Diamond Painting Wip and Chat! We have a beautiful Victorian Lady! What is my biggest food craving?

[@MariaJeanneD]

The dogs are so cute together, they will be fast friends in no time! Thanks for inserting the video!

Hi Marie! I think they’re going to be sisters just like her mommy and I are! ♥️♥️♥️

Joy just messaged me yesterday, that she is working on my order! I can’t wait to use them! I am working on a Oraloa painting and boy does it have a lot of ABs. I have been fighting the AB struggle bus! I hate the wax being pulled out of the pen. So I hope Joy’s putty helps. I think we all have a favorite snack! I’m learning at the ripe old age of 64 to eat the portion size! So I never grab the bag, just the portion size. So I still get my snack and I have lost weight! Yeah for me! Listening to you talk about Mougi, makes me think about my Rottweiler Lady. She would rot talk and dance with me! Have a great week!

[@kimbaskrafts]

Hi Carol! Omg. I hope the putty works for you too! Oraloa has a lot of AB’s, and yes! The wax being pulled out of the pen. Some times I would be changing the wax with different colors and types over and over again to try to find something that actually worked! It was so frustrating. Yes! Lol I have to do this. Bob was like. Ok. Now put the bag away. Me. *Continues to eat out of the bag* Bag is half gone. Me. “I have a problem” bob “that’s why you put the bag away”. Me 😫

Hi, Kim! 👋 Your painting is coming along nicely. Do you know Mindy Dipple from Diamond Moments & Krafts ( I think that’s her channel) and her friend Angie ( Angie the Craftnado) that’s her channel. Anyways…. They share this painting & pass it back and forth to work on it. It’s been awhile since they’ve worked on it. I think they gave up on it.😅 Your puppy is growing so fast. It’s cute watching her play with your Friends dog. She’s going to love going to doggy daycare. I bet she comes home & crashes. 😅Fun, fun! Enjoy your week. ❤

[@kimbaskrafts]

I heard about Mindy and Angie! I’ll have to look up the videos! I’m actually really enjoying this painting! Also the schedule. It makes it feel so manageable for some reason. I’ve yet to feel stressed about doing the weekly installment. 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Hi Kim. I love your wip n chats. I love pretzels. Either one. We have Snyder pretzels here too. I love Snyder. The one with mustard used to be my fav. Now, just pretzels, any flavor will do. I love Joys putty. I have 3 scents. I do plan to order more. I wish Pixieann and Mugi could meet. I haven’t been able to get Pixieann in for her last visit yet. However, my kids, who took turns taking care of me, had to bring their animals here when they were here. My daughter Mandy lives in Asheville. She has 3 cats and a dog. She couldn’t leave them there so they came with her. (She was here almost 3 weeks). We have a (almost) finished basement. She kept her animals down there while ours were upstairs. When she was on “mom duty” she brought her dog up here. He’s 5 years old. That dog played and played with Pixieann. They wore each other out. Our dog Jack is at least 10. He doesn’t play much with Pixieann. So her playing with Boulder was a treat for Pixieann. My male calico will play with Pixieann. When he doesn’t want to play or gets tired he jumps up on his tree and looks down at Pixieann. She will fuss at him like there’s no tomorrow! Our fur babies! We do love them. ❤ Mugi has gotten so big! And she’s so cute! I love the pictures and videos of her. Your videos are so good for me, Kim. You have a calming voice. I love your stories too. I appreciate you taking time to record them, edit them and post them. Thank you! Blessings ❤

[@kimbaskrafts]

Hi Danelle! I hope you are getting better and stronger with each passing day! Love the stories of all your furbabies and fur grand babies 🤣 sounds like the cat knows how to win an argument 🤣🤣 Thank you as always for watching and listening to my videos 🙏🏼🙏🏼♥️♥️

[@Bettyblues21]

Hi Kim ❤ such a beautiful painting. Can’t wait to see the final finish it’s going to be amazing. Omg the dogs are cute. I used to have a pitbull so loyal and very protective. My sister had a rotti and they got along so well until one day my dog bit his leg to hard and he grabbed my dog by the stomach close to his privet part and punctured his skin which required stitches but he was fine. They became best friends again after 😂. Speaking about pretzels I love the thin Buffalo wing pretzels it’s a must try. Also try spicy ranch if you ever come across it. Sometime the ranch one is hard to find. We have the Buffalo wing one in Canada but it’s not the same at the US.

[@kimbaskrafts]

Hi Bettyjo! I finished it! I will be doing a post review soon! Awww I’m so glad the dogs were ok and kissed and made up 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 my pretzel cravings are getting more controlled which I am so thankful for lol. It was out of control!😅😅😅

[@margiegreiss5468]

Very nice...southern Belle is the same vibes i get ..tfs

[@kimbaskrafts]

Hi Marie! I feel like Southern Belle too. But I looked up the difference. Seems southern belles have very poofy skirts. While Victorian Ladies have more a-line skirts. So I’m thinking it is a Victorian lady? But I still feel southern lol

[@KathyClark-oi6rs]

God bless you for working during covid! I retired in 18 so I was lucky. But when I would float to a different unit . I would write down their names on my report sheet and something to Identify them hair color or shirt color etc.

