I worked full time and took care of my husband who was an invalid so I did Diamond painted to relax. He passed November 2021 so I DP to pass time and heal
So sorry for your loss. I am sort of using DPing in the same way except it’s me. I have triple organ failure and I’m on dialysis 3x a week. I have become severely depressed because of it Several of my doctors told me to pick one of hobbies backup. This is t one that stuck. I look forward to coming home and working on a Dplng. I’m slow but it is satisfy.
I wish I had found diamond painting at the beginning of the pandemic. I will never ever be able to afford the paintings you share,but your stash is amazing! I finally learned how to multi-place correctly by watching your old how-to videos. Your channel is my happy place.
Your stash is simply amazing! Myself, I have a stash of 0, yes zero😲 but my case is special because I am a recovering hoarder so I have to keep a very tight reign on myself or it can easily get out of hand. My boyfriend is paying for my next kit because he knows I need to be constantly working on one for my mental health so I am very grateful for his assistance ☺
@@dianalovescolors thank you so much for the kind words! Love our community here & I at least get to watch these stash videos & feel like I am living vicariously through these creators
I have a little stash but I'm good with it. I'm always in awe of the stash collections. Never feel bad about the amount you have, I think it's a badge of honor to have a large a stash. I love seeing your favorites.
hubby says I can't hang out with you anymore, lol. I just started diamond painting not that long ago so not that big of stash for that but over all craft stash is huge. I love crafts, I like trying all the crafts, that means collecting all the things, for all the crafts, and all the pretties, and look a new shiny.
My stash is slowly inching toward 200. It will definitely take a lifetime for me to complete. I only accomplish 1 per month. I accept that I'm both a collector and a painter of diamond art. 🥴🤷🏽♀️🥰
Same. I've told my husband it's up to him whether he wants to sell them or not, but anything that doesn't get sold MUST be donated to a women's shelter for women and their children escaping domestic abuse. I will forever haunt him if a single one goes in the trash. 😠
I have been DP-ing for one month. I’ve completed 5, have 1 WIP and 19 in my stash. I am binge watching you and have learned everything I know about DP thanks to you. Our tastes could not be more different but your talent and knowledge blow me away. Happy New Year 🎉❤
I couldn't even get to the stash because your nails are simply elegant perfection... Just enough, not too little, not too much. As far as your stash beautiful, as DAC says, do what makes you sparkle.
I love diamond painting I started in 2021 and I am older and still work but have health issues, I love watching you because I can see paintings that I might want and it’s fun
Love, love, love. I'm jealous now. I only have 3 in my stash and will start one on Monday for my first event Claws and Paws. I'm the opposite of you I love landscapes. I do love some of the princess ones of Mandies I will definitely look into her licensing as I also do cross stitch. Thanks for sharing and you should never have to have disclaimers. When I could afford to travel we collected shot glasses and I probably have more coloring books than I will ever color especially since I found Diamond painting. 💜💜💜
Love your stash videos Katie. Looks like you put a lot of work into showing them all and then you have to put them all back. Thank you for taking the time and effort to share them. 💕
Hi Katie, thank you so much for the lovely video! I saw so many kits that I have in my stash, that I feel no longer guilty about having them...in the Netherlands I got some nasty reactions when I showed my stash....like you I am a sucker for Randall Spangler and Mandie Manzano kits. Love from the Netherlands, Willeke
Fellow Dutchy here. Who was nasty about it? If it was friends, I’d reconsider the friendship, that’s not very supportive. I don’t understand why people feel the need to do that. Most people have hobbies which they spend time and money on. Or they spend it on restaurants, vacations, possessions, alcohol, you name it. It’s your money 🤷🏼♀️
I just started diamond painting and I found this video by searching for people who mentioned different places to get them. Thank you so much for this video, it was fun and super helpful
I love stash videos!! You know I have a large stash, I also have some that I’d like to sell, mostly ones I bought early on before I had a good feel for what I loved working on. I enjoyed hearing about your rainy day kits especially 🥰
That was fun. I found myself buying kit after kit like an addict LOL. I have so many to work on but so so many more I would like to have. I found early on my kits were small and not very good quality. Now I’ve learned about the artists and companies that are quality dp that my focus has shifted. Perhaps one day I’ll be able to make a completed dp video. Many Blessings to you.
