Hi dear Katie - loved this video. So fun to actual see the delight and joy on your face as you speak about these kits. Would love to see a video with the finished rainy day kits as well. Highly recommend face-to-face videos every now and then. It just gives a totally different vibe and I think your audience will appreciate it. Hugs
Katie, thank you for showing us your heart and your favorite kits. I do have favorite kits. I might save a bit before working them because they are favorites. I enjoy all your videos, and it's even better to see your lovely face. I want you to be comfortable. Building self-esteem is important, and there is absolutely no reason not to show yourself on screen. It's not easy, but all part of growing. I enjoy your stories and family, and you've been a big help for me learning tricks and the diamond painting process, especially washi tape. Stay strong. 💜💎🎨👩🦳
Katie, I really enjoyed your video, and your taste in artwork is fabulous. You have so many beautiful rainy day kits. I wish I had all of them!!! I would love to see your completed paintings from your rainy day stash. I also enjoyed seeing you face to face. Great video.
I have 1 rainy day kit, not a whole stash. It is Red Moon by Roy Trinh. It just brings me back to my childhood when I look at it, so I am saving it for when I am feeling particularly nostalgic.
I adore my rainy day kits they strike an emotion an connection to certain pieces even though I love all my pictures so I relate so much…..I love the face to face but you do it when you are comfortable your voice alone is also good enough it’s so soothing don’t ever force yourself, you are a wonderful person Katie an I enjoy watching all of your videos ❤
Hi Katie!! Loved seeing all of your kits that have meaning to you as well as seeing your beautiful face! Helps us make a connection with you. I hope this video and comments give you the encouragement to do more like it. Have a great weekend!
We lost one of our older cats last year and he was a tabby. I did Tabby Night in his memory shortly after and I was surprised at how healing it was! Also, I gasped at the Star and the Dragon when you pulled it up! I love that one! ❤❤
I loved this video so much Katie. From seeing some of your favorite kits to seeing the joy on your face talking about them, it was just wonderful. I would love to see the completed rainy day kits as well!
Thank you for sharing your rainy day stash! It was lovely to see why a kit is a rainy day kit for you, and I can relate to wanting to savor the anticipation of working on something as well as working on it. My stash is too small for me to have rainy day kits so I love watching others and seeing what art they adore. ❤️ I’d love to see a rainy day completed video as well. I think I’ve seen some of the individual videos but having them all together and seeing you revisit them would be nice.
Hi Katie! So good to see you! You have an amazing rainy day stash! I am so interested in the "why" so thank you for sharing your connection to each video. I truly enjoyed it. Artemis is You! I said it when you first unboxed it. Yes, please, to the finished rainy day collection. ❤❤❤
Hi Katie, loved the video. You seem so relaxed and natural. You are so pretty and you have no reason to be embarrassed to sojourn face! I'm so glad you took the plunge!
Hi Katie! So nice to see you! I really like the way you did this one! I think this is a great way to do "stash" type videos, and I congratulate you on taking the plunge and letting us see your lovely face! I never thought of putting the letters of the company in the title on Gems Flow - great idea! ❤
Hi, Katie. I loved seeing your rainy day stash and the "face to face" format. I'd love to see your completed rainy day kits. I understand what you mean about waiting for the right time on some of your kits. I have quite a few kits that I got in memory of pets I've lost but haven't yet been able to bring myself to do them. ❤
Thank you so much sharing your rainy day stash with us. It was a lot of fun to see which kit that made it into your rainy day stash and why they made it. It also was nice to see the face that goes with the voice, that we all know and appreciate.
I really loved this video. It was awesome seeing all your rainy day kits. I feel like I know you more now. Have a wonderful day and weekend with your family ❣️
Hi Katie - I'm glad to see you stretching your comfort zone. It's nice to be able to put a face with the name sometimes. Your stash has some really gorgeous kits that I wish I could have in mine. Thank you for the more personal touch on this video. Kudos! Susan
I have a large stash, but a few that I definitely hold onto because they’re more for myself than anyone else. I call them my “happy” kits because they’re kits that when I look at the image help me to calm myself and pull out of whatever funk I’m in. I record TikTok’s and post on instagram, but I refuse to use my “happy” kits for pick-a-section videos so I can work on them at my own pace. There really is something special about completing rainy day kits. I completed Where the Fun Never Ends recently as a “happy” kit when I was feeling burned out. Even though I don’t really enjoy round drills, I had a blast with all the colors and it really helped me to recenter myself and just have a fun with the hobby again!
Loved this video. Seeing your face made it feel more personal! But, however is most comfortable for you works. All your videos are great. Your videos were the first I came across and helped me discover the world of small shop pens, trays and putty!!!
