@sumudu Thanks Sumudu. This is just another way I’ve found to help with anxiety. You could seriously lose yourself while doing these paintings, in a good way. If you’re interested I can give you some decent places to go and get some. This castle I actually got from eBay for about $10. But the bigger the painting the more detail that is shown overall and more expense.
@matigo and it’s only just dawned on me why lol … I’m probably the only one here not into Star Wars.

@matigo I’m fully stocked on the ? but not sure about the ☕ . I’m running out of my salted caramel latte but I think there’s a hazelnut one I haven’t cracked open yet. I must investigate.
So here is the work in progress on my rainbow castle. Not sure you can see the sparkle effect but you get the basics at least. 2/3 complete with 7 colours to go.
I got my light box today and it’s seriously effective. I even spotted a couple of places I’d missed the first time. I think I may need some kind of magnifier at some stage but we’ll see.
@matigo hehe … I got part of one of my diamond painting orders the other day but I’m waiting on my light box to arrive before I start it. Suppose I could keep going with the castle that’s currently in progress.
I’m really hoping tomorrow will be a day of calm. There are so many things making me anxious at the moment.
Received part of my latest diamond painting order today. It’s a bit bigger than the current paintings I have - 40x60cm with square drills. First time using square drills so this could prove interesting. They say using tweezers is better on squares than the normal drill pen. I’ve got one more to come and I’m eyeing off many more. Even found a 5 piece Zelda one.
@matigo I need to do that! But alas, no. Just English to French and Italian at the moment. My uncle’s coworker is studying French and we were looking at funny stuff to say.
So what happens when there’s nothing to watch on tv? Have fun with google translate of course ….
I’ve been researching different storage solutions for my round beads for diamond paintings. One that will work with my current budget (while I’m not working) and one that will be a more permanent solution once I find work and have more money to spend. Selling stuff on eBay has given my hobby spending a little bit of a boost, which is nice.
