Review on DIY 5D Diamond Painting Kit - Lion Animal Resin Cross Stitch - Crystals Embroidery - Home Decor Craft by Michelle Langley

This was my first diamond painting and it was so much fun! I'm literally obsessed! Exactly what I saw and expected in the pictures. Delivered quickly with Prime. It is technically only called partial drilling because the black outer part does not contain any diamonds. (Photos attached) I think it's close enough to a full workout and wasn't dissatisfied. (If you are looking for full drill or part drill when purchasing I suggest looking at all the pictures and customer photos as you can see how many color coded pictures and where the diamonds will be placed.) This set came with resin round diamonds (Some are square), and there is more than enough to explain diamonds that have fallen out or have deteriorated or are irregularly shaped. It also came with a pick tool, a little wax to add to the pick tool which worked great and lasts a long time, a diamond tray to hold the diamonds open and easier to pick up, empty small ziplock pouches (for storage) , Resin colored diamonds divided into sections and coded by DMC color number and canvas. (I suggest checking that you have all the colors before you start.) The size given is 25 x 30 cm, including extra canvas for the frame. The actual diamond painting piece is approximately 19cm x 24cm which again I didn't mind as it was mostly diamonds. My only criticism would be the number of small zipped pockets and their quality. You only sent 4 extra storage bags, and you need to paint 14 colors, which is not enough. Also the quality of the bags is cheap and 1 ripped the same. So you can prepare bags or small boxes for storing beads etc. This set does not include tweezers. Some kits come with both a grabbing tool and tweezers, but some kits say they come with either a grabbing tool or tweezers. Finally delivery. It was folded and flat which did not affect the canvas, but it had some creases that were not difficult to smooth out and did not affect how the diamonds adhered to the canvas or the final product. I just expected a tube or box to make the canvas a little more presentable. Loved this DIY diamond painting kit! It's relaxing, easy, and an instant pleasure! I definitely recommend and have ordered more. This is a great first painting to start with as you are only working with 14 colors which is not too difficult or too many.
