- Опубліковано 18 гру 2022
- Today I am sharing/reviewing The Color Cube system designed by @SarahRenaeClark She did an AMAZING job designing this set of 500 color palettes in the 2 cute boxes. I am an analog girl so I was so excited to see that she made a printed tool to go with her digital Color Catalog but they can be used on their own as well. You can see it all here: sarahrenaeclar...

We can really see the possibilities there! Artist's color is really a 3-dimensional concept, with the gray scale in the center, and every color from neutral to bright radiating out from that center. This looks like it does a great job of giving quick reference for a wide palette, including adjacent colors, complements, and triadic combinations. So glad you showed this!
Maybe you can help her get the word out and sell this! She really is a fabulous artist.
Wouldn't it be great if Blick stocked it!
@@thefrugalcrafterI would love it if Blick stocked these products!! 💕
There are many many resources like this available for free on Pantone, and some that people have created as well.
@@BelindaShort I've used several on Pinterest for different things, but having them in hand is going to be great.
This set is FANTASTIC if you are a quilter! The heartache & frustration of choosing colors in fabric is exactly the same as when choosing pencils or any other art medium. These are probably my most used objects in my studio! :)
I totally agree!
Also for crochers and knitters.
And home decorating and also clothing! So many uses
I'm thinking about getting it for my mending and embroidery projects.
One reason to get both physical AND digital is that you can quickly scroll through the digital version to find what you might want, then easily pull the physical card. Sometimes flipping through a bunch of cards one by one is kind of tedious and overwhelming. Such an awesome product!
When I saw you unbox this earlier this week, I had to order it. OMG. This is such a fantastic product. Sarah put so much work and thought into this. I ordered the bundle of physical and digital versions. It was such a good deal. My cubes shipped today. These are so amazing. My Christmas present to me. I also love being able to support a fellow creative.
Enjoy!
I am debating the physical or digital as the bundle, although so much in it is a lot for me at the moment as I have other stuff to buy. I’m not sure if I buy the digital I will still want the physical. I also noticed that the physical appears to show a shed either side on the reverse of the card whereas I don’t see that on the digital version 🤔 I really can’t decide!
@@traceybartlam7737 It's really difficult to say which is more useful/better as a standalone product. The physical boxes and cards are just gorgeous. I think they are most useful for random pulls of a color palette and there's something about having a physical card in your hand. You are correct, the digital version does not show the tint and shade of each color. The digital versions are great as they are searchable and you can scroll through everything quickly and see multiple palettes at a glance. So convenient. I guess it depends on the individual and how one works. I was fortunate that I could purchase both the boxes and the digital versions including the Companion media documents. If I was forced to choose one, I would probably choose the digital version. I think they are the most versatile for me but those color cube boxes sure look great in the art room. 😊
To be honest, I can see this helping with cardmaking as well. I use patterned paper scraps a lot, and struggle sometimes to match colors. I have a good eye for matching shades and tints within a single color, but I sometimes struggle with color harmonies, especially when a pattern is busy. ❤️
Great idea!
YES, YES, YES....Iwas thinking this same thought, too.😃
Lindsay, you have been hands down my best teacher. You were one of the first artists who encouraged me to ask, "Do I need? Would I use it? Do I already have something that will do this?". If it wasn't for you, I would probably buy this product because it's so cool and so pretty! But the truth is... I don't need it. I wouldn't use it. And I do already have something that will do this for me.
Perfect:) no point getting something you wont use:)
I have been on the fence about the color boxes but your excitement confirmed what I was feeling. Now I have to wait for the order! Thanks Lindsay
Hope you enjoy it!
Sarah is from Melbourne Australia, I met her last year,lovely lady. I bought the whole set and I use it for polymer clay, gelli printing this was a game changer for the prints I’ve pulled. Also would help with beading Color choices.
I wanted her catalog for a long time, but I wanted something tangible. Printing it myself would be a huge use of ink and paper, not to mention color shifts in inks. I kept hoping she'd put the catalog into a book. But these are even better. I can carry/hold a single card rather than trying to keep a book page open. I only have volume 1, I'd really like to get the second box as well.
They are so helpful when I feel like I'm using the same color palettes in my art. And they help with inspiration when I'm in the mood to art but can't figure out what I want to do.
