Stash Count Sundays #8 - How much did I spent on 24 Premium Diamond Painting Kits ??

[@klefk9235]

Thanks for your candor! And you pick some fantastic canvases- many I’ve chosen because of your reviews, even challenging ones ❤

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Thanks so much. I really appreciate that.

[@kimberlyscabiniowa1199]

Love your channel Lisette! Love the Paris painting! Thanks for sharing everything.

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Ah thanks so much Kimberly - I really appreciate that 🥰

[@DiamondsandDragonflies]

Way to go Lisette! You have wayyy more willpower than me!

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Thanks so much 🥰

I can not even tell you how much I love this series. Your system of accountability and stash tracking is helping me to stay grounded in how I approach diamond painting. My max is 20. I am over that now, so I need to get to work. I figure that if a seasoned diamond painter has a max of 24, I have to have a lower stash max. I am nowhere near your level of experience yet so 20 may actually be too high. Dopamine does love to collect all of the bling and sparkle. I have also told myself that before I replenish any of mine, I need to have a plan for what I will do with the finished projects. This is to counter hoarding both finished and unfinished pieces. What do you do with your finished pieces?

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Thanks so much for your kind Words and truth be told: Even with all my expérience and thé accountability of my Channel/viewers I still struggle not to get lured into buying more…I Even fell for thé latest ‘mystery’ discount deal of DAC 🤣🤣🤣. I store my finished pieces…havé giving Some away and also havé thrown Some of them out - but can’t make myself to get rid of them of just yet - Will havé to in thé future since I’m not hanging them in my house.

Beautiful landscapes!

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Thanks so much

[@beckyl306]

I think $1700 -$1800 is reasonable for 24 premium kits. You always pick beautiful ones. Looking forward to seeing your completions. 😊

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Yes, I think so too Becky and Thank you 😊😊

[@GailMcCormick]

That miss holly arcade is what made me crack a few weeks ago! Great win for you though.

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

I totally get that - enjoy !

[@diamondpaintingwiththebesties]

Love it! In my mind... you are the Queen of self control. I am happy to report that my buying has dialed way back... I have other things to focus on like going to see my oldest and my grand babies... so that helps. Plus I have a new standard of when I will buy a kit.

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Ha ha ha - waaaayyy to much crédit, but I’ll take it. Thanks dear friend 🥰

[@ValerieHollifield]

Love Barefoot Beach!

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Thanks Valerie 🥰

[@katarina_kitkatdp]

Hi Lisette, c'est vraiment génial de voir de nouveaux achats, je n'ai vu la DAC nulle part et elle est très jolie ❣🍫

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Merci Katarina 🥰🥰

[@AnitavVHolland]

Hoi, prijs (totaal) valt mij ook mee. Mooie paintings weer. Keek er wel van op dat je 'al' op 24 zit 😮. Veel plezier ermee 🎉❤

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Hi Anita - ik ben heel blij met het feit dat ik er nu ben. Heb er nog zoveel die ik wel zou willen, dat het fijn voelt nu de rem er weer opgaat zeg maar. Beste beslissing ooit. Ik heb een super mooie collectie en dit is nu de basis - en vanaf hier nu ‘normaal’ verder

[@connyapfelbaum4498]

Hi Lisette, you're doing well, stay strong.

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Thanks Conny - I Will

Great video. Thank you.

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Thank you for your continuous support 🥰

[@tiny_turtles]

As a visual person, I appreciate your logbook and colorful charts. I keep track of my stash on gemsflow and also several detailed excel spreadsheets. So when you complete a diamond painting are you able to immediately get another kit to replace it? Or now that your jar is at 24 are you done buying for this year?

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

I can buy a new one if I complète one - so one in one out - I can also work my way through a couple of them and create a ‘buffer’ …I can not go above 24 though (24 is thé baseline)

[@scrappingsylvia]

Hi! Love your two paintings! The amount of many spent is actually very good. You are doing awesome. Thank you for sharing my friend🥰🥰

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Yes, I thought so too dear Sylvia - thanks 🥰

[@scrappingsylvia]

@@LisetteCraftsandTells You are very welcome 🥰 🥰

[@sonjaa.1121]

I love the Dreamer Designs image, too. ❤️ But I haven`t bought it.. it is on my wishlist 😊 The image from the DAC one is great, but I don`t like much color blocking. The amount you spent is absolute okay for so many quality canvases! 👍🏻

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Hi Sonja - yes I think so too.

