HOW and WHERE to order DRILLS for HAED (heaven and earth designs) diamond painting + Unboxing

I'll show you how and where to order the drills that you need for a HAED or Heaven and Earth Designs diamond painting. I'll be unboxing the drills that I've ordered.

💎 Product information:
Company I ordered the drills from - Smith Beads
Price drills: 233 bags of square drills including shipping to France:
£ 38,-/€ 44,- / $ 53,-

Another company for drills for a HAED canvas that comes highly recommended.
Cooper Diamond Art (Brandy)
For me - because I live in France this wasn't a good option (mainly because of the shipping costs), but if you live in the States then I would definitely recommend getting a quote from them:

The diamond paintings that I'm talking about in this video are all from Heaven and Earth Designs.
The diamond painting section on their site is called: Crown Jewel canvases (it's a separate tab on their website):

Some background information about me:
I'm Lisette, 45 years old and i'm Dutch (hence the accent). Twelve years ago I moved to France with Mr A. where we converted an old farmhouse into a Bed&Breakfast. We love living in the French countryside together with our girls, Marie (9y) and Annick (7y). I'm quite new to crafting. In October 2020 I discovered Paint by Numbers for adults and quickly thereafter Diamond Painting. I was hooked immediately. This channel is a way to share my passion for crafts with likeminded people and take on some fun, bold and crazy challenges. On this channel I make sure that I only show legally licensed and/or copyright free artwork. If you want to follow along on all my weird crafting adventures then consider subscribing to my channel. I would love to have you as a follower.

Thank you Lisette, can I just add that where ever your viewers are in the world, they can ask us for a quote too, we will try to competitive on price ., looking forwards to the next video

[LilyDiamondPaints]

Hi Lisette! I’m glad this video popped up! I thought you started ordering now!🤭🤭

[antheaczarna]

Hi Lisette, glad you like the drills at this early stage. I’m looking forward to seeing what you think of them when you start drilling. Very happy with mine....hoping you feel the same about yours. Oh, the nerves that come after someone spends money based on a recommendation you gave them 😂

[KarenisNo]

This is funny Lisette..was just looking at HAED site and wondering about where to order drills..perfect timing😂👍😍😁 Thank you!

[stephaniegreer]

Hi Lisette! Did you try out the drills on your canvas yet? I just am trying out my first HAED canvases, kitting up is quite a challenge for me with all the colors. My drills came in strips like yours, they are OK. I really got spoiled by the quality of DAC and Dreamer drills, the ones I bought in AliExpress just aren’t quite as nice! But so far it’s coming out fine.

[EmeraldsandFairyLights]

Thanks for the video 😃 I have my eye on one of the canvases and I’m keeping track of my left over drills trying to save them up for that one, the process or ordering seems like so much work 😬. I’m excited to see your unboxing 😊

[coralgonzalez]

Hi, thank you for the information. Very interesting.

[fithedpaddict]

I love Smith beads I always use them. I have had issues in past with rowe diamonds or bad communication. But never had any issues with Smith beads.

[NeedleNeedle]

Oh wow! Thank you so much for doing this video! I have my eye on a certain little red fox that HAED offers, but I’ve been intimidated by needing to buy drills! 😩

[anitanoordenbos]

De prijs valt echt nog wel mee voor zoveel drills!! Ik hoop echt dat ze van goede kwaliteit zijn als je ze gaat gebruiken!

[LillianCrawfishDE]

I purchased the canvas for Soaring Free 2 by Joan Marie from HAED/Crown Jewel (my favorite butterfly image ever!) . I'm accumulating my leftover drills for it, so I'm not sure when I'll be starting. I think have a couple DPs I can do in the meantime 😃

[lauraheinen-potgieser]

Ooohh ik wil ook head proberen maar wil eerst wat van mijn dp’s afmaken😅. Heb je dp deutschland overwogen voor je steentjes? Ik heb mijn Josephine Wall bijna af en vond ze wel redelijk, ben erg benieuwd naar je review van smith beads! Weet jij toevallig een goed bedrijf voor een blank canvas poured glue? Bedankt voor je video’s, leuke projecten heb je😊

[life.w.lindsay]

Smiths comes very highly recommended from all my European friends. I'm really surprised to hear about Hankins, people rave about them.

[craftingwithvictoriacrafti]

Hello can I call you Lisa? And also pretty canvas I think when you start it then finished will look great 😊

[scrappingsylvia]

Hi Lisette. I ordered mini Serenity . I need to order the drills but do I choose round or square drills? Thank you.
