    Just founds this video and very helpful! I love my Zigs, but the container is not the best. Saw this one through you link to Amazon, so will give it a try!

      I've been using the case for over a year now and I still love it.

    Hi there... so excited...just finished your video..zipped over to Amazon & purchased set of 80 AND the case...arrives Wed-am so super excited...I've never used any colored pens-water colored or otherwise....I'm probably dreaming thinking I can do this...ha...but I'm going to give it a try...and this video was super full of great info. Thanks! YAY...

    I enjoyed this review. You are really fun! I have owned these pens for over a year and store them in the container Jen M. recommended but I really like this way of storing them. Makes it easy to travel with. I love lawn fawn and saw you use a lot of it so I had to subscribe.

    • @Becomingfab

      Thanks Patricia. Have you had to replace any of your markers yet?
      And thanks for subscribing. I'm happy to meet another Lawn Fawn lover.

      I'll be honest and say I don't use them very often. I love my copics and use them constantly. I have a lot of reinkers and my collection is large. If I didn't have to work full time and watch my grandson and help out my aging parents, I would have more time to play with them. I had to have them, but my main love is copics. Some day I anticipate being able to play with them more.

    • @Becomingfab
      @Becomingfab  7 років тому

      I completely understand. I'm like that with my Copics too. They're a first love type of thing lol

    Thanks for sharing this review. I recently purchased some watercolor brushes, I believe they are the M&G signme brand. Only played with them a little but they don't blend like these. Do you have any videos on the other brand of Japanese pens you mentioned?

    • @Becomingfab
      @Becomingfab  7 років тому

      Hey, Tara. I have the Sai Watercolor brushes. I didn't do a review video on them but I've done a couple of videos using them. They blend okay. Not as good as the Zig tho. Here are the links:

      Thanks Tranae!! I found a great deal on amazon and actually purchased the Zig 48 ct markers today all because I watched this video last night. I should send you the bill, you enabler you...Lol! Naw but seriously thanks for sharing, I can't wait to get them tomorrow and start playing! Please do more videos on using them as I am a total beginner when it comes to stamping and coloring. I think I could learn a lot from you, plus I just love your personality and corny jokes, makes me smile every time!

    Hello dear Lindsey . I am not an Artist but wanted to try to color so I purchased those pens a while ago . I still did not get a chance to even open them . I was wondering do they have expiration time ? Would they dry ? Thank you so much I would greatly appreciate your answer .

  • @pamelasertich9850
    @pamelasertich9850 7 років тому +1

    I tried making labels and laminating them and wrapping that around the marker. That sucked as well. This definitely fits for me. Do the markers come out easily? Thanks

    • @Becomingfab
      @Becomingfab  7 років тому

      The binder has a firm hold but not so tight that it's hard to get them out. Plus it makes them easy to travel with.

  • @flute1177

    Should these markers be stored flat (horizontally) or can they be stored upright? And if upright, should the tip be up or down?

    • @Becomingfab
      @Becomingfab  4 роки тому

      Flute117 they can be stored either way. I store mine upright with the tips down.

    Thanks for the review. These are on my list of things to buy so it's nice to see another positive review. I've seen a couple of places (Sandy Allnock is the only one I can remember now) that have said to store these upside down. Have you heard this?

    • @Becomingfab
      @Becomingfab  7 років тому

      Storing them upside down wouldn't hurt them but I don't. Sandy is pretty knowledgeable when it comes to art supplies so I would trust her.
      And Amazon has a good deal if you're buying the complete set.

    You are a girl after my own heart! I just got a set of these and what's the first thing I do? Try to figure out how to store them! I got a case similar to yours from Amazon 😊. Great video! Thanks!

    • @Becomingfab
      @Becomingfab  6 років тому

      Have fun with your brushes. You're going to love them.

  • @strawbrryfld1
    @strawbrryfld1 6 років тому

    I have the same set and can't agree MORE with you the box doesn't work. I had to get a case too ! It is very similar to your case. I have to do the same with my prismacolor pencils. I need to get a case for my faber castell polychromo s too.

  • @daughteroftheking4266
    @daughteroftheking4266 7 років тому +2

    I love my zigs and I couldn't agree more that the container that they come in sucks! Can you please tell me the name of the storage unit you bought off amazon, I'm having a hard time finding it. Tfs

    • @Becomingfab
      @Becomingfab  7 років тому +2

      It's the Global Art Canvas 120 Pencil Case. Here's the link. amzn.to/2oEI4LH

    OMG. I'm with you. I am so not about painting 80 little dots and sticking them on the ends of markers. My guess is Jennifer has a slave doing that crap for her. Your system is for REAL. I'm buying that pencil case. It makes absolute sense for normal people. This is a great video. I"m a new subscriber. Getting the markers for my birthday today.

    • @Becomingfab
      @Becomingfab  6 років тому

      Barbara Parker Happy Birthday 🎈🎉🎂. You're going to really enjoy your brushes. And the case makes them very easy to use. Adding dots to the end was just unrealistic for me. I'm way too lazy for that 😂

  • @MarysMaamCave
    @MarysMaamCave 7 років тому +1

    I bought the 60 set and regret not buying the 80. I also followed all of the tips on Jennifer's blog and like you, also gave up after gluing the samples on the lid and did not follow up with glossy accents. Swatching them and making the dots to glue on the lid took hours by itself and I was over it by the end LOL! I also bought the square she recommended, that cube thing, and do not like it. I like to store markers on the side and not upright, and putting the cube sideways, the markers fall out a lot more easily than I expected.

    • @Becomingfab
      @Becomingfab  7 років тому +1

      Trying to make the swatches for these markers was so tedious. 😕 I really like using the Global Art Canvas Pencil Case. It works really well. Here the link to it: amzn.to/2oEI4LH
      BTW... you can get the other 20 brushes individually. It costs a little more but it might be worth it to finish your collection.

    • @MarysMaamCave
      @MarysMaamCave 7 років тому

      Becoming Fab thanks for the link! I definitely plan to round out my missing colors, at least most of them!

  • @strawbrryfld1
    @strawbrryfld1 7 років тому

    THIS is so funny ! I did the EXACT same thing when I got mine !!!! THAT BOX...... NOT !!!! THIS is funny BECAUSE I BOUGHT THE SAME STYLE of storage case ! AND ....I ALSO bought MY CASE on AMAZON !!!

    • @Becomingfab

      Isn't this case awesome... it works very well with the Zig.

      I'm really loving these so far. They also have some with regular marker nibs but I haven't tried them.

  • @tinekim1053
    @tinekim1053 7 років тому

    what I hate about Zig Clean is that when you write sometging, the color isnt solid, you know what I mean? the ink is not pure. its kinda hard to explain but please understand😭( just like 7:00 -7:10 I really need advices from the users😂 I do calligraphies. and you also do. But you know when you write letters isnt it bad? I really want this because it is a legit brush. but this just made me disappointed 💔 AND! one last thing! does it bleed? yeah, THANKS!!!!!!!😊

    • @Becomingfab
      @Becomingfab  7 років тому

      Hey Tine. I completely understand what you’re talking about. The pigment is transparent. If you want something opaque consider using ink with a round brush. I use watercolor paper or mixed media paper with my brushes so I haven’t experienced bleeding. Not sure how it holds up on regular paper.