I immediately jumped on the bandwagon when Sarah offered these color cubes and now I use the color catalog/color companion and color cubes together. I use the color catalog to identify the color palette and then I pull the color cube card and attach it to my project. I prefer using the card for reference than useing a digital device to reference. The quality of the cards just can't be beat and are worth every penny. Also, the color cubes themselves are stunning pieces of art...and that makes it easy for me to remember to use them!
I agree! Digital is kinda out of sight, out of mind and I can forget i have it. Printed is righ there!
Don't forget the Color Companion. SO useful for my Prismacolors, Copics, and so forth. I have the suite, and love mine. So much fun!
I struggle color matching to an electronic device so I think the printed cards in the cubes would be helpful. Especially if you put a piece of clear plastic over the card to lay the paint on top of to mix.
Yes and picking glaze colors because sometimes I forget what it is supposed to look like while I am painting 😆
@@thefrugalcrafter I think we're all looking forward to seeing how that bean pot comes out!
Yes digital images are backlit, seems like it might change the color
Also, if you order the full color suite, it comes with like 10 companions- so whatever pencils or markers you use, she has gone through and color matched each card to dozens of pencil and marker sets. I love it!
I'd never use them but it's always lovely to hear you so enthusiastic about anything :)
Can you imagine all the work involved in compiling these!
I can't but im glad she did!
Thanks for featuring the Color Cubes, Lindsay. I cannot wait to get them! For now, I have the Digital version on my phone so I can use it to pick out yarns or paints in-person. The digital version is totally worth having for on-the-go and Highly recommend to everyone to get Both when you order. Sarah Renae is a professional colorist :) and her Yearly Planner is Boss!!
It's such a good deal to grab the bundle!
You mentioned interior design and immediately I thought of all the times at the paint store/dept I have been sorely disappointed by what the paint companies offer in their brochures. This is golden for that kind of thing alone.
It is!
Color Cube gives me the Nostalgia Feels!
I had the set of US History cards, my mom had the Betty Crocker. I LOVED those sets, so exciting to get them in the mail.
And the wildlife treasury cards!
My sister in law started something like this about 6 years ago and dropped it. Wow, this is so super great! All the pics, colors & info are great! Love love love it!!!
These are so gorgeous! The amount of work that must have gone into creating these is mind blowing! The physical cards are such high quality too! They are just astounding! Even the boxes alone are pieces of art!
I was eyeing the coloring catalog's for years. i bought the whole package. The best gift I bought for myself and my hobby's in the past year! It makes it so much easier to just color.. and not stress about colors..but just shadows and shades.
Nice!
This is a premium product and Sarah has been working on and refining this collection for years now! I am not sure how much better she can get it! I first saw it on Baylee Jae’s channel and she got the digital version as shipping from Australia took a very long time and she just printed page after page and created a binder with the entire collection within! So to have them sourced in the US and the ability to ship them from a more centralized hub! Thank you for sharing your opinions and ideas about this amazing product!
All versions are great! Sarah really went above and beyond
This can really bring my card making to a new level! This is exciting as I love coloring my stamped images and struggle with my paper hoard :) Thanks for showing this!!
You are so welcome!
This is a great tool indeed. As a digital artist, it TRULY helps having a physical companion for the color catalogue, since seeing what colors actually look like on print gives me quite the peace of mind! Colors on a monitor do not always translate the way we think they will once printed. This is frustration-proof hahahaha!
This is the combination of lots of work and lots of beautiful printing. I love things still that are in physical form rather than on the computer. It looks like a wonderful product and I appreciate you showing us. I love color too!
I totally agree!
I follow Sarah Renae Clark, and had debated purchasing the Color Catalog (like you, I like hardcopy), and when I found out she was coming out with the Color Cubes, I preordered the cubes along with the whole bundled package. I don't know how many times I couldn't think of which colors to use, or have ruined a coloring page with the wrong color combos. These cubes are great!
