It’s always nice listening to you. Glad you’re doing well. Catch you on the next one. Thanks!🖌️🖼️👩🎨
I don’t have it very often, but I am Team 🍍on 🍕!
I can’t wait to see the finished museum mini sets. Perfect for SWTM! 🎨🖌️🖼️
Good morning I hope you feel better take a nap please lol I stopped using DIY about nine months ago or so I wanted a kit from them and it was subpar at best. I have used her when I started diamond painting, 4+ years ago and her rendering her diamonds, her packaging by hand, I still have one left, was just outstanding, so thank you for trying to keep us updated. I too hope that they are OK. They have two small children to take care of and I hope that they take care of the people who put in orders. Thanks for being you.
Katie, sorry to hear you are unwell. Been struggling with asthma & chest infection myself. For air quality/bushfire air (Victoria Australia, lots of bushfires here) block up any vents your house has to outside (can get non-permanent vent covers, check your exhaust fans that they don’t let air back inside when it’s not taking air out. A good quality air purifier is so worthwhile, make sure it has hepa filters and is big enough for the room. 💕
I don't know if you ever tried, but instead of cutting up my dryer sheet, I put my drills in a closable tray with the sheet between the drills and the lid. (Closed within the tray.) Then shake. Pour out of the tray and it is easier to maneuver than within the plastic bags.
❤What a great idea! Thanks!!!❤
🎨 🖌️ I’m learning so much from your videos! Thanks for the content! 😊
I’m very new to diamond painting. Like only just started over the weekend and I definitely ordered some paintings from Amazon to just try and can’t wait to get better quality ones that I can hang up!
Super funny, I used to be the General Manager for the Donatos In Milford, we lived in Cincinnati for YEARS before we moved to Ft Knox. That Hawaiian pizza is the reason I love Pineapple on Pizza. Im sure you have also had La Rosas as well. I miss that big time. That and skyline chili.
Kitted up Eiffel Night from DAC while hanging today. So many 3371 diamonds! 🎨
I appreciate you so much. Thanks for continuing to be transparent and sharing with us. You’re such a leader in this community. 🎨 🖼️
🎨 I love the little art pics I’m gonna have to try them out
Hi Katie!! Hope you have a great week! 🎨🖌🖼🩷
P.S. YES to pineapple on pizza!!! 🍍🍕
We just had Donatos Hawaiian pizza on the weekend. It’s my daughter’s favorite.🎨🖌️
🎨🎨 Thanks for a great video!
🎨 Thanks!
Hi Katie! My husband is from Ohio and we have Donato's when we go to see my in-laws. I have not tried their Hawaiian pizza, but will make sure I do the next time we visit. 🖌🎨
🖌 Very excited to see Outside the sweetshop finished!
And thanks for a kit up and chat, kit ups tend to be my favorite videos ✨️
Hawaiian pizza is a must!
🎨 Hearing about your boys is so sweet and really makes my heart happy (and encouraged!) Thanks for sharing.
The strike is crazy and I hope there is a resolution soon for the writers & actors. There’s an episode of Black Mirror we just watched called “Joan is Awful” that totally nails the same subject. And it is very scary.
Hope you feel better soon! 🤞🏻❤️
Hello Katie. Love your videos.
Hope u get better, sucks went a cold hangs on forever, and it's always sad when a business go out of business, because I just got diamond painting fever in March of this year, and I was pumped to try diy Moon shop😢
Yes I am a also a proud Hawaiian pizza lover, as well
The paint gem mini sets are great. Love the pen and storage from them. 🎨🖌️
Hi there Katie, first…..don’t worry about us listeners and your being sick. I have really come to feel you are a good friend and your health is more important than anything. I tune in every week and watch all your videos. You are amazing and always entertain us and share such great info. As usual this PG kit videos are great. I just hope you’re on the mend. I really wish I could join your Patreon, but being on such a fixed income and living in California I’m sure you understand. I was hoping southern Ca was better than here up in east Bay Area. We reached 109 today…ughhh… but please get better soon. And I would tune in for any content you put out. Can’t wait for seethe “sweet shoppe” review. Girl you deserve a gold medal for that. And I’m a Hawaiian pizza 🍕 fan too. Loved hearing how the boys are enjoying their Summer. Thanks again. Linda E.