I've noticed lately that my tastes have changed quite a bit since I first started which was in November of 2020. I didn't used to like the old master paintings and now I love them. I am still particular on those, but I love Van Gogh, Dali (maybe not quite as old, but amazing), Picasso, Bouguereau, Monet, and a bunch of others. Those and full portrait goddess paintings are my thing lately. Tastes will change again I'm sure. Sometimes I will like something one day, put it in my cart and the next week I end up taking it out wondering why I picked it. I know this video is a year old but I love watching stash videos. Your Mandy collection is wonderful!
I have been waiting for this video! 💜💎 You have some really great paintings and a fun style. Thanks for doing all the work to share with us! I started in February of this year and I’m totally addicted. I love my stash so much and I love adding to it. I currently have 86 paintings that I have not completed yet and 3 WIPS.
2 роки тому
Such a beautiful stash!! Finally another person who has a big diamond painting stash as I have!! I also cross stitch and I must say that collecting charts and actually stitch them are 2 different hobbies 🤣🤣
Thanks so much for sharing, I started in April of 2020 also ❤ but of course you know my obsession is diamond painting and Adult Coloring omg you get sucked in so easily and I love them both.
Okay, first of all, the nails. Stunning, gorgeous, perfection, etc. Next, the effort. I commend you on your bravery for making this video, I know from experience that taking out your whole stash is A LOT of work. Your content never ceases to impress! ♥️
How fun! I received my first diamond painting in October of 2020, but I started it a month ago. I currently have 6 in my stash so far. Waiting for a bunch to come in the mail currently!
Love the stash video! I like to see what painting others are drawn to. It's neat to see the similarities and differences in taste! I haven't even been painting for a year and I'm close to 100 paintings! I also crochet and have a pretty good stay of yarn but I usually always buy specific for certain projects.
Love the stash video. You have an amazing collection of incredible paintings and I am sure you will do many of them justice. You should never be uncomfortable about showing your wall of paintings. If you ever do a de-stash would you notify your subscribers in advance even the ones in Canada. Your Randal Spangler collection is awesome. As I am an avid reader as well a addicted to diamond painting I am currently working on So Many Books So Little Time. (2 squares left to do). When you speak about your Unicorn and rainy day paintings I would have to say mine is Bringing Home The Tree. Unfortunately I started diamond painting after that one was gone. I am looking forward to seeing your progress on your new HAED as well. Take care and congrats on a great video.
Wow wow that is an amazing stash. It's so cool that I have a few of the same kits and also I got one that was my unicorn because of you unboxed it. So thank you. I have less the 20 kits in my stash. Great video bye
That was so much fun - awesome stash🤩 I have 15 kits in my 'stash' - hopefully it'll be 17 this coming Monday 😊 My favorite artists are Yuumei Art and Christopher Lovell - am hoping to snag Plague Dr today (fingers crossed 🤞). Thank you for the the wonderful video 💐
Love your candor in the stashing! I’ve a pretty hefty one myself and own a number of the ones you’ve shown - especially Randall Spangler ! Truth be told I’ve ordered most of his after your videos! 💟👌💟💟
That thumbnail cracks me up. You know you got a big stash when you can build a house out of it. 😂 Thanks for linking the large portfolio. I have started putting my smaller ones in portfolios and I'm getting rid of the boxes and other packing. It takes up way too much room in my house. Katie, about how many diamond paintings would one of these portfolios hold?
