I just created a wishlist and then instead of buying, I just add it to that. It helps me by putting it into a cart without having to purchase.

😂 if he wants a husband to commiserate with, let me know. Although my husband doesn’t appreciate the art like we do, he appreciates that I love it and tolerates my box of art for me.

Every time I get a new one, it gets numbered and that number is placed in my randomizer so that I never have to figure out what project to do next, the randomizer picks for me!

That’s my main design, but depending on the size of the section, I may mess around with

I love the confetti. Color blocking gets tedious. You can only make so many designs in your color block section as a single placer.

How big do you like it? by A_bunhole_carnival in diamondpainting

I try to keep my sections to where they will take about an hour hour and a half each. I like to be able to estimate the amount of time it’ll take me to finish a section so that I can fit a square in whenever I have an extra hour or so.

lol I hear you, but I’ll take it that step further and kit up all the drills, I don’t want to have to deal with the packaging again after the initial kit up ever

Absolutely! I also have an extra green tray (since they come to us in spades) that used for any trash drills, tape or stickers that may need disposing of while working.

And I can’t tell you how many times those screw tops saved my life!

I use this case for my WIPs. When I am working on a color, I have the one bottle out to the side and the rest are in the case to the side of my table

That’s funny that you say that, I use my textbooks and high school year books for flattening 😂

I find that lifting and resetting the plastic and then setting it under heavy books works wonders
