Great Products and Service

So handy to be able to order Julia's paints from within the UK, saving on shipping costs and time.
Very happy with my 'Valentin' and 'Svea'.
Great communication from Gem, everything well packaged with a lovely handwritten note, sticker and fun paperclip.

Great buying experience

The Colour Cave is a little treasure trove. Ordering was seamless and my parcel was packed with great care and attention. Gem even included a hand written note. Check out her new “scrappy packs”, they’re great for a little bit of inspiration. Do visit the Colour Cave, you won’t be disappointed.

Great shop, lovely owner

Gem is so friendly and easy to communicate with. The Cave has interesting products in all the time and gives me the chance to try multiple art supplies on a small scale for really great prices. Everything arrives quickly, well wrapped and I've never had an order be wrong in any way. Highly recommend checking it out!

The Fabulous ColourCave

A Brilliant opportunity to purchase new & used art stuff, including the fantastic Paints and some stationary items from Julia K Art Studio.
Gem contacted me promptly when there was a slight delay at the post office - it's been so lovely chatting with her, after following her YouTube channel for years.. I highly recommend both shop & channel 😻