Hi Katie thanks for sharing. I love stash videos! This was amazing! And I love the house 😊. I did get it wrong... I thought you would have more Spanglers than Manzanos but when you take all the princess panels into account that does make total sense. I think we should re-term stash to collection because thar is what we are basically, collectors 😉. I have 136 in my collection with 7 on the way. This may be a sad statement since I have only been DPing for a year but I do love my collection. Enjoy 😉.
I have 15 DAC kits in my stash at the moment, and 3 DAC wips on top of that. It would absolutely be more, but storage restrictions keep me completing a few kits before I have room to buy any more.
I just started painting in Jan of this year and I have quickly purchased 30 kits! Mostly DAC (19), but there are definitely a few regrets. lol. I've completed 12 and I'm currently working on my 13th - NOLA by Mandie Manzano! My first two paintings were Mandie's as well, Saint Brees and Lady Creole. I've put myself on a "no buy" until I get more completed (unless my two out of stock faves come back) because having so many undone has started to give me anxiety! I completely understand the reasoning behind a stash like yours, and of course respect people's choices with their hobby, but I'd personally like to get back to a place where I have more completed than stashed. Maybe no more than 5 or 6 at a time undone.
I just finished my first dimond painting last night. The last drill went in at 11:57. It is Vincent Van Gothe's Starry Night. I've already ordered my next one.
Hi Katie! Thank you so much for this video. I got my first diamond kit for Christmas and now I’m obsessed! 😍 Thanks to you I just ordered two diamond kits from DAC. 😂 Couldn’t resist the black Hogwarts crest and Queen of Wands. I 100% agree with their approach to intellectual property and licensing, this actually was something that made me place an order. I live in Poland, so I’ll wait a bit for the package, but I am sure it’ll be worth it. I love your channel, learned a lot here, thank you so much!
That was AMAZING! 🤗 I love a stash video! Shame that enough people have made negative comments for you to need a disclaimer 😔 There will never be a day when someone doesn't have something we wish we had - that's life buttercups! I can't exactly call my 2 boxed pieces and 2 WIPs a 'stash', but I really enjoy seeing what other people have 🥰 Thanks for taking the time to go through your beautiful collection for us to drool over! 🤤😋👍🏽
Im very much into the Fantasy, and also love dragons too. I only have a couple of dragon paintings. I just started diamond painting back in 2020 and fell in with doing them.
I'm just now on my second ever diamond painting. I was shopping for more recently and I almost bought Butterfly dragon! I had some tough choices to make. There are truly so many beautiful pieces out there! I'm enjoying watching your stash video. Update: Ok, now I've watched the entire video and I could see me with a stash in a couple years or sooner!! My third dp arrived yesterday. I got it kitted up, ready to go after this one I'm currently working on. First one was a round drill gifted to me by a friend that I just kind of would look at and then finally began and completed in under a week! This one is a 40x30 square drill piece so I could experience both drill shapes. And I'm on to bigger pieces!
Katie, I was just wondering how you store your large stash. I have over 100 DAC kits alone and I have them stacked Jenna style in the corner but then it’s impossible to get to any of the bottom ones. I first tried these plastic shelves but, one, they took up so much room and, two, there was no way they fit. Just don’t know what to do with them.
Hi! I know this is a very old comment and not sure if you figured something out but I purchased a binder of sorts that stores up to 30x40 sized DPs. I of course have larger than that size and they stick out a bit but nothing I can’t handle. This way I can flip through them and have a spot to place it back when I’m done for the day. The binder only fits about 60 so you may need 2 and possibly a box for the drills. Hope this helps 🙂
@@emilyerojas hi. I was referring to storing my DAC kits in the boxes that I haven’t done yet. I did get a new big metal shelving unit that holds a ton so guess I got it figured out. But thank you for replying to my comment. 😊
It's really interesting how tastes differ. In the past 18 months, I have built an enormous stash of 252 kits, all of them from Diamond Art Club. Even though I have a large number, I have only three of your DAC kits! The majority of my collection consists of landscapes and related, but I do have other subject matter as well. All of my DAC kits are on the large size. I don't know whether I'll live long enough to do many of them justice, but my intentions are good lol. It's been a joyous, though expensive time getting this collection together. To keep them all in best possible storage condition, I have not opened any of the kits upon receiving them. This , as you can understand, is not an easy thing to do, but I think it's the best approach.
