Found you over the weekend and now going back to past videos. I totally love how authentic you are. I have been doing diamond painting since 2019. Like you I went crazy with the Diamond Art Club and became a diamond member very fast. I donated a bunch of my paintings that I thought I would never get to in Santorini happened to be one of them. It is a beautiful painting. I also bought the Harry Potter crest for my daughter to do and it’s GORGEOUS!
I am so glad you found me! Thank you for watching 🥰 I’m hoping that once I get my wishlist to 0 with DAC I can really put a completion dent in my stash and start grabbing more from the small shops too!
Girl, I'm with you, I don't care where all the ABs go and I don't need to be shown every color in detail of the canvas. Just showing the pack of drills to get a sense of the color palette is enough for me. I thought I was the only one!
I love how genuine your excitement is!! I feel the exact same way when my packages arrive, its so fun!! I feel like I was opening these myself I got so much joy out of watching :) Cant wait to see more of your content, keep it up!!
Hi Ashley, I love the square kits over the round. I seem to have straighter lines with the square drills. I also cover the pink lines from where the perforated plastic was placed on the canvas backwards easily. Some people are using markers or mica powder to cover the pink lines. You’d have to get 2-3 inches from the canvas to see them so I’m not hung up on that. I’m 72 years old. Don’t have time to get hung up on the small stuff. I really do enjoy your videos. Keep them coming. Thanks.
Wow! Girl!! I have never wanted this image more than right now after watching your video! Ughh and the sad thing is, I have seen this fairy for a long time now and always wanted it because “I liked it” but now “I love it, and NEED her!” Holy grail the colors are so vibrant! I never realized how beautiful the colors were. So thank you for making this! Btw I’m new to your channel this is my very first video of yours lol I subscribed ❤
Yes, all mystery kits are squares. Because the canvas is black and white, if it were round drills, you'd see the black and white between the drills. Ignore the colors on the canvas when you do it - the colors are to hide the image. Only pay attention to the symbol.
Great video! Thanks for sharing the kits you picked up; I am hardcore fan-girling over Aniefel - she's in my stash as well and is truly such a stunning piece! 😍Keep up the good work, I'll slowly be getting caught up on all your content thus far! 😁
Hi! I am loving your videos. Your excitement is contagious. I wanted to share that DP With Sparklers offers enhancement kits for diamond paintings. I purchased the one for "Ainefel" by Margaret Morales which includes some crystal drills, metallic drills, etc. I can't wait to kit up with the enhancement drills for this kit.
Yay! I’m currently putting an order together with them because I’m looking to completely rechart this new kit I got. You will see it in a future unboxing!
Love love your video! ❤ I absolutely love how excited you are seeing your kits for the first time!!! 🤩 I am the same way! Can’t wait to se more of your videos!
Please stay the person you are. You started making videos and now I have a channel to come to when I don't want to listen to plastic noises for 45 minutes. I watch diamond art videos while I'm doing homework and honestly I'm not an ASMR person. I'm autistic and I find packaging noises deeply disturbing. So I'm glad you don't flip though every single packet of drills and im glad there's finally an unboxing channel (that I know of) that doesn't do that.
I couldn't agree more. While the packet noise doesn't bother me, pointing out & showing every packet is so deadly dull & apparently a way to fill time on a video. Please try not to succumb to other content creator's need to do this. Here's hoping you can be different! 😊