I totally get your emotions you have with your rainy day kits. I have a bunch of kits I’m emotionally attached to and can’t seem to do. Like you said, when they’re done, they’re done.
Thank you for sharing your rainyday stash and I loved to see your reaction on them as you showed them one by one - those were some amazing pieces. I do understand how nerve wrecking it must be to put yourself in front of the camera, but you really do it well and for this kind of video it really gives ot just that little extra ❤️
Nice to see you Katie! Glad you are going to be on camera more. Love your rainy day stash. So glad you shared it with us along with your explanations. This was fun.
Hi Katie These kits are gorgeous. I can see why these are in your rainy day collection. The Mandy monzell pieces are beautiful. Something sweet is probably my favorite of your stash. My favorite princess is Belle. I can’t wait to follow your progress on that one when you decide to work on it. I don’t have a rainy day stash at the moment but currently I have 6 kits in my stash and I have two WIPs. Once I complete one I can order another
Hi Katie, fun to see you in person and love getting to know about what you like. I watch you all of the time and I also live in Ca. Have a great day and take care.
I loved that this was more personal with you in view ☺️ I really really liked the 2 dragons, one white and one black or purple? They had their foreheads together….so nice! I would love to see another stash video! I really love this channel!!
Aaahh it was so nice to put a face to your lovely voice! You’re so pretty! Thank you for going out of your comfy zone to do this. I don’t think I could lol Thanks for sharing your rainy day stash! I have one of the ones you have and not sure when I’ll work on it lol
Katie! It was so nice to see your beautiful face! Seeing your reactions to each kit made it THAT much better. Thank you for sharing your rainy day stash with us and the thoughts and emotions behind why they mean so much to you 💕
I loved this video! I so enjoyed you sharing your rainy day stash. I do not have a stash. I try not to have more than 6 or 8 that are not completed at any time. It was fun to see your expressions for these paintings and why they are in your stash. I loved the landscape one you showed. I was very surprised that was in your stash. I have to say I am learning to appreciate licensed artwork and appreciate what they are bringing to the diamond world. I enjoy your content but really want you to present your channel the way you want. You, be comfortable. I will always follow! ❤❤. This was a nice surprise!
I'm team Show your Face! It's nice to put a face with your voice. I love your content 😊. I'm so sorry for your loss of Dolce. It's so hard to lose a furbaby, especially for the kiddos who don't really understand. ❤
I am absolutely SO envious of your Darth Daddy!! Mandie Manzano was also my 1st DAC and my 2nd ever DP. The snow queen. I discovered Darth Daddy and fell IN LOVE! My husband is a huge starwars fan and we have a little girl and little boy. It was just perfect! I could never find it until I discovered Jaded Gem Shop! I got the cross stitch conversion and had zero idea what that meant and what I was getting myself into 😂 but it is currently one of my WIPs! And I would love to see your finished rainy days!
I LOVED this video Katie! Please do more face-to-face. You are AWESOME! I don’t currently have a rainy day stash however this encourages me to create one.
I'm working on that Paint Gem set now! It is so fun- I have gotten through 5 of them in like a week because I've been limiting myself to 2 a day at the most. I've learned I love mystery kits and its really helping me adjust to doing squares. It was nice to see your rainy day stash! I definitely have kits I'd consider Rainy Day, many are fantasy- Knight Portal is in mine too.
I am so happy you decided to show us your rainy day stash and I love the way you chose to do it. Normally I listen to your videos while I diamond paint. But this had my whole attention. I would also love to see the kits from your rainy day stash that you have completed. That was fun!
Hi there Katie! It was so nice to see your sweet face! I enjoyed watching this video so much. I would like to see your completed rainy day stash and to see your face more would be an extra treat. I have Books n Nooks and MM Hades & Persephone as well. I don't really have a large enough stash yet (only 34) to have a rainy day stash but I think Hades & Persephone is going to have to be my first kit of the new year. I can't sit on that one!
This video was a lot of fun Katie! Yes I’d love to see your completed rainy day stash! I personally don’t have a rainy day stash I just kinda pull them all out and decide which I’m doing next! (I have about 25 canvases)
I used to have a rainy day stash but I’ve come to realize I won’t live forever so I want to be able to enjoy them. I do savor some and leave some for certain times of year. I now let myself enjoy them
I just purchased Have a Voice and Take an Army from Jaded Gem Shop and I am so excited. Thank you so much for the suggestion. I cannot wait to receive them. I want this whole collection!
