Thank you for making this video. I've been wanting to do a HAED but had no clue the difference between the max color and regular or even that there were mini designs. All I knew was that you can purchase the design you want from the HAED website.

Thank you for explaining on how to order one of these. This is definitely on my bucket list of diamond paintings to do! It is very interesting and I'm glad there are mini ones to try out, which is what I'll probably do first. I know I had seen this video a while ago so when I was watching Emeralds and Fairy Lights mentioned you on her video and then it clicked! Again, thank you for a great breakdown!

I haven’t quite finished the video, about 3 minutes left, but I wanted to let you know before you place your order for the mini canvas, you reversed your numbers. You calculated 46cm and put into the letter 64cm. Thank you for this video.

I love to find new things around diamond painting and I also want to try it out, but I am often so overwhelmed and kind of shy, because I don't understand a thing. 😂😂😂 So your video was really really helpful and took some worries from me. I am so happy. Thank you! ❤️

An EXCELLENT video!!! Absolutely EXCELLENT! So thorough, knowledgeable, great explanations and examples. Researching suppliers is helpful too. Thank-you for this. Just today I purchased Josephine Wall’s Capricorn in a 90cm x 72cm. I won’t receive it for a couple of months due to COVID-19 related shipping restraints. I’d love to find the listing of the 325 DMC numbers and symbols to begin preparing the organizing of the diamonds. I will be rewatching your video(s) for your HAED painting, which are what, they are fantastic. 👁♥️💎🎨

Loved your explenation, i didn't notice that you reversed the length, i have (I dont know if it is called the same in English) discalculie, wich is like dyslexia but with numbers. I just read it in the comments. Indeed good that you rather have too much than too little haha. Love to see how both of you're head designs will look once they're finished!

One that I like is already available as a kit from DYI Moon Shop so I'm not sure if it's less expensive to buy from them or get the chart and blank canvas.

Awesome video! I did want to point out some things you missed and 1 thing that was wrong. So the thing you got wrong was saying that minis dont come in max color. Thats not true. There are plenty of mini charts with max color but are not as common due to confetti hell. Those will not have 200+ colors obviously but still well above the average 90. Some things you missed or forgot to mention was the Quick stitch (QS) and storykeep charts. Those are smaller portions of a regular chart. In regards to the new numbers: 1 and 01 ARE NOT THE SAME!! 1 is blanc which can be substituted with 5200 like you said. However there is also 32 and krenik 032 which ARE NOT THE SAME!! Krenik is a sparkly thread that they use which can be substituted for 5200 or AB 5200. You can find a list of conversions in the facebook group. Last thing i want to mention is the special service option. If you cant find a chart in the size you are looking for or the amount of colors you want, you can request things like max color, color expansion, mini size, quick stitch, super size, etc using the special service link on the HAED website

One question I have is that is there somewhere that I could get a poured glue blank canvas or would you not recommend this? Look forward to your reply.

I think Hankins store on Ali Express does poured glue; however, I have heard many say it's not the best to work with for a HAED.

Shouldn’t your canvas be 46cm x 82cm and not 64cm x 82cm? Also just wanted to mention that you only have a certain time-frame to download your pattern from HAED. I normally email the downloaded pattern to myself as well as placing a digital copy on a flash drive for safe keeping. Thanks for a very informative video - I don’t feel so daunted trying to do the whole process myself!

Hello. I have watched your video and how to order supplies which has been really helpful. I was just wondering how you got on ordering your blank canvas from Calvert Crafts & if you were happy with the canvas you received. I followed your instructions, which I thought were really nice and clear & they must have got confused when I requested a larger border beyond the sticky grid area. I added on 4cm each side like you did, but it looks like you can only get 2cm margin per side. Could you confirm what happened when you placed your order & if the canvas met your expectations please? Thank you for doing such a great video :-)
