⬇ people who want to see Katie do canvas/shop comparisons after they've been out in the rain LOL 🌧😂

[@DiamondsandWashi]

😂😂😂

[@MrsElledge]

@@DiamondsandWashiI really think that would be awesome. Who knows?!?! Maybe it’ll go viral! 😂

[@mysteriousdays]

When you said “I like bigger trays”, the song that goes “I like big trays and I cannot lie, you other diamond painters can’t lie, that when a big tray walks in and shakes” immediately played

[@DiamondsandWashi]

That’s amazing 😂

[@DiamondMeMa]

I’m doing great. Have a great week. 📖

[@MrsElledge]

📖I’m forgetful so that rain story could have totally been me! I’ve been listening to your WIP&Chats that it feels like we’re just catching up (except you can’t hear my dialogue, in my head, chatting away with you). 😂😂

[@Fiona2314]

📖 Your voice is really nice to listen to while I craft, it feels like I have a crafting buddy with me. :)

[@spottedtime]

📚 I also have mild eczema and my go to treatment is literally, just Vaseline. It has helped deal with the dry, itchy skin, by putting it on the spots that’s affected. As for what can trigger eczema, it can vary. So, dry seasons aren’t the only trigger for it. Based on what I’ve read, it can even be the things that you put onto your skin, like soap. I think my triggers, at the moment, is stress and dry air.

[@poetangel922]

Always love catching up!📕

[@anitaminer8059]

📚 Hey Katie I been listening to Sherlock Homes . I would like to say that, You are not alone the problem with having to hear 3 or 4 times to sink into the brain. Love your Channel

[@jmd2662]

I don’t mind you working on a lot of DAC. It’s pretty much all I work on these days. My wip is Rain, which is an older DAC kit. I’m loving it. We were snowed in all last week. We got 9 inches of snow on Monday (MLK Day), which is a lot for middle Tennessee and frigid temperatures, so it didn’t go anywhere all week. It’s finally above freezing this week and the snow is almost gone. Enjoyed hearing about your trip to Ohio and happy Connor was able to make his snow angels!📚📖

[@thediamondstitcher]

If you are interested I just did a video on how to make the pen tip hole a bit wider to fit the DAC tips. It’s quite simple and doesn’t harm the pen. Yay for seeing some Canadian small shops in your video! I think it’s still nice to see post reviews if the painting is not available. They do have an XL size tray. Pretty mug! Thanks for the chat!

[@LisaK2255]

Loves to see a raw video❤…it’s way more fun, cause I run into the same issues you do, and I like the ideas of fixing them..

[@amandayoung349]

📚 Thanks again Katie. Love hearing your life updates

[@katherinealtrina791]

So glad everything is going good for you. Books held such a special place in my heart growing up. 📚

[@DiamondsandDobermans]

📚📚📚 listened to the end 😊Thanks to you I learned how to seal my crystal canvas. It’s a saved vid, trust me. So glad your painting wasn’t ruined!

[@denisehudson4723]

📚📚📚 just finished a lighthouse from a make market kit now I'm crocheting a poncho. Take care and have a great week.

[@gbeach20]

📚 Thanks Katie I always enjoy your wip and chats❤️

[@Cathairandchaos]

Thank you for whipping out your WIP! 😍😍😍

[@jessdiamondpaints]

Quick tip. Go thru and put a Dragon Emoji at the end of the title for each dragon kit in your stash. Then you can search for that emoji and see how many you have. I do this emoji filtering for all kinds of categories in my stash. For example 💎blue diamond is for a large full drill. (Meaning over 40 cm on a side.). I have small full drills (40 cm or smaller on a side) labeled with the red exclmation ❗️holiday kits get emojis too. Super handy for easy filtering.

[@DiamondsandWashi]

That’s such a great idea! Thank you so much!

[@melissakincaid7594]

I would love to see a post review of LA Lune! Especially how it looks after being in the rain 😂 I look forward to Monday evenings, sitting down and working on my WIP while listening to how your week has been. Same place, same time next Monday? 😅 Have a good week! 📚📚

[@elliet68]

Hi Katie X Thank You for the WIP and Chat 📚. I feel at the moment I am going mad and I need to rewatch as my brain wandered 🤦‍♀️. I have seen this kit and I feel somebody has said it has been archived? (Could be wrong as brain fog at the moment is bad). I will go and re watch in a few hours so if I coment again please ignore lol. Oh yes I felt like I was losing my mum all over again when my dad decided to sell our family home. We didn't move into it till I was just 16 but it seemed to hold the most memories. It was our family home till I was 42. X Thank You Again x Ellie x

[@Tammywillinham]

I just started listening to The Summer I Turned Pretty on Audible 📖. I am kitting up Weekend in Paradise from Diamond Art Club.