I really like this format for a stash video. Don't get me wrong seeing the massive collection of boxes is fun but when it comes to actually showing off what kits you have? I like this. It shows all the stats and a clear view of the image. I'm sure it also makes it a lot easier to film. Also definitely want to see the finished rainy day paintings.
I loved this video!!! I have a few Rainy Day kits, but I call them my “Treasures”. I have Brave and Free, Cabin, and Literate Dragon there just tame a few. I want to work on them when life throws it’s curveballs, as it inevitably will. I also love some of the kits you showed that I wasn’t aware of and will be on the hunt for. Thank you!❤
Hi Katie….Love love love the video! It was great to see you. My favorite canvas in your rainy day stash is Books & Things from Munimade. The artwork calls to me!
I have a few “rainy day” kits. Ones where I want to be in a special mindset to do and savor the process. I really did not need to know that Mandie Manzano Beauty and the Beast kit existed though 😁 Gorgeous!
Great video, Katie. This was fun to watch. It made me go look through my Gems Flow and think about what kits really mean something to me. I too have one that I like so much that I just enjoy having it stash and knowing it’s there. Deedee by Hannah Lynn. It took me years to track down and reminds me so much of my daughter ❤
Nice to see you Katie! I don’t have a rainy day stash, I do them as I feel like and I display them all( not at the same time) but I’m always looking at my kits and love to see them when finished. I just wish I had more wall space 😅
This was so fun Katie! I would also love for you to go through the diamond paintings you've done that are your all time favorites! I went through my gems flow and marked my favs and next ups with 5 stars to better sort them after I saw your video. It was great to see your face again. You are beautiful! never forget that. After you mentioned Books and things on Munimade I was able to go there and order it! I've been looking for this one! thank-you. Happy Holidays.
Great video, Katie! I get a lot of enjoyment seeing people excited about something they're passionate about. Is that weird? 🤔 I don't have a diamond painting stash (I have 3 - Euryale, Virgo by J Wall, and Surreal Blues), but I crochet too and have what's best described as a half-sized bookcase filled with colour co-ordinated yarn, which I get a lot of pleasure from simply looking at, so I get it! 🤗🧶✨️
Hi Katie! I LOVE this video. I think I have a rainy day stash. There are definitely some I will look at and want to work on, but just can't get myself to at any given time. The thoughts of, 'not just yet' or 'it's not the right time' one of my top is also high in your list. It's Dawn. I found that one in a destash after seeing your finish and post review all those years ago, lol. And absolutely, yes on a video for completed rainy day finishes. Finishes are my favorite videos!
I love the video and really enjoyed the face to face format. 💖 I don't have stash of any sort. For the moment the maximum is one WIP and one to go after that. But maybe for that reason I love to see what is in other peoples stashes. 🤩 As for your completed rainy day painting I would like to see them in video. Sort of part II .
I really enjoyed this video Katie! I enjoyed seeing your face and the joy you had while discussing your rainy day kits! I do have one in particular that I consider my rainy day kit - Canal Home - it took me so long to find and now that I have it I am holding onto it.
Loved this video! I really liked hearing about your connection to the pieces and three of them are unicorns for me as I came to the craft after they were already discontinued. Love your videos and can’t wait to see you work on them over time! :)
Thank you for sharing this! Rapunzel by Mandie Manzano was my first DAC. I have completed three in this “series” and have one more left that I hope to get to soon in 2025. I hung them in my daughter’s room. She is in a bonus room space with a vaulted ceiling and sky lights. I have them hung between the skylights!
I really enjoyed your video. I am working on my first diamond painting. I come from a background of cross stitch and quilting. From those crafts I have learned that love for a design becomes meshed in the project through the process. Even if my taste changed and my craft grew, the love was still visible and felt by me. For some things that stayed too long in the stash, the love had leaked out by the time I got to them. I was sad that I didn't capture it at the time. A friend described it as being like drinking a cup of coffee left to grow cold.
Hi dear Katie - loved this video. So fun to actual see the delight and joy on your face as you speak about these kits. Would love to see a video with the finished rainy day kits as well. Highly recommend face-to-face videos every now and then. It just gives a totally different vibe and I think your audience will appreciate it. Hugs
Aww, thank you Lisette! I love your videos and how you're always connecting with your audience by sharing your face, too 🥰
There’s my beautiful friend!!! I LOVED this video! Thanks so much for sharing this with us! I loved it!💕💕
Katie, thank you for showing us your heart and your favorite kits.
I do have favorite kits. I might save a bit before working them because they are favorites.
I enjoy all your videos, and it's even better to see your lovely face. I want you to be comfortable. Building self-esteem is important, and there is absolutely no reason not to show yourself on screen. It's not easy, but all part of growing.

