The sparkles on the DAC canvases are giving me life!!!! I can't wait to order my first one from that company! I order from Paint With Diamonds and they don't do the AB or fairy dust gems 😢
I know, I love the AB and fairy dust gems too! If you’re going to try out DAC, I’d be really interested in hearing what you think of them! And make sure you use a discount code when you order to save you some $$$. Also, there are going to be some giveaways coming where you might be able to win yourself canvases or gift cards, so I hope you stick around!
@SummerSparkles I am ordering one soon! I can't wait. I will def hang around...i never win anything lol. I will let you know when i make my first purchase. Ik I'll love the canvas! Girl you know I got codes on desk lol
Awesome! Can’t wait to hear what your first DAC kit will be!!! Mine was Willa by Myka Jelina and still one of my most favorite finishes! You never forget your first lol!
Holy Conveyor Belt of Beauty, Batman! You are a machine, Miss Summer! I just found your channel and BOY it started with a BANG! Your DP tastes are so eclectic and you showcased so many shops. Not only that, your presentation was so organized. I truly appreciated that you had all the stats at your fingertips. Thank you for sharing all those enchanting finishes. Two of those shops were new to me. I just finished a kit from Indigenous Collections, a company that offers budget friendly kits by exclusively Indigenous Peoples that I found to be pretty decent quality AND licensed. I'm excited to see what you do in 2025. Happy New Year!
I am so glad you found my channel! I'm super excited to have you here. 2024 was a fairly decent year, and lol I'm aware my tastes can be eclectic. I have to be organized or I get very agitated, but I'm thinking of filming a "Behind the Scenes" portion of this video next year showing how I get everything ready for the video to be filmed - it's a lot of work and a lot of crazy lol. I have more amazing plans for 2025 and am hoping to add more new to me shops into the lineup, Indiginous Collections is actually on my list to order from! Along with a few others. Happy New Year to you too!
I’m so glad you noticed! I work hard to ensure I have a great mix of kits at different price points! While still trying for good quality across the board! Hope all is well with you and yours Linda!
I think you had a very productive (diamond painting wise) 2024. I only finished 12 and I am retired ( of course one of them was a 100 x 100 confetti nightmare piece). Have a joyful 2025
It’s amazing what you were able to do with your time and energy, you go girl! I don’t think I would have had the perseverance to get through that 100x100 confetti nightmare! Love you DPB!
Well. I am speechless. After all the trials and tribulations you had in 2024 and you only painted for 8 months and you still did all those monster kits??? I joined your channel around the Mr Fish finish and had NO idea you had a massive hoard of GORGEOUS completed kits! 😱 Remember when I kept saying give yourself some grace? Well forget that!!! No grace! 😂 Now that I see what your talented, magic hands can do - go place drills!!!!! Bahahahahahaha 😂 Well done my dear. You outdid yourself despite the obstacles. You did so many large, complicated, stunning canvasses. The specials and little ones are great too. Ok-so I wasn’t speechless-just blown away and I applaud your efforts and fabulous finishes🎉So glad I’ll be along for the ride in 2025! Mwah 💋
I’m so happy you’re along for the ride in 2025! You know, I’m actually glad I didn’t diamond paint for the first four months of the year! I was in a really rough place and I needed the time. But I’m back and after how mean 2024 was to me, I’m believing 2025 is going to be fantastic! When I have time, I’m a fairly quick diamond painter, it’s just this working nonstop crap that slowed me down lol. Love you Cathy!
Thanks, I’m super proud of myself, and my WIP parade really keeps me motivated! Those go up most Wednesdays. They also help keep me accountable to keep my stash under control lol. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment.
I love doing those too! It’s so gratifying to see all that we’ve finished in a year! And my WIP Parades really keep me motivated! And your comment just inspired an idea! I’ll be texting you lol
Did you even sleep in 2024? Lol. Idk how you got so many paintings done, plus most were huge! They' re so gorgeous & sparkly. You picked some beautiful kits. I'm amazed at what you accomplished. Good on you! How are you sorting the stacks as you finish showing us the pictures? What do you plan on doing with them? Do you frame & hang, give them as gifts, put in portfolios? I'm a new sub. 😊
lol yes I did indeed sleep, but diamond painting is my primary hobby plus my sanity lol. And according to people out there in TH-cam Land, I’m a fairly fast painter at that. I’m pretty much in love with most of my finishes. I have a few earmarked as gifts, I have a large selection I’ll keep indefinitely because I couldn’t bear to part with them. I have no idea what I’ll do with the rest. They’re currently rolled up and boxed. We’ll see as time goes by what I end up doing with all of them lol.
Hi! I loved this video, what fun finishes! I had 31 to my 2024. What a fun DP year. Love your fun personality, you’re really fun to watch! I’m off to watch your WIP graveyard video. I’m so curious as to what that means!
Thanks...my name is Summer not Debbie though lol. I'm not sure if you got autocorrected or misheard me lol No harm no foul though. You had an awesome year, I already watched your end of the year video - how fun that you had your brothers help! Thanks for watching and commenting!
You are killing it! Way to go! I am in awe of all you accomplished. 🤯 I very rarely single place and couldn’t imagine how much more time that would take. You go girl!
Thanks Nancy! I do try to keep an assortment of canvases from multiple price points. Heart Dagger is a 60 x 60 cm, and I do believe I have done approximately 1/3 or less on it. So I would assume there's about a 40 x 60 cm section left to finish.

Great work! I got 19 done (single placer) this year and bringing 3 wips in.
You are killing it! Way to go! I am in awe of all you accomplished. 🤯 I very rarely single place and couldn’t imagine how much more time that would take. You go girl!
Hi Summer! Wauw... You did great! ❤
Thank you! 🤗 you’re awesome!
Nice budget canvases. You found some good ones and clear images. 😊
I would like to finish it but how big is it?
Thanks Nancy! I do try to keep an assortment of canvases from multiple price points. Heart Dagger is a 60 x 60 cm, and I do believe I have done approximately 1/3 or less on it. So I would assume there's about a 40 x 60 cm section left to finish.