I just ordered the full set of everything thru your link, and I can't wait to get them! From choosing an outfit and accessories to card making, painting, to making journals, this will be well loved, since I never trust myself choosing colors! I tend to stick to boring things I know will work, when I'm wanting to use something different, but don't know if it "goes!" I'm just about to try and download the digital parts. A little worried, as I'm not techie, but I love that one person can download to 10 devices, as I understand, since I'm always worried about crashes. Thanks for letting us know about this awesome product I'd never heard of! I love the digital option for having anywhere, but I'm a printed paper, hold the real thing in my hands sort of girl, so having both options is great! Thanks, Lindsay!💙
Enjoy!
I used to think that I didn't need help choosing colors. HA! I bought the whole bundle because I liked the look of it, but still didn't think I would use it much. Double HA! It is wonderful. I use the digital version to select the palette I want as it is so quick and easy to browse through. Then I get the physical card to use as a reference. I use the companion to find the right pencils to match the colours easily. I can certainly do all this on my own, but it would take me a long time and include some amount of frustration. With the colour catalog, it is FAST AND EASY! I love it!
I've had the digital versions for over a year and they are really fun to use. The variety is amazing!
I can see these help with color choices on the really complex crocheted, layered flower squares.
Thanks for your enthusiastic review. Definitely adding it to my wish list for 2023. I love Sarah’s reviews as well. She is very methodical and provides in-depth reviews and like you is entertaining to listen to. Have fun with your new colour blocks.
You can’t make an artist happier than colors!
I am VERY colour challenged. I am not an artist at all, but very much a creative and I have to create something every day. I also have aphantasia (I have no minds eye, when I close my eyes and try to imagine something, all I see is black). Thus, one of the most challenging things for me is putting colours together for things I want to create. Finding this set is absolutely amazing for me. I don't have to think, or worry about whether or not the palette works. It is an incredible tool. I have ordered Sarah's bundle (both digital and the cubes) and cannot wait for it to arrive. Sooooo excited.
Enjoy!
I have the digital version and have been using it for a few years! One way I use it is to pick out color schemes for my quilts. I can then design them in Electric Quilt 8 and EQ8 has this super cool feature where it will match the colors you use on your screen with actual fabric basics. So I can go from Color Catalog palette > designed quilt > the names and exact amounts of fabrics to order. I LOVE IT!! Also Sarah Renae Clark just seems like such a sweetie pie that I am happy to throw some cash at her!
Wow, cool! Sarah is such a nice lady.
I got my set for drawing/coloring BUT I just flipped through to select yarn colors for an Afghan instant to crochet. Double win!
I must say I’ve ordered the PDF but not the physical boxes. Jennifer McGuire did a review and now you! It’s a thing.
I’m so in love with the digital version I’m going to order the boxes as well! Thanks for your review.
Enjoy!
I'm new to adult coloring and trying to pick colors is the hardest part for me. I'm putting these cubes on my wish list.
It's such a brilliant product and program! Even though I've painted for over 20 years, there are times that I still could use help coordinating complementary colour palettes and this is a valuable resource for every artist! ❤️👏🏻❤️
I agree!
I purchased the cube bundle. Thanks for the review and all the ideas!
I ordered these - the bundle & they have already shipped. It's not that I have a shortage of ideas - with all the great tutorials out there in UA-cam land there is never a shortage. But I don't always have my phone or tablet and sometimes it would be nice to grab my pencils with a sketch book and just sit outside (in the warmer weather of course - not like today when it is -31 degrees celsius...LOL) with a small card and sketch or draw. I really think these will be marvellous.
My thoughts exactly!
I got the whole bundel, I love it! I use it a lot for my marker sketchbook. And I can see which ohuhus match best. 😊
Perfect!
Thanks for another amazing video and review Lindsay! It’s so true that as a crafter, color combinations and image ideas can be such a struggle! For years I’ve saved color combo ideas on Pinterest along with pre colored copic images! But finding them isn’t easy because I have so many saved! Plus, like you I like a physical image! I could see this as a real plus also as I’m now in my 50’s, and have preconceived color combo’s but wish for more modern views of color! It’s funny how my dentist office looks dated to the 80’s because of the colors they have together! There isn’t anything wrong with the colors but the dentist was talking to me about it and I suggested changing at least one of the colors like the paint on the walls to reflect a modern look! Also we all have our favorite colors but have those maybe we wish to branch out to. I struggle with reds for Christmas since I don’t use it a lot, along with oranges for fall and Halloween. So I could see that cube as a very useful tool! 🥳😉
You are so right!
