Absolutely it’s important to take frequent breaks from repetitive activities. I had severe RSI that took years to recover from and even now I do have problems with the same side. Listen to your bodies please. Trust me this condition is very hard to manage successfully.

I used to do diamond painting, and when I saw you pull that plastic sheet off completely, I swear I saw it in slow motion. I will say that the company you got it from must be super good quality, because after a few days of doing a painting, that sticky backing was starting to dry up on me. I basically live in my truck, and I just didn't have the ability to store my finished paintings or those in progress without damaging them, so I had to move on from them. But I did like doing them. Oh, and you are just like the rest of us, because we all get a wrong color going in the wrong location at some point, and with the size of that thing, your average for mishap went up exponentially.

It was a challange that she set for herself. It doesn't mean you have to complete a piece of art or any project in the same time frame. I enjoy watching the genuine creation of these pieces. I've done large dimond paintings, and these struggles are real. So many creaters show the begining and the end product and cut out the middle. Making it seem like it's quick, simple, and painless, and that you can't mess it up, as they don't show that.

We need more diamond painting videos like this!! This is one of my favorite videos and I keep watching it over and over and over again

Stuck diamonds are more common with square shaped ones. If you come across a lot of them than another good method is to put them into a plastic container with screw top lid, like one from pills or something similar, drip in few pennies or other small coins and shake them vigorously for 10-20 seconds.

Diamond art club is my all time favorite company to purchase from! I’m disabled and don’t work so diamond painting has really helped me fill my time with something that not only makes me happy but also relaxes me and helps with my anxiety tremendously! A few tips for anyone interested in this hobbie, 1 don’t take all of the plastic off unless you’re planing and changing it to release papers, 2 setting a hard deadline is not necessary for the most part…. All it usually does is force you to overwork on the kit and lead to a burnout and takes away the relaxing part of it, 3 if you find that the pens that come with the kit end up hurting your hands you can buy thicker pens and that really helps! Enjoy your diamond painting! ❤️

Congratulations on finishing it, I can't wait to see your next huge project.

I feel so seen and understood with turning fun hobbies into a tortuous challenge! I just started my first cross stitch and bought one that was much larger than I'd considered. I'm one month in and have barely made a dent. I worked for 3 days straight through the day and night because I thought I'd be able to finish it in a week. I'm a month in tomorrow, and not even a quarter way through. I love not feeling alone in my obsession with my craft, so thank you!

Congrats on completing your picture. I type all day at work so find it hard to do any painting of drawing at night. Padding on the desk may be a great option for me as well. This was an unexpected but great part of the video💕💕. Thank you for including this.

I LOVED this video. Not only was it educational (I just ordered an arm rest from Amazon) but your oops moments I actually related to. You are so much much to watch. Great video!

I was so happy to see Dr Mike in this and for his wonderful advice! Also, I completed my Starry Night diamond art and was excited and sad when it was done

I recently got into diamond art. Loving it. One trick I find works for me is doing one section at a time. I peel the backing off only so many columns at a time...say 5..and it works for me and I don't get overwhelmed. Beautiful piece! Love your enthusiasm

That is beautiful, I have tried diamond painting but I can honestly say it is not for me but I love seeing what other people create from these kits

Omg I love this so much! I got into diamond painting in 2020 because of the pandemic and fell in love with it! It's super relaxing, but I've never done a project that big.

Bravo! I'm so glad you connected with Dr Mike and got some good advice only for yourself but for the rest of us. I'm glad you were able to keep this in an enjoyable place for yourself. Challenges can be fun but never at one's detriment. Enjoy your finished work. Blessings

It's super impressive what you accomplished in a short amount of time. I absolutely love DAC kits! Diamond Painting was my life in 2022. It got me through 12 months of breast cancer treatment. Every day I'd work on a bit and I felt productive even though I was resting. I also found it to be one of the best hobbies to do while my physical condition was weak. It didn't take too much out of me and I didn't have to think too hard. It's become one of my most favourite hobbies of anything I've done! Thanks for a great video.

I’ve been doing some diamond art for the last week, it’s keeping me busy while I’m dealing with morning sickness. Thank you for the helpful tips, I’ll definitely be investing in a support for my left arm 😊

I had a diamond art project and my canvas was like less than a quart of that one and it took me 1 entire month to complete. You are faster than I am sarah❤

Hurray! It was great to see Dr. Mike and hear his tips. Also as a fellow chronic migraine sufferer, who also uses a screen for her work a lot, I totally related to that part.

Sarah, I love 💕 your videos and am very exited whenever you post a new one. So I’d like to ask for you to please 🙏 keep making more!

As a diamond painting veteran, I suggest taking your time with your next ones (if you plan to do more). Diamond painting is really a very relaxing marathon, not a dash. It is a hobby for me and work on it sporadically to avoid burnout or physical pain. I also suggest getting a wide variety of pen widths to avoid "writer's cramp" and having water nearby to drink at all times. Your painting turned out beautifully! I've never tried doing one quite that big but it's on my diamond painter's bucket list!

please make more content I just got into diamond art and went straight to your channel cos I knew you'd have something about it and now I've watched this video like a million times

Just imagine Sarah, you have double those diamonds in subscribers! Diamond painting is very addictive to finish. I don’t think I’ve ever seen one person complete a massive piece like that by themselves, usually it be like 3 or 4 people work something of that scale.😮 Props to you for sticking it out!!

