THAT'S A PERFECT IDEA! I'll try to track one down here in Tunisia or order one. I actually am uploading a video today and I briefly talk about not knowing how I'll transport my works in progress - its been on my mind. I'm going to take your advice. Thank you!
Thanks for finding it and being here! I'm really looking forward to starting the Princess Ensemble too. I'm going to wrap up my current project then drive into that one. Its a HUGE Diamond Painting. Be on the look out for lots of Drill With Me videos!
You all probably dont care but does anybody know of a way to get back into an Instagram account?? I stupidly forgot my account password. I love any help you can give me!
@Ulises Mohammad Thanks so much for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm in the hacking process atm. Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
I got my first Elizabeth Ward storage system from my sister for Christmas. I have wanted one for ages mine is the mixed size . She also got me a painting I wanted it is my biggest one 70x120 . . I was so excited when I opened them. Hurray for big sisters I say lol!😘😊🤗
We're gift twins! Same holder and similar sized projects to work on. When are you going to start the 70x120? I hope to start my 70x100 in about a week.
@@ForeignServiceCrafter I wish I could start but because it is for me it doesn't take priority. I think I have 7 paintings to do before it. I will be watching your progress on yours though jealously lol! Love light pads they make it so easy and enjoyable to dp I wouldn't be without mine it's a must have. I keep playing with the storage containers. I have a list somewhere that says how many bags each size container holds,if you want I will send you the info unless you know already. I was shocked that people say mainly they use the tiny or small pots the most.😘😊🤗
Wow that Disney picture is cool! You'll be glad it's so big (probably 😄) when you're finished- the detail will be so much better. Nice video. New subscriber :)
Just found your video. So happy you are joining our diamond painting family. It’s so addicting. Feel free to ask any questions and yes those were the dmc code on your Disney drills.
Awesome. Good to know. Do the majority of large Diamond Paintings use DMCs? I might just print out a sheet of DMC numbers and learn so I stop asking about DMCs in my videos LOL
Foreign Service Crafter Most diamond paintings do come with the DMC number which is the color of your drill. There is over 500 colors so if you do a lot of diamond paintings you start learning what each color dmc code it is like example black is 310. If you search dmc colors you will find a chart of all the colors. When I am done with a diamond painting and any left over drills which you usually have I put them in little baggies that come with each kit and save them and label the dmc just in case you come up short on a painting you are doing. I have had it happen only twice but had the extra in the ones I had saved. I have done over 20 diamond paintings.
@@yvonneenglish1024 I'm going to search for a nice full color DMC chart, print it out, and laminate it. It should help me quickly learn the numbers. - - I did the same with my left over drills too! I took the drills from my first kit and put them in baggies. When my large organizer arrives I'm looking forward to filling it up :)
OH wow you got so many great gifts to help you out ..your a PRO now girl and I am soo Jealous of your bead organizer I want them so badly but they are very pricey in Canada and I would want 4 of them so I will have to wait till I make a trip to the US. Look at you going from a simple round painting to an OMG Disney WOW painting .. I cant wait to watch you working on this one... it is what we call in the DP lingo as "Confetti Nightmare" and you are a brave woman to attempt this because I would never and yes those are the DMC numbers on the bag...Meredith Please work on this one first so we can see you go crazy HAHA..HAPPY NEW YEAR to you and your family get home safe and remember CONFETTI NIGHTMARE
I'm far from a PRO but thank you for the compliment. You're the PRO! - - I'm probably going to do the Princess project really soon. I haven't heard of confetti nightmare and I can see why it would be called that. There's no large chunks of the colors, they're all spread out. When I looked at the project I didn't see a lot of black yet the inventory sheet says there's over 20,000 black drills. I'll be doing that after I complete one of the surprise Diamond Paintings my husband got me. He ordered 3 customs of our dog. They are adorable and I can't wait to start one. They're smaller - 40x25 so they shouldn't take too long and I should be starting it today or tomorrow.
I have the same clip in magnifying glass with built in light and i love it and i also have the same light up pad angled stand. You will love your light pad to. This will really help you out and good luck. I love your paintings as well they are gorgeous. Sincerely Angie Schulte of Hector Minnesota.
I'm looking forward to trying them out! We're back home in Tunisia now. I didn't have room in my luggage so I had to ship them to use and will have to wait 2 weeks for them to arrive. I''m excited to try them out!
I love my light board and my storage is similar to yours but have tictac boxes in. I suffer badly also with the neck pain as iv have HEDS. Does having a magnifier on your light help with the pain. I found a tip to smoothing them out. If you pull the cover back half way and then put it back on it should be alot flatter. New sub I love your videos.
Thanks for being a subscriber Breanne! The magnifier does help because I bend over less - I still get some back pain while painting. Its nice to have and I lean over a bit less than I did without it. :) Thanks for watching my videos :)
@@ForeignServiceCrafter I have HEDS and struggling with all my joints but my shoulder and back mainly doing this. I find it hard to stop when started though 🤣
Yes! I tried putting the symbols on my drill boxes and its helped so much. Having that second thing to look at. I'll do a sheet as well. Thanks for the tip!
The Disney won an Amazon is now $42 I know that's still a good price and everything and my granddaughters would probably love that too but not sure if I need to buy another Diamond painting
I know the feeling.I have 4 different ones right now. I want need but should wait. You can add the Princess painting to your Amazon cart and wait for the price to drop a bit. I've seen it as low as $33.
The glue-- one word of caution- I sealed a few with that and if you put it on to heavy, it will cake up and completely dual your painting. Also I've noticed it looks like a "Skin" on the painting now that it has been a few months since I used it. So please try it the first few times on a painting you don't LOVE!
Whoa.. I didnt know that. Goodness. Thanks for the heads up. I definitely dont want to experience that. Have you tried another brand or have something you'd suggest?
Foreign Service Crafter honestly they all take away from the shine- so I just keep them raw- I have many on my walls and the diamonds stay put just fine.
I need help my white love birds diamond kit on some letters are missing anyone know all the numbers and letters on the white birds in love it will help me please
Thank you for letting me know! I'm trying to make sure my videos are easy to watch and having this information is helpful. I'll work on speaking louder. :)