[@kimbaskrafts]

Thank you! A lot of older nurses retired early because of Covid, and I don’t blame them at all! Lol I started back in the hospital when Covid hit, and I didn’t know how anyone looked without a mask and hat 😂

[@denisehudson4723]

That painting is so gorgeous! Love your puppy she is the cutest! You can't live your with what if. You are where your supposed to be just my opinion and you know the rest of the line. Lol you take care.

[@kimbaskrafts]

Thanks Denise. It is true. 🥰🥰🥰

[@wilmabelardo-shaffrey3554]

Dip those pretzels in french dip or ranch dip and you will love it even more

[@kimbaskrafts]

Hi Wilma! I love the “plainness” of pretzels! I’m so weird! I need hypnosis!😭

[@Chocolate_Diamonds]

My sons no longer live in the Philadelphia area so whenever I go visit I have to bring them Philly cheese steaks and pretzels sometimes Tastykakes too😁 I'm also on a no buy!!!

[@kimbaskrafts]

Omg. Yes! All of those things are on my aunts lists! 😂😂😂😂 you’re a good mama! ♥️♥️♥️

[@AcraftyErin]

❤❤❤

[@kimbaskrafts]

😘😘😘

[@marladillard8721]

So pretty❤

[@kimbaskrafts]

Thank you ♥️♥️

[@lauramcquaid3238]

i love pretzels, I do go through the samething, love soft ones to but nothing like the ones in Altantic City on the boardwalk My Grandpop would take us kids on Saturdays.

[@kimbaskrafts]

Omg! Are you in NJ? I don’t think I’ve ever had them in AC? What’s the store name? You know I have to go now! 🤗🤗

[@lauramcquaid3238]

Sorry no that was years ago when I was a kid. Maybe 1960. At that time there was no cansio and the boardwalk was called million dollar pier. I live in Georgia now

[@biancahennings3809]

Pretzels - possibly something your body needs in them? 🥖 No buy - how many do you have in your stash? I too am on a "no buy" hahaha what a joke, have just bought more from my supplier, got 3x WIPS atm 👏 Long term project - Mugi diamond painting!? 🐶

[@kimbaskrafts]

Hi Bianca! Sorry this is such a late response. I’m really working hard to clean up my responses! Thanks for watching! I think my body needed carbs when the pretzel cravings started! And it just won’t go away! 😭😭😭 I have been so good! No purchases since May! ❤️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@karenolivier9537]

Hi Kim, I love your channel. I went in the Air Force at 19. My only regret was not doing 20yrs.

[@kimbaskrafts]

Hi Karen, thank you! And thank you for your service! How many years did you do? I wish I knew about pensions and understood all of that when I was younger. Life time benefits etc. school should explain these things to the youth. All they push down our throats is college.

[@karenolivier9537]

@kimbaskrafts 8 years total, I started a family and now I'm too old, haha. Have a great time at your retreat ✨️

[@kimbaskrafts]

@karenolivier9537 awww nothing can replace family 🙏🏼♥️ thank you!

[@peggywood7952]

Oh…. I forgot to tell you I ordered some putty from Joy. Haven’t received it yet though. I’m being patient. I bought a lot of scents. I also Got some for my twin who lives in FL. She’s clueless…. 😅 She enjoys getting happy mail from me & trying new stuff. Byeeeeeeeeee

[@kimbaskrafts]

Oh yay! I hope you love it as much as I do! Makes my diamond painting sessions so much easier! My friend did not have as much success as I have. So I’m curious! Again I feel like everyone is different with climate, pressure used to diamond paint. Type of placer etc. but I have had ZERO issues with each scent and every time I load the pen with new putty it works beautifully!

[@diamondsandthings]

I go to Dairy Queen where I buy their soft pretzels with queso, love them! Maybe your body is lacking something-sodium?! That is a pretty canvas. I love the sound of glue dots

[@kimbaskrafts]

I thought about the sodium thing. lol. Maybe I’m just crazy! Yum! Soft pretzels for the win every time! 🥳🥳🥳

[@diamondsandthings]

@@kimbaskrafts yes, I be have to watch my salt intake too, but I only go there once in a while.

[@mamalou1962]

Ps, my daughter is a photographer. We’re going to get a good picture of all 4 of our animals. Then we’re making a collage of them. I’m going to get a custom done through ever moment. I had my sons done through Dreamer’s and the gapping was horrible. Does it take long to get things through them?

[@kimbaskrafts]

Hey Danelle! I have only ever ordered blank canvases and drills from them. They never take long at all! Ps you should get custom release papers made too😆

[@rosesmith6925]

How are the square drills coming along?

[@kimbaskrafts]

They are fine! I know there are a lot of different reviews, but this has been a joy to Diamond paint 🥰🥰

[@nursie1992]

I tried to order from Joy but I could only do it via facebook. I tried to join group to order but it's not letting me join not sure if I am doing something wrong.

[@kimbaskrafts]

Hi Nursie. What’s your name on Fb? I will send you a group invite and let Joy know.