Have you completed protégé from dimitra Milan & winter fox from Sylvia strijk? DAC kits with the most lovely foxes! Last one is in the last chance section at the moment. These two kits are my first buy from DAC.
I also have a super stash! However, mine is not as large as yours. I think that it's awesome that you made this video because it's a LOT of work to get them all out and then put them away again. I have about 175 or 180 and at least 150 of those are DAC. You speak true when you say their quality is better. They are more expensive, but well worth the extra paid for the lifetime oops-free guarantee and no questions asked drill replacement. Thanks for sharing, and I may do one of these videos myself
Love your stash,I have many same as you. I am getting close to 200 kits. 85% are DAC,the rest mostly other licensed companies, but I do have a few kits from before I learned about licensing. I am planning to do all of them, looking at it as a retirement investment 🙃
Love watching your stash videos! I have just a small stash, but I also have other crafting hobbies that take up my time like knitting/crochet, and sewing, so those things take up the bulk of my stash. Also just got a Cricut, so I need to give equal time to all the things. But diamond painting is so fun! I feel really slow though! Lol
Do you have a video on how you store all of your diamond painting items. Such as canvases, completed paintings, and accessories. I’m after some inspiration,ty
Loved seeing your stash. I have to say I love Margaret Morales work. My stash is pretty small, just 4 DPs, but I am really preparing myself for Black Friday.
Hi Katie! First of all, LOVE 💕 the stash! Especially when you got to the DAC kits, I was really excited 😊. Anyways, to add to your DAC Fairy 🧚 collection, there’s another kit in DAC. It’s called, “My Garden Needs Tending.” She’s the fairy that make the flowers grow. See, I have two little girls that used to watch the Tinkerbell series and I believe she’s one of them. That fairy kit is still on the DAC site. You should go check it out. Happy diamond painting!🥰
I have a pretty healthy stash!! almost 50 kits. I am currently working on "fire and Ice" as a gift to my therapist. I will be framing most of my kits to use in my Airbnb properties!!!
Your stash is amazing! I started April of 2020 to get through the stress of finding a rental then deciding to buy a house and everything that goes with that. I prefer landscape and animal DP's. I have watched your reviews of some that I would love to get but currently on a no buy until I complete my bigger canvas.
I just put a shelf in my basement to store my kits since my husband wanted the room back I was storing them in. I counted 198 uncompleted DAC. Didn't count the rest but it's good to see them all in one place so I can temper my purchasing. Lol. I also collect HAED cross stitch charts. Luckily those are all on my tablet. The artwork is so beautiful!
Absolutely love your nails!!!! I want to be done of work soon so that I can have my pretty nails back. I like when you do this Katie because it gives an insight into what other companies offer in genres and if any of us would be interested in something from this specific company. In the 7 months of starting to really get into diamond painting I have accumulated just over 100 and I have 4 more on the way 😅Awesome job as always. How many do you actually have you didn't say or you may have, but I was more focused on looking at the pretty pictures.
Hi Katie loved seeing your stash. I love Dakota Daetwiler and she does have another painting called spirits but unfortunately it’s sold out and I’m trying to be patient but I want it so bad 😂
I worked full time and took care of my husband who was an invalid so I did Diamond painted to relax. He passed November 2021 so I DP to pass time and heal
Sorry to hear about your husband, I am glad you have a hobby that is so helpful for your mental health. May time bring you more peace in his passing.
So sorry for your loss!