Total impulse purchase. Right now. Boom. Merry Christmas to me. 🤣 Seriously, I've been struggling with ways to permeate The Block. Thanks for sharing such a fun and interactive find!
Good for you! Merry Christmas!
These are so cool! You know what? They totally remind me of paint sample cards at the big box hardware stores! Great idea to use the color swatches for images rather than rooms. Love it!!
Mine just came in and I am LOVING them!
Yay!
I WANT IT ALL!! i struggle with color palettes in my many projects: interiors, quilts, cards, and more. Digital images are often not quite right. Although I appreciate the color codes to help reproduce the colors. There is only one problem...... it is not in my budget right now.
They are a splurge for sure!
Good for embroidery artists to!
I bought these just recently and love them❤. By complete serendipity then I found your 30min course.. which im LOVING.😊. For those of us that love to be able to hold the product rather than digital, it's excellent. It's already helped my block...and it's like an artist's box of candies. Worth every cent.
I have a board of pallettes in pinterest but I think I'll use this more.
Lindsay..if you have trouble loading the box...I found it easier to put the cards back in the middle, not on the edges. They fall in more easily that way and don't snag on the edges 👍
I’ve purchased the physical & digital versions. I don’t like messing around with digital items but I’ve found that the system is more functional as a package. I absolutely love it. I’m one of those people who has difficulty choosing colors. There’s a lot of in-depth YT videos to help people better understand how these products interact. I think this is worth every penny.
Thanks for sharing!
I just got my Color Cube Full set this last week and I love it.. It for sure gets the creative juices flowing. Just seeing the colors and combos give me so many ideas on things to color and keeping a limited palette. I like the digital version to search and find the colors i want and the cards are great to have on the desk next to what im drawing so I dont have to have my iphone or ipad next to where I'm drawing. I would like to see you do another drawing using a random card and with Alcohol markers.
Will do!
Omg, thank you for this! Amazing. Sarah is awesome, so meticulous in her work! I have to get a set.
You are so welcome!
I really was into coloring books and whatnot prior to becoming obsessed with watercolors and this was something that was amazing that I wanted to try but I knew that if it was digital I'd never use it and I didn't know there was a physical form of them! These are going to be a need for me soon. I've always been color/ color scheme challenged and her listing specific colors for pencils would be so helpful for me. I think these are such a great deal and honestly I think they're worth more than they sell for she did an amazing job and like you said I can't think of anything else that could be improved upon. Thanks for sharing. Have a great night
Even for card making, knitting, crochet, junk journalling, embroidery, patchwork! This is an amazing tool and I am looking at getting it soon, as I think it's the best crafting investment ever!
It's so handy!
It is impressive. I think I would want the digital and printed. I could use the digital to browse and select a picture/pallet , then use the printed cards while working. The color equivalent charts for the various pencil brands would be wonderful to quickly pick the correct pencil for the palette./project. I would definitely want them all!! 😊
She had a money saving bundle:)
Sooo glad you are reviewing these. I’m going to purchase them and the digital ones.
I ordered these this morning after seeing your oil pastel video. So excited. I hope you got credit. This looks amazing and can't get over the amount of work this must have been!
Thanks! You will love them!
Just saw this video... and of course, I love it but it was hilarious watching you say how excited you were .... LIKE WE COULD NOT TELL ...... I'm rolling watching you be so giddy.... both were great.... Thanks Lindsay
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for all of your wonderful reviews, demos and tutorials. I purchased the full color suite (such a great value) and received the cubes about a month ago. I can't even imagine the amount of work that has gone into the production. Beautiful product that I can see using for all mediums. I think the digital version is very cool but I love to have the cards for that physical need. I haven't had the chance to do more than look at them. Actually I did start a coloring page using the digital version that is turning out very nice so far. I plan to do the oil pastel painting that you did using these. I've never used oil pastels so I will follow the tutorial you have on Critique Club. After the 1st I'll be digging in. You're so talented and inspiring. I'm glad you're feeling better.
Thank you!
These are going on my wishlist.
My want monster has been desensitized by the overload of art supplies. But this is a totally different story...*drool* This is so cool.
