Its 20x16 and more sparkly than camera shows.
Very relaxing.

There are a number of kits at the big A.
Its addicting for me.

(556 posts)Is this done with the small colorful beads, and glued to a numbered spot? I think my daughter likes to do these. Takes a bit of time, but very nice hobby

(21,721 posts)Two pictures and one set of bookmarks done already. Really helps with the stress before this election, and my ADHD loves it. Don't know what I'm going to do with them when done, but I'll figure that out later.
Are you still doing diamond art? What themes are a favorite?

I love the greeting cards. When people get one they know its special.
Especially the thank you cards.
I also like key chains. Fast and as small stocking stuffers or purse charms. Friends say they love them. Especially the mándelas. )( I think thats what they are called) and always a bit different than any other gift.
When you do it awhile, long projects like the above lose their charm.
Smaller, more immediate gratification. 😊