Love seeing the rainy day stash. You have some absolute gems in there!
Katie, your facial expressions were incredibly moving and conveyed emotions beautifully. It felt as though you were truly present with us. ❤
We love seeing your beautiful face! ❤ thank you for all you do for the diamond painting community.
Katie, I really enjoyed your video, and your taste in artwork is fabulous. You have so many beautiful rainy day kits. I wish I had all of them!!! I would love to see your completed paintings from your rainy day stash. I also enjoyed seeing you face to face. Great video.

I just finished Cat Comforts and it is just stunning and so pretty finished. Our furkids hold such space in our hearts 💜💙
Hi Katie!! Loved seeing all of your kits that have meaning to you as well as seeing your beautiful face! Helps us make a connection with you. I hope this video and comments give you the encouragement to do more like it. Have a great weekend!
Thank you for making yourself feel vulnerable (I understand the self conscious thing) and letting us see your beautiful face and smile!
Katie - loved you stepping out of your comfort zone and getting to see you! Loved the rainy day kits
We lost one of our older cats last year and he was a tabby. I did Tabby Night in his memory shortly after and I was surprised at how healing it was!
Also, I gasped at the Star and the Dragon when you pulled it up! I love that one!

LOOOOOOOOVED seeing the rainy day kits! Absolute perfection the way you did it via Gems Flow!
Love all of the dragon kits you have plus a bunch of others 😊 so nice to have a face with the videos. I hope you continue these.

WOOHOOO!!! Thanks so much for sharing!!! I was a little surprised to see Rose Library in this stash - it’s such a stunner when it’s done! 💜💜🥰🥰
Thank you for sharing your rainyday stash and I loved to see your reaction on them as you showed them one by one - those were some amazing pieces. I do understand how nerve wrecking it must be to put yourself in front of the camera, but you really do it well and for this kind of video it really gives ot just that little extra ❤️
I loved seeing what is in your rainy day stash and seeing your face! Great video. A nice change.
Nice to see you Katie! Glad you are going to be on camera more. Love your rainy day stash. So glad you shared it with us along with your explanations. This was fun.
Hi Katie
These kits are gorgeous. I can see why these are in your rainy day collection. The Mandy monzell pieces are beautiful. Something sweet is probably my favorite of your stash. My favorite princess is Belle. I can’t wait to follow your progress on that one when you decide to work on it.
I don’t have a rainy day stash at the moment but currently I have 6 kits in my stash and I have two WIPs. Once I complete one I can order another
Loved the whole vibe! ❤. Yep, your stash is so you!!! TFS 💎💙💎💙
Hi Katie, fun to see you in person and love getting to know about what you like. I watch you all of the time and I also live in Ca. Have a great day and take care.
The what and why of your rainy day stash was cool to see/learn about. Night Portal reminds me of a short story I read about a female warrior knight ❤.
I loved that this was more personal with you in view ☺️ I really really liked the 2 dragons, one white and one black or purple? They had their foreheads together….so nice! I would love to see another stash video! I really love this channel!!
Aaahh it was so nice to put a face to your lovely voice! You’re so pretty!
Thank you for going out of your comfy zone to do this. I don’t think I could lol

Thanks for the fun video! 😊 I think it would be great to see your completed rainy day kits and hear how you decided on starting them!
I am absolutely SO envious of your Darth Daddy!! Mandie Manzano was also my 1st DAC and my 2nd ever DP. The snow queen.
I discovered Darth Daddy and fell IN LOVE! My husband is a huge starwars fan and we have a little girl and little boy. It was just perfect! I could never find it until I discovered Jaded Gem Shop!