Sorry for your loss... enjoy your Hobby 🥰🙏🛶
I'm so sorry to hear that. ❤
So sorry for your loss. I am sort of using DPing in the same way except it’s me. I have triple organ failure and I’m on dialysis 3x a week. I have become severely depressed because of it Several of my doctors told me to pick one of hobbies backup. This is t one that stuck. I look forward to coming home and working on a Dplng. I’m slow but it is satisfy.
I wish I had found diamond painting at the beginning of the pandemic. I will never ever be able to afford the paintings you share,but your stash is amazing! I finally learned how to multi-place correctly by watching your old how-to videos. Your channel is my happy place.

Good for you Rose, I completely understand where you're coming from.

One thing I love about this hobby is that we have super different taste, but still have 5 in common. Thanks for sharing these with us. 💜
OMG!!! Katie got a DPing Fort!!! LMAO Love this picture!!! Had to show Hubby!!! Tell your lil cricket to move in there. LOL
hubby says I can't hang out with you anymore, lol. I just started diamond painting not that long ago so not that big of stash for that but over all craft stash is huge. I love crafts, I like trying all the crafts, that means collecting all the things, for all the crafts, and all the pretties, and look a new shiny.
The thumbnail post alone is hilarious! Just the cutest I’ve seen!
I live how many beautiful Art Kits you have i never saw.. so beautiful and extra ordinary 🥰😍
My stash is slowly inching toward 200. It will definitely take a lifetime for me to complete. I only accomplish 1 per month. I accept that I'm both a collector and a painter of diamond art. 🥴🤷🏽♀️🥰

Also, do you mind doing a video of how you log your completed DPs? I want to start one 😍
Yumei Art is another you’ve opened my eyes to! 👀

You have a few of my unicorns! But its so awesome to know you have them because you will of course take great care of them or find them great homes!
You definitely enabled me to buy another DxD kit!!!
I love the stash video Katie thank you for sharing your Diamond Painting Stash with us
I have just found diamond painting, in fact, I have not even started my first one, I will be doing that shortly, but I am so excited!
Loved seeing your fabulous stash. I found it so inspirational. Thanks for sharing Katie 💎💜🌟
What a fun video! Nicely curated collection.

I love this so much! Thanks for all the effort! It wasn’t wasted on me! I thoroughly enjoyed it!
I have 61 in my stash and 5 WIPS 😬
Thanks so much for sharing, I started in April of 2020 also ❤ but of course you know my obsession is diamond painting and Adult Coloring omg you get sucked in so easily and I love them both.
I really enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing 😎
Wow ,what a stash,they are all beautiful 😍 ,I love DAC and have a few,will need to go and count them all now 😆.
Mandie Manzano is my FAVORITE! I’m drooling at your gorgeous stash!
Okay, first of all, the nails. Stunning, gorgeous, perfection, etc. Next, the effort. I commend you on your bravery for making this video, I know from experience that taking out your whole stash is A LOT of work. Your content never ceases to impress! ♥️
Dakota haves spirit on DAC as well not just what lies beneath. And it’s beautiful
I went to a diamond painting party with my sisters at a local cafe and I’m hooked! Working on my second one now.
How fun! I received my first diamond painting in October of 2020, but I started it a month ago. I currently have 6 in my stash so far. Waiting for a bunch to come in the mail currently!
You do great work - and your craft is your craft. No one criticizes a wood-worker for having extra wood.
Cool stash. My stash is a lot of dragons. Ravynne Phelan is one of my favorites. Took me a while to get I Am but when it restocked it was mine.
Love the stash video! I like to see what painting others are drawn to. It's neat to see the similarities and differences in taste! I haven't even been painting for a year and I'm close to 100 paintings! I also crochet and have a pretty good stay of yarn but I usually always buy specific for certain projects.

Thank you for the information. I am a beginner Diamond painter. I discovered Diamond painting by accident. I am glad of my happy mistake.
