Watching this while I work on Cosmic Trip to prep for tomorrow’s language arts test. I’m loving the canvas so far! It’s such a nice mix between confetti and color blocking. Also, your fox woman is coming out absolutely gorgeous - and kind of making me want it, haha. If at all possible, keep the WIP and Waffle at the same days they’re uploaded now. It balances out the week fairly evenly, especially with these longer ones, often allowing quite a few of us for multiple viewings spread throughout the week. And your weekly updates throughout the week is so much fun! Also also, I love hearing Luna. It’s like hearing my best friend’s dog on the phone; his barks just warm your heart. It’s making me miss my dog and fingers crosssed we evenly get another… I’ve never not had a dog and a cat at the same time before, but after our last unfortunately passed of old age years ago, Mom was too heartbroken and we just haven’t gotten another dog yet.
I'm happy to say our furbaby Geordi has settled in lovely, it's just like he has always been here 😅 I had my legs waxed once and once was quite enough.. ouch! In the 90s I got an Epilator hair remover, I did my legs and underarms for about six months and haven'thad to use anything since.. It hurt a bit the first time but after that it was fine. I hope you won't move the Sunday Wip n Waffle as I look forward to relaxing with you on a Sunday 😘🫂💚
Well it has felt good to be back diamond painting. I kitted up a 30 x 30cm on Saturday 4th and completed it today Sunday 5th. I am now kitting up a 40 x 40 for June waffle. I'm still crocheting or knitting in between but I seem to have a lot of time to kill while waiting for this house to sell. As to your question about the better days for releasing videos surely we can watch them whenever we have time so the decision should be yours.
Hello everybody. I love hearing Luna in the background but then I love dogs. I have a Rottweiler but she does not bark much. She is our pride and joy. Thanks for keeping me company while I work on my mystery kit by Anne Stokes from diamond art club. It is coming along nicely. I enjoy the longer wip and waffles because it gives me more time to diamond paint, lol
Hello! Another wonderful Waffle! Regarding the waffle schedule, I like Sunday/Thursday but as I'm on disability and don't work, I can watch them anytime. So whatever works best for you is best for me! About barking dogs, I got lucky. Neither of mine are barkers. Unless my 13 year old one really wants something. Then he will bark at us to try to get this way! I just finished the Paiting I was doing for my sister-in-laws birthday. It turned out beautifully. Now to turn back to my diamond art club Paiting that I started in December but had to stop due to the migraines. My dogs vet appointments went well. My 13 year old dogs eye spot turned out to be an iris cyst, which is nothing to be worried about. My 7 year old dog got a med for allergies and we added another med for anxiety. So both appointments were good news! Thank you for the explanation on the putty! It's very helpful!.Thank you again for another great Waffle! I hope you and all the Zesties have a wonderful week!
Hitting pause! 😳 I just spit the sip the of water from my mouth when Rebecca said ‘don’t get me started about the state that starts with an M and has a lot of SSS after it!’ 😂 I can’t stop laughing!!! Rebecca, have you seen the movie Steel Magnolias? Here’s a quote for you, “you know, I love you more than my luggage” 😂
A Luna comment lol I remember when you got her. Will and the kids were supposed to only go look at her, but that didn't happen😂 I could tell at first you were shocked but soon frll in love with her. There were a lot of us who got dogs at the same time. I brought Emmie home right before you got Luna, and she too is a barker. She is mostly dachshund and some Pomeranian.
Hello Rebecca, this is Lisa from across the pond in the US! I ordered a package from you last week and I received it today 05/28/24. Royal post is working fabulous. I love the diamond trays so much that I ordered more today. As far as when and how often you should do your whip and chat I think that should be up to you when your time schedule allows. Because you’re doing so much as it is that we should accommodate you not accommodating us which I appreciate you wanting to do. Have fun diamond painting. I’ll see you on the next sip and chat.
Speaking of DIY projects popping up. Last week hubby and I returned from an errand and discovered upon returning home that my key wouldn’t unlock the door. His key wouldn’t open it either. So a honey-do got added to hubby’s list. Traded door handles with another door that we rarely use. Home ownership means there are honey-dos on the list.
When you uncovered the whole strip just to get the bitty parts my immediate thought was "it's lucky she keeps it to one strip and not the whole canvas"😂 because if you wanted to catch all the repeating color there you would surely miss some😂 With my crayon being older and already used, it has a bit of a slant to the tip and so also a bigger surface to pick up drills. I haven't tried it with new and pointy crayons but maybe that's whats making it a bit more difficult? But of course it can also be the AB coating or maybe there's more dust on the drills.