I love ur videos Sarah and u never fail to make me smile

I fell back asleep listening to your videos early this morning and woke up to a new one!! Love this!

Beautiful. I love Diamond art tbh and what I do is section the piece and fill the tiny sections just going through each colour and then starting again. It worked easier for me at least

I did a 3 meter one - I don't think I ever timed how long I did it for or how many diamonds it was but I got it just before Christmas and was done before the summer holidays were over. So I think it took 4ish weeks and i didn't have a multi tool so it was one by one and it was predominantly a single colour which was a bit demotivating.

I love diamond painting! The best thing I can recommend is to buy a resin diamond painting pen. They are the same width as an Ohuhu marker and I find they put way less stress on my hand and wrist! Also getting a light pad to put under the canvas will help cut back on eye strain!

The dedication wow just 😲 Great points made by the Doctor too.

Wow! Such beautiful results - what an endeavor. Good tips too. Thank you!

I'm working on a diamond art painting from Diamond Art Club in 26 x 26 segments and it really helps because I can only work on it during the week when my husband is out driving on the road. I use a card table to work on it with a light that is plugged into the computer. I find it really helps with being able to see the work without straining my eyes.

It's gorgeous!! I just started this art and am loving it!

So beautiful! Diamond painting is my favorite thing

I like how you went to talk to a doctor, not only would be difficult to have a job and a family but you also have to take care of yourself! I want to do one of this too to hang on my wall.

After a project like that you need like a moth of vacation 🥴😂😂 it's so satisfying to watch, but I could never 😂 thank you for sharing the pleasure of seeing it come together with us 🙌

this is a great vid! i've never done diamond painting before but i have a good tip: when you remove the plastic, use a retractable utility knife to cut off a square so you can complete them in squared sections, it looks easier from what I've seen

I have been Diamond Painting for 3 years and DAC quickly became my favorite place to purchase my kits for so many reasons. My motto is the bigger the better because I feel like I am getting a bigger bang for my buck. It can take me 7 months or so to complete a large kit and I love that because these are not cheap kits. One way that I make sure I am getting plenty of movement is to diamond paint on laundry days. My crafty space is upstairs and my laundry room is downstairs. The wash / dry cycle spaced just right to force breaks when diamond painting. I am much more comfortable when playing when I take the proper wiggle breaks.

I’m doing one now that is 144000 drills, my biggest so far and and I am so glad I’m almost done. I’m always listening to an audiobook, and it’s so nice being able to read during the painting. Only 6 sections left (I always make 10x10 cm sections to break it up). Using another dill pen can help immensely in pain in hands. I personally never use the pens that come with it, as it hurts my hands to much. And switching back and forth placing drills with tweezers instead of the pen helps loads. And bigger drills trays save a lot if time if you planning on doing more Diamond paintings 😊

OMG it's amazing!! Good job! 🤗 I hope you do more!! Thanks for sharing! 🤗💖

that might be true on cheaper lower quality kits but on a good quality kit there's no need. diamond art club actually warns against sealing your finished kit (iirc it actually voids the warranty if you do). if you're not displaying it i recommend either putting it in a portfolio or rolling it up (ALWAYS diamonds facing outwards so they don't squish in on each other and pop off) and putting it back in the box!! i've never had a problem with DAC drills falling off a finished canvas when stored properly ^^

Wow its looking so great, great job done!

I love diamond painting, and diamond art club! It takes me a long time to finish one though! I've also done the wrong colour on more than one occasion!

When I diamond paint, I always listen to something, whether it be music or an audio book! It always helps me focus also it looks so good ❤❤ Edit: My favourite thing to use when I diamond paint is a large tray and multiplacers (multitools)

When you spill you beads the easiest way to pick them up is with a damp finger...I lick mine and just tap on the spill they attach and you can just brush them off into the tray

Something that helps me with 5d diamond painting is to invest with a light board under the painting. It helps with reducing the strain on my eyes, and i bought through “ali express” large resin like pens that are curvy and feels better when you’re holding it and it comes with changing drilled heads with different sizes so you can pick as much as 10 diamonds at once.

What a nice surprise to see Doctor Mike in the video! I think you’re crazy to do such a big project, amazing!

I love diamond painting and have completed 18 kits so far; many of them are quite large. If you decide to keep diamond painting an easel may help and using putty in a multiplacer instead of wax will help tremendously. In my opinion Diamond Art Club has some of the best kits and selection out there. You did a fantastic job on your first kit!

I have made 2 diamond painting projects and I really enjoy it. The hard part is finding the time to dedicate to it.

Just finished a 110K one from DIamond Art Club called Mountain Castle. It's so gorgeous. I love the big ones myself and do them over several months. I love this one of Venice. Might have to add it to my collection. For folks that want to try this out, something I would suggest is a light pad. You put it underneath the painting and it helps illuminate the little symbols a lot. My eyes are kinda shot already so it really helps. I had the space so I bought a drafting desk. These can be angled so you are on a slant so that you don't have to bend over as much. I adore diamond painting and i hope you get to do more of it Sarah but at a slower pace :-D Thanks for a great vid!