[@lisad.5739]

Enjoyed the WIP and chat! Working on Fourth Friends from Dreamer Designs. 📖

[@brittanymorris943]

I actually use a seam ripper to clean out my was from my tools 😅 nothing wrong with using them as long as it gets the job done

[@susanh9950]

Hi Katie, very cool finding old 📚from your childhood, and how cool that an author wrote you back! Would love to see a video for a sealed diamond painting that spent the night in the rain😮 have a terrific week! ❤️from 🇨🇦

[@erin3me]

📕📗📘📙 im currently reading twisted games and it is so good. I am doing alright I have been sick the past few days trying to just keep chugging along. Was working on artist room while listening to this video. And I personally dont mind if you do DAC canvases one after the other as long as you are enjoying what you are working on thats all that matters 🫶🫶 I also woke up this morning and realized it was wip and chat day and I was very excited to watch/listen but just now got to the video. Thank you for posting these videos they really give me comfort while crafting ☺️☺️

[@Robin-gf6qw]

Thanks for answering the question about minwax 😅. 📖

[@christinadinielli]

Hi Katie!! I thought of you today. I went to the Starbucks in Target by me and found the same dragon cup you showed on your live! 1 target and done. 😆 it's a gorgeous cup!!

[@sylviawoodward4095]

📙 Glad you, and family got home safely. My current WIP is Christmas Cottage by Dreamers Design. I enjoy your video as always. Have a Blessed week!

[@cassie1715]

So fun fact, Karen Puzzles was sponsored by DAC a couple years ago for one of her videos and that is what led me down the path of looking into Diamond Painting which led me to finding you

[@Christine-Lynn]

Could you do a small shop haul like a spot light on your weekly WIP n Chat?

[@TJWilson76]

I bought a tray from Yellowdog’s shop. It is in Canada, so it took a bit longer to receive. But, it was well worth it. I love this tray. It’s heavier than any other tray I have, so it’s not easy to tip over. I highly recommend this company.

[@KMPlatt1996]

Hi, yes, please let us see your finish ❤

[@liseboyd1014]

📚Anne McCaffrey’s dragon books were my passion in middle school. I devoured them! During this chat I kitted up the new mystery kit from Paint Gem. The pallet is really pretty and the sixteen images look like..er..a common house hold object. No spoilers here. I’m glad I bought it. 😁

[@DiamondsandWashi]

Oh my goodness! I adored Anne McCaffrey’s books in middle and high school too. I should try those on Audible sometime!

[@liseboyd1014]

@@DiamondsandWashi You know, I should do that too. I have Audible credits so why not!

[@jlstrick1]

📚📚Susan Cooper’s series is The Dark is Rising. Been working on some 4x6 partial canvases for my niece’s birthday in February.😊

[@txlaura]

Well “La Lune” was a rainy day kit 💧☔️📚

[@DiamondsandWashi]

The CACKLE I just let out 💀 Oh my gosh, you made my day 🤣🤣🤣

[@just_some_soup]

For the small shop hauls, just an idea, you could take a page out of planner youtube where for their hauls they will film in parts when they get things in and then once they have enough clips they just edit them together with an intro and outro. That could help you not get backed up potentially. Just an idea 😊

[@DiamondsandWashi]

Thank you for the idea! 🥰 I may give that a shot!

[@openorwap5412]

📚 Personally, I'd be really interested to see your review of La Lune. For me, it's about the experience of diamond painting over whether or not it's still available, especially as you've said the piece is special to you. Plus, it might be useful to see issues that may present themselves with other paintings that aren't exclusive to that particular company, but diamond art overall and the troubleshooting methods you used. However, it's your time and your content, so go with how YOU feel about it ✨️😊

[@robinpennington5758]

Thank you for the WIP & chat, Katie! I am glad you made it home safely, sorry to hear you had such a long layover. I could only imagine how tired and exhausting that had to be! I would love to see a post review and hear how your rainy canvas is doing. Hope you have a great rest of your week! 📚

[@jaepingsu]

Apparently I decided to ring in the end of the week with some comfort KZbin, thank you for making my Friday work less dull! If you're still needing Sarah J Maas plot summary I love the ones from "Cari can read." I thiiink she's done both Crescent City books. She has a really fun energy about her summaries, and any poking fun at the books are from a place of love since she's a fan. 💜📚

[@sandybergeron834]

It's cold here in Massachusetts, but perfect for staying in and diamond painting! Sarah Maas's books are on my list to listen to, but I just restarted Pillars of the Earth because a sequel just came out. I always like to restart a whole series before continuing on. Anyone else? 📚

[@DiamondsandWashi]

Yes! I really enjoy rereading a series before reading a new release 🥰 Pillars of Earth is on my reading list for someday, too!

