I’m so glad you did a month in review after all. Even if you don’t get any finishes, it’s always nice to see your WIP progress and hear you summarize the month!
Thank you! I’m glad I did it too. Turns out I have plenty to share 😂🙈♥️
Love your first month in review! Perfect! And I love you advocating for yourself to keep people from stash count shaming. Loved it all!
I’m so glad you liked it! 💗 All haters can see there way out ✌🏼
@@messygirlcraftsperiod
Please keep the month in reviews coming J loved it. Also I love adult coloring too! I haven’t colored too much since 2017 but now I have the itch to pull my pencils and my romantic country book out. Thanks alot Michaela 🤣🤣🤣
Yay!!! Color buddy!!! The Romantic Country books are freakin beautiful. Michaela is the ultimate influencer 😂♥️
Bijou Bliss trays are my absolute favorite!
They really are the best!
I just wanted to say I think you are so awesome. I have ADHD and just listening to you chatting, your little tangents and your enthusiasm just makes me so happy and keeps me so engaged. I feel like you are kind of like me, the best form or beautiful chaos in such a sweet human ❤
You are so sweet, thank you so much!!
Why do people talk down to people with a big stash? It is a hobby and with any hobby people tend to accumulate a lot of items for their hobby and honestly some people have more fun collecting the paintings then doing them (me included lol)
Exactly! You get it ♥️
Congrats on your four finishes!! Here's to more finishes for the rest of the year! 🥳Also congrats on all your milestones and achievements! You have certainly achieved more than I did when I started diamond painting but I'm so happy to be able to celebrate your successes with you through your channel! I hope that the rest of the year brings you more successes for diamond painting, your other hobbies, and your TH-cam channel too!
Onyx Storm is a book that is on my TBR. I do buddy reads with a friend and we usually let a wheel choose our next book. It hasn't chosen Onyx Storm just yet but we're also glad that the wheel hasn't chosen it yet as just recently, Yarros stated that she won't be writing the next book for the Empyrean series for a while. There's no predicted date either as she wants to take more time with her family and she said she'll write the fourth book when she feels like it. So we gotta wait at least a couple years to read more about our favourite dragon riders 😭😭
"Everything's made up and the points don't matter!" Love the Whose Line reference! 🤣🤣
I love you for knowing that one 😂♥️
Yay another video to diamond art to! Thank you for sharing your other craft hobbies--I also enjoy coloring, puzzling and recently got hooked on building the miniature book nook kits 😄 Can't wait to see more unboxings from your stash!
I have book nook kits too!
We need a stash video from you! Would love to see your whole stash ❤❤
I think she’s waiting until she hits her 1 year mark. She’ll probably have 300 kits by then & I’m here to see all of them!
Ohhhhh it’s comin ♥️
I'm trying to buy more but can't afford all that I want and I usually always miss out on my most wanted on DAC
I’m sorry ❤️🩹
Love your month in review!! 🤩
Ashley I love your channel, look forward to watching many more months in review..
I won't miss a single video you share.. Much love to you 💞
Aw, you’re the best, thank you! 💖
Oh my gosh!! We are such kindred spirits!! I have also gotten back into coloring since Christmas! I have the Bambi color by number too! Thank you for suggesting the paint pens! When I saw double sided pages I cringed and wasn’t sure what I was going to do! I also love Johanna Basford coloring books too! I have one coco wyo that I am enjoying as well for a bold lined simple book. I love that you shared this new obsession!
It's so fun to rediscover coloring, right?! 😍 I have a couple Coco Wyo on my wishlist!!
My thought on having a stash is that it’s like my books. Do I have books I haven’t read yet? Of course I do, what good is a library if it’s full of books you’ve already read? 🤪
Great logic! I have to use this reasoning whenever My husband sees another package come in the mail 😂😂
That’s an amazing perspective. I have a diamond painting LIBRARY✨
😂😂♥️
Great video!! Thanks for sharing all your finishes for January! I've finished one painting so far this year, and I'm currently working on my only WIP. Plus, I have another kit up already for when my WIP is finished. 😊
Thank you for watching!! What are you working on?!
@messygirlcrafts I'm currently working on Black Heart Ballet by Christopher Lovell. It's squares and huge but only has 18 colours, lots of 310!
What a great use for the forever young set!!!
I think so! The only complaint I’ve really heard is about how full they get so I shouldn’t have a problem with minis!
Great Video. I totally forgot about adult coloring. Have to get them out again. Thanks for reminding me.
