How I Prepare And Finish Diamond Paintings To Hang On The Wall
Welcome in, and welcome back!! Thank you for spending your time with me today.
I finished this painting for my therapist recently, and needed to finish it up to give to her, so I thought I’d show you guys how I go about that.

This is amazing! I love that you gave this to your therapist as a gift. I know it was a pain to use rubbing alcohol, but I think it really paid off.
It definitely worked! And if anything, it's a nice workout. Hahaha. I might try using a toothbrush next time. 🤔
Turned out really well! I hope your therapist loved it! I used the rubbing alcohol too when I did a lighter background so try to avoid it now. 😅
Thank you! She loved it, and immediately put it up in her office. :] And I agree! If I can avoid using the rubbing alcohol, I think I will. It worked, but did make the canvas feel a little funny!
New sub here! I look forward to seeing what other companies you tried. 😊
Welcome!! I've tried a lot of them, so you won't be disappointed! :]
hi i subbed to u
:D Thank you so much!
Loved this!! I loveeeee my cup of bee. That is so cute!! I am a huge cutebutweird fan!
It's so cute, and such a small kit, it's perfect for an end of year finish!
I don’t know anything about Ghibli so….😅😅 This company is at the top of my list post detox!
They are adorable movies! I think they're all on HBO now, go watch them!!
I think my favorite part about your videos is the little sinister giggle you have 😂 it’s fun listening to you! The lighting is fantastic, by the way. Although, I have to ask- what do you do with your diamond paintings once they are finished?
I usually hang them up, actually! I have few enough finishes that I still have wall space. Once that runs out, I'm going to get an under bed tote and store them there. :]
@ oh okay! I didn’t know if anyone sold completed diamond art paintings. It makes sense though! I’m learning a lot from your videos about diamond painting, it’s very difficult to not buy a kit for myself!
@CyDoll93 I've seen a couple people selling them online, and mom likes to rehome hers. :] I think you'd really enjoy it. 😉
@@shire_shenanigans I like that your mom rehomes her paintings! It’s a good idea to gift finished paintings. My girls would really love these as well!
@@CyDoll93 I'm going to start sending you links. Hahaha
You got so many good ones! The smile on that elf is what got me! She's so happy!
She is! I just love the Femke's, they're so happy!!
I love those Ghibli kits! They are just so cute!!
They are! I was shocked that they are ALSO stickers!
It's Gigi 😆Luna is Sailor Moons black cat <3 LOVE YOU.
I knew it as soon as I said it. Hahaha
Hello I missed that one but I got the January love it ❤❤❤❤
Yay!! These are my favorite little boxes. They're so cute, and useful!
Finally! Someone with a stashdown/organization issue like mine. I am SO looking forward to catching up on these videos and joining in. I just got all of my stuff out of storage and I'm looking at a living room full of boxes - most of which is yarn.
It's so overwhelming! I spend a lot of time just staring at it, thinking of what I'd make, then I get too inspired and have to walk away. 😅 You're definitely not alone!
@shire_shenanigans @shire_shenanigans I'm starting now ish with 2 exceptions for buying because there are 2 items I'd like to make that would need a booster skein. Other than that, there is no buying. And I have NO idea what all I have. Maybe I'll log it as I unpack it?
I'm totally in! (though I will have to have "outs", because I will be purchasing yarn at my local textile center garage sales) but I do need to use up a good 5K grams of yarn this next year. I love the idea of just weighing out the finished projects without knowing how much yarn I have on hand. You can totally knit a sweater this year. I highly recommend using your advent yarn to knit a sweater!
Working in loopholes is how you make something like this work! And thank you! I have a few sweater patterns in mind for my first. :]
They are cute but the one I am working on, a corgi, has drills popping off of it. I also had a less than stellar experience with the quality of the shipping. I do have a larger canvas from them which i am nervous to work on, if it is anything like this corgi. I'm glad they are putting sticker sheets in now.
