I must say I have been doing diamond art for almost a decade. I have seen since lock down how this has exploded. I am loving all the new items and videos I am finding. My first project was a 90x120 square full drill with only the standard tool kit. That was a looooong process. I hope everyone is enjoying this and finding as much joy as I have.

I do diamond art painting because it's relaxing. I do it because after I finish them, I'm proud of it. I do it to give them away, mainly small diamond art projects like coasters, bookmarks, keychains, etc. I even want to sell them at my aunt's antique store where I'm sitting at a table outside. That is my mom's idea which I'm willing to do, but I may have to get diamond art paintings geared towards boys and men than just the girly ones that way everyone doesn't feel left out. I will even do requests. If someone asks me to do a diamond art painting of Marvel that they want to have, I'll gladly do it.

@@HouseOfMiscellania Yeah, and when you mentioned full diamond art paintings and partial diamond art paintings, my mom who doesn't do what I like to do, doesn't know the difference. She'll ask me if the diamond art painting is a full one or a partial. I'll always tell her that a partial diamond art painting has symbols on certain areas, but not the entire thing, whereas a full diamond art painting has all symbols where the whole thing is sticky. I remembered I did a round stained glass diamond art painting. It wasn't a canvas type of painting but it's a partial one I did that my grandmother wanted me to do for her. It only took one day to do it. When my mom saw it, she thought it wasn't done because she showed me the other side of it, and I said that not all non canvas diamond art paintings will let you do two sides, it depends on what it is. And my favorite diamond art paintings are the partial ones. My mom, her boyfriend, including my twin sister, have no patience for it.

Enjoyed the WIP and chat and listening to things you’ve learned. Just hooked into your channel and subscribed. I like WIP and chats the most as I can work on my WIP while I listen to what’s going on in others lives. I have been painting for over 3 years and you did a great job of mentioning most of the things I had found out during my journey, but I always listen knowing that different views from different angles can improve things and see things you never thought of. Thank you for sharing. Peace and love abide with you 💕

I don`t think you said this, but it is fun to also get some customized paintings commissioned, I have just finished 2 one of each of my cats and done a few other customs too. Having the change by working on your personal photos also helps stop monotony that leads to burn out in my opinion. One can even get them with AB drills included now. (Apologies if you did I started watching at 5:15am GMST time so sound was on low.

Crochet was counting, ripping out and trying again. This is just a release for me. I have autoimmune problems and needed an outlet. Enjoyed this immensely. Thank you👍

Also, do NOT just buy kits because they are limited addition or the site is like "Well if you dont get it now its never coming back" More then likely it might take you a LONG time to even get started on one of the kits and your going to have a bunch of kits just lying around. And also make sure that you KNOW you like the kit, dont just buy it because it is limited addition. MAKE SURE you 100% like the kit cause if you dont like it more then likely your never going to get around to doing it. And even if you like the kit more then likely its for sale on another website or it WILL come back, it might take a while but it is more than likely going to come back