Enjoyed the video! Nice canvas choices! Some of your remarks made me laugh😅. Too funny! Would love to see a WhipNChat one of these days. Look forward to your next video! 😊
Ok just finished the video. I loved it. (1) You get 15 baggies so definitely not enough to kit up in. I use them sometimes to de-kit but other times I am lazy and toss the extra drills. (2) we have similar tastes in diamond paintings (and while I prefer squares I like to do rounds too so it doesn’t impact my purchase choices). I actually have Warm Witch, Bouquet and In Santorini. I am going to Santorini next summer on a cruise - bucket list destination - so I am saving it to work on when I get back. What a sweet, thoughtful gift for your in laws. Please share your completions!!
That’s awesome! My mom turns 60 next year and we are planning an Alaskan cruise! I’ve been thinking about which diamond painting to take with me to work on while on the ship!
I’m with you, the eyes need to be fixed. You can’t go wrong with changing and editing the image, nothing is permanent. Take the drills off and change them until you are pleased with it. “Bouquet” will be so beautiful !
Ainefel is gorgeous made up. I have been fortunate and have all the Morales kits so far and Ainefel is the only one I have done. If I could leave a picture on this comment I would.
I’m working in collecting all of her kits! I’m only missing Hades and Persephone, Ajisai, Dragon Spirit, and Chroma! I’m sure they will come back in stock and I will grab them the moment I see them! lol
I’ve done In Santorini for my daughter. They went on a delayed honeymoon cruise to the Mediterranean and stopped In Santorini. It was a joy. I loved the colors. My only suggestion is that you do keep the plastic dust cover. It’s an extra protection and prevents the dust from the back of the canvas. Also, I know you just started but one day your taste may change and you may decide to destash a kit. Having a dust cover is definitely preferable. What is your FB name so I can look for your posts in the DP Florida Residents.
Another great post !! The bellybutton of death !!😂 You usually make me lol at least once per post. Food for thought: some/many people cannot afford premium kits, don't alienate them 😉
I think the one called bouquet with the slightly crossed eyes is because she’s turned her head slightly. If you put it up on the wall and look at a distance, it might be different. I’m not sure though. It’s been a while since you did this video so I don’t know if you finished it.
Hi! Great video! You are very eloquent and a lot of fun! Quick tip, if you add the word “haul” to the title and description, it’s a highly searched key word and your video will get thrown out there for more views 😊
@@DiamondsAreAGirlsBestFriend16 Thank you for watching and the great tip! Do you think adding it as a hashtag in the description is enough or should it really go in the title of the video?
@@messygirlcrafts ooo good question I’m not sure. I don’t usually mess with hashtags. I’m hearing they aren’t as important as they used to be. Most important is the thumbnail which you nailed! Then title and then keywords in the description. As well as an engaging intro. I’m still working on the intro stuff myself
@DiamondsAreAGirlsBestFriend16 Thank you so much for the insight! I’m so new to this but I’m really loving the community aspect and sharing. I look forward to watching some of your content as well!
I was hoping that they were to put lids on the trays because my last project was a mess with drills on the floor I’m still finding drills to this day and I finished my project in July
Oh no!! 😬 The lids definitely make a world of difference. I’m spoiled because I only started diamond painting after these came out with the kits. 😅 Thank you for watching!
This is the second video I have watched of you and you are a breath of fresh air! Love all you represent!
Thank you! It’s scary to do things differently but I’ve received a ton of encouraging comments so I will continue being me!

