This is the first Paletteful post after I changed the format of those posts a bit, so I hope it’s going to be easier for both the readers and me to go through it! 🙂 I spoiled myself the surprise before the box arrived because I was super curious about the contents this month!

Revisiting my first paints – a horror story

So, in order to finish the painting properly and make it look consistent, I had to…

What is Paletteful Packs?
Paletteful Packs are subscription boxes of art supplies shipped to you every month and containing various kinds of art supplies, including markers, brushes, paints, paper, canvas etc. Basically everything you’d need to create an artwork.

You have 3 options of the Packs to choose from: Premier Paletteful Pack, Paletteful Petite Pack, Monthly Young Artist Paletteful Pack. Of course the Premier one is the full pack, the Petite one has less content than the Premier one and the Young Artist one has content curated specifically for children. Every Paletteful pack comes with several prompts for an artwork you can create with the supplies from the box if you…
