Me sitting here knowing that a minute ago I was trying to pick up the beads with no pink wax

I remember when my father was a miner he would collect beautiful pieces of crystals & opals & sit for hours and make coffee tables with peacocks (always birds) & sell them or give them away took him weeks

Your explanation was so clear and concise and you’ve demonstrated things very well. Often on YouTube people go into too much detail before they even get started on what they are showing. I appreciate your clarity. It has me excited to try this new hobby. I’ve given some elementary age kids to my grandchildren, and they are already enjoying them. I’m looking forward to trying this out myself. Thank you for your clarity and help in getting me started!

I didn’t know what this was called so tried to look this up on Amazon and my searches said:
1: puzzle with beads
2: paper with beads
3: beaded paper
4: that cool puzzle with beads

Will I ever do this..? No. Will I watch endless YouTube videos learning about it anyway...? Absolutely.

I started diamond painting this summer to take my mind off of pain from shoulder surgery on my non dominant shoulder. It is so meditative it totally worked, less pain medicine! Instead of 6 months recovery it only took my 3 and a half months but I am still doing diamond paintings! I am on my 8th one I like the bigger ones. My first one was round then I switched to square drills. I listen to audio books while I diamond paint. So relaxing!!

When covid hit I decided I would start crafting I've made & gave away 90% of everything I have made countless Tye dyed shirts, wreaths, flower arrangements, wood work, jewelry making, candle making even paint pouring. You name it I've done it now
to TRY THIS!!!!

[ScientificallyStupid]

I tried this bc I was looking for something more relaxing than coloring (I have the kind of anxiety that causes me to deliberate endlessly over what color something should be) and I initially thought, "well, this is a cute design, but most of them are not for me, I probably won't do another project like this". Instead my husband saw it and asked me to make something cheery and welcoming for his office (he counsels at-risk young people) and it just sort of snowballed from there- now I'm completely addicted and I can't wait for the time of day when I get to listen to my podcasts and "paint".

Am I the only one who does one color at a time? It drives my sister and niece crazy when they see me do that 🤣

I've had my diamond painting all wrapped up from the day it arrived over 2 months ago now, being too nervous to even attempt to start it but tonight I took the kit out of its packaging and thought "You Tube" I'm so glad I did because your video has explained each and every little detail from beginning to end in order to get the diamond picture done, Thank you Claire and yes I am indeed going to begin mine as soon as I've sent this message, so excited to see the outcome of my picture now 😁

Thank you so much! I purchased my first kit, opened it and was mortified at what I saw. It actually brought me anxiety and I was getting ready to run for the snack cupboard, but instead I decided to do a search on YouTube. That’s when I discovered you! I was going to let it sit there and now I feel confident to start creating a picture that I think is so beautiful. Your video was so well explained and so detailed. I literally cannot think of a question for you. Thank you for taking the anxiety and headache out of this very economical and affordable new hobby. I’m elated! Again thank you. Liked and subscribed! ❤

[shannonpalm]

Your voice is so calming and encouraging! I needed something for anxiety! Thank you so much! You are my first video I watched since my first purchase of diamond art today! I am actually doing it successfully thanks to you right now.

My boyfriends mom recently got into diamond painting and she sent me a kit through the mail, at first I was very intimidated but as a make up artist I love a challenge. I watched your video once I had already started and I’m so glad I watched your video! Using the opposite side of the pan to pick up multiple drills definitely save me some time!

[bethcordell]

I’m just about to open my first project and wanted tips before getting everything out. This is a great “how to” video. I appreciate the speed that you express yourself. Thanks for the explanation of what a “drill” is and other tips. Other videos assume the person watching knows all the terminology. Great video. Hope you show your finished project. Thanks.

[lorihamlin]

That was exactly the video I was looking for. Ordering a kit for a granddaughter but now I’m thinking maybe for grandma instead! Excellent job of instruction and very helpful tips. Good job.

[jamielynmagalit]

this it the most clear turtorial i’ve ever watched

[mountaingirl]

Wow! That's really good to know that the colors from Diamond Painting and Cross Stitching are the same. Thank you!! It's probably not common knowledge.

[harriettezmalloy]

I’ve been wondering about diamond painting. You have explained it so well! And you’ve given wonderful tips too. Thank you! I think I’m going to give it a try.

[karenberry]

Wondered what diamond painting was. Google brought your video up in the search. I was really thrilled with how you explained what it was. The explaination of what was in a kit and how they are used plus the cross stitch idea what you should be aware as precautions in working. Your camera did a great job showing how a light box made it easier to see the symbols. The suggestions for removing creases, moving drills, and reasons for storing and using stick on labels on little storage boxes as well as slicing strips in the adhesive protective cover were really appreciated. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and hints.

[lostsol]

Thank you so very much! Especially the part about how to pick up spilled drills, ' cause I know I'm gonna do that first! I picked this up because I do cross stitch, needlepoint, crochet, bad paintings, colouring books and giant puzzles and I thought "You know, I don't have enough to do." I'm excited and really appreciate your beginners steps. ❤