Ayyy! Happy to bring you back into the coloring fold ♥️
I’m really loving your channel and have so much fun watching you. I’m going to look into forever young. Those Walmart cards are adorable. ❤❤
Aw, thank you! I’m excited to try the Forever Young trays!
Awesome! You covered a lot of ground with this video! ❤
Thank you!!! I won’t lie, these are SO fun to make!
I am also a huge fan of Bijou Bliss trays. I wanted to try other shops trays but now I just cant bring myself to give money for trays to anyone else. She keeps coming out with the cutest designs. Just to enable you further, she released a mystery tray with a new lid design and i think new filament. I picked that up with the one you have with the potion bottle. Cant wait to get mine. Great video as always, hope you and Eric are well.
I saw the mystery tray listed!! I’m dying to see someone post it so I can decide if I need it! ♥️
@messygirlcrafts lol when mine comes i can send you the pic but i kinda doubt anyone will try to spoil the mystery.
@@melissabrooks4932 yes! Send it ♥️
@messygirlcrafts will do.
Open the cards up! I think you will find the cat and sushi one in that actual package! I did the tea one. It also has a coffee one and a xoxo one in it! They turned out adorable!
HOLY HELL YOURE RIGHT!!!! I’m jumping up and down and screaming!!!!
Amazing job sharing your first month in review :) I started diamond painting around December time and have purchased 26 DAC paintings in January alone and my wishlist is super long.... so I completely understand your stash number. I'm envious of it!! As always, love your videos and sending you all the best! Also, I use the FY storage system most of the time and absolutely love it.
Thank you so much! I’m excited to use the new system, especially for minis!
Side craft Sunday! You could do a video a month for your side crafts and see how they do!
Yes! I just finished filming my WIP + Chat and mentioned that type of video as an option!
Def do a coloring video! I’m down the same coloring rabbit hole currently! I haven’t been able to get the tooli art to work for me, so would love some tips and tricks on those and of course a tour!
Yay!!!! I’m so glad I’m not the only one on this train 😂♥️
@@messygirlcraftsI feel like a conductor in training currently! 😂
Ooh idea! Do a monthly check in on your bingo card in these videos!
@@mintgirl910 yes!!! I will add that next time, thank you!
Cozy cabin is in my stash and that’s coming out Absolutely beautiful.
Yay!!! You will have so much fun with it ♥️
Hey Friend!
Hi friend!! I hope you are doing well and life is treating you good 💖
You did amazing job sharing all the paintings you got done.❤
Thank you!!
I'd love to see you share your other craft finishes! 😍 Would be a lot of fun! Would you mind popping the link where you got the acrylic marker trays?
Thank you! Yes, check out my Amazon storefront linked in the description box and they are in there!
I use the Forever Young trays for my mini kits too. They work really nice. I don't know how you do all these things, keep house, work a job, complete dozens of diamond paintings, gaming, wife. Supergirl you are.
Thank you so much! It’s all about time management and never sleeping 😂♥️
I was watching her channel and she totally hooked me on the disney mystery colour by numbers and I finished my 1st 2 pages in the princess book yesterday and I am hooked. I now have a wishlist so I'm going to treat myself 1 book a month 😀 .
Please add these books to your channel ❤ x
Yes!!!! The books are so awesome! A lot of folks have been saying they would love to see other crafts so I might just have to!!
@messygirlcrafts I also now have an addiction to acrylic paint markers as they are are complete game changer. I now do a row of diamond painting and then a page in my colouring book, really helps with my anxiety.
I'm pleased I found your channel 😀 x
Loved your month in review. I didn't have a finish in January, I started a 60cm x 120cm in December and finished in the first couple of days of February. I only watch 2 diamond painting channels on youtube, Add more zest and your channel.
Aw, thank you! I need to check out add more zest! Definitely on my to watch list ♥️
I would love to see the other crafts you work on as well besides diamond painting.
Yay!! Thank you for letting me know ♥️
I use EW as my primary and for a secondary kit up I have the cylinder suitcase containers. Now I also have the Forever Young for small side projects ❤
Yay!! How are you liking FY system so far?!
Yes!! Forever Young. I was going to put a comment on your page about them. I love them! I’m actually diamond painting O Come Emmanuel from DAC with them. Only issue is they don’t work well multi-placing, but I do a lot of single placing.
I think they are going to be a game changer for me with minis!!
Can you share the link to those French coloring books please?
I am interested in seeing more coloring content from you.
Thank you for sharing l.
