Diamond Dotz - Who Does These?

[slo]

I love my Diamond Dotz!

My DD(22) got me started on this a month ago and I love it - very relaxing!
I’m almost done with my first one - it’s titled Santa’s Sleigh. I’m going to frame it and put it up every Christmas,

If you do one, what have you made so far and what are you working on now?

Are these the "diamond painting" kits where you stick colored crystals to a template (paint-by-number style)?

I haven't done it myself, but I have a friend who has done several. She's done several landscapes and one of giraffes (she loves giraffes). I have considered trying one, but I'm afraid I'd find it tedious. So. Many. Little. Crystals.

Yes...that’s what it is.
It is very tedious, but in a relaxing way (at least for me it is). You should try one that’s smaller to see if you’d like it, My DD(17) just finished an Eeyore one and the next one she’s doing is a larger Mickey Mouse one. She finds it pretty relaxing too.

I just got one for Christmas!

I started one last year. It's a bunny with lots of brown tones. I actually enjoyed doing it and am not sure why I didn't finish it. Perhaps I will make a point to work on it during the lazy week ahead.

I just finished mine tonight and I love the way it looks. I’ll start my new in a few days - it’s a Christmas tree to go with the one I just completed.

Aw. Nice. Looks like cross stitch. Or 8 bit video game.

I've done a couple at the start of the pandemic to pass the time while I watched tv. I've done a deer, a cat, and a couple mandalas.

 

[NannyBeBe]

They are lovely, but I don't think I could do them. I tried adult coloring and went bananas with all the tiny spaces.

My 15yo DD did a Frozen one before Christmas. To looked tedious but was relaxing for her.

This is my new hobby. Like others, I started it to pass the time as we stayed at home. Started with a diamond dotz Van Gogh Wheat Fields. It was on sale and in stock at JoAnn. Thought I’d try it out and it wasn’t too expensive In case I didn’t like it. I’m hooked now. I’ve ordered several from AliExpress, DAC on sale at JoAnn, several from Amazon. I now have a small stash so I don’t have to worry about running out soon!

finished so far - wheat fields, Winnie the Pooh and friends for my GDD.
working on a Fall scene right now.

It really is relaxing and passes the time. I am also getting through my audio books at the same time.

I had never heard of this until this thread. DGD has done the stick on jewel ones.
I just put one on my birthday list to try. I do like to color, so this is worth trying.
TY

I’ve gotten into paint by number during the pandemic. Have done 4 of them so far since March and got a bunch more for Christmas.

My neighbor did one. It was lovely! Never heard of it before that.

 

[MrsCobraBubbles]

I do them sometimes. I've done a moon one that someone gave me, and then a leopard one that my daughter started and never finished. I also enjoy the adult paint-by-number paintings. That kind of tedious stuff is relaxing.

I've done a few so far, though I'll share some of my favs. I have them hanging on a wall. I have the same style in Alice and Chip & Dale that I haven't completed.



These three are smaller and were requested by my friend.