[@pamelafoley6211]

📖 Hey Katie!! Love your WIP n chat’s as always. I would love to see the canvas you sealed and tested against the elements. Someday in a video I would love to see your pen collection, your go-to pens, and what qualities they have that make them your favorites ❤

[@DPshootingirl]

📚 working on DAC Pineapple Juice. Thank you!

[@lauriejoseph8478]

So glad you had a great visit back home with your family!❤

[@jenniferhaley6603]

Glad you had a good trip and got your snow fill. Love your mug! Thanks for the WIP & chat. You start out my week! Have a good week.📚

[@Rich_1989]

📖 thank you for keeping me company! Have a great week.

[@trudilawrence9899]

I have only just found you like yesterday 😊 your voice is so relaxing!! I buy a lot from Craft Buddy. Normally the canvas is already mounted and ready to go on the wall. Your lines are so straight....mine are a tad wonky. Watching from UK ❤

[@alexhache7190]

Saw it afterward but loved it! I am now subscribed 📚 I was doing a crochet project for give away to my women circle here in Canada 🧶 take care love!

[@Darlene-123abc]

I’m so glad your canvas was ok in the rain 😊 📚I love your shoutout to Karen Puzzles. I’ve been watching her videos too and her love of puzzles is just contagious.

[@user-fp3fw8bp1q]

📚I’m working on my first Diamond Art Club canvas, Randal Spangler, Beartime Stories. Loving the quality of this kit, bright,sparkling colors and the excellent printing on the canvas. I start my day with a hot cup of coffee and DP…last year it was Jigsaw puzzles. I was surprised to see some of the jigsaw puzzle pictures are also the same ones in the DP world. Have a great day. 😊

[@LisaNewf]

Yellow Dog does sell larger trays, Katie. I have two sizes and love them. I have a couple with a raised ledge which are my favourites. 📚❤

[@mycreativeheart4159]

Lisa...I haven't placed an order with Yellow Dog yet. I'm a beginner DP'er. Would you recommend the raised ledge over the regular one?? How about large size over regular size? Do you recommend the lid option? I've only ever used the DAC trays. Thx for your feedback ❤

[@LisaNewf]

I personally like the raised ledge as it keeps the extra drills out of the way of the lined up ones, but I also love my regular tray from them too. I prefer the smaller size, but I did buy a large one too for when I have large areas of color blocking and need a lot more drills in my tray. I don't usually use a cover but when I have a lot of drills to pour out, I like the cover. From Yellow Dog you can get both a full cover and also a partial cover - I like both. Hope this helps. @@mycreativeheart4159

[@ChaosToClarityPlans]

I use toothpicks to clean out my multi-placers. 💡 😊

[@thenoradixon]

I love starting my weeks off with your Monday WIP and CHATS!!! ❤Is your Yellow Dog tray Spicy Copper Silk or Cinnamon Bronze? It’s gorgeous!!!

[@DiamondsandWashi]

Thank you! I went back and checked, and my order confirmation says the color is “red/gold/purple” - I hope that helps!

[@lisamcfadden8298]

I just made my first small shop purchase today!

[@jenniferzyren7521]

I would like to see a comparison video of La Lune mostly because I’m curious about the rendering styles. It’s always fun to see how different shops render paintings. But zero pressure! And I’m so sorry about that six hour layover. Those unexpected wait times are soooo tough, especially with little ones. And yay for Karen puzzles! I love her channel too. 📚thanks as always for keeping me company while I diamond paint. I’m plugging away at A Night from JGS.

[@jasminevazquez1556]

Congratulations on finding the dragon mug. My son works at a local Starbucks and always gets the “new” mugs, cups and tumblers. He actually brought this one home a few weeks ago and I thought it was a unicorn until I saw your previous video looking for them. I did a google search just to see what it looked like and realized I had it sitting in my cabinet. 😂 It really is pretty. ❤🦄🐉

[@DiamondsandWashi]

How fun!! And how lucky - I’d have cupboards absolutely overflowing with mugs and cold cups 😂

[@RichelleJones-np2du]

Personally I would like to see a post review on it especially after it being rain on just for the sealer alone😂 and I really really want to see a comparison of this la lune and jadeds la lune

[@lrhodey]

That dragon mug is gorgeous! You are going to be in so much trouble this year. LOL! Have a great week! 📕📗📘📙

[@BeverlyHarbin-fd8uv]

Hi Katie! I was just wondering how supportive your husband is of all the time you spend on diamond painting.

