Stash Count Sundays #7 - Look what I found - Another one of my unicorns. Let's see what I spent.

My stash count is up to 20. So far in June I received 4 of my diamond Painting orders so my Stash Jar is getting full. This beautiful Mandie Manzano Princess Panel is part of my latest purchases.A rare find from a destash and I'm over the moon to have been able to purchase it for a decent price.

Nice. Congratulations. Good thing you still had room in your jar for that piece

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Thanks Penny - yes, me too 🥰

Hi Lisette! I know I commented a few times and fell off the planet. I didn’t leave you. 😅 I was in the hospital for most of June. (I am on the mend and doing better). I’m catching up on the Stash Count Sunday videos now. I do so enjoy your videos! I loved SCS number 6. Thank You for offering the PDF file. I will fill out the info as soon as I can. I love your log book system. I need to get busy on mine. I may just start in 2025. I’ve got at least 2 more surgeries, maybe 3 this year. But, I can say I don’t have over 24 premium paintings. I have 4 small budget ones going. I have a huge Dreamer’s started and I loved doing it. But I haven’t been able to sit and work on it in about 6 weeks. So the little ones are getting my attention. Looking forward to your next video.

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Hi I'm so sorry for responding so late. I'm only just now catching up on comments. So sorry you had to have surgery and have at least to more to go. I hope you're feeling better after the one you had in June. I just send all the worksheets that were requested in July - I don't think I saw you in there. No rush - whenever you feel like it, I'll be more than happy to send them to you. You can also wait a while - because I'll probable create new worksheets for 2025. Since you probably won't be able to start your log book system before that - maybe that's a better idea. Never feel the pressure to comment on my videos. I'm just glad to read you're on the mend. I hope I can entertain you with my videos. Which Dreamer Designs are you working on? You hang in there and sending my best wishes.

Hi Lisette, c'est vraiment chouette de pouvoir trouver ses favoris ☺ Belle semaine 🍫

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

😘

[@DiamondsshinewithShonta]

I’m so glad you were able to get another of your unicorns.💚

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

thanks so much Shonta and welcome to the membership

[@coralgonzalez8659]

😘

My win was I didn't buy any new diamond paintings or diamond painting related accessories this last week. I'm almost finished with my current WIP with only one section left. I'm doing the detox by shopping my own stash and refraining from buying anything new. I've been making and using my own homemade putty to keep costs in check.

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Wow - that’s awesome. Great win!

[@oxymom2002]

Wins - further organized and got an actual count of my stash (agh) and favorited a Diamond Art Club that I really, really wanted. It’s all baby steps. 😅 I was thinking about your princess panel. Honestly, I would create a rule allowing for princess panel purchases at great prices no matter the size of your stash!

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Are you trying to enable me? Ha ha ha …no, no exceptions - 24 really is enough (and I’m so glad I picked that Number because otherwise I would already be at a Higher number - that’s for sure. Great wins! Keep it up - Babysteps Babysteps

[@diamondpaintingwiththebesties]

Great video!

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Thanks my friend - just catching up on comments 🙈

[@margiegreiss5468]

Great update...congrats on finding a unicorn...tfs

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Thanks Margie - I’m really happy with it 🥰

[@Crafty-ishKristyn]

Finishing a big Last Supper painting from Art and Soul Diamonds. It's 122 cm long!

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Woooowwwww how cool !!!

[@graylagran7443]

Okay. I got it now. Your jar will be full, but you can subtract the finishes from the other page.

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Yes 👍

[@LillianCrawfishDE]

Well, I almost had a win this week. I didn't buy any new releases, so I'll call that a partial win. Then DAC did a restock Sunday night, which included one of the ones I'd been waiting for, Little Lizard Garden.

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Yes, I saw it and was so tempted myself - but ...I'm at my limit at the moment....grrrrrr. So happy for you that you managed to get it.

[@LisaNewf]

Hi Lisette, congrats on getting your unicorn DP from a Destash group. It’s a beautiful one. ❤

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Thanks Lisa - I'm over the moon that I managed to get it.

[@carinaerlinger]

Oh I can't wait to see the JWall. I'm so happy for you to find a unicorn for such a Deal 😊

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

You’re going to love it. It’s turning out so beautiful- a labour of love and definitely worth it

[@bevjones7485]

Thank you for the update. Looking forward to seeing the JWall progress. Still working on my WIPs. Slow going as I moved for the summer and just getting settled. Peace and love abide with you 💕

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Hi Bev - so good that you're still working on your WIPs - I always slow down during the summer. there's a time and a place for this hobby. Hugs

[@GailMcCormick]

I'm excited to see the JGS Kat Fedora! I have one in my stash. Love her artwork!

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Yes me too! Spoiler alert - absolutely loving it and the quality of JGS is chefs kiss

[@claudiafortes9486]

Your unicorn is really a beauty. Congratulations and nice to hear that there are honest people out there selling it for a reasonable price and not just wanting to make money with it. I am still going well. No buy - even though I used to buy every Margaret Morales. It’s the second that went to the wishlist and not the cart 😁

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Oh wow Claudia - that’s definitely a win

[@animegirl300]

I'm going to do 2 wips at a time. I just get overwhelmed with the idea of doing more then 2 kits at a time. Hopefully when I get more experience and better at multi placing then maybe I will do more then 2 at a time

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Great plan - small steps and it really works

[@dolphinsrock09]

That was such a good find. I had kinda of loss this week. I did buy a kit that I have been waiting for since last black Friday. Finally, I did get under the stairs from diamond art club

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

I’m so happy for you that you finally managed to get her. I know a lot of people were bummed that they missed it again. Havé fun working on it.