I've been working on my 1st official DAC painting which is Over the Rainbow Bridge by Peggy Collins for a couple weeks now. Im so happy with my progress so far. I put in my ear buds & listen to my music & i can easily paint for hours. My next purchase I think is going to either be Emerald City or Alice in Wanderland.
Those are amazing choices! Let us know which one you go with 💖
hey ashley where did you get that blue binder from with all ofyour treasure quest cards from i need one
It’s from Amazon! You can get the same one in my Amazon storefront linked in the description ♥️
@ ok thanks so much
If you already stated so , please forgive me i missed it but on those French Disney pages, are they single sided so the ink doesn't bleed through the page to the next image?
They are double sided, but my acrylic markers do not bleed through at all! You could also use water based markers like crayola supertips, but then you will see the numbers under the color and that would bother me personally
❤ I Lub ur videos awesome lady
Aw, thank you!!
I’m using the forever young boxes… life change!
@@cerosenau I’m excited to try them out!
I kitted up the Flower Delivery with 81 colors using Forever Young. It works so well and is clean!
Can you give us the link for the Ali Express small storage?
It’s in the description box now!
@@messygirlcrafts Thank you!
I’m excited for the Travis breakup album😂
It’s going to DESTROY us 😂♥️
I think you are awesome. Love you have built up a good stash. I started July 2024. I wish you would give captured by radiance a chance. I have fallen in love with them. It's 2 sisters that are amazing.
I am excited to unbox that kit with you all! The one I picked is gorgeous ♥️
Hi Ashley, yes , to a coloring tour video. Can you tell me Makayla utube channel. I’m sure you mentioned it but I forgot. I’m with you on the hobbies. I love to diamond paint, read , color, and now I’m wanting to try the 3D micro scene stickers. I love them all. Seems like never enough hours in a day to do these things. Have a great day, your neighbor Rita in Largo💚🌱🌿🐿️🦉
Hi Rita! Highly recommend checking out my girl Michaela!! You can find her on TH-cam by searching @michaelareneee
My stash is over 100 kits so I'm trying to get it close to 100 or under by the end of the year but I know that is ambitious. I'm trying not to feel the pressure to accomplish that so that is why I'm on a very restricted low buy to minimize my stash growth.
Very respectable! My limit is my space. I refuse to store paintings in multiple places in my home, so if it outgrows the area I have it then I need to chill lol
Ashley, I have a picture for you. How do I send it to you?
@@dassykreisman4971 you can send me a dm on Instagram
What is your Instagram account?
I just sent it to you
🤣🤣😘😘💖💖
🌻😘😘😘
I’m sorry you’re getting the mean comments! I hate when people steal our joy. I would love to have 195 diamond paintings. My stash is 8. 😂
8 is so good!!! I hope you enjoy every single one ♥️
What would you think of Mini Dazzles of the kitties/ critters from different DAC diamond paintings? Like 1of the ghost kitty from Spooky Gamer Girl that was just released & sold out lickity split, the kitty sleeping on the fairy in the blue dress that was also just released & ???? Help me convince DAC to make these, please. I love the kitties, but some of the DPs are too big or don't interest me & I also don't have the budget for them.😀 Anyone else like this idea?? Email DAC!! 🐱
I love Rudy Baby!! I didn't realize it was so big! (That's what she said. 😁) I love seeing your kitty too. She's adorable. ❤❤🐈💎🐱❤❤ I love seeing your wips, new stuff & new ideas.
That would be so cute to see small elements from the larger paintings in mini form ♥️
Hi, maybe you missed my question but will you hang up paintings that are not done or not kitted up on the rack too?the kitty is beautiful
Hey! Sorry if I missed it. I won’t hang up paintings that are not finished or active WIPs. Those will stay boxed up in my stash until I kit them up!
Hello Ashley 🤗🤗 love your channel! I bought the Diamond cards kits from Walmart. When you open the packet the cards displayed on the back of the package are actually inside, so hurray! You already have the ones you were looking for. Looking forward to March and the Mini event, it’ll be my first event. I’m new to Diamond painting, started September 24 with a few kits picked up from JoAnn and Walmart. I also did those same Micheal’s Christmas cards my friends loved them. Haha now have a few from Diamond Art Club 😂
I totally freaked when I opened the cards and saw the other two inside!!!
1:10:49 I'd think it be nice to see your other crafts from time to time especially because you're "messy girl CRAFTS"
Yay!! I’m glad you feel that way ♥️
I love coloring but definitely would need more of a color by number. I don't need another hobby passion though. Stop Ashley!!! 😅
Mwahahahah 😂♥️