Saturday might be a barren wasteland; however, I love the current schedule. I just need to come up with other videos on other topics to watch. I am VERY happy you are enjoying your weekends off to spend time doing what you want to do…even if it is DIY projects. ❤️ 🔧🪚
Hi Rebecca and all Zesties. Regarding facial waxing. I get VERY bushy eyebrows and cannot pluck enough! I try to make it in to have a pedicure at least once per month. I have worn boots for work for 40 years and my feet get super dry from them. Having a pedicure done once a month helps keep my feet from not being so dry (plus it is the only colored polish that I can have with my job). After the pedicure, I usually have my eyebrows waxed as well. The first time I had my upper lip waxed was very surprising! Now, it is not near as bad as it was in the beginning and I even get my chin waxed as well. It does get easier just as it got easier to have my eyebrows done. I have also had my eyebrows and uppper lip threaded. Love the results of doing the threading. Eyebrows was not too bad but the upper lip was as if I had it waxed the first time. I had tears running down my cheeks!
Hi Rebecca hope you all well, loving how Fox Mamma turning out. Been looking on Oraloa website they have some beautiful paintings! It next new company on my list to try out 😊 I have a miniature jack russell but he thinks he is a big dog 😅 He barks at anyone walking by our front garden and anyone that comes in especially the postie he goes mad! 😅 For such a small dog he has a very loud bark!!
Hi Rebecca. Hope you have had a good week also. Sundays and Thursdays are good days for wiping and chatter. I have finished my Dreamer Designs Mutiny on Friday. Which I have posted to the facebook group (I think). I have kitted up White Christmas and Rain Dancer Denise by Helkoryo (Diamond Art Studio). It’s another high count painting with 178 colours.
Hi Rebecca! I just wanted to elaborate on my comment from last week about your wip and waffle schedule. My only thought about changing it was for you. So you could have your weekends free, easier. We can watch them any time. To be honest I'm loving your new schedule because we have been getting very long wip n waffles since the change 😂 And one more tbh comment, I have been commenting more, so there is more to read 😈 Devious I know 😂😂😂
Hi Rebecca, is it possible to see Luna in a video one day? You talk about her and we hear her but we never see her. As long as your wip and waffles are at least twice a week, I'm happy. If you could zoom in even further than you already do, as seeing the symbols as you place the diamonds down, I love to see. I have 2 oraloa diamond paintings and have kitted one up, can't wait to start it.
Rebecca, pls if at all possible, don't change ur Wip'n'Waffles from Thurs & Sun. If I'm having a mare of a week, those 2 videos are like a beacon of shining light for me cos I know I have something good to look forward to ♥️😘🫂💕
Hi Rebecca, a little off topic - I’m looking forward to the June Waffle and already have planned to finish up budget WIPs. AND, I will have a new start and finish for another event, DP for Pets. Do you ever participate in other events? I only do 3 a year - June Waffle, December Advent, and DP for Pets. That’s my limit. Don’t want diamond painting to become a chore.
Finishing off this video now. I passed my reading test! I got a 178 out of 200, which is equivalent to 96%. I am so incredibly proud of that score (especially after mentally hyping up how hard the essay would be). Now it’s time for me to grind out science and math over the next few months. I can’t believe I am saying this, but I can see me actually passing my GED by 2025; maybe I’ll start doing online driver’s education soon, so I can start practice driving soon. As for wanting what we don’t have, I believe it’s a “fomo” mindset. I’d love straight hair, but I was given wavy hair.
Hi Rebecca I prefer to uncover 1 cover paper section at a time and complete that section before I move onto the next. If I try uncover more I tend to miss more symbols xx
Aww I love watching you place diamonds and spot the ones you miss.. as I do all the time ..but it's out of focus if I zoom in sadly so can't make out some symbols ..still love ya vids though obvs ❤🎉
Hi Rebecca, I would like to know if you have all your Fanselles Friday show all together so I can watch them at one time. Right now I'm watching one at time and it take me so long to find the next one. I can not do DP with out listening to you. I like Fanselle Friday show because I like to see the new stuff you get. I also like your other channel too. I was so looking forward to your June Waffle but I am go in the hospital to get a hip replacement on June third and don't know how I'm going to feel and if I will be able to sit with out hurting. I'm hoping that I will be able to catch up before the end of June. I so like your waffling. Your voices is so nice to listen to. Hope all is well with you and your family. I like listening to Luna too. Thank you for all you do for us. This is Robin Townsend from the USA. PA.
