My New Hobby! Diamond Art!

*This My New Hobby! Diamond Art! post contains affiliate links

I had been curious about diamond art painting ever since the first time I saw them. They were pricey in the store, and since I didn’t need another hobby, I passed them by. Then I saw these small kits at Walmart. I kept my eye on them, and then I saw them in the clearance aisle! $1. per kit. Score! lol

I fell in love with diamond art right away. lol I’ve found it to be not only fun, but relaxing, too. Even if I do get comments from everyone else that they wouldn’t have the patience for it. lol I had bought 4 kits, and gave one to my daughter. She loved it, too!

I still didn’t want to pay a lot for them, though. So I checked Amazon. lol I found this very cute scarecrow diamond art painting for $3.99! Now that’s more like it! I used this frame from Amazon that is inexpensive as well (It’s out of stock right now.). I actually think it would look better in a frame with a wider edge to it. I’ll keep my eye out for a frugal (aka cheap lol) one.

I was searching for framing how to’s, and ended up on YouTube. Some people cut the pictures right to the edge of the diamonds. I opted to follow the folding directions, instead of cutting. So framing was very easy, fold, tape, insert into frame.