[@scrappingsylvia]

Hi Lisette! I am so happy that you were able to buy that beautiful painting from a destash. I guess it’s 24 paintings for the year. Very difficult my friend 😮😬😂. I am trying. lol🥰🥰❤️

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Ha Ha Ha - I know the feeling Sylvia

[@danish_puzzler]

Congratulations on the beautiful find!! I didn't buy anything. One from my wishlist came back in stock but I surprised myself and decided to just keep an eye on it a bit longer. None of the new releases were a must buy. I did finish one, so I am able to buy a medium round when I see one I really want. I'm super proud of myself!!

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Yes, I can imagine. That’s so cool.

[@gwynethglas-brown9171]

Thats was a lovely Bargain for that Diamond painting 😜 yes some ask for away lot more 🤔. Its very pretty 😍. still not bought anything. Though i still seen a few i like its tempting . Your Jar filling up nicely 😜 Hope your doing well , take care have a lovely evening 🥰

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Hi Gwyneth - thanks so much. Yes I really love her.

[@JustSheilz]

I wish I was fast enough to finish 2 a month. Im like 6 a year LOL

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

That’s amazing too - as long as you are enjoying yourself - everybody works at their own speed

[@AnitavVHolland]

Wauw mooie painting! En nog met ronde steentjes ook, want DAC brengt nog zelden ronde uit. Ik had via een destash groep Elusive gekocht voor leuke prijs, ze is prachtig ❤ zo blij mee. Je moet net mazzel hebben. Mijn no buy gaat niet zo goed, maar positief gezien koop ik nu gemiddeld 1 per maand. Ik had gisteravond na 1 maand de Dog bookshelf gekocht. Steeds low stock en besloten om mijn punten te gebruiken, daardoor 70 ipv 102 kwijt. Iets in mij bleef enthousiast omdat ik elke boek met pup los wil gaan doen, dus kleine projectjes met daarbij nog meer ideeën 😊. Ik ben benieuwd naar jouw andere nieuw gekochte 😀. Oja ik heb laatst alle kleine stickers in een fotomapje gedaan. Dus daarin kan ik mijn stash zien ( en zo hopelijk ook meer beseffen dat ik genoeg heb.... 😅😂). Groetjes Anita

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Ja gaaf hè?! Oh wat goed van je - ja, gewoon een beetje kritischer qua kopen en dan ben je er al. Die bookshelf lijkt me heel leuk om te doen - soort mini projectjes

[@christopherkolasa]

Eggg-cellent!! On getting a unicorn 🦄 !👏🏼👏🏼…… pssssst,,,, don’t tell anyone…. While it wasn’t a unicorn, I recently got her sister thru a destash , like you, just by happenstance and also not for a lot of money 😃💜

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Ohhhh yeaaahh - I’m so happy for you Chris. Doesn’t it feel awesome to get it?! I love her so much. Hugs

[@NancyCanadian]

Finished 4, still not buying. I am well on my way (wishlisted a few). It seems to be getting easier not buying. Lol

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Well done Nancy - you’re doing great!

[@angellearose]

Congratulations on the unicorn 🎉 I brought 2 yesterday from DAC... they broke me 😂

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Thanks - yes, they get us every time with the beautiful releases - Which ones did you get?

[@sonjaa.1121]

No win, but I sold some of my DPs 😊

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Hi Sonja - well I consider that a win. Where did you sell them if I may ask - via Facebook/Vinted/Ebay or another site?

[@wendycampbell719]

Hi Lisette, have you heard or know of this company I think it's in france" Unbrunbarbu diamond painting " I'm kean on getting a canvas but haven't seen anyone with pieces fr them.

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Hi Wendy - I took a Quick look at the site and don’t see anything about artists/legally licensing on there - I think that may be thé reason you don’t see them around is because Most of the Diamond painters I know are pretty careful about that. Don’t know for sure of course but that’s my first thought

[@diamonds-n-dogs]

Question: when you finish a painting, what happens to its stripe on the jar? Does it get dedicated to a new painting? Or does this mean you're only buying 24 kits in a year? Because if a painting leaves your stash, you can't really erase the stripe... 🤔 Or am I overthinking again 😅?

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Ha ha ha - you’re definitely overthinking it Melanie - once you’ve colored thé lines there’s no turning back. Yes, you can buy more than 24 - once you’ve finished Diamond paintings they ‘leave’ thé 24. So they’ré no longer part of your stash. You can buy again until you get to 24 (if you want)….but….that doesn’t change anything about the jar. Thé jar stays full until thé end of 24…just as a reminder that you’ve bought enough! In 2025 you get a new jar. At that point (so January first) you Check your stash (not started & Wips). If it’s less than 24 - you color thé lines of the ones you havé (for instance 17) and you get to fill in the colors of the remaining 7 as new ones come in in 2025. Once you’re back at 24 in 2025 - the jar is full again and you don’t get a new jar Till 2026. It is to remind you that you have enough stash for a year.