Omg hi!! I’m 72 also, but on the inside! 😂♥️ Thank you so much for watching!
I am watching all of your replays! Enjoying your channel so much!
I think you’re amazing . Love your honesty ❤️
Thank you so much!!
You are so much fun. Keep it up 😊
Thank you!!
Love love love the paintings. Some i have on my wishlist and I have purchased. I'm living all your videos so far 😊❤
Yay! Thank you!
I am WITH YOU on the fairy one! Not normally my vibe and I don’t usually do rounds but that color palette got me!
Wow! Girl!! I have never wanted this image more than right now after watching your video! Ughh and the sad thing is, I have seen this fairy for a long time now and always wanted it because “I liked it” but now “I love it, and NEED her!” Holy grail the colors are so vibrant! I never realized how beautiful the colors were. So thank you for making this! Btw I’m new to your channel this is my very first video of yours lol I subscribed ❤
Right?! The colors demanded that I buy her!! Thank you for subscribing ♥️

That makes so much sense!
I too love Margaret Morales. I have every piece that she has with DAC because she is a must buy hands down favorite artist for me.
Great video! Thanks for sharing the kits you picked up; I am hardcore fan-girling over Aniefel - she's in my stash as well and is truly such a stunning piece! 😍Keep up the good work, I'll slowly be getting caught up on all your content thus far! 😁
She’s so stinkin gorgeous! I can’t wait to work on her ♥️ Thank you so much for watching and supporting the channel! 🥰

Love that Hogwarts shield. I just finished it and it came out great! I am a total HP geek and I live for it
Love your video and I'm so glad you did not go through each kids and their drills I enjoy you thank you
Thank you for that feedback, it helps me! Thank you for watching ♥️
I personally like to see the drill colors. I will watch unboxing specifically to see the drill colors. Love your videos!
Thank you for watching! I will definitely go over those in the kit ups.
Love love your video! ❤ I absolutely love how excited you are seeing your kits for the first time!!! 🤩 I am the same way! Can’t wait to se more of your videos!
You are right my DAC wishlist is ridiculous and still growing. 😂 I'm new to DP and your channel. 😊
@@stayshaE Welcome to the channel and the world of diamond painting! I’m so glad you’re here! 🙂

I promise I will! ASMR noises are not my vibe. I tried to make a short with diamond painting ASMR noises and it triggered me so I deleted it 😂

Omg I love the way you do unboxings! You are so fun, glad I found you!
I love how "unpracticed" you sound! Just truely excited and loving the craft!!
100% unpracticed 😂♥️
Loved the video 🧡 When I get the mystery I do look at other pieces by the artist and if their vibe is what I like I know I will probably like it.
I do that too!
I love your videos! I can not wait for more!
17:26 this painting was my 2nd painting from DAC, it was in may and still one of my favorites :3
edit: BTW, I think this is my favorite haul video
That's so cool! How many do you think you've done total? I'm about to start #4. Also, thank you for being so kind!
My name is Ashley and I’m also a millennial and also recently became obsessed with diamond painting! lol ❤❤❤
Twinsies!!!! ♥️
Enjoyed your video. Don't know how many you have posted but this was my first one. 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
Oraloa has hawain themed paintings 😊
Enjoyed the video! Nice canvas choices! Some of your remarks made me laugh😅. Too funny! Would love to see a WhipNChat one of these days. Look forward to your next video! 😊
You’re getting your WIP + chat wish very soon! Thank you for watching ♥️

I went crazy when I found DAC too.
I can hardly wait to join Diamond Art Club Got to wait til the holidays are over. But you got me excited to join lol
You are going to love it! 🤩 They have lots of discount codes too, so you typically don’t have to worry about paying full price!
I’m with you, the eyes need to be fixed. You can’t go wrong with changing and editing the image, nothing is permanent. Take the drills off and change them until you are pleased with it. “Bouquet” will be so beautiful !

I haven’t finished it yet! When I do I will try that first to see if that fixes the problem, thanks for the recommendation 💖

@@messygirlcrafts you’re already doing amazing!! It will be fun having you in the community ☺️
Great video! New subscriber now too btw!
Thank you for subscribing! 💖
I wish they would release the mystery kits as a second release
Yes! Or maybe once a year they did a final run of all the limited edition stuff. Or maybe a pre order?
I was hoping that they were to put lids on the trays because my last project was a mess with drills on the floor I’m still finding drills to this day and I finished my project in July
Oh no!! 😬 The lids definitely make a world of difference. I’m spoiled because I only started diamond painting after these came out with the kits. 😅 Thank you for watching!
anytime I also subscribe to you because I’m looking for more people who also diamond paint like me 😅☺️
I'm surprised DAC hasn't come out with a log book yet
They have a beta version on their website for items purchased with them but I’m not sure if you can add non DAC kits in there. I will need to try!
Wait your in florida me too
You should do a love so all of us can meet you 😊
I’m hoping to do a live in the next month or so and drag on a friend 😂♥️
You definitely should ❤️
I also love your videos you're kind of like me I love diamond art 😍