Oh no! Is it a square? I finished my cow recently and didn't have an issue, but it's a round. I will say that they are very receptive to feedback. But I hope your larger one is a better experience. 🫂
@shire_shenanigans it is a square, yes.
I can’t wait to see the progress!!! And the light purple adds such an accent, but I love the darks too! I feel like you can’t go wrong with this!!
It'll be cool to see how ours look finished!
This is going to be such a fun comparison!!!!!
😘😘
I am so FREAKIN excited to see this series!!!
It's going to be so nice to Stitch again. :]
I'm excited to your progress on these! It'd be neat to see them side by side
Thank you! It'll be fun to show a true comparison between the two crafts.
Adorable! I loved the little yelp when you got to the book sleeve! 😆
IT'S SO CUTE
15:36 is my new text tone
The sound of the tray opening?
@@shire_shenanigans The sound of your airways opening when you say the label lol
@@WolfManCrabArms Oh gosh. Hahahahaha
You can never have enough pens!!! I love the color varieties!!!!!
Agreed! I'm trying to add some variety to my sea of pink and purple.
They are all so cute!!!
I finished the cow the other day! I still need to post the picture on Instagram. It turned out so cute 😍
I love your cow pen so much! And omg... I never thought about why bew called them chrysalis pens. 🤦♀️😂 That makes so much sense though. 😅 I really like mine too! I love how well the ephemera3d trays are printed too. 😉😆 I think the pumpkin is just a fidget toy. That's all I could figure out from mine. 😂
I confirmed, it is a fidget spinner!! Once I recover it from Ren, I'll try it out like that. Hahaha
I need to do this I taught myself to knit about 15 years ago I love making wearables for myself and family I've taken to Molly Weasley idea of knit gifts for the family lol this year I learned how to crochet and idk why I learn something and the first thing I try making is a blanket smh anyway since knitting takes a bit longer I usually kept my stash to ehh maybe 4 boxes that fit under a table enough for 10 or so projects at a time then I saw people crochet scrap blankets and thought ohh I can do that with the really small scraps that I've already used for at least 2 things all well and good then I spotted a rainbow pack of 12 and went bingo mom's holiday present did that and made a couple stuffed animals realized how quickly crochet works up I had scraps from the rainbow blanket needed a few more colors to change things up there were good sales .... umm I don't remember what color my carpet is my yarn stash has exploded it's everywhere now
It's insane so quickly it just explodes! You plan all these projects, but get distracted planning more projects instead of DOING THEM, and then suddenly you have no room to move.
The dragon is cute! Looking forward to your thoughts on the bigger canvases!
Yes! I just finished my mini, and I'll be kitting up the dragon soon! :]
Soooooooo much confetti!!!!! Noooooo! Give me the color blocking!!!!
The cow 😍😍😍 I love a cow hahahaha and yes I do love all the confetti in that book kit for sure! Excited to see you work on the larger ones as I’ve only seen the minis worked on from this company- to be honest I didn’t even realize they sold bigger kits 😅
I actually didn't either until I went to order! I did just free up a container... 👀
Awww, I feel you, not having a great week either here. Enjoyed this video though and ahhh I may have to have you do a Swifie pen holder for me…hmmm…
I'll bet I could handle that. :]
Yay! Loved seeing your face!!!!
😘 I love doing these like little chit chats!!
I love you! Kit up all the things! 😂😂 So glad to see your month in review! ❤❤
I love YOU! ❤ I did just buy 2 new EW containers 👀
I’ve never heard of this but I’m going to order some for Olive for Christmas. Such a good gift idea!
I kept getting ads and caved! They're so cute, she's going to love them!
That was a very cool box! Nothing for halloween here. We only had one trick or treater last year! The perks of living on a dead end road. 😅
Our neighborhood has no lights at night, so we don't get very many either. I miss seeing the kiddos, buts it's kind of nice to have a quiet night 😅
Thanks for showing these to us! I've always been curious about Pipsticks. This video has convinced me to give them a try!
