Yeah I totally agree! I was going to mention that but didn't want to overcomplicate things. I generally use a wax pencil all the time instead of the pen that comes with the kit. Thanks Gina ☺️ x
This is gorgeous,it's a brilliant kit,the colours are lovely.Thank you for the tutorial,I did some keyring charms a while ago,but I found that I was all fingers and thumbs and things got very sticky! I need to be more organized next time.I'd totally forgotten about the final cleaning and applying the Mod Podge.I need to go to Beebee Crafts and see what they've got,something simple to start me off.Take care,love and hugs.xxxx
Thanks Gill. It really is gorgeous and great quality. It can take a few practices to feel comfortable with it so don't give up! Beebeecraft have some nice stickers which are perfect to start with x
Very good tutorial Fiona 😊 I'm 28 minutes, but need a nap, so I'll finish watching when I get up! Ok, I finished your video, and that owl is adorable ❤
Wow Fiona, that turned out really pretty. So colorful! I love it. I do have a question. Are the numbered and lettered dills that same for every kit that you get? Like is #2 the same color in each kit? I am guessing not but in embroidery floss, the numbers are universal.
Yes the colours are amazing Sally. That is a brilliant question, and the answer is yes and no haha. The colours of the symbols, letters or numbers don't match every kit, however some kits give you the dmc number for each colour which isn't relevant to the kit you're doing, but the dmc number is universal. I don't know if that makes sense haha x
I went through a diamond painting stage, but i ended up getting really frustrated as everyone i watched used the long pens that pick up multiple drills at a time, and i had no luck with it at all! They were always miss-alligned, or falling off of the pen.. but then doing a painting with the singular pen felt painfully slow compared to what i was seeing others do. 🤣 This has inspired me to try again with a small picture and single pen :) thanks fiona!
Aw i know what you mean- I can't use the multi placers at all! Definitely give it another go- make some keyrings or stickers because they're so quick and fun x
Iv been doing Dimond painting since August 2022 Iv have never sealed then but got some glitter mod podge because going to start because i got one for them Dimond painting shoppings bags for Christmas and Iv find when they on the wall the drills some off over time
Beautiful I luv doing diamond painting thanku.
My pleasure. Thanks Debra 😊 x
This is great, Fiona! I always wondered how doing these diamond paintings worked!😁
They look so complicated when you see the final product, but it's so simple when you break it down. Thanks Tammy x
What a lovely colourful owl I haven't done any diamond art in ages
You really should go back to it Fiona! The colours on the owl really are gorgeous x
Hi Fiona the owl turned out beautiful 😍, Great explaining 👌 they are very relaxing thanks for sharing ❤❤❤ xxx
@michelle_resinrebel aw thanks Michelle 😊 x
i ound a wax pencil is good to pick up the bigger drills and it can be sharpened

Yeah thats a good idea. Any that don't get handled much should be OK unsealed but things like bags would be better sealed to protect them x