I have both sets and they are a great companion to Sarah’s colour catalog
Thanks so much for showing these Lindsay! I love using big pops of color on my greeting cards but I've always had difficulty with the color wheel and I feel like these would work much better for me. Running over to the website now :).
Enjoy!
I bought the digital when you last reviewed Sarah’s colour catalog and I too was as happy as you when Sarah came out with the cubes . I pre ordered as soon as I could . There is something to be said about so much colour arriving in the mail all at once . I too geeked out at these gorgeous cards . They are so worth it . Great review 👍🏻❤️
Own the cubes and love them, Sarah also has companion guides for many of the Colour pencil brands. So for each card the guide tells you which pencil matches the colour!
These are great to decide what color palette to use to to s coloring book page!
Totally!
This is amazing. While I am digital All the way (think kindle over actual books) but this set I want the actual boxes 😍😍😍 Sarah did an amazing job! Inspirational!
After watching your unboxing I was pretty sure that I was going to purchase this for my job (marketing manager/graphic designer) and also for personal use. I did a UA-cam search and watched at least 8 other unboxing videos of this product. Of all of the unboxing I watched, yours was the most well done and the most informative. So I came back this evening and used your affiliate link to purchase the full collection. I do hope you will receive credit for it because you certainly deserve it. Your videos are always so well done and I appreciate that! Others need to watch your videos to learn how it’s done and then do their homework on products that they’re planning to unbox on video. Thank you again for making such a well informed video on this product!
Aww, so kind of you:) thanks!
Wonderful review, thank you. ☀️
You are so welcome!
Your sense of homour is great! You had me giggling. I love your tea/coffee cup painting. I am going to search to watch that video. I would love to see you do more of these. Agreed Sarah did an incredible job. Thank you for the fun and informative video.
I've watched alot of her videos. I didn't know how she acquired her catalog. I'd love to get these products. Her background wall attracted me because I zentngle and love drawing patterns mandalas etc. I'm color challenged and I tried color wheels but this system seems so expansive and easy to comprehend.
I am going to use it for Needle felting , Coloring ,Card making , coloring and painting . thank you for the review , Happy Crafting xxxxxx
Have fun!
@@thefrugalcrafter 🥰
I'm trying to decide digital or cards. I loved them when you showed them last week. I'm also a quilter and these would be excellent for that! Most quilters struggle when they don't buy from one fabric collection. I need to get past the holidays before I spend anymore on ME LOL
She does have a bundle with a digital version you could have on a phone or tablet and take to the store with you when you shop. Or you could just get the digital version. You really can't go wrong.
I want this so much!
I'm so excited to watch this!! I got these and they are GORGEOUS and the catalog is so helpful. I have a bunch of paintings planned using these.
Also, the cubes themselves have a permanent spot on my studio desk. ❤
They are a nice decoration!
L♡ve em and excited to order mine soon.
She did this awesome review on a pencil sharpener I just love it. Ordered it seriously great. Enjoy her. Don't do adult coloring anymore but, do more clay stuff that will also be great for your pottery.
Saw this one lady use stocking cool stockings hose like fishnets other patterns on her pottery and she glazed it came out so amazing look wise. It's a video on UA-cam the patterns were very interesting. Can see this being very handy and useful for many projects.
Heard your remark on that bean pot you made for your husband handmade pottery is amazing. There truly is no buying that from another store. Thanks for sharing.
I just got mine in! Love these!! Great idea!
Next I want a hard bound book printed. I hear Barnes and Noble printing does that.
That's a great idea!
I ordered the physical cubes. I think this will be a GREAT inspiration for me, as I am recently getting back into drawing and watercolor/gouache and struggle with what I want to paint on a given day. I intend to use the cards as "prompts". I had a book that was similar several years ago from a graphic design class, but I have no idea what happened to that book.
Your excitement is contagious! I wii be looking at her site! Thanks so much Lindsay
I just bought this and mine is coming today. I was interested in the original PDF version, but I wished then she had a physical set. When she did release this, I then started thinking I didn't need it and I just needed to learn color theory (which is probably still true). But I have backflipped yet again and realized that these cards will help create decisions for me and make it much easier to pick the perfect palette. I think as artists, we have enough decisions to make, that if we can take away some of the process of choosing, we can focus on actually creating instead. You are making me want the digital version now though. I prefer a card to sit next to me on a desk, but the digital is great to find things easily and using the color search function.