Anytime love! :D
It has a slot on the other side so you can put stickers on both sides
OH MY GOSH are you serious? I'm going to have to go check, thank you!!
I THOUGHT METEION IMMEDIATLY AND ALMOST BOUGHT HER JUST FOR THAT REASON.
YES!! I want to buy a second one so I can do her Endsinger colors!
@@shire_shenanigans Thats a brilliant idea
You're right! The L's are iridescent(crystal). These are all such cute small kits! I hope you're starting to feel better! I say 5 new starting out. lol.
Thank-you! I always forget when I go to film, you'd think I'd learn. Hahaha. And I am feeling a bit better. :] 5 is a much nicer guess. Hahaha
Ooh, always fun to see others taste! Cloud Angel is probably my favorite you showed for all those great colors! I may need to look into a hanging rack like that for myself
It's so fun to be able to just flip through them and look whenever I want! I think everyone should have one. Haha
hahaha I'll jump in with the others...26 trays! Your joy (and little giggles) was just so much fun! ooo you probably could just use extras to fix Taurus ❤
I'm really hoping so. 🤞 It's a lot of extras, but I can always set it aside and just scrape together extras for awhile. Hahaha I JUST connected that 26 trays would mean every kit. We could have a kit up slumber party!
OMG I NEVER EVEN SAW THE GOLDEN STICKER. I thought it didn’t have one. I am so sorry!! 😅 26 EW is my vote. 😂 I love this video and YOU so much.
Ooo, I could justify one of those sweet EW tray holder towers with 26 trays. 🤔 That poor little sticker was so smooshed. Hahaha, but it still sticks!
This made my day 🎉❤ Also buy 26 EWs so you can kit them all up. Duh. 😂😂
I knew you would be here 🤣🤣 also yeah, 26!
Ahahaha, only if you come help me!
I agree with making shire shenanigans a business page that just has all of the crafts you enjoy and any shop updates that come out! I don't think it has to be centered on a specific craft. Hint taken... I'll make sure to go and leave reviews for all the shops. 😂 I just order way too much and it gets overwhelming. 😅 I like all the coverminders. I'm running out of room on my board, but lately most of mine have been pins that I've been converting into minders
A lot of small shops feel weird asking for reviews, but it really does make Etsy take notice. And that sounds like it's time to get another board. Hahaha
I really live the wood’s material in your shop. They are just unique. I also like some resin and clay ones too.
Wood also smells so nice when being engraved. Hahaha I actually bought some clay recently to play with. 👀
I've been crocheting since I was 6.. I'm 59 now. I can make everything crochet. When people see me with my garments on, they say, 'you should make those for sale". I think the same as you, that's my hobby and entertainment, not my job. I tried selling baby sets many years ago. I only sold 4 sets, that made me stop crocheting for 2 years. I've given crochet items as gifts, and the people have not worn the items once. One of my family members even sold an afghan, I gave her at a garage sale.
Oh that is so heartbreaking! So many people don't realize how much time and work goes into making a piece. It can be really disheartening when you give a handmade gift like that and it just gets thrown in a closet. 🫂 We just gotta make beautiful things for us. :]
I love the book one! That’s so fun! I used to knit in college and you are inspiring me to get back into it😅😅
It fascinates me so much! As a crocheter, watching people knit is mesmerizing! I wanna do it!
This looks so cute! A good value for the tools and yarn that you get.
I thought so too! I'm excited to try it out.
I have like six of these boxes sitting in the corner of my craft room waiting for me to break into…I’m horrible…
Of this subscription? Hahaha Which did you get?? Knit or crochet?
@@shire_shenaniganscrochet! Knitting makes NO sense!
@@MenckArtsandCrafts oh I gotta know what you get in those! Please unbox soon!!
