I think they give you the stickers because some like to put the diamonds on little containers (like you can see on the video) and you can put the sticker on there :)
I have one of the paintgem kits and I used the stickers to label the bags of each colour! The spare blank ones I used for general label usage in my house 😅
@@ChloeRoseArtjust watching because I started one of these today, I got birds and butterflies, and yes let me confirm, I hate using the baggies. They’re so staticky, I have to put them in my little containers with dryer sheet to calm them down. I also have continually been putting my hand on it by accident lol. Granted I already have lots of storage for them because I already like diamond painting but yea that’s what they’re for.
@@jmsl_910 She was definitely joking. If you can’t hear the sarcasm in her voice and see her demeanor then you’re very unobservant or just super young or really old. She’s in her 30s, so she definitely knows who The Rolling Stones are and that “🤘”means rock on lol Come on dude.
As someone who does punch needling this hurt xD i wanted so bad to just help her but I can't because it's a videoooo 😭😭😭 Also edit, you are supposed to have the fluffy side is the side you display, not the stitch side "wrong side"
Okay this confirmed. I commented this also. I do not do this craft but I've seen it a few times and thought that it was the other side that is displayed.
I work for a diamond painting company and I'm absolutely obsessed! Lol 10/10 way to relax and has been so good for my mental health. Love that I can listen to YT videos or audiobooks while I work on them. So glad you enjoyed the PaintGem set!
@@ghoulchan7525 I hear ya! My particular company requires any artwork to be hand-edited even if they use AI as part of their process (no straight from the prompter images). We also clearly state which pieces were created with the help of AI, and only a very small percentage of the artists we license use it.
Oh by the way, you had the cassette tape upside down. That grey bit sticking out goes at the bottom. If you look, it says “mix” at the top when it’s the right way up. You made a mix tape 😊😊😊
So some dismond art kits are circles some are square. Each behave a little differently. Circles are more beginer friendly and they have alot of shone to them Squares can be harder but are great for more detailed work. I love doing both myself depending on the project. Also the stickers are for use if you put the drills in your own storage rather then working out of bags
❤ love it! Would definitely want to see part 2 of the diamond painting. I give you so much credit for finishing that yarn piece. I would have DEFINITELY given up on that! 😂
Chloe, as a fellow left handed person, have you ever considered doing things from right to left so things don't get on you left hand? Like the gems, starting from the right top corner
Diamond painting is really nice and chill. Me and my mom finished a piece that's taller than me. Maybe like a single size bed, and there were like 50+ colors of beads. Also shake the tray side ways to make them flip over easier, and keep your beads alphabetical and on a tray organizers.
For the diamond art I am so glad they put the gems in a ziploc. Many I have gotten come in cellophane then you have to put it in a ziploc bag, which is wasteful!
Don't worry about your background not being aesthetic or about getting frustrated with the crafts - I LOVE how relatable and down to earth you are 😃 Obviously you're an extremely talented artist, but I like that you get gems stuck to your arm, or spill paint on your desk etc and show us the real process in making your art. Great video as always!
I LOVE Paintgems. I have bought a bunch of their kits. My tip for finding the right bags is to put them in alphabetical order, then number order, then the symbols. I also bought A6 size trading card holders that have 8 slots on each page, 4 on each side (designed for K-Pop trading cards) and put the gem bags into the card slots. Then I work through the bags in order and look for that letter, number, or symbol on the painting. It has streamlined my process so much working on them.
Hullo Chloe, I rather think the stickers for the "bags" are for alternative storage cups. In your video you show someone taking the "jewels" out of plastic cups with lids! The provided stickers would go great on top of those caps or on the side of the cups! I do enjoy watching you work on projects and I really hope you can get back to painting one day? It does NOT need to fit all in one video, but it is up to you. I loved your Bob Ross painting and the VanGoth mural you painted as well and I hope you do another in your new place! See ya next video!
I've just started playing with diamond painting. I put wax paper on the sticky canvas when I want to keep lint off of it, or I want to rest my hand and don't want tot take off the stick. Baking Parchment will also work I believe.
14:17 I was in high school in the 80’s, so I love this paint gems you got. 12:54 This is an Apple computer, I had one. It was all together, screen and “tower”, except the keyboard. 12:55 Have no idea 🤷♀️ , maybe a rock band album cover? The Spider-Man hand is “I love” rock and roll, I think 😂. Can’t wait to order this ❤
Chloe going over the Retro themed Paint Gems "Miley Ciyus' mouth" 👀 - please look up the Rolling Stones logo from 1970 onward. 😉 Loved the Paint Gems, tho!