[@ina290]

Alweer 2 hele mooie paintings Lisette. Ik noem jouw paintings zeker extra groot 😂. 50*60 vind ik al groot. Bedankt voor weer een mooie video. Groetjes uit Drenthe

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Ja, daar heb je wel gelijk in

[@bevjones7485]

Always beautiful paintings. I have Bare Foot Beach and it is beautiful. Looking forward to your completions. Take care and stay well. Peace and love abide with you 💕

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Oh yeah! I’m so happy for you that you got it too - it’s stunning 🥰

[@NancyCanadian]

I am enjoying your process and progress, I am still plugging away LOL

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Very good Nancy! 👍

[@carolracine4356]

Love Barefoot Beach & have it in my wish list-waiting for restock. Had a win - no buy for 3 months. Paring down my stash of 50. Love your system. You are encouraging me to detox. I complete 2 to 3 per month.

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Definitely a win! Good for you Carol

[@gwynethglas-brown9171]

Wauw stunning choices Lisette 😍 just Finished Couch Dragon yeah 😅 Have a Good week 🥰

Yeeaaahh! What’s your next one going to be?

[@MiasLifeWithKFS]

I would be fun, if you could try to take a picture like the Dreamer Design canvas when you go to Paris. Thank you for this video Lisette ❤❤❤

[@carolracine4356]

Love that idea!

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Great Idea Mia - I’ll try to keep that in mind

[@KatA7X]

Merci pour le vidéo! C'est vraiment bien qu'on puisse avoir une idée du prix pour toutes ces toiles, aucun autre youtubeur que je ne connais n'aborde ce sujet. Pourtant, c'est un loisir qui est très onéreux quand on acheète des toiltes premium! Bravo pour la transparence :)

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Merci beaucoup. J’apprécie énormément

[@Diamonds4Linda]

Thanks for another great video.

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Thanks dear Linda 🥰

[@jeshrellcasey8279]

❤ 😮

[@diamondsandthings]

The landscape one is beautiful. I’m better with confetti, I have a hard time with keeping the color blocking area straight, especially if there is a large area. Man, I love both of them.

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Yes, I have thé same issue with colorblocking

[@animegirl300]

My total kits as of right now is 37. I have completed 10 kits, 2 wips and 25 waiting to be done. 1 of the 2 wips are 50% done and the other one is 25% done. Right now i decided to do a no buy unless it is one of my 5 exception

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Sounds like a great plan - love it

[@lmcintire-brooks475]

Barefoot beach wasn't a new arrival as of today, but it's pretty recent. It's also out of stock. 😢

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Yes I know, but compared to thé other ones I havé in my stash

[@natz_andthe_diamonds]

hallo Lisette i really enjoyed this video, thank you. i didnt pay money for DP but i have some new collaboration kits and my friends and family gave me 4 for my birthday. My birthday was my loophole but not next year. next month after 6 month my stashdetox gets harder. only 2 collaboration partners and if they give me a kit to unbox one of my stash is moveing out.

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Sounds like a good plan Natz - hang in there. You got this

[@KuppiesKuppies]

Hi Lisette, it’s probably a redundant question but I guess you are going to skip out on Black Friday sales this year again? I’ll just assume you already have a Christmas kit in you stash as you had lamented about never having done one in the past.

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

No, I am very much looking forward to buying Some Diamond Paintings during thé Black Friday weekend. So it’s up to me to make sure that I’ve got Some of my current stash finished so that I havé Some wiggle room….as long as I manage to stay on 24 (stash+ wip’s) or below in total - I’m okay and yes I havé multiple Christmas Diamond Paintings in my stash - so no worries there.

[@KuppiesKuppies]

@@LisetteCraftsandTells that’s good to know you’re giving yourself grace 😊 Looking forward to November ❤️

[@claudiafortes9486]

The beach is absolutely stunning. I have no landscapes on my stash but who knows… maybe one day. I had one win this week - was very tempted to jump on Hades and Persephone … was already in my cart, but I resisted 😅… but then also a little fail… my one and only unicorn of Paintgem was restocked even though there were rumors it never would - I could not resist. Well… at least its only a small kit 🫣

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

I still think it’s a win Claudia - you could easily havé bought both and you didn’t - so win 🥇

[@claudiafortes9486]

@@LisetteCraftsandTells Thanks Lisette - I’ll take that 🥰

[@LisaNewf]

Love your two new paintings, especially the Paris one. I’m on a low buy and one of the DP’s in my DAC wish list came back in stock a couple of days ago and so far I have resisted. The temptation is hard. 🫨

[@LisetteCraftsandTells]

Yeeeaaahhh good for you Lisa - definitely à win 🥇