Hi Katie! I hope you will feel better soon. Great video!🥰🥰
Hope you get better!! So happy the kids are doing great!! Thanks for the education on the AI stuff and the strike. 🖼🎨
👩🏻🎨Hi Katie! Loved your wip and chat! Hope you feel better soon! Trying to catch up. So happy to hear your boys are doing great!! Sad that DIY is closing, because i never got around to ordering one of the Victor Nizovts paintings. Hope they find a way to refund the orders made. Have a great week! 😘
I HATE kitting down because I do save my drills (for the moment) and a lot of it is because I fight to get baggies open to pour them into. Your tip on how to open those ziplock baggies will be a game changer.
Also, I posted in the VIP group with a picture of a DP and the perfect washi tape I found for it. I had several people ask me how and what washi tape is used for. I was so glad to have your video to link for them. That’s where I learned to section my canvas from and I was delighted to get to share the information. 🎨👩🎨
I glad i found you. I get to live my diamond art dreams through you since i can't afford the name brand canvases but God id love to be able to. Keep making videos so i can see all the goodies!
👨🎨🎨 Thank you for sharing information regarding DIYMoonShop 💖💎
Have never ordered from this particular shop. But orders made and paid for should absolutely be honored or they should not have taken the order in the first place. Especially if there was any doubt at all about fulfilling it. Feel for those customers who may lose their money.
Hope you feel better soon 😊
Yes pineapple does go on pizza 100%, I also have the same opinion regarding AI I’m not a fan in pretty much all forms… So therefore I do not financially support this either… the love kit up and chats! Glad ur starting to get better hope u have a great week!
🎨🖼🖌
Love Hawaiian pizza. In Australia it’s ham, pineapple & cheese ❤
🎨 Hey Katie! Love those little kits! But I won't be sharing any pineapple pizza! 😂
🖌Hope you feel better soon!
Hi! I love your videos. 💜
So on Team Pineapple on Pizza!!!!!! 🍕🎨
🎨 thanks for the lovely video! I completed several PaintGem sets, they are great for travel. Hope your bronchitis goes away fast. ❤️from🇨🇦
Ham and pineapple pizza has always been my favourite! I’m definitely team pineapple on pizza. Fun fact…Hawaiian pizza was first made in Canada! So all the pineapple haters have Canada to thank 😂 PS I love the kitting up wip and chats. Thanks so much! 🎨
I’ve never tried pineapple on pizza 🍕 🍍 and hearing you rave about it makes me think I’ve been missing out. I think it’ll be interesting to see what response you get back from diymoon shop about what’s happening. I was going to place an order just before all of the changes started happening to their website and I’m so glad now that I didn’t if other customers are having so much trouble with them. Glad you’re on the mend and loved seeing the paint gem mini set being worked on 😁
🎨
Great video!! I also experience a lot of medical discrimination and prejudice for being overweight, and YES, you do have to advocate for your medical needs firmly and politely or the consequences can be dire. 😕. Pineapple on pizza definitely! 😁❤️👍🏻🖍️
Hey friend! Sorry your not feeling 100%. Loved the “Legally Blonde” reference 😂. Have a great week…❤🖼️

Hi Katie!!
What, I will have to make this pizza at home. Or maybe I can order it from my favorite pizza place. Thanks for sharing this ❤
🖌🖌
Hawaiian Pizza is great, there was a place in New Hampshire that makes it with ham pineapple and maraschino cherries was a sweet pizza but not overpoweringly so.
Hi Katie, yes to Pineapple and Canadian bacon on Pizza. Had for the first time in 1989, when I was visiting Maui. Had an EggMcMuffin for the first time when I visited my cousins in Nova Scotia in the summer of 1987. My cousin-in-law Margie, made for breakfast English Muffin will Canadian Bacon, cheese, and hashbrowns. For lunch we had Lobster sandwiches. Think Tuna sandwiches, but with Lobster.
Mmm, pineapple on pizza. 💜💜💜 What I really love these days is curry pizza, though. There's a local place that uses curry sauces instead of marinara, naan style crust and customizable spicy toppings. It's amazing. 🎨
🖌 loved your discussion about AI . I also love bacon and pineapple pizza.