Hello, Rebecca! You read a comment during this Wip 'n Waffle, but I'm not sure from which video the comment came. So, for the southern Oklahoma young lady who is a teacher's assistant for special needs students, first of all, thank you so much for your service, and second of all, you mentioned that you are collecting supplies for the DP club you will start for next school year. I have several trays and other DP accessories that I would love to pass on for your club use. What would be the best way to get them to you? Maybe there are others who are interested in passing along supplies to minimize your coming out of pocket for materials.
I do know of Wheatabix, and I believe it’s in American grocery store, but it’s something I’ve never tried. No one in my house would enjoy them and personally it’s a texture that seems similar to oatmeal, which is something I dislike purely because of the texture of eating it, no matter the consistency.
Sorry…tried to refrain from adding another comment. What brand of crayon is everyone using to dot with ABs? We normally use Crayola brand here in the U.S. Could it be the brand making a difference? NEVER MIND! Just saw the tip & trick!
Hello Rebecca , I finally purchased my first mystery box from DAC . I received zoom zoom and pumpkin dragon. And now have three everlasting tips . Cannot wait to try them . Still trying to get a message to coodeals . Never recieved my paintings or a refund .
Pressing pause sorry for the ramble: Its,maybe a good idea is to write down all the ideas you have on your head and when you have achieved it or got it sorted tick it off :). A few years ago I wanted to launch a display and resource making business for schools to help teachers and assistants with work life balance and so they have more time for teaching, laminating and resource making does take some time to complete, taking away valuable teaching time. However when I told family ect they discourage me as they said it’s already something that is done by teachers/assistants.
Watching this while I work on Cosmic Trip to prep for tomorrow’s language arts test. I’m loving the canvas so far! It’s such a nice mix between confetti and color blocking. Also, your fox woman is coming out absolutely gorgeous - and kind of making me want it, haha.
If at all possible, keep the WIP and Waffle at the same days they’re uploaded now. It balances out the week fairly evenly, especially with these longer ones, often allowing quite a few of us for multiple viewings spread throughout the week. And your weekly updates throughout the week is so much fun!
Also also, I love hearing Luna. It’s like hearing my best friend’s dog on the phone; his barks just warm your heart. It’s making me miss my dog and fingers crosssed we evenly get another… I’ve never not had a dog and a cat at the same time before, but after our last unfortunately passed of old age years ago, Mom was too heartbroken and we just haven’t gotten another dog yet.
I'm happy to say our furbaby Geordi has settled in lovely, it's just like he has always been here 😅
I had my legs waxed once and once was quite enough.. ouch! In the 90s I got an Epilator hair remover, I did my legs and underarms for about six months and haven'thad to use anything since.. It hurt a bit the first time but after that it was fine.
I hope you won't move the Sunday Wip n Waffle as I look forward to relaxing with you on a Sunday 😘🫂💚
Omg an Epilator, that is a blast from the past! 😂
Well it has felt good to be back diamond painting. I kitted up a 30 x 30cm on Saturday 4th and completed it today Sunday 5th. I am now kitting up a 40 x 40 for June waffle.

Speaking of things in pockets, my grandfather always had sweets in his pocket even as we grew older he would still have the sweets for us ☺️

I've had my June waffle kit picked out for weeks. I'm doing Rainbow Roses from DAC, and I'm also using it for a Pride diamond painting event.

Hey I usually use two fingers and move them so the screen zooms in if it’s not zoomed in enough already to see the symbols ❤:) x

Ideally if you could keep the Thursday wip and waffle and change Sunday to Saturday that puts a zesty wip and waffle at the start and end of my week
Even I missed a couple of symbols, my friend. 😂😂
Hi Rebecca I prefer to uncover 1 cover paper section at a time and complete that section before I move onto the next. If I try uncover more I tend to miss more symbols xx
the loo roll at school was called isel and you can still buy it
Clothes maven is how we sometimes say it in NYC.

Aww I love watching you place diamonds and spot the ones you miss.. as I do all the time ..but it's out of focus if I zoom in sadly so can't make out some symbols ..still love ya vids though obvs ❤🎉
