    💎 Another impulse purchase! I got this mini kit from Diamond Art Club when I was buying another kit. I gotta say, there's lots of new stuff in here I wasn't expecting - new tray, new pen, lots of fairy dust drills (lots!). However, there were also some things that weren't great, including all the extra packaging/plastic. What do you think? Have you tried any of the other mini kits? How do they compare? 💎

    The separate packaging would be helpful if you were doing this kit with your children. Each would have what they need and not have to share the containers. That would also make having more than one label sheet helpful. Thank you for showing this kit. It is cute!

    I like the new mini sets and tool kits. I do agree with that each one being separated seems like a waste. However, I did see in the vip group last week that they wanted people's opinions on if they wanted all of the drills together or not so they may change the packaging based on the input in there.

    I just got the make up one and feel the same way about the individual drill packs. Seems very unnecessary and made kitting up the entire set a pain with way too much trash. The Make Up kit only had fairy dust drills and 3 were vertical and 3 were horizontal. If you wanted to frame them on the wall afterwards having the different orientations would be a little annoying.

    I'm not a fan of tool kits period. I don't use the baggies, or putty, only use my trays and pens. I wish there was a way to tell all the companies please don't send me anything other than the canvas, drills and stickers. I really hate the waste. That said, the price is nice on this as well as really cute canvases.

    Hi Daphne thanks for sharing. I got a new kit in a DP, so it had the bigger tray - it’s smooth plastic and the lid and stopper work well.

Some of the images do use different colors. So, it was easier for me just to have them all ready. I am hoping they come out with a "Halloween" kits. Fingers crossed.
