DecoArt Crafter’s Acrylic Pastels Paint Set, 18 (2 fl oz/59 ml) Assorted Matte Finish Colors, DIY Arts And Crafts Acrylic Paint, 36 Fl Oz(Pack of 1)

These paints all complement each other and are the softest colors. The quality is excellent for most crafts. Not translucent. Used them for decorating terra cotta pots for my daughter’s birthday and they were perfect.

Such nice colors and as always from this company, great quality craft paint.

Organizing a crafting session with my niece, these paints brought a burst of color and creativity into our afternoon as we explored various surfaces to make custom decorations and artwork that brightened our space and filled the room with laughter and excitement. Starting with terra cotta pots for some fresh plant displays, the smooth and vibrant application allowed us to blend colors effortlessly and layer designs that turned simple items into striking pieces of decor, while the quick-drying formula kept the momentum going and avoided any accidental smudging or interruptions. As we moved on to canvas boards, the matte finish and wide range of colors made it easy to experiment with bold patterns and subtle gradients, creating pieces we proudly displayed in the living room after finishing. The water-based formula meant cleanup was hassle-free, letting us focus on enjoying the process without worrying about stains or messes, and the non-toxic ingredients ensured it was safe for all ages, making the experience worry-free and fun from start to finish. Whether we were stamping, sponging, or brushing, these paints offered endless versatility that inspired us to keep imagining new projects and ideas, leaving us both with a sense of satisfaction and a collection of vibrant creations that we couldn’t wait to show off to friends and family.

I ordered the DecoArt crafter’s acrylic pastels paint set with 18 2fl oz bottles of craft paint to add to our crafting paints. My wife absolutely loves this color selection for working on Easter craft projects. It really gives you a great selection of pastel colors for several sets of Easter wooden eggs we still need finish as well as several larger projects that she has to finish for Easter decorations. The paint works and goes on well on the wood projects we have used them on so far and we are really happy with the quality and coverage of the paints.

I am very pleased with the quality, opacity, and pigmentation of these paints. They are vibrant and easy to work with and the drying time is fairly quick so I would recommend using gesso to prolongue its moisture for easier blending.Like all acrylic paint, it can be tricky to remove once it’s dry so I would be cautious about using it around small children or clothes unless you are in an area that can tolerate some stains.It doesn’t have a strong odor and I like how much paint you actually get out of each bottle- despite being fairly small, they are standard paint bottle size and they last a really long time because a little goes a long way.

This paint set contains high quality paint with a wide variety of colors. We used these for a paint party and had more than enough paint for 15 people. The paint worked well on canvas.

So I haven't gotten a chance to use these yet, but it's a brand I use all the time, so I feel confident I can speak towards the quality of the paint. Art Deco is an established paint company and when I use their acrylic paints I'm never disappointed. This pack has a wide variety of pastels, though some are a little more bright than I would expect for pastel, it feels like true pastel is a dying breed these days and they are just becoming brighter in general. 18 bottles for the price sis 100% worth it. These bottles can be 2-3 bucks or more in a hobby shop individually. Art Deco is always easy to use, the paint quality is what you'd generally expect from acyrlic paint. All these bottles in this pack were sealed and unopened, so I know none of them have had the change to dry out. I think this pack will be very helpful for my crafts coming up!

The colors are really pretty. I swatched them (two coats) and added a picture of that and one comparing them to the swatches of the deco arts fall colors.Several of the lighter colors are pretty transparent even with two coats. I would not use these in a situation where I needed good coverage or to paint a painting, but for craft applications they should work pretty well.Their plastic wrappers did not have the usual perforations so I had to use scissors to open them.
