to look for fairtrade or European made products. But for a lot of things that is really difficult to find 🤷‍♀️ So now I (try to) not buy the cute little something-or-other anymore, because I honestly already have enough stuff, and I don't want to lay awake in bed feeling guilty anymore. But the more you think about the whole subject (where things come from/how they are made) the more complicated it gets. And you just end up with a big headache.. So, enjoy your haul! I think that is the best we can do. Get what we really need and actually USE it! ❤

HOw are those highlighters for ghosting and bleeding through on the other side of the page?

blessed! am witing for my first order to arrive. On thing is a holder my colored pencils. Not as many holders as the one you got. Wish I ha seen hat one. I have several hundred but ots of dupicates.

Thank you...

I also have ordered once at Temu , but mostly stuff i need i daily. I try to avoid waste and got stuff i wonst have like Color palettes with silicone lid, Plastic Mash Bags, a Bookbinding Set with needles and hole punsh set ( extremly useful) , a wonderful cotton pencil roll ( no smell ,cheap and pretty good quality) , baking paper for Air fryer and rack that fits into my cosori xl, withe Gel pens , Rice paper ( was a bit meh , i use it for crafting). I took careful consideration into it what i realy need , nothing needed to to be throm away. I set my 50 € goal and what i got was totaly ok. A few Household helpers where also in it. But its the one order, i never would buy fashion or stuff produced for the trash

Wow you got some bargains! fab video once again. x

This has got to be the most exciting site ever, everything is so cheap, you can go mad, as soon as I finish one order, I start my basket for the next, 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🥰🥰🥰

I love it, do you have links?

Now I want to buy stuff from Temu!

The paints you swatched are really nice do you have a link to those paints?

The only problem I have and heard of it is most of the supplies they have is a scam, half of them won’t be what they are described to be, while also if you download the app your information and data gets stolen and sold, I mean I would be more than glad to buy from temu or even wish they had a store here in America but, yeah your credit card information gets stolen and hack, it’s like 50/50 chance of you getting what you want and them getting everything from you

Really interesting haul. I was wondering how much the postage and packing was for these

Where do you find watercolors that will go in the little tins?

Don't forget to wax your zippers using a white candle, etc. for ease in movement.

Thank you for the video, very interestinf. I cant’t find the ceramic paletr in temu. Can you please give me the link??

🐨👍

Great finds could you link the items

Please can you link to the exact folder pencil organiser. I cant find it online

What is the different between the hot press and the cold press . First time I here coton paper….

I ordered already 3 times from TEMU, I like their products and the price of course. My 4th order is already in progress.....LOL

Liked the vlog, but mentioning of the exact prices would be helpfull.

Haven’t watched yet, I ordered a bunch of silicon stamps for junk journals… spent $100, so I’m hoping you will have some good things to say. The stamps were so CHEAP!😃

Wait, they have hot press watercolor paper? I'm in the States, and there is NOWHERE to get hot press here.Temu time for me!

When everything is packaged plastic in plastic

never heard of that company

This company, Temu, has had some ethical and customer service issues. They import, using a loophole in our customs laws that allows for avoidance of duties. They also may still be violating the provisions our government has put in place to put pressure on the Chinese government to stop the forced Uyghur labor.

Ive ordered 5 times from temu, NOTHING has come in little padded bags like yours its just all muďled together in one plastic bag

A quarter pan😂

I am absolutely sick of seeing this company everywhere. It's like an invasion..😮 I'm sticking to using and supporting small businesses. I'm unsubscribing from anyone who promotes them. How are they able to sell at such low prices?

I did a rudimentary search on this company, and would not purchase anything from it for moral reasons.
