Diamond Painting June Waffle | 10 June 2023

Settle in and let’s diamond paint. The idea behind this event is for you to dedicate a little time each day during June to be your 'me time'. I'll be here for company and chatter.

Hi Rebecca. Working today on the penultimate section of my June Waffle canvas. I spent the day in the garden, the weather is going to be good tomorrow so I will be able to finish off all my garden jobs and then next week sit outside in the garden and read a book for a couple of hours and admire all my hard work. We have a summer planned with several barbecues so will be so nice to show all the hard work off and feel proud to entertain in a nice space. Just waiting for the garden contractor to lay the bit of grass and soak paving and will be so happy.
I managed to get what I wanted on last nights shop ;lunch which included the tray bundle so very happy. Enjoy the nice weather

Hi Rebecca! Great Waffle as always. 🙂 Just wanted to say that I LOVE the idea of you taking progress pictures of your mystery painting for a slideshow. Also, I can’t wait to see you work on one of those super high color paintings from DAS! Have a great day. 🐝

Hi Rebecca! I decided to work on one of my cross stitch projects during the waffle. It’s a gift for my eldest sister and I’m hoping to have it done by Christmas, I’m at 35%, wish me luck 😊. I used to cross stitch every day for at least 3 hours, but haven’t touched a needle and thread since I found Diamond painting. So one of the talking points today really hit home, about taking breaks from hobbies and coming back to them 😊. Look forward to tomorrow’s waffle ❤

Hello Rebecca. I am enjoying watching any video you have been posting. I have been laid up and not able to diamond paint for 8 months. So thank you for posting, I know it’s not the same me doing it myself, so I’m enjoying you.

I'm from Ohio in the U.S. and I grew up hanging out clothes on the line. I miss my sheets on the line! We don't have enough backyard/ garden for a clothes line now, but I would in a heartbeat if I could.

Hi I got my order today and I can say I love it so I will be ordering more from you and I love the chats on June as I listen when I am doing my diamond art of my two nices and nephew for my sister xxcxx

Electric clothes horses are a god send. My cousin introduced me to them when she was in uni. I do recommend. Quite economical too, especially when it’s too warm for radiators but too cold for outside drying.

Hi Rebecca I finally woke up and joined the Facebook group! I had to giggle when you spoke about the weather as I seriously consider wearing a light jumper when it is 24C or below. Here in Brisbane we are use to much higher temperatures and 30C is nothing to us. My sister lives in the UK and often laughs at me when I complain I’m cold and it is only 20C! Shows you what we get used to since we both grew up in South Africa but now experiences temperature very differently based on where we live. Thanks again for a great waffle.

Watching you and i got one colour left on spirit of flight, so there will be a finish at the end off it. Wohoooo

Hello Rebecca, I really have been enjoying the June waffle, even if the filming and posting schedule must be hectic for you. In regards to the decision wheel, I think it is a fun idea to do paintings this way, especially with a full image. A good change up from painting in ones normal patterns of doing things. I can see sectioning off a Mystery kit or using cover sheets for added mystery and using the randomness of the decision wheel.

Hi Rebecca. I'm enjoying the waffle alot. And my replacement pen came today right before today's video went up after my dog knocked my other one off the table and broke it the other day. Yay! Day 11 will be the last part of my current WIP, but I've already kitted up my next project. After finishing today, I went on to do a woodburning project which also included painting because I was just in the zone. So thank you for giving me the motivation to get up and do my crafts, because with MH and daily migraines, it's difficult to find that motivation.

Thanks for another waffle Rebecca, I am out and about doing the adulylting things. I hope you have a great day.

Hi Rebecca, hope you're doing well and thank you for all the waffles so far.
With about 2 rows of cover papers left on my 40x50 square I ran out of dmc 814 diamonds. Thankfully I have plenty of them in my spares. After finishing my section a little before you, I used the last bit of the waffle to top up my pot for dmc 814.

With the heatwave we currently have I'm kind of speeding through my ongoing wips quicker than I thought I would so who knows... Maybe I'll have to use a future wip & waffle to kit up a new painting.

Hi Rebecca, I used to love the sound of rain and thunder. However, now in the job that I work and the place that I now live, thunder equals lightening which equals the possibility of fires due to the lightening. When fires start, it is very possible that I will be working seven days a week and on call even on my off hours as we work closely with CAL Fire (California Fire) and CAL OES (California Office of Emergency Services). I live in Northern California in a wooded area. Just beforfe I started this new job, hubby and I actually got evacuated for a fire that was burning less than two miles from us. We were evacuated for two weeks and I started my new job during that time. When we returned home from evacuation (home was just fine), hubby had found ember trails on our front walk close to our house. We were lucky as there was a town that was completely obliterated by fire. I still would never move away from the mountains as it is beautiful year round. I am hoping that fire season is not bad this year as we had record rain and snowfall. I don't get to hear the rainfall anymore as our house if VERY soundproofed! I don't even hear the sirens when our elderly neighbor has the fire department come.

I keep our house around 67 degrees all year round, that’s about 19 or 20 degrees for you. 😊

Hi again love, its Halina! Recently got more storage, a light board stand and more paintings and I'm so excited
I love diamond painting so much and I love this channel. My question for you today is: Have you gotten any other family members into diamond painting?

[kerrygold]

I did use multi placer to finish spirit of flight, because i was so excited to have it finished lol

[allthingskraftybykaz]

Hi Rebecca! Loving the weather that we are having. I have been playing catch up on videos as I missed two days. I’m now all caught up. I have bagged myself a plum tray, the limited edition pen, a couple of metal tips and a green metal pen (I think that’s it). I also bagged myself four of the Abbie’s diamond painting putties from Diamond Art Studio two in apple-cinnamon and two in peppermint cream.

Hello, although i multiplace (up to 4) i still nudge every single diamond after with my single placer. Can 't understand how that is cheating haha. You are tackling a lot of white, while i keep myself sane with all the black in my painting with your waffles. Thank you!