[@hooksbookspodcast]

Enjoyed hearing what you’ve been up to! Thanks for keeping me company while I’m working 📚

[@NannaTheBear]

Thank you for your company while I'm working on Lost with you by Richard Lorenz 📚 I would love to see the comparison video 🤩

[@feliciaP406]

I’d really love to see a post review of La Lune! It’s always fun to see finished kits even if the shop is closed or if a kit is no longer available. 📚

[@ChristyBigelow]

Thanks for the wip and chat. Have a wonderful week. 📚

[@Diamondsandstuff-tm6ux]

I love that canvas! So fun to see you work on it! 📖📚😁❤️👍🏻

[@rebeccahutto1701]

It would have so been me, I would have forgotten the canvas as well. I do enjoy the different canvases you do but I’d not judge over too many of one or the other. I just enjoy the time. I am working on a DAC my daughter gave me for Christmas and I jus5 try to do what brings me joy. I have major anxiety over things that I replay constantly and then depression. I do like that you make this something anyone can go through and we just need to care for ourselves. Thank you for being you and just sharing your time. I really look forward to my time doing the videos.📖📓📒

[@theprincipalpainter]

Just started A Court Of Thorns and Roses. This piece reminds me possibly of Farrah! (Not sure of the spelling of her name because I’m listening on Audible.) Love it!

[@DiamondsandWashi]

Oh girl, welcome to the world of ACOTAR and Sarah J Maas 👏🏻 It’s Feyre - I listened on Audible too and ended up googling so many names for the spelling. Even ones you’d think you know how they’re spelled, nope! SJM makes it “fantasy” 😂

[@theprincipalpainter]

@@DiamondsandWashi I’m showing my age! I was thinking Farrah Fawcett!!!😂😂😂Acotar is new to me too! I thought it was Prythian?😂😂I clearly have a lot to learn! I’m loving it though!!

[@DiamondsandWashi]

@@theprincipalpainter Oh no, ACOTAR is the acronym for the title 😂 It’s for the lazy hahaha!

[@GailMcCormick]

Honestly not sure a post review is helpful now that the shop has closed. Not sure a comparison really is either unless you just want to do it out of curiosity! Glad you made it home safely. And that dragon mug is so cute! I understand now!

[@GailMcCormick]

PS I agree Karen Puzzles makes great videos! I also enjoy watching @puzzlephile, though he doesn't post as much.

[@CiennaHayes-dd8lk]

📚Hi I’m not the most advanced diamond painter I’m still doing “snack sized” diamond paintings but with my next diamond painting I’m thinking about getting a normal sized diamond painting. 🙂

[@dutch_tinkerbel]

Thank you for the wip and chat 📖☃️

[@Diamondin_the_rough]

📚 I have just started diamond painting, only on my second project. I have found your channel to be one of the best for info, and now it's just a comfy chat as I work on my kit as well! I'm looking forward to playing your older videos! Thanks!!

Aww, thank you! Welcome to the craft, and to my channel! 🥰 I hope you love both!

[@Queen_of_Diamonds_4]

📖📕 hey Katie! That canvas is beautiful! I am so glad that you found your dragon mug! It will be a beautiful edition to your desk! I think we need clips of you "walking" through Ralphs to get the mug once the lady put it back. 🤣😂

[@DiamondsandWashi]

Oh my gosh, I was so tempted 😂 But I was too busy speed-walking up to grab it!

[@elizabethwarman9028]

📚📚📚📚Hi Katie, good morning from Los Angeles County. It is pouring rain here. Glad you had a great time in Ohio. Flight delays are a bummer. I don't have any problems flying to Maui, but returning to LAX and home my jetlag will last at least a day. I am happy for you finding your Starbucks Dragon Mug. I got from TEMU Dragon T-shirts and Bracelets. At least I don't think my caregiver returned them. Bad enough she took all my credit cards. I have been talking to a new Therapist for about two months. I really like her. I need her to help me stop my impulsively shopping. This is part of my ADHD. I don't understand why Americans are so against psychological therapy. Considering the fact most of them need therapy. Thank you very much for your gift. Love everything especially the drills. I believe I will use them on Golden Cocker Spaniel by Peggy Collins. Which is my next project. Please keep good thoughts for my caregiver Sylvia she has something wrong with her Aorta.

