Nice stash. Very beautiful and varied theme paintings. For the wizardi ornament maybe buy dotz stick and make your own poured glue and saving/using clear cover from another painting. The attaching of your own tape is not something I would enjoy either. Edit: it ok not to feel like doing older paintings with worse quality. I have felt like that too with my older Aliexpress purchases before discovering trough your channel how much hand rendering makes artwork look nice and crisp and trying Diamond Dotz for myself. I cringe at some of the older finished pieces now from few years ago from Tinmi arts because of the rendering. I thought they were "top quality" because of canvas and glue back in the day.
Yeah, it's hard to go back from top quality American (and not only) brands back to aliexpress ones that lack hand rendering. Most likely I'll give that Aliexpress kit away. As to the poured glue - it's a great idea, actually! I haven't even thought of that: it can make a difference! Thank you so much for a tip!
You’re not grumpy! ❤❤❤You’re just being honest. I think you should take the little house with the double sided adhesive missing and the one from Ali Express and donate them. Get them out of your stash and out of the equation of what to work on next and all that etc etc. I recently gave a lady 3 paintings that I fell out of love with and gave my daughter 6 more. Sometimes we have to cut our losses and let stuff go. The rest of your stash is perfect and those two interlopers have to go 😂 Thanks for sharing Nat 🤗
I have about the same amount. I finished the Make Market pumpkin table scape and it turned out beautiful. If you have a Hobby Lobby nearby I found some kits on clearance
Thank you Terri for the information. Unfortunately I don't have Hobby Hobby nearby although I love this store! I'm planning dping pumpkins after my current kit - it looks like my daughter's teacher loves Fall & pumpkins, so I'll give it to her as a gift for Thanksgiving))

Omg, Cathy! Thank you so much for the idea - I haven't even thought of that! I should definitely give both of them away!
