When you called it a small canvass I laughed nervously. But seriously my cats hate diamond painting but they love flipping the tray and watching the drills go flying in the air which is how I am going to justify never finishing a canvass.

Loved your video. Kitting up & down is MY favorite part of diamond painting as well. The Harbor Freight containers are my favorite to work from. Wide open top that's easy to access. The lids hold up well over time. Had mine for a couple of years & none have broken. I'm currently using the tic tac style containers from Joanne to organize left over drills. I have a set for DMC round drills, DMC square drills & Diamond Dots round drills.
I'm glad to hear I'm not alone in completing these canvases just for the sake of doing them. I've gifted many of them, framed &hung a few in my home. But most are stored flat in my craft closet, having served the purpose of giving me a calming, peaceful activity to occupy my hands and mind while my Kindle reads me a story.
You've included lots of great, helpful tips for beginners. Thanks for sharing.

No kidding, I started diamond painting because of you and I couldn’t be happier. My husband is in the Navy and gets deployed often so it makes my days go by faster. Thank you and I’m hoping you’re still thinking about doing Patreon!

I’ve done wayyyy to many of these things for a few years. Another tip, on the edges of the actual canvas, there’s sometimes a little bit of hangover or the sticky part. I line my painting with masking tape (or washi tape) and then fuzzy doesn’t stick to the edge

[elysabethpoodle]

It amazes me how huge diamond painting has become in the past year. I discovered DP a year ago and have become so addicted to it also. It's great to listen to videos on the same topic because you can always learn from different people.

I had no idea those numbers were stickers! This is life changing haha

[kathymetz]

I just started diamond painting so it’s been two weeks. And I love it. My favorite part is putting the diamonds in the little containers. I am hooked

[rmkenny]

I love this! I use the Elizabeth ward storage and I also put a strip of washi tape on the side of each one then place the sticker of the symbol and DMC number (that comes with Diamond Art Club kits) on top of the washi tape. That way when I’m done I can remove the washi tape/sticker with no residue on my little containers.

I love my Harbor Freight containers for my smaller projects!

[shirleymason]

I did that one and I loved it someone very rude grabbed mine (4 yrs ago) and said they wanted it and took it, last one he got! You’re gonna love that wintry wonder horse! 😊

[countrygirl]

I agree. I prefer the one with screw on lids. I have that same one. It's amazing. It costs a lot less than Elizabeth Ward and, in my opinion, is more secure. I love it. I think I got mine for $15 on Amazon. It came with straighteners as well. I had never tried them. I am now obsessed with the straighteners. They make everything look perfect!!

[FreyaWarr]

Oh man, I’m so impatient, I always kit as I go. I get to excited to start the painting.

[heatherfranklin]

I am on my second one so far. I got 40 small containers from the dollar tree. 10 per pack for $1. They seem to be working great and hold two-three packs of one color. When I'm done I use baggies for the left over drills.

[craftybookdragon]

Got one of the black zipper containers for Christmas. Total game changer.

I love my harbor freight containers, I have tried others, but those are my favorite

[ginamaxey]

I was looking for a quick & simple way of how the heck a beginner stores beads easily. Your video was the best I found, Im on my 3rd ever pic.🌻✌

[brendadvorak]

I am an organizer also. So glad to see your method. Thank you for such great ideas.

[Anna-nj]

❤❤❤❤ OMG I have that exact same picture of the Winter horse..
Amazing how easy cheaper way to buy things 😊😊