Pretty awesome! I think the digital would be easier. I'd like the boxes better if design was more like the old recipe boxes that the cards slanted back so you could flip foward one at a time to see without having to take out of box🤷😁
These are great for composition, color, and values. Yes, get stale. Great learning tool and fun! The color palettes are so gorgeous. We can use our imagination like Floozy sketchbook paintings. Also need inspiration in the winter months. Thanks Lindsay 💕 Checking this out!💕
Thanks so much!
Hello Lindsay, I really enjoyed your review of Sarah's colour cubes, I follow her channel as well. It's fun to watch your excitement about a product that is so good. 😊
Definitely an amazing idea and very useful. The boxes are really pretty, too! Thanks for reviewing these.
I saw this on Sarah's channel and this confirms what I thought. Color combination has always been a challenge for me. I just found a Christmas present for myself.
Enjoy!
Hey Lindsay - love your channel! This is the first time I've commented on a video - I'm more of a lurker. :) I have both the physical and digital versions of Sarah's Colour Catalogs and I LOVE them! I'm a chemistry instructor by trade and always thought that I didn't have an artistic bone in my body. I've recently (at 50 :)) started to try to develop some "artistic bones" and the Colour Catalog from Sarah has helped me a TON. It's helping to train my eyes to see colour the way an artistic person does. It's wonderful that this product can excite and inspire both a total newbie (me) and a professional (you). That's something that's rare and wonderful, I think. Thank you for all you do for the art and craft community!
What an awesome recommendation! I hope Sarah reads this!
On my list for next purchase - my daughter and I will both get so much use out of this ! Might take till Valentine’s Day but what a gift for that ;)
Better than chocolate!
Mine arrived today! Such an awesome tool. Sales of these are going to explode. Such a good to get all at once. TFS!
Bought both digital volumes and the companion last year and really love them - especially having the Ohuhu and Prismacolor info. Even though I printed them out.. definitely can't wait to order these cubes because seems that they'll be easier (and more reliable) to use then my printed catalogs. Plus your excitement about them is definitely making me want them more. 😂
Might be cheaper considering printer ink.
This could be used in designing spaces in your home too! The uses are endless!
Yes!
I wish the box was a little longer so you had room to flip through the cards. I suppose you could take them out and put them in something else, but the box is so pretty!
That's a great idea!
Love the concept of this… I added it to my someday/maybe list… I definitely want the full collection… will use your link when it comes off the list and into my new budget. Thanks for sharing your excitement over this fun tool…have a wonderful weekend 🙂
Gotta love that!
There's another thing this would be so handy to have it for....I upcycle clothing and sell on Etsy and this would help to immediately have colors that go well together.
Yes!
This is a great idea for crochers and knitters.
Patty- I would use this with my coloring, painting, patterns for my needlework etc. There's no end. Thank you for showing this. I didn't realize it was so inexpensive. I'm going to check this out.
My mind is just buzzing with the possibilities for using this system. OMG - capsule wardrobe! Thank you so much for sharing this with us! Merry Christmas 🎄
They'd make a great Mother's Day present too! (Hoping my kids see it. lol)
Oh yes!
You are dangerous for my budget. :-) Just ordered these and can't wait. I ordered the Sanjoki markers after watching that video and then decided to order them for 3 of my grandkids for Xmas (and of course paper to go with them) and your class on alcohol markers for me. They were so excited! 2 of them live next door and we are going to have "art classes" with the markers this spring semester. But, if I can keep the kids interested in art as they move into their teens and beyond, it will be amazing.
I saw a brief look at these by Jennifer McGuire with her favorite crafty gift items and it caught my attention then. But this review of yours exposes the value in greater form. I definitely agree with the inspiration of having so many lovely pictures to practice drawing, pastels, you name it. I got the bundle as a Christmas present for myself :) Thanks for the review.
lol it's sooo pretty!!! lots of inspiration.
I am so glad you did a more in depth review of this. I can really see the use of the downloadable version of it. I wanted the cubes, but now I want it all. Am saving up for the whole shebang. I plan to also use it for color pallets for fancy nail polish painting. (Heh yet another hobby I have.)
