Tip: I use a timer and set it for 30 minutes and after that I stretch and then do wrist rolls too and I keep track of my time in a book and add it up for the entire project to see how long it takes. Thanks for your videos.

A much quicker way to find missing diamonds is to hold it up and look at it from the back in daylight- the holes will show..

I like laying down one drill at a time it challenging and relaxing to me

Thanks for the parchment paper tip! Using it on my newest one with the stupid cellophane on this larger painting

Thank you for these great tips. I bought a 150 x 100 cm Starry Night Painting from Paints with Diamonds. I didn't do the conversion into feet and inches or I never would have bought it lol. I'm enjoying it and taking it one section at a time

I love the detail in large pieces, so I take it a little at a time as you said. I love the finished piece, very rewarding and worth the time put into it. Thanks for these tips. I need to focus on the exercises during as I can sit for way too long.

Hi, another thing that we could use, instead of a pool noodle, is the cardboard roll inside wrapping paper - it's just like a huge paper towel tube :)

I found out that not all parchment paper is equal. One brand got stock on my canvas. I do a test now, lesson learned. Thank you for your videos.

I just stumbled unto your video, and so glad I did so. Thank you so much for the tips on working on large canvases! I have two "epic" projects which I want to complete by year-end, and your tips have given additional tools (and encouragement) to take on the challenge. Since your video was posted almost a year ago, I have no doubt that you have now completed it - so I am going to browse your other videos in hopes to see your comleted "epic" masterpiece. Thank you again!!