I was 100% absolutely joking on several of them. People on the internet love to correct you and think they know more than you, and I get more interaction on the video so it’s a win win 🤣
@@ChloeRoseArtoh thank goodness 😂 I am like a day behind watching, I think, and I just made this sane exact comment. But I am so happy to know that you really do know! Because I felt so old!
You know I honestly wanted to try the rug tufting until I seen this video, so thank you for saving me time and money. sincerely your fellow incompetent
Your She-Hulk experience made laugh (and commiserate) - I think we all have some craft or experience lurking out there that can unlock heretofore unguessed at amounts of rage. Also, I would LOVE a follow-up video on the Meta/Instagram AI thing! I hope you'll do one!
The diamond art picture you didn't know what it was, I think that's a skateboard with wings! The available kits were SO cute, I couldn't decide which I would have bought from that list that you showed, so I think you did well to choose at all :D The painting with yarn thing looked like an absolute nightmare so I solidly commend you for sticking with it and actually finishing, I would have given up for sure! (And I taught myself to crochet, so, I have patience but holy dooly!!) Amazing video, thank you so much for sharing this with us, and I would absolutely love to hear your POV on the Facebook AI situation 100% 💜🌈✨
I've been watching you for years and I've never seen you so angry 😂😂😂 I definitely appreciate the effort and stubbornness to finish the whole piece though. At the same time, doing even more frustrating things while already doing a stressful move isn't the greatest idea. I wish you guys an easier time moving even though I know it's not easy at all 🍀🍀🍀
Stick the wool on the table. And have the slack over your hand. I have just tried it for the first time. I also learnt that after 30 minutes of rage 😂 now im all in 😊 brought more kit's.
I got diamond painting christmas cards one year and I liked it a lot since they were small like the ones you got. I think the retro set is perfect for the diamond painting look
Oh my gosh, Merlin was so cute! I love your videos, Chloe. I'm a young artist just going into high school, and you inspire me so much. I can only hope to be as good as you one day
Congratulations on wifey status achievement,if that is your desired status and may you and your husband have decades of wedded bliss and delicious memories, adventures and happiness ahead ❤❤❤❤
I watched this while doing diamond painting, which I always call me dumb hobby but I love it. I have a 15 year old punch rug that I never finished so there's that. I've done several Paint Gems and they're super cute.
So close to the 1 mil mark!!! I love watching your videos I would enjoy a part 2 and the deep dive. Also I bought the necklace you designed with Ana Luisa and I’m in love with it! So fun to fiddle with and it brings me so much joy. ❤
Miley Cyrus’s mouth 😂😂😂 I think the Rolling Stones were first 🤭 But thanks for the laugh. And the look into punch needling, gonna skip that one myself, that would be too nervous and aggravating for me 😅
Loved your reaction to PaintGem - they were my gateway too. My first thought is "Why would I do this if I am an artist and can make my own?" and then I did it and the meditative nature of it and while you're doing exactly what they tell you to do, you feel like pseudo creative? I don't know, but it's legit.
This is the same thought I had with coloring books. Now I have over 50 books, and a mountain of coloring supplies... I am a digital artist, and tbh coloring books have made me rediscover my love for traditional media XD
It WAS the needle punch kit that sucked. Be honest lol. If a craft has that large of an error occurrence, there should at LEAST be a trouble shooting guide or god forbid, SOUND in their tutorial lol. The only way I could give them a pass is if there was a trouble shooting section and you missed it. It’s not that hard to do a FAQ etc on something this foreign to most ppl with a large margin of error.
The gem kits tell u to label the bags urself because some ppl use little gem containers and so they want you to be able to label them how u want whether you use a bag, or something else ❤
Hearing you call "devil horns" "spiderman hands" was surreal. Also I have a trip at the end of the month and can't spare for the funds for these but now I want them. Especially the diamond art one. They look so pretty!
I love Paint Gem! I have like 5 of their kits though I have only finished one whole set so far. I have a toddler and can't do them when he's up lol. I have the retro one too and now I really want to jump in and start on it ❤
I’m not good at punch needling either and get annoyed when the stitch doesn’t stay. I’ve only done a couple of small ones that I got from Michaels and Target. I have a couple of diamond art kits yet haven’t found time to try them out yet (story of my life, haha). Maybe I’ll get a small kit from Michael’s or elsewhere and start with that first, then move onto the larger ones (one is a unicorn and the other is Stitch!).
i do like the paintgem, boes i have done some myself but they are a bit pricy. i also wish you could get personalised paintgem diamond art. i get bigger non paintgem diamond art that is personalised for a lot less and they are always so good! it would be nice to be able to have a little set of your own pictures to do.
