00:08Hi friends! It's Jade from Sweet Softies here. I went on a little shopping spree on Amazon and
00:14got these adorable stationery and tools from M&G and I can't wait to share them with you.
00:21Let's take a look at these goodies! Alright, let's take a look at this adorable pencil sharpener.
00:27It's a cute little unicorn as you can see. You can open it up from the top and there you
00:34can stick in
00:34your pencil. I love that it protects the top and what's really awesome is that it actually has three
00:41different sharpening modes. So you can choose to make it extra thin and long and sharp or you can
00:48choose more of a blunt tip or you can go right in the middle. And you gotta love this but
00:56this
00:56automatic sharpener is charged through USB so you don't have to worry about getting an extra battery
01:04or things like that. You just plug it right in with the cable. Alright, let's go ahead and try it
01:10out.
01:16Wow, and see? When it just finished, it will push up the pencil and you have a lovely sharp tip
01:24ready to go.
01:26So, no more dull pencils again. Here's a super adorable calculator as well. I miss using one of these because
01:36it's so much easier than my laptop keypad and it makes cute clicky noises. And I just love the pink.
01:46Perfect for your cozy desk spot. I also got a pencil case and this one, as you can see, is
01:54quite spacious.
01:56I love that you can put so many things in here and it's got pockets and compartments. And here, an
02:03extra flat
02:03for your favorite and go-to pencils. And the back has its own little compartment as well.
02:16Absolutely perfect for everything you need. And look at that nifty handle. Pencils and things
02:22on the front and maybe my crochet hooks and crochet notions on the back.
02:29It's available in other colors as well, like this cute pink. And here is the set of paint sticks that
02:36I
02:36got. I am most excited about these because I've never tried anything like them before. And this is
02:43a set of, oh, look at that. So many colors. 36 colors. Okay. Let's go ahead and open it up.
02:55It's the size of a regular pencil. And it's even got a paint brush in here for you to use
03:03too.
03:04Let's see how this works. So, all right. I'm just going to do a quick little sketch so I can
03:09get
03:09started on the coloring portion.
03:24All right. My red panda kitty hybrid. Haven't done art in too long. That's, uh, I guess that's
03:30what you get when that happens. Okay. So now for some fun, let's try out these beautiful colors.
03:37Um, I'm just opening it up and looks like there's lovely pigment and it's so, so smooth. Okay. I'm
03:46going to start applying some color and we'll see how that looks. Wow. So it's very, very smooth
03:56and it almost feels kind of oily, like oil pastel.
04:02I really like how it glides on the paper. Let me see, um, what it looks like
04:10if I try some mixing. Here's a reddish color now that I'm going to try and mix a little bit
04:18into.
04:22Oh, I quite like that.
04:27You can, um, press down harder for definitely a darker gradient. I'll add in just a bit more color here.
04:37So I love that you can do pretty sharp lines if you wanted to.
04:48Maybe throw some color in here.
04:56If you love, um, seeing bold colors emerge from your art, I highly recommend this paint stick set.
05:06It's very, very fun to work with too.
05:10I, um, don't really know what I'm doing here in terms of drawing.
05:16Haven't done art in too long, but I can tell you that I'm having a good time.
05:22And I think that's, um, a pretty, it's a pretty big deal for me.
05:28So, very enjoyable experience here.
05:38Let's go ahead and see what happens when you combine water with these paints.
05:47Isn't that neat? It, it literally changes to watercolor.
05:54And, oh my goodness, I love how the colors are just mixing here.
06:02Oh, I'm in love with this paint set. Oh my gosh.
06:07It's not only very enjoyable and fun to work with, it's very easy to work with.
06:13Um, you don't have to be, um, an artist to enjoy this art process here.
06:21So, um, I'm going to use this art process here.
06:34Oh, and last, um, these pencils are so easy to use because once you, um, need more from the tip,
06:42you just have to turn and twist to get it to slide out more.
06:46And if I turn the other way, it'll retract.
06:51They've also got home decker pieces.
06:54This is a really cute little pencil holder.
06:57It can also double up as a hook holder.
07:04Super cute design.
07:06There's a pink one as well.
07:08This is the white version.
07:11Here's another art set.
07:13These are markers and there are 60 of them in this set.
07:24So it comes in these two holders here and we've got a little pamphlet.
07:32Ooh, so fun.
07:34I get to put on the different colors on the card.
07:37And it gives me a good look at what the colors will look like on paper.
07:42Let's do a few.
07:44So let me go ahead and grab this one.
07:47As you can see, there are two ends.
07:49A broad tip and also a thinner, um, fine tip.
07:59Oh, beautiful color.
08:01Very vibrant.
08:03Hmm.
08:04Let's try this later color.
08:09Beautiful.
08:13And what's really nice is that there's absolutely no bleeding.
08:17What's really nice is that there's a lot of paint that's really neat about the color.
08:20I'm going to put it in the mirror.
08:22This is the, I'm going to put it in the mirror.
08:38I'm going to put it in the mirror.
09:03Overall, a lovely experience with these markers.
09:06They're really vibrant and I love how they cover big spaces and also provide fine details.
