Diamond Painting - Preparation | Ever Moment

[@patpowell6684]

I love kitting up!!!🤗✨💖 the anticipation of doing a painting is such a pleasure.

[@addmorezest]

It's such fun to get it all ready and know the next step is just as fun too.

You have totally inspired me to do a HAED with my spares. Now to pick a pattern! I hated the idea of throwing them out. Or sitting on boxes of extras for a some day I may need them.

[@sxybondgirl0077]

I recently stopped using those sort of containers 2nd time that I dropped the case and the drills went everywhere

[@addmorezest]

Screw tops are better if they could fall.

Collecting spares for my next HAED. Starting to save a few.TFTC.🌻💛😀☕️👍

[@sxybondgirl0077]

Should you remove the glue edge before or can you do it after you put the drills on?

[@addmorezest]

I've done it both before and after.

[@sxybondgirl0077]

@@addmorezest do you use the same method both ways

[@addmorezest]

@@sxybondgirl0077 I do, but when completed I often use the diamonds as a straight edge. It only works on canvas’ that are double sided tape though. Not poured glue ones.

[@sxybondgirl0077]

@@addmorezest how do you know what is poured glue and what's double sided tape?

[@addmorezest]

@@sxybondgirl0077 Poured glue comes with a clear cover on. Double sided tape is normally an opaque cover. :)

Thanks for sharing your kitting up, I have just de-kitted and am about to Kit up my new one and i'm going to put your wisdom to practice.... thanks again for sharing.. :)

[@addmorezest]

You're welcome! I love this process, so I enjoy sharing it.

I am so glad you do these videos, they really make my day. I have not seen you use your darice containers in a while. I ordered a roller and it came with this little 28 set like you use... I'm hooked. I just love it, and I almost didn't try it. There is so much about the way you organize, that I do exactly... and I think it is only one of the many reasons your videos calm me. Anyhow, I said all that to really say thank you for taking your time to do these for us!!! Have a wonderful week!

[@addmorezest]

Hi Tess, thank you again for your nice comments. I tend to use my Darice if they don't come in separate bags or are particularly small paintings as it doesn't tuck away in my cupboard and can take up too much room on the couch next to me when painting; however, I do have one I'll be ordering soon that I think they will work great for.

Lovely video💕💕

[@slyseyes]

Did you remove the clear plastic and cover your image with a type of tape?

[@addmorezest]

For this painting, it didn't come with clear plastic. Rather the opaque cover.

[@slyseyes]

@@addmorezest Ahhh...I haven't seen one covered like that ... yet.

[@MikiSunshine]

Great video. Can you provide a link for that particular painting?

Definitely will be trying to cut my glue and canvas on my little test kits to see if I can do it without cutting right through, you’re more skilled than me though 😂

[@addmorezest]

Just remember to keep it light, you can always cut again, but trying to stick it back together is a different story.

[@dieannamercurio4205]

Love the kitting up! I have those same containers but don’t use them anymore, as the lids have become way too loose. I love the EW Darice containers. After seeing ur unboxing video I went and ordered this dp. I truly love EM. Thanks for another wonderful video. 💕

[@addmorezest]

Thats a shame about the lids, as I love these small ones. (fit next to me on the couch and allow hubby to put hit feet up), the Darice containers are my organiser dream and I do love it on the occasion I use my one set.
