Darice 120-Piece Deluxe Art Set, Black

This is a review for Darice 131-Piece Premium Art Set – Art Supplies for Drawing, Painting and More in a Wood Case - Makes a Great Gift for Children and Adults. A few years ago, we found a cyber Monday deal for an art set like this one. I cannot remember the brand, but I do remember that it was ENTIRELY used by my children. My kids loved using all the different supplies and colors to make pictures, and they just loved the fact that the case could be closed and carried around like a briefcase. We decided this year to see if we could find another good deal on an art set, and we found the Darice 131 Piece Art Set. It looked entirely like what we had before, had lots of colors and different textures of coloring (marker, pencils, crayon, paint, etc.), and it was really a bargain. And, believe it or not, our kids were so excited to get the Darice kit and have been using it ever since Christmas. And yes, they carry it around still like a briefcase... Some notes on this set. First, given the price, don't expect super high quality supplies. They are good quality in my opinion, but this set is meant to be a low price, many piece set. Second, the case is a little flimsy. But again, see point one. Third, be careful when closing the case. If the latches aren't closed properly, you may have 131 art supplies on the floor... Overall, I love this product (or, rather, my kids love this product). I love the price. I will purchase this again when this kit is used up.

Muy bueno al niño le encantó

Bought this for my niece who loves to do art work. She loves it and uses it every single day the amount of stuff that comes in this is crazy for a great price under ten bucks. Includes markers, pencils, pastels, watercolors and plenty of accessories so they have plenty of options to chose from. Provides excellent way for kids and adults to experiment with a variety of artistic media. All in a black, snap-shut portable case good for when your on the go and the kids want to bring it with. PROS: Lots of options Easy to travel Never tired of one thing Cons: None

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my 7-year-old grandson. He loves to create art, and this was a perfect set for him. The picture of him with his wide eyes and pure joy is one of my favorites from the season. This kit has everything a young artist needs to stay busy for hours and the case makes it so easy to store the items and take it places. The pencils, colors, paints, and crayons are higher-than-average quality, and all of the accessories make it easy to do a complete project in one sitting without scavenging to find those little items you might need. The only complaint we have is one of the brads holding the handle onto the wooden (very well-built!) case came out within a day. I will probably buy another of these kits to save back for when my youngest grandson is old enough. The price is an amazing value.

I got this for my 6 1/2 year old granddaughter, and what a hit it was! She is artistically inclined, and has been "making do" with crayons and children's markers. This set really charmed her, and she was ready to abandon everything else just to get to use it right away. While I think it was intended for older people, it suits her perfectly, and she seems very capable of using it properly. The illustrations of the set were clear and unambiguous, and made it easy to decide to buy this art set. I'm very pleased with the quality of the set, and the service and delivery were quite prompt. This is a very good quality set, worthy of an adult, but delightful for a child as well.

Bought as a gift, I should buy us one too. It was very nice. I would recommend this to anyone for sure. Good deal. Hope my review helped you some.

OK, this is definitely for kids... It's poor quality - but that's not surprising considering the very low price. But a few things are annoying: The oil pastels and the crayons are made of the exact same material. Both are poorly made, and as someone else here mentioned, the crayons are inferior to Crayola crayons. So, instead of providing the same crayons in a different shape and labeling them "oil pastels" (cause they're definitely NOT oil pastels), they could have simply provided a wider range of colors for crayons. Secondly, the watercolor are crap... really crap. Don't even get me started on those. On the brighter side though, the markers are quite good. They are perfect for small hands and the colors are bright. Overall, this is a gift for a child who's just beginning art and wants to try different materials - and as a gift it looks nice. But after using a while, you'll want to graduate to better quality materials, like Crayola.

Our family has a lot of children and sooner or later they all visit my house. I even get to homeschool some of them! It's always a challenge when they're cooped up in my small house for a day while it rains or snows or any other inclement weather reasons to play inside. I finally got several of these art sets because they cover the pencils, crayons, paint...you name it, the set has it. It closes and can be put away and the kids LOVE IT! They grab their color books, tracing paper, construction paper and off they go to hours of indoor fun! By the end of the day, they have presents for everyone and I have new art for my refrigerator door! Kids range from age 6 to teenagers...they all play with their art set! A great investment in the children in my life...well worth any price but these sets are even reasonably priced.

le encanto el regalos mi sobrino por el precio me salio regalado, son de muy buena calidad los colores y crayones excelente quería comprar mas pero como solo se podia 1 por cuenta ni modo

Bought for for my 3 year old. He loves it He doesn't know good or bad quality. Neither do I really when it comes to arts but everything looks very nice and high quality

姪っ子の誕生日に買いました。色、種類、共に大変豊富なのでとても喜んでくれました。

Best drawing kit. My daughter was so happy when i got her this

Tiene muchos colores para diferentes texturas y obras de arte, desde los pequeños hasta los adultos. Es fácil de transportar o de colocar en la casa y todo cabe en un mismo lugar. Está mucho más económico que otras opciones y las pinturas con buena calidad.
