Very cute kit! I too am not a Halloween fan but I do love Fall; it’s my favorite season. I love my Elizabeth Ward trays for the same reason you do. They are my go to. Happy diamond painting! p.s. love your funnel; I have a smaller one for my EW trays.
I love watching you. I pick up so many tips. Just finished my 1st kit! I loved doing it and find diamond painting very relaxing. I’m disabled w/back problems and find I keeps my mind occupied! Thanks and best wishes from WI!
I love your videos. They have taught me so much. My hubby saw me kitting up in my only Elizabeth Ward tray and asked why I was using such large containers for small quantities of drills. When I explained that there was only one row of the extra small containers, he immediately went to Amazon and got me the 78 count tray of just the extra small boxes, so that I would have plenty. It was a awesome gift and I love having the correct size containers for the amount of drills I have.
Any time I can hear/watch one of your videos, no matter what the topic, I am all for it. I would love to learn new things or confirm things I already know, especially when done by you. As you know by now, I am a huge fan, and so YES, YES, YES, redo all the how-tos out there.
The tray tower is the BEST way to go!! When doing confetti areas the switching colors with bottles or Elizabeth ward boxes started to get mind numbing!! Now I just grab a tray! I permanently numbered them and put the DAC sticker on them when kitting up as a double check. I have to refer to the legend to find my next color but is so easy to find the number then. Just did a 78 color painting and it was a breeze with this system!!! 🙂
Love the halloween color scheme! During this video I was crocheting with a fun orange-purple-yellow veriegated yarn, to be in the spirit 😁For the Elizabeth Ward storage containers, I'd like to offer the Dungeons & Dragons sizing scheme, to avoid confusion: Large, Medium, Small, Tiny. I particularly like that it's not an X-large or X-small, but it has its own word! 😊
We lost our power just this morning, supposedly due to a vehicle damaging equipment. Luckily, it was off for only a couple of hours. But, like you, we have seen way too many power outages this year. Have a blessed day ❤
Hi Daphne, thanks for the Kit up. Yes, do a how to video aim at everyone, but remember they will be people watching who are high function Autism, and also all level of ADHD. I am severely ADHD. Like the Gnome one. Back in Christmas time 1962 my Mom bought Christmas Gnomes. Mom put the Gnomes at different places on our property in Lynwood,CA. My Mom took my sister and I out Christmas shopping. When we got home all the Gnomes had been destroyed. My Canadian Grandma thought Gnomes were evil, and destroyed them. Well, what do you expect from a woman born in 1888.
Apparently DAC are now putting their AB’s at the other end of the sticker list and have ditched their codes for the AB’s and now using DMC codes with AB at the end of the DMC code!
@@kathydick8796 The drills were not uniform in size and the two square kits I’ve done had a lot of gapping. I’ve heard they have made changes, so they have hopefully improved!
@@robinbusch8675 I’ve not had that problem myself. Usually people are trying to make things more sticky, not less. I’ll have to ask around and see. Thanks for watching!!
I lived in Ontario, kakabeka falls, Alberta, peace River, Edmonton, wetaskiwin, and Calgary. And I never lost power. As long as you are not at a cabin in the woods, my experience has been really good with Canada's power grid. Really depends on where you are. When you move, ask Nabors if they have a generstor. If everyone does, you will need it. If not your ok. Also ask about spring flooding before you buy something. If all the nebors have subpums, you may not want to buy there. I had my basement flood once it was horrible. Most nabors are willing to share tools, so don't be afraid to ask. Often one person in (small) townsowns a subpump and if needed shares it. The small towns are really good at sharing, I brow the pump, this year, and bring you tomatoes from my garden in the summer. Ect. It's how they survive. And it's really like a close nit family. However saying that, your moving in closer to the cold weather. Make sure you stock up on supplies. We usually kept a month of extra food, ect. Your not likely to lose power. However being snowed in for a few days every winter is to be expected. As a kid, most people had extra underwear, toothbrush, ect in thier backpack. Incase you are at a sleepover and get snowed in. Also people don't wear shoes inside of the house. Make sure you have slippers for home, and clean socks when visiting others homes.
@@dolphinamoon I have all kinds of plans for when we build our forever home - we’d like to be as self-sufficient as possible. We have a small generator already, so we’ll see what we need wherever we end up. Hubby and the youngest are already used to the ‘no shoes in the house’ thing - I’m the one that will have to adjust. Thanks for watching!!

Thanks for the chat...a video on how diamond painting has changed would be great...tfs
I’ll add that to my idea list. Thanks for watching!!

@@The_NZ_Crafty Ooh, good to know! It would be nice to not have to look up the DMC code for their AB codes. Thanks for sharing!
@@DiamondPaintingAnonymousthe only one I know is 141 is actually 5200.
I would like to see how to iron your canvas - I hear a lot of people on video's talking about it but haven't seen anyone showing how to
Wondering what you don't like about the Dreamer Designs square drills.
@@kathydick8796 The drills were not uniform in size and the two square kits I’ve done had a lot of gapping. I’ve heard they have made changes, so they have hopefully improved!
@@DiamondPaintingAnonymous Thanks Daphne. I've ordered a couple of kits because they have an artist I love. Hopefully they have improved!
Do you work on a flat surface or a slanted board?
@@deborahanne9793 I work on a flat table. I tried using a drafting table, but it just didn’t work for me.
question. Have you ever had a kit where the glue is so slick the diamonds just keep sliding around? What did you do?
@@robinbusch8675 I’ve not had that problem myself. Usually people are trying to make things more sticky, not less. I’ll have to ask around and see. Thanks for watching!!
Where did you get the funnel? I love it.

Where do you buy extra containers from ?
@@lauramature7388 I got mine from Amazon.
Are the EW compatible with DaC storage?
@@PamperedWithDiamonds I don’t know - I don’t have the DAC storage, but I don’t think they are the same size. Thanks for watching!!
My cousin lives in Alaska and he doesn't have a generator. He ways the electricity never goes out for more than 4 hours.
@@jollyrogers75 Oh, wow, that’s amazing! I would have assumed that it would go out frequently in all the cold and snow. Thanks for watching!!