Wow wow that is an amazing stash. It's so cool that I have a few of the same kits and also I got one that was my unicorn because of you unboxed it. So thank you. I have less the 20 kits in my stash. Great video bye
Katie this was so much fun! Lots of shops I have never heard of can’t wait to check them out. Thanks again!
That was so much fun - awesome stash🤩
I have 15 kits in my 'stash' - hopefully it'll be 17 this coming Monday 😊
My favorite artists are Yuumei Art and Christopher Lovell - am hoping to snag Plague Dr today (fingers crossed 🤞).
Thank you for the the wonderful video 💐
I got Plague Dr, such an awesome artwork, I hope you snagged it, too :D

I love your video. Thank you for sharing HAPPY NEW YEAR
Your stash is beautiful, and reminds me to get some that I was on the fence about. Thank you
Amazing collection!!!!

What a fantastic collection. I really want to order the Gamer Girl canvas 😍
That was AMAZING! 🤗 I love a stash video! Shame that enough people have made negative comments for you to need a disclaimer 😔 There will never be a day when someone doesn't have something we wish we had - that's life buttercups! I can't exactly call my 2 boxed pieces and 2 WIPs a 'stash', but I really enjoy seeing what other people have 🥰 Thanks for taking the time to go through your beautiful collection for us to drool over! 🤤😋👍🏽
Im very much into the Fantasy, and also love dragons too. I only have a couple of dragon paintings. I just started diamond painting back in 2020 and fell in with doing them.
You have an awesome collection!! Love it!! You have one from Craftibly that I am hoping makes a return to their shop Light In The Storm.
I have a huge stash myself, and I am not an affiliate of anyone 🤣 I loved going through your stash with you.
I'm just now on my second ever diamond painting. I was shopping for more recently and I almost bought Butterfly dragon! I had some tough choices to make. There are truly so many beautiful pieces out there! I'm enjoying watching your stash video. Update: Ok, now I've watched the entire video and I could see me with a stash in a couple years or sooner!! My third dp arrived yesterday. I got it kitted up, ready to go after this one I'm currently working on. First one was a round drill gifted to me by a friend that I just kind of would look at and then finally began and completed in under a week! This one is a 40x30 square drill piece so I could experience both drill shapes. And I'm on to bigger pieces!
Katie, I was just wondering how you store your large stash. I have over 100 DAC kits alone and I have them stacked Jenna style in the corner but then it’s impossible to get to any of the bottom ones. I first tried these plastic shelves but, one, they took up so much room and, two, there was no way they fit. Just don’t know what to do with them.
Hi! I know this is a very old comment and not sure if you figured something out but I purchased a binder of sorts that stores up to 30x40 sized DPs. I of course have larger than that size and they stick out a bit but nothing I can’t handle. This way I can flip through them and have a spot to place it back when I’m done for the day. The binder only fits about 60 so you may need 2 and possibly a box for the drills. Hope this helps 🙂
@@emilyerojas hi. I was referring to storing my DAC kits in the boxes that I haven’t done yet. I did get a new big metal shelving unit that holds a ton so guess I got it figured out. But thank you for replying to my comment. 😊
It's really interesting how tastes differ. In the past 18 months, I have built an enormous stash of 252 kits, all of them from Diamond Art Club. Even though I have a large number, I have only three of your DAC kits! The majority of my collection consists of landscapes and related, but I do have other subject matter as well. All of my DAC kits are on the large size. I don't know whether I'll live long enough to do many of them justice, but my intentions are good lol. It's been a joyous, though expensive time getting this collection together. To keep them all in best possible storage condition, I have not opened any of the kits upon receiving them. This , as you can understand, is not an easy thing to do, but I think it's the best approach.
They look lovely 🥰
Have you completed protégé from dimitra Milan & winter fox from Sylvia strijk? DAC kits with the most lovely foxes! Last one is in the last chance section at the moment. These two kits are my first buy from DAC.
