Thank you for this video, I'm having a hard time right now because my dog is sick and your video made me smile for the first time in a few days. Recording a plane taking off is such a nice sight for me because I love flying and the takeoff is my favorite moment. It was wonderful to spend time with your husband and family, and the animals are lovely. 🥺💚 I'm sad that we don't have such stores in Poland because I saw those mini kits there that I would love to buy, with dogs and cats they were cute, or that fox you gave to your friend. I hope you have a wonderful week and I can't wait for your next video. ❤

For only starting in July/August, you've done great. You're going to have to make a stash video now. :) I might have finished three this year. I went a little crazy when I started diamond painting, too. The problem is now, some of the ones I bought in the beginning no longer appeal to me. I don't do resolutions because I feel like I'm useless if I can't keep them.

Hi there! The little clip is called a binder clip. You can get those from any office supply store or Amazon! The table clamps that hold the painting are from Bella Art Diamonds!

Hi neighbor! I did try out Gems Flow but I just wish I was able to edit my entries on the computer.
@jessdiamondpaints18 сағат бұрын
I log all my finishes chronologically in order of Completion in GemsFlow no matter what kind it is. However partials and off the canvas projects get a % symbol to indicate that it wasn’t a full drill canvas. I also differentiate small full drill from larges. Anything over 40 on one side is large. Smaller than 40 count as smalls. I love using emoji for my categories so I can easily filter in the GemsFlow app. In my paper log I track the counts overall and year to date for each category.

I will say those special drills are beautiful though! Thanks as always for sharing!! 💟

I've debated getting the LED kits from Michaels. They look pretty cool and it's nice that they have other paintings that are interchangeable. Their square kits are good for the confetti-heavy canvases but color-blocking was a pain with them. I bought the new Hydrangea kit and it's full of confetti so it should be good. Glad you had a great time with your family and they join in on the fun! ☺
