    I like companies that send their drills in baggies. I have very limited space (one room) and I use a small binder with baseball card sleeves for the project I'm working on and a larger one with all the DMC numbers for when I kit down. I label the bag with the company name and DMC and put in the big binder.

    What’s the biggest piece you’ve ever worked on and how long does it take you to complete one that’s more than the normal size? how often do you diamond paint since I know you have other hobbies, idk how you can balance all of the different projects 😅

    • @RachelRaeCraft
      @RachelRaeCraft  4 роки тому

      Hi Maria, I think the biggest piece I worked on was 42x120! The time really depends on how big and how many color changes there are. I've never really timed myself because I always forget to set a timer! xD I haven't been diamond painting regularly since I finished my Pocahontas piece. I'm sure the bug will bite again!

    Hello Rachel!! I have a question for you, I am trying to start my first diamond painting kit and is it better to start from the top left or right for a left handed??? Thankyou so much😘🥰😽💗💗

    • @RachelRaeCraft
      @RachelRaeCraft  4 роки тому +1

      I would imagine top right so that your hand doesn't stick in the glue as much, but some people prefer top left because your hand lays on the diamonds (I don't like the feeling personally)... experiment and find what is best for you :)

  • @donnaflores8356
    @donnaflores8356 4 роки тому

    I'm not a fan of the bags for a few reasons. First, this method is done by companies that do not have or cannot afford a bagging machine. To the best of my knowledge, the little ziplock bags are not capable of automation. The diamonds are are purchased in bulk and weighed and put into the bags by hand by a person. These days, with the current Covid situation, I prefer less touching of my goods. Second, because they are weighed by hand, I feel there is more room for error. In the first kit I purchased that was packaged this way , I was short on 12 colors and 2 others colors had the exact amount. Third, every time I get a kit where the diamonds smell bad, they seem to be packaged like this. Finally, there seems to be a greater likelihood of static when they are packaged like this, probably due to the excess handling. Yes, they can be convenient to kit up (but for the occasional static or smell issues), but that doesn't outweigh the other problems in my book.

    • @RachelRaeCraft
      @RachelRaeCraft  4 роки тому

      All good points, especially the static. But by the time the kit arrives, it will no longer have any living virus on it, so I wouldn't worry about that - though the margin of error could theoreticlly be higher, I'd say that the issue is more incorrect math / bad drill quality than the person bagging up the drills (or I'd hope, anyway).

      @donnaflores8356 4 роки тому