Hi Katie! I know exactly what you mean about AI taking over things. I used to post some art on Deviant Art back in the early 2000's. I always disabled right click because I didn't want anyone to steal my stuff, I added the DA watermark as well, and only uploaded at 72 dpi for resolution. Other artists should do the same if they have a Deviant Art or similar. 🎨
TEAM PINEAPPLE!!!🍍🍍🍍🍍🍍🍍🍍
Legally Blonde!! I just preordered "Rainbow Trains" from Diamond Art Studio UK. I picked it because I much prefer rounds drills, and it was the only option from that artist. The description didn't say the color count, so I'm a little nervous! All of that artist's work is gorgeous! You've inspired me to try a high-color kit, as yours is turning out beautifully! I strongly believe that everything belongs on a pizza, because PIZZA!!🍕🍕
🎨🖌
Heia 🤗 I am Pineapple ALL the way!!!🍍 I will have "a ton" on my pizza, I love it🍍🍍 Thanks for another great video and enjoy the Museum Edition 🎨🖌️🖼️ Best wishes from Norway 🤗🤗🤗
I really enjoyed this video and I am glad you are on the mend… bronchitis is no joke… the chlorine probably didn’t help at all when you went swimming but I’m glad you had fun with family. I agree, so sad and rather abrupt of Diymoonshop’s closure. Still find if in shock. Now, you know I hold you near and dear my friend but I will have to agree with disagree with you about the pizza 😂😂😂. So when I was growing up 80’s and early 90’s, that wasn’t even a thing in New York! At least where I lived. Bryant and I go back and forth on it. He loves Hawaiian pizza,,, with ranch too. I literally can not! Blasphemy!! ❤❤❤ hope you have a great week
Hope your cough gets better soon. Regarding pineapple on pizza, it’s my favourite topping. 🍍🖼️🎨
🖌️
🖌
Pineapple on pizza is totally good Katie lol. Anyways have a great week!!🎨🖌️🖼️
See if you can get a couple of inhalers. They help me when I have bad bronchitis.
The Red Robins in my area (Washington/Oregon) have Donatos pizza. Not sure how it compares but it’s worth looking into. ☺️🎨
🖼️🎨
Totally to pineapple on pizza!
🎨🖼🖌
I live in Ohio and would agree Donatos makes an awesome hawaiian pizza. 🎨 🖼
🖼️
I'm an Ohio gal and yes to Donoto's pizza. Enjoy your videos🎨
🖌️🎨
❤ 🎨
I used that paint gem container set. While it’s cute I think would be better with at least full size containers. Diymoonshop - I don’t understand the lack of communication. That’s a big pet peeve thing of mine. It’s disrespectful and sneaky. Especially that they didn’t even keep their affiliates or probably even the artists - some I saw posting i know had art with them and they didn’t even know what was going on. I hope some of their artists are picked up by DAC or others!
Yea unfortunately us artists didn't get informed either, we knew some things were going on from a call we had but this was rather shocking.
I am definitely on team pineapple on pizza! It’s one of my favorites, but no one else in my house will eat it so I don’t get it nearly enough 😢.
🖌️I’ve never had pineapple pizza before but I’m a vegetarian so I probably won’t be eating any but it sounds delicious! Great video! I hope you feel better soon 😊
Yes we have a air quality alert for where i live right now all week...its awful 😞
I loveeee Hawaiian pizza! It's so good. We've been closely following the strikes. I'm trying to get into the writing field and I'm terrified that I wasted my time in school with everyone pushing to use AI instead of real people.
🎨🖌️
How do you remove the stickers from the jars when you are finished?
I had a feeling you were going to start with girl with the pearl earring! 😀 I think PaintGem is doing square drills because of the size. I don't think the pieces would render well that small and round. That to say they could do larger pieces round and still be snack size. 🍍🎨🖌🖍🖊🖋
🎨🎨👨🎨👨🎨🖌️
Feel better Katie!!! Btw Pineapple Pizza is my favorite pizza! There I said it haha! 🎨🖼️🧑🏼🎨👩🏻❤️💋👨🏻
Hi Katie, thank you for another wonderful WIP and chat. I love Hawaiian pizza but since I had Covid in 2021 my taste and smell have not been the same and I can’t eat pineapple anymore 😭 🖌️🎨🖼️
🎨👩🏽🎨🖌️🖼️
🎨
Yes to pineapple on almost anything including pizza.