Yes Chloe please do a video on the AI thing, I'm kinda confused on how to go the best around it And do part 2 of this video, I love watching your videos of testing things! ❤
So... you noticed early in the yarn punching that the punch should be from the back of the canvas... but 1/4 of the way through, you flipped it and punched from the front? I get that it is not an easy craft... and that the stiches pull easily... but... yrah... the 2 sides are different. The "stiches" should be on the back. The "fluffy loops" on the front. But... maybe i am confused? 🤷🏼♀️
Moving again? I do not envy you. Although I think you mentioned previously that you had a lot in storage, so I hope you had less to do this time. I would get ragey too over that project 😂 I would actually be more radey with the diamond painting. I don't like intricate things like the really detailed colouring books, so those would not be my thing. I would also get annoyed if the gems weren't perfectly placed. I hate seeing gaps between them because some gems were placed too low or high or right or left etc.
😂😂 I’m sorry I couldn’t help but laugh at your rage. This video made my day. Diamond art is fun and relaxing for me. I used Moriah Elizabeth’s code to get a kit like last year. It was a sunset over the ocean scene and it turned out beautiful. It’s so satisfying and relaxing. I also do adult coloring too 😊
Honestly, I don’t think I’d have the patience for either of these… My mom bought me one of those diamond brass kits and I haven’t touched it yet because I know I don’t have patience for it. I’m a very quick sketcher (the rest of the work in more patient with) and a fast painter. I get good results, don’t get me wrong. But things like this? I’d lose my mind. I’ll stick with needlepoint and knitting when I want to do mindless stuff. I can still do that quickly and do other things like watch TV when I do it.
I remember doing the needle punching thing as a kid with my grandma! ❤ I‘ve tried diamond painting during Christmas. I found a Bob Ross picture on a canvas that had a hut „coloured“ for diamond painting and I got some Christmas themed stickers. I have to say it’s not for me. I do not have the patience for it because I‘m not making progress as fast as I like. Something I struggle with in crocheting, too
That was how I felt about diamond painting before I found the Paintgem sets. They are are small size and can be finished in an hour or two. I love the immediate satisfaction I get with the smaller ones. I can sit for hours working on multiple of them at a time, but I can not get into working on bigger canvases, even though I would spend the same amount of time on them.
Regarding Meta using your pictures to train their AI, you should be able to opt out of it. I recently got an email about this update, and there was a link where you could click if you didn't want your pictures to be used. There's also a helpful reddit thread about what to write in the boxes where they ask you why you want to opt out. I don't know if they'll ACTUALLY respect people's requests cause I wouldn't trust meta with a grain of rice but it's something I guess
I'm not tired of hearing you complain, I feel likeyou are doing an honest review of the product. It's better when you don't pretend, I think it helps us identify with you easier.
I'm the exact opposite with the 5D painting. I'd hate something small like that. When I look for kits size is a big selling point. The bigger the better.
"Take your brain out and throw it in a lake" brilliant yes there are definitely days like that! I got my SEN students into diamond painting before covid was a thing. It kept them entertained for hours and they loved it. Lots of beautiful designs and they turn out so well. Thanks for another great video Chloe
I got paint gems but there were not as many in the pack I got. I got the travel pack. I had it months and only completed one lol I need to do some more
If you really get into this, there are more tools that make applying multiple stones easier. There's a wheel tool that lets you fill in a row at a time, as well as other things. Tweezers and application tools with built in lights, anyone?
Diamond paintings are so much fun! I really wish an eco friendly alternative would come out though, I love doing them but I don’t display them so it feels like such a waste 😭
I liked the diamond painting kit, I agree much better when it’s smaller ones. My sister and I did some on holiday last year, they’re still not finished cos they were too big to do on holiday and they’re just sat in a cupboard since! Great video 😊
Why am I so old? 😭 You said "Miley Cyrus's mouth" ☠️ The Iconic Rolling Stones 'Tongue' logo, original artwork created by John Pasche in the early 1970s 👄
I love diamond painting. I didnt think i would but i find it sooooo relaxing. I just do a few hours a week so it takes me forever but i love the process.
