Ashley is very particular about colouring the human face. She must use beige. However, there is a slight problem. Not all colour pencil sets have the colour beige. Have you noticed?
Some of Ashley’s colour pencils. No beige right?
These are the ones she’s using in school now. Can you see how short the beige is? This shows that she has been using a lot of that colour and she refuses to throw it away. I burst out laughing when I opened the box to check. Too funny.
Her back-up. There is another beige in her pencil box for just in case… 🙂
Ashley has been asking us to make sure that when we buy her a new set of colour pencils, it must have beige. Daddy said he wish there is a 12-colour ‘Only Beige’ colour pencil and he would get it for his princess. Perhaps he should write to Pelikan or Stabilo….muahahahahahah
Yeah..go their factory and buy. Faber Castell is nearby.
i didnt notice till u highlight that other brand does not have beige
lol! Very cute of Ashley indeed. April did raise the same question to me. I just told her, beige is for White, yellow is for Chinese, orange is for Malay, brown is for Indian and so on.
you can buy single colors. go to the artsy fartsy shop at the topmost floor at Gardens. I’m sure they sell.
Mine also insist peach for skin color but so far… no many human beings to color
Muahahaha, the beige one is very very short already. I wonder how Ashley still manage to hold on to it.
So far, my girl hasn’t give me any headache yet :p But I do notice some of her favourite color pencils are extremely short, like 2 inch tall?? Kekeke…
Why ar? My son pula know how to color brown for human sometimes colorful too…That make me headache too. When I asked him why? he told me she is an Indian mar…
Haha..very funny and cute. I recall when i was young, i love this color too. I do not like to color faces with brown as it looks like i do not look that brown. Neither is yellow, because it looks weird.When i have no choices, i will use orange instead.
Agreed with you, not all brands have beige. My boy also favors to use only one colour and when it gets shorter, I need to buy a whole new one or if the colours goes missing, we need to get a new box. I also wish they sell individual colours, sometimes :).
Haha.. That’s really funny. What an obsession she has!
LOL! with my girl, I told human got other skin colours other than orange/beige. So far, she is fine with using other colours for human skin.
Oh, i didn’t notice that. You know, my boys colour pencils, after a while, all kalam kabut, the box will like “ham choi”, so i keep all the colour pencils in one big tupperware box.
My boys also the same, they insist human skin must be in beige colour, no other colour.
Very adorable habit indeed!
Haha! This shows that Ashley is meticulous girl 🙂 The 12-colour ones usually do not have beige colour in them but the 24-colour and above ones usually have.
for qiqi, it is yellow.
In my case, the beige n yellow run out vy fast. As I always tell them to color black lightly to make grey, my boy told me he colored orange lightly to make beige. 😀
Hey, same here with my Bryan. MUST USE BEIGE!!
hey Barb, try checkout some art shop. Those shop that only sell art material. They sell colour pencils separately and you can buy them how many you want. Not sure around your area, but I know there’s an art shop in Central Market, or can try Petaling Street.