Yes! Katie, our friend Jaclyn, and I did Protege together at the beginning of the year!
I love Randall Spangler!
I also have a super stash! However, mine is not as large as yours. I think that it's awesome that you made this video because it's a LOT of work to get them all out and then put them away again. I have about 175 or 180 and at least 150 of those are DAC. You speak true when you say their quality is better. They are more expensive, but well worth the extra paid for the lifetime oops-free guarantee and no questions asked drill replacement. Thanks for sharing, and I may do one of these videos myself
Love your stash,I have many same as you. I am getting close to 200 kits. 85% are DAC,the rest mostly other licensed companies, but I do have a few kits from before I learned about licensing. I am planning to do all of them, looking at it as a retirement investment 🙃
Love watching your stash videos! I have just a small stash, but I also have other crafting hobbies that take up my time like knitting/crochet, and sewing, so those things take up the bulk of my stash. Also just got a Cricut, so I need to give equal time to all the things. But diamond painting is so fun! I feel really slow though! Lol
Do you have a video on how you store all of your diamond painting items. Such as canvases, completed paintings, and accessories. I’m after some inspiration,ty
That is an amazing collection Katie. The very first video I ever watched of yours was your original stash video and I thought you had lots back then 😆
I love your collection!! Gorgeous pieces!! I'm hoping to one day find The Beauty.
Loved seeing your stash. I have to say I love Margaret Morales work. My stash is pretty small, just 4 DPs, but I am really preparing myself for Black Friday.
I have 8 Chuck Pinson’s in my stash. I love anything Chuck!
Thus is so impressive 🥰
I currently have 11 DAC paintings. Working on my first DAC painting and first time working with squares.
Oh I wish I had seen this earlier, you mentioned one going into your de stash that I have wanted so badly
Loved your collection I love Margaret's ❤️ Anna Ditmans too
Hi Katie! First of all, LOVE 💕 the stash! Especially when you got to the DAC kits, I was really excited 😊. Anyways, to add to your DAC Fairy 🧚 collection, there’s another kit in DAC. It’s called, “My Garden Needs Tending.” She’s the fairy that make the flowers grow. See, I have two little girls that used to watch the Tinkerbell series and I believe she’s one of them. That fairy kit is still on the DAC site. You should go check it out. Happy diamond painting!🥰
I have a pretty healthy stash!! almost 50 kits. I am currently working on "fire and Ice" as a gift to my therapist. I will be framing most of my kits to use in my Airbnb properties!!!
I've finished that one a while back, you're going to love it! It's awesome, it comes out really good😊
Your stash is amazing! I started April of 2020 to get through the stress of finding a rental then deciding to buy a house and everything that goes with that. I prefer landscape and animal DP's. I have watched your reviews of some that I would love to get but currently on a no buy until I complete my bigger canvas.
I just put a shelf in my basement to store my kits since my husband wanted the room back I was storing them in. I counted 198 uncompleted DAC. Didn't count the rest but it's good to see them all in one place so I can temper my purchasing. Lol. I also collect HAED cross stitch charts. Luckily those are all on my tablet. The artwork is so beautiful!
Absolutely love your nails!!!! I want to be done of work soon so that I can have my pretty nails back. I like when you do this Katie because it gives an insight into what other companies offer in genres and if any of us would be interested in something from this specific company. In the 7 months of starting to really get into diamond painting I have accumulated just over 100 and I have 4 more on the way 😅Awesome job as always. How many do you actually have you didn't say or you may have, but I was more focused on looking at the pretty pictures.
Very cool collection. Mine is much more eclectic than yours. But I can definitely see you love portraits. I tend to gravitate towards landscapes
Hi Katie loved seeing your stash. I love Dakota Daetwiler and she does have another painting called spirits but unfortunately it’s sold out and I’m trying to be patient but I want it so bad 😂
Girl I love Hannah Lynn...You let me know when you wanna destash that Ice Princess lol
