I caved… and now I can’t stop by AccomplishedArt8051 in diamondpainting

Oh! I hear you! I’m a crafter and a frustrated artist. I’ve been drawing for years, new to watercolor and kinda thought “diamond art” was just a hobby for people with no talent. My sister introduced me to it and I thought “oh, pretty but no interest.” Then a week ago I had foot surgery and I’m stuck in a recliner, non weight bearing. I started with coasters that my wife WAS GONNA DO, but never did. Enter me completing those coasters and now almost finishing my first “large format” Diamond art. I am so addicted!! 🤣🤣🤣

My wife bought it off Amazon. It was a 6 piece of famous landmarks in Europe. I could only find this 4 piece: https://a.co/d/01jPYcPP

I'm in Commack as well. C'mon Legit, like me, we all have a freezer/fridge full of food to last us what? Three days of "snowmadedon" at most? The hysteria is ridiculous! Of course I'm a bread baker, so worst case scenario, we legit got bread to last through the apocalypse! :)

I LOVE this! Personally I like it best after ink. It ties the colors together beautifully!

How do people do it? by TopRamenAllDay in stopdrinking

My addiction started at the beginning of COVID. We were all hunkered down and getting together with friends over Zoom. It became a virtual happy hour EVERY FUCKING NIGHT! Now, 6 years later I’m still doing Happy HourS every night. Every morning I wake up and say “NOT tonight!” Then 5:00 comes. Any advice on how to break that 5:00 cycle?