Hi! This has to be my favorite video so far from you! I love seeing you and your joy! So fun! I'd love to see more! Thanks for the inspiration!
This was so cool I loved it. I loved seeing your pretty face and I loved seeing your rainy day stash 😍🎉 thank you
I LOVED this video Katie! Please do more face-to-face. You are AWESOME! I don’t currently have a rainy day stash however this encourages me to create one.
I was just thinking I wanted another stash video, perfect timing!
Loved this video! I would love to see your completed rainy day stash. It’s also great to see your face!

Hello Katie we are new to Diamond Painting and appreciate the more personal approach. Hands only can be tiring. You have quite a stash. 😊
Well look at you being up there on camera! ❤❤❤
Hi there Katie! It was so nice to see your sweet face! I enjoyed watching this video so much. I would like to see your completed rainy day stash and to see your face more would be an extra treat.
I have Books n Nooks and MM Hades & Persephone as well. I don't really have a large enough stash yet (only 34) to have a rainy day stash but I think Hades & Persephone is going to have to be my first kit of the new year. I can't sit on that one!

This video was a lot of fun Katie! Yes I’d love to see your completed rainy day stash! I personally don’t have a rainy day stash I just kinda pull them all out and decide which I’m doing next! (I have about 25 canvases)
I absolutely loved this video. It was lovely to see you too. Thank you, Katie. Really enjoyable! 🫶
The picture is my son. He's taken over my UA-cam account.😂
I used to have a rainy day stash but I’ve come to realize I won’t live forever so I want to be able to enjoy them. I do savor some and leave some for certain times of year. I now let myself enjoy them

Also definitely want to see the finished rainy day paintings.
Thank you for the feedback! It's definitely a LOT less physical labor, haha. I might try something like this for a full stash video someday, too!
I loved this video!!! I have a few Rainy Day kits, but I call them my “Treasures”. I have Brave and Free, Cabin, and Literate Dragon there just tame a few.

Hi Katie! I LOVE this video. I think I have a rainy day stash. There are definitely some I will look at and want to work on, but just can't get myself to at any given time. The thoughts of, 'not just yet' or 'it's not the right time' one of my top is also high in your list. It's Dawn. I found that one in a destash after seeing your finish and post review all those years ago, lol. And absolutely, yes on a video for completed rainy day finishes. Finishes are my favorite videos!
I love the video and really enjoyed the face to face format. 💖
I don't have stash of any sort. For the moment the maximum is one WIP and one to go after that. But maybe for that reason I love to see what is in other peoples stashes. 🤩
As for your completed rainy day painting I would like to see them in video. Sort of part II .
This is what I had been waiting for!!! Yay!
I really enjoyed this video Katie! I enjoyed seeing your face and the joy you had while discussing your rainy day kits!
I do have one in particular that I consider my rainy day kit - Canal Home - it took me so long to find and now that I have it I am holding onto it.
Loved this video! I really liked hearing about your connection to the pieces and three of them are unicorns for me as I came to the craft after they were already discontinued. Love your videos and can’t wait to see you work on them over time! :)
Loved this video and yes to more of your beautiful smile 😁
Hi Katie! Thanks for sharing! Love all these!❤
Loved this video. So good to see your beautiful face ❤
I love to see your finished rainy day stash. I am also going to redo the labeling of gemsflow. Lol
I love seeing your lovely face!
Loved this video! I would watch any video you put out. It is great to watch while working or doing a dp or two.
Thank you for sharing your rain day stash..
Loved this video! Would absolutely love to see the completed ones!
I think this was great! Thanks for sharing! I think the Mandie Manzano’s were my favorite!
Love seeing your beautiful face.
Thank you for sharing this! Rapunzel by Mandie Manzano was my first DAC. I have completed three in this “series” and have one more left that I hope to get to soon in 2025. I hung them in my daughter’s room. She is in a bonus room space with a vaulted ceiling and sky lights. I have them hung between the skylights!
I really enjoyed your video. I am working on my first diamond painting. I come from a background of cross stitch and quilting. From those crafts I have learned that love for a design becomes meshed in the project through the process. Even if my taste changed and my craft grew, the love was still visible and felt by me. For some things that stayed too long in the stash, the love had leaked out by the time I got to them. I was sad that I didn't capture it at the time. A friend described it as being like drinking a cup of coffee left to grow cold.
This is a good perspective to keep in mind! Thank you for sharing!
I loved this one! Thanks for sharing 🩷