[@lisatonkinson3565]

I am so scatterbrained that leaving a diamond painting in the rain is definitely something I’d do lol. We can just call it a totally on purpose experiment testing the sealant’s water proofing. I’d love to see a review of it even just for that. I adore Karenpuzzles, she makes me want to puzzle but space issues get in the way, I have a couple I bought a long while ago but my fiancé and I just have to get on it. 📚

[@willekegietema7583]

Thanks for the lovely video, Katie! It's a pity you gave up creative writing , but, honestly, I did too....nice to know you are still a 📚 lover! Love from the Netherlands, Willeke

[@elizabethang695]

By the way, I placed an order to the yellow dog design ca. I ordered two trays: Shimmer Purple and Apple Green Silk. 😊

[@mycreativeheart4159]

Those are the colours I'm going to order!!🤣

[@jenz9145]

I have also been having issues with my DAC multi and single placers. I've ordered several and half of them are too large to fit in any pen. It's a major bummer because they are so expensive and wonderful when they work, but half are completely unusable. I did email customer service with pictures of one of them but they said that's how they are supposed to be and wouldn't replace it. Love your channel....hope you have a wonderful week! 📖 📕 📘

[@DiamondsandWashi]

Bummer! I did find a fix in this case, after the video! I thought to try swapping out the single and multiplacer, and they both fit in the opposite spots just fine. I’m sorry about the trouble with yours!

[@jenz9145]

I'll give that a try! Thank you!

[@cynthiagant774]

📚 Always great company. Thank you. 💎💐

[@sherrysterner5276]

Another great video and so glad you enjoyed Ohio and the snow. Hopefully you got back to California before the freeze here. 📚

[@rainravenscraftingcorner2907]

Im busy getting rid of stuff too. We are going tiny. I have a whole slew of appointments coming up for an ASD assessment and it’s an odd feeling.

[@AndiAdams-xd5zg]

I’m working on Love Bard that has the perforated plastic. I’m not sure about it yet, but I’m giving it some time (I don’t like change 😅 or being told what to do either). It’s hard for me to find where I need to put my washi tape so I feel like that takes up more time than I want to take so I’m on the fence. But I definitely wouldn’t want a more distinct line in case I don’t want to do that measurement. We’ll see what they do I guess lol We definitely need a post review of your last finish because I’m interested to see it after it’s been in the rain 😂 Have a great week! 📚

[@yessicagray1220]

📚📖

[@vickipeterson3422]

I haven’t tried the perforated canvas covers yet, but I’m apprehensive for all of the reasons you gave. I love using my washi tape in whatever bite size I want. I’ve been concerned about how the perforated breaks would impact cutting where I want to. I also abhor the idea of putting lines over the perforations. I want to see the canvas. It was like you crawled inside my brain and found all my thoughts on the matter. 📓

[@jenniferklayer5259]

We're staying warm here in OK. The ice storm went through last night. Power is on but afraid to leave the house cause the deck out front is so slick you'll take one step and go weeee! I just went through my stash and saw I had a lot of canvases from DAC as well. I'm making it a mission to pick up more kits from small shops this year. If I play my cards right this year I'll have my own appartement. I plan to take two weeks off to go back to my parents house and go through what I wanna take vs donate. I'm an only child and have a lot of things so that will require a small pod for sure

[@Miranda_Randall]

No doubt about going weee because I definitely did that exact thing when it went through here 😂 I stepped on the first step and went flying down the rest of them 😅 not the way i wanting to get down the steps lol

[@DiamondsandWashi]

I have!! I haven’t read Iron Flame yet, but it’s on my list! ☺️

[@Puzzles_and_Diamonds]

So nice to see you are enjoying your experience with the Canadian company accessories! I hope you get to try a pen by Creations Morin one day too! They are really awesome :) I do have a questions, do you find it a bit challenging to multiplace beyond 8-9 round drills with the new thin multiplacers? I found my 12-placer didn't quite "stretch" or match the canvas if I used the full length and I was constantly adjusting drills on the tail end of my placement... Love the channel!! Also it's funny that I discovered diamond painting through Karen Puzzles and that's what lead me to you! :D

[@DiamondsandWashi]

I didn’t realize they had pens until after I ordered the putty! I’d definitely like to try one. I’m definitely running into a little difficulty with large multiplacers matching the grid well once you stretch to the end, but honestly I can’t pinpoint if it’s the placers or the grid on the kits. I typically place the first half down, and then stretch over a bit to make the rest line up a little better. And usually end up going back to fiddle a little bit with the singleplacer.
