Hello everyone!!! Today is Friday, which means we will talk about our purchases on #MarketFriday by 
As you probably already know, I'm currently learning how to draw. At first I bought paints for drawing in the shops of my city. But then I decided to look for it on the Internet, in the hope that the prices would be more favorable and the choice of goods would be larger. And I found a very cool site and even ordered what I needed. I liked it very much! When I needed paint again, I thought it would be nice to go to that store and see everything with my own eyes.
We went to Tel Aviv on business and also went to that store. The store is located in the basement of a residential building.
We go down (I was amazed that there is even a descent for wheelchairs!!!), turn right and ... I stopped in amazement! 😮
Those who love drawing understand me, right?! 😁
Easels, paints, pencils, sketchbooks, brushes and much more!!!! Masks have already been officially abolished in Israel, but we and many other people still use them indoors.
Near the front door, I saw lovely notebooks.
In Israel, the year is coming to an end (the new year starts in September here) and I need a new diary. I don't like commercial diaries, I like to use ordinary notebooks for my daily plan entries.
I chose the one that I liked (at a price of $ 3) and go further through the store. This is a real firework of color!!! Wow!!!!
I needed to find my acrylic paints among all this variety. I was delighted!!! Finally I saw what I was looking for!
See this huge amount of bright multi-colored tubes? It's acrylic paint! Wow! How great this looks!!!
I was looking for acrylic paint from the Amsterdam company. I really like the colors they offer and the very quality of their paints.
They have several options for the size of the paint tubes; I need tubes of 120 ml. Looking at all this beauty, I was glad that even at home I wrote down on paper the numbers of the tubes of paints I needed. Otherwise, I would have stood there for several hours choosing what to buy 😁🙈
I have already chosen a notebook and paints, I go further in search of brushes. There is even a small craft corner!
Several options for easels: from very small in size to very large.
I was thinking about buying a small easel, so I stopped to look at the prices. Table easels cost from 15 to 30 dollars. But my husband looked at it carefully and said that we do not need to spend money on this, as he would rather do something like that himself.
I had no doubts about my husband's ability to do something with his own hands, but I thought that he did not have the necessary tools for this. However, I did not argue and we moved on. Large selection of different size canvases!
They have both cheap Chinese canvases and expensive Italian ones. I quite like the Chinese ones (I've ordered this here before). Today I didn't need canvases. I was looking for brushes and then I saw a stand with amazingly beautiful notebooks.
No, you can't walk past this indifferently!!! Of course, we began to consider them. These are real works of art! But as we understood later, it is easy to get away from this when you see the price - $ 30! 😂
The first brushes we found are very expensive; I realized that these are natural brushes. I know it's very expensive. The saleswoman saw my confusion and asked what I was looking for. I answered that I need non-natural brushes, synthetic ones. And she immediately asked if it was for acrylic? I was shocked! Although the first time I saw saleswomen, I realized that professionals in their field work here.
She led us to another room. I want to ask you: how many brushes do you think we saw there? Yes, very, very much!!! 😁
I looked at this huge selection of brushes and thought I didn't have a list of their numbers written at home 🤣🤣🤣🙈 From all this, you need to choose a few. This is mega-hard for me! 😂
I honestly admit that I thought for a long time (thanks to my husband for his patience!) 😁🙈 But I had to start somewhere and I finally chose 3 brushes.
In addition, we took two pens and a pencil eraser. When I came to the cashier to pay, I immediately said that I wanted to issue their club card. I read on their website that then there will be a good discount on the product. That's how beautiful it is!!!
I thought that she would issue me a card after the purchase, but the saleswoman did the opposite: first she issued a card and then the goods. As a result, my entire order was calculated taking into account the discount. Wow!!! They even had their signature paper and plastic bags where she put my purchase.
Here is part of my purchase. When the saleswoman saw which eraser I chose. she took it, said that it was not so good in quality, left and returned with another one. She said that it is much better as it does not leave dirty marks on paper.
And these are my new colors! 💃💃💃
I was completely delighted after visiting this store: the choice of goods is huge, the design is stylish, the saleswomen are great and the prices are quite reasonable. It was an amazing experience!!!

Take care of yourself and be healthy!!!