Medical vas lighting is a real thing especially with women, I had my ob/gyn's nurse practitioner, who was a woman tell me that debilitating period pain (like missing 3 days of work every month) was "just part of being a woman" and to just deal with it. These days they just blame anything and everything on being fat and being old or accuse me of being "hysterical" 😒😑 It got so bad that I had to start insisting that my husband be allowed to accompany me into Dr appts, when they started in on their bs, he would let them know I wasn't exaggerating, low and behold when it came from him it was taken seriously, when they had always just brushed me off previously. Still searching for a decent primary doctor who actually listens, it's harder when you're rural like we are, there is a limited number of doctors, period, that aren't an hour+ drive away. If you feel dismissed always seek another opinion.
That got long, sorry
Has anyone who ordered from DAC had their package marked as delivered, but not received it? I filed a claim with UPS, but I was curious what the timeline looked like to hopefully get my diamond paintings? I’m just ready to get started on them!
😀👍
Team pineapple!
Thanks for the Wip & Chat! Pineapple on pizza! Yes! And ice cream 😅
About A.I. I’ve been watching Elon Musk talk about it. He is very concerned about it having no regulations. He also talks about how long regulations take once they decide it is warranted! It’s crazy because the first interview I saw was months ago, and all of a sudden it’s every where! Very scary. Black Mirror on Netflix has an episode called “Joan Is Ugly” that Selma Hayek and Annie Murphy are in that is exactly about A.I. using celebrity’s images and voices to make entertainment. Honestly it feels like we will never know what is real and what is not. 😢
👨🎨🖌️🖼️🎨
🖌🎨💅
🎨 Absolute yes to pineapple on pizza, but I'm the only one in my house that thinks so 🤷♀️more for MEEEE! Hear me out, though: sausage and sauerkraut!😋
👋
Ah yes the 4 horseman of a Katie WIP and Chat:
1. Getting sick or recovering from an illness
2. Apologizing for having an opinion you’re 100% allowed to have (I’m team pineapple btw)
3. An adorable story about one of your kiddos
4. diamond painting lol

I'm very confused as to what happened to diymoonshop, cause everything was made to order so they didn't have to take in a bunch of stock they weren't able to sell 😅 I also feel when they changed shipping methods the quality went down... I do hope they pull through, but I do wish they would have asked for help from the community ❤
I really agree. There were multiple times that I and other affiliates and customers reached out to them asking for updates, how we could help, offering feedback, etc. But they honestly just weren't receptive. It's disappointing all around. Of course I wish them all the best and hope they're able to make things right with the people who placed orders that they can't fulfill or refund.
Hi Katie, For some reason I am unable to pull up my emojies. 🎉 I only have a hea❤,😂,😢,😮,😅,😊. That is it. I probably could figure out what happened, but I am terrified I will lose everything on my phone. This is what happens when you learn the keypunch method ( 1970s) and refuse to learn anything more. Time to take classes at Cerritos College or Downey Adult school.
When I was growing up on Lynwood back in the 60s, we had smog days. Trust me the air is way better than then. Problem is the government is giving into the companies which caused poor air quality.
I am surprised your doctor didn't give you cough syrup with Codeine. I get Bronchitis every five years. Onetime my sister and I were picking my parents up st LAX. For some reason I parked in the wrong area of One World. My sister and I had to walk around to the American Airlines Terminal. My the time we got there, I could not breath. I ended up having to take a medical leave of three weeks. Two for Bronchitis and one for stress.
Did you know the painting of the Girl with the Pearl, that the Pearl was added layer. The painting the Scream us not of a person going insane, but rather reacting to the eruption of Karakatoa in 1883. The sound was so loud my Great Grandma in Truro, Nova Scotia heard the eruption. This was over 10,000 miles.
I am still working on Cafe Terrance at Night by Van Gagh. I know I will not finish in time. But, I will do my best. August is going to be my month to complete all the canvases I have not finished. September I am going to Maui. I thought about bringing a PaintGem, but there is more turrablance(sp) over the Pacific. Plus. El Nino is here.
Have a wonderful week.
I agree with you on the AI mess that’s happening right now.
Unfortunately it’s not just the use of AI being regulated, but also properly enforced it. This is mostly because the government can make any new laws about anything, but if they don’t enforce it or just give out warnings, then those laws existing, is a bit pointless. 🎨 🖌️
🖼🎨🖌🖍 Allergic to pineapple, and had a severe reaction to a different ingredient in a recent pizza, so currently my status with pizza is separated pending divorce 😂
