I recently found your channel and I just love it!! I too am and avid reader and love DAC Diamond paintings… 2 best anxiety relievers ever lol! You are so much like me and especially with your health concerns as I also share those..you are a beautiful person inside and out and I’m happy you are loving yourself more, it’s hard, I know. You are awesome and I’m happy I found your channel☺️💕
Your diamond paintings are always wonderful Zoe- I'm really sorry to hear you have PCOS- I have very bad endometriosis so I can relate re being in pain. Sending hugs
I love this WIP & chat!! Feels so cozy. I am currently working on making beaded unicorn earrings :). Since I am 6 months behind on this video, I hope things are going well for you on your health journey.
Great tutorial. I will use this for my next big project. By the way you’re using clear or cellophane tape. Masking tape is beige and a little thicker. Just wanted to point that out in case someone is looking for the exact products you have.
I’m currently working on the new steampunk cat daddy painting. It’s huge and lots of beige so I’m going to start Piggy in the Tub, too. I’ve had the same thing with the mix dye lots on a single color where it’s just so slightly off
The longest one I’ve done is Where the Fun never ends from DAC it took me about 4 months to complete My current wip is Rainbow Flower Power I like the wip and chats because it becomes a background sound for me while I work on my wip. Normally I use Netflix or music for that but every once in awhile I like to listen to one of these videos
I’m so sorry about PCOS. I had stomach issues last year, too. Three trips to the ER because it took so long for the medicine to work. They put it as acid reflux. I’m going to look into this.
I wish you the best on your health journey ❤at least now with a diagnosis you work on it… I don’t have the same diagnosis but I have an autoimmune disease and I cut out gluten and dairy and I totally understand! Dairy was harder for me than gluten!! But you’ll get there and believe me you will feel so much better ❤
You don’t sound nutty at all. I enjoy listening to you and this was a great WIP 😊 I’m so glad that therapy had been a positive impact on you and your outlook on your diagnosis of PCOS is really great. ❤
I am working on a deer that I bought at Hobby Lobby. I have not purchased from Diamond Art Club yet. I'll get there soon, though. Hobby Lobby's diamond paintings seem well made.
I have watched your videos for years, I remember some of your heart to heart talks you had in your older and from a small perspective of what you have put online, I can see the growth and healing journey and it's incredibly inspiring! Keep doing you, Zoe!
Sounds like you have a really strong mindset for your health - kudos to you!! I know a few people with PCOS and the trickiest part is there isn’t a “quick fix” that works for all bodies, so it can be frustrating. I hope all your gentle adjustments bring you positive results! 🩷
I have recently given up gluten and a few other foods as well for health reasons. I definitely recommend Milton's craft bakers baked crackers for a snack or to eat at lunch. They are so good! I love your channel and I hope everything continues to go well on this new journey in your life!
Okay so many things! That diamond painting is gorgeous!!! Fellow PCOS person here. Thank you for sharing your story and for being vulnerable with us. Always here if you want to chat! I loved getting to sit down and join you in this. Felt like I was on FaceTime or listening to a podcast! 💕🫶
I adore you! Love the WIP & chats!!!! So sorry about your diagnosis but sounds like you have a plan and gonna kick some butt!!! I also feel the same about the stray cats! I have 6 barn kitties I feed and water daily and have also bought a warming house and water dish they won’t freeze for them! If I could take them all in I would ❤️ hugs darlin! Also DAC is killing my with these new kits and I just started diamond painting 2 weeks ago 🤣
eee welcome to the craft! It's so addicting! 💖 Thank you for the kind comment and encouragement! Love hearing about your care for those kitties -- that's amazing!!
I’ve been loving your diamond painting content so much!! I recently got into the hobby when I got one of the Paint Gem kits for Christmas and it’s been so fun, and your videos have been very helpful. I just ordered the ‘Flowery Delivery’ Kiki’s Delivery Service one from Diamond Art Club and I can’t wait 🥹
I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 17 years old (I’m 48 now) I suffered from infertility for over 20 years. I started a low carb diet due to insulin resistance, lost almost 40lbs and was able to get pregnant naturally at 47 years old. PCOS is a journey for sure but you have a great attitude about it. Love that diamond painting. I don’t have much time for crafts with a 15 month old but would love to try it.
Hi! I'm currently working on a painting with the image of my dog, I received this painting from my friend for Christmas and I am absolutely in love. This is my first painting with square diamonds and I am delighted. this is my first comment on the channel but I must tell you that I love listening to you. Yesterday I watched your video on how to section diamond painting and I really liked it. Washi tape is a game changer for me! Have a great day 🎉 I'll finish watching the video as soon as I get back from the gym, but I have to move a little because I had a few days off and I'm so lazy 😅😅
Wow thank you so much for sharing some of your own journey with me! It's so encouraging to hear from others -- really makes me feel like there's hope. I appreciate you and this comment so much! 💖
Hi Zoe! I loved this W&C and your honesty about your feelings about your PCOS diagnosis. ❣ I finally got diagnosed after almost 6 years of struggling and countless doctor visits, and I connected a lot with what you said about approaching health more holistically instead of basing it largely on weight. I struggled with an eating disorder off and on throughout those 6 years so all the "just lose weight" comments from doctors were triggering for me. I found my diagnosis almost liberating after struggling with weight for most of my life. It was freeing to know that those weight fluctuations weren't me failing, but were due to weight loss/physical activity being the wrong thing my body needed me to focus on. Thankfully I've been self-diagnosing myself and trying different things for the last few years so I'm managing it well but it's so sad that PCOS seems to be so common but that it's also so hard to get diagnosed because of weight bias. Fighting so hard to be heard when you know your own body better than anyone is exhausting. So thank you for being so open and real about your feelings; you put to words a lot of things I'd been feeling but hadn't ever said. I love your WIP & chats - please keep doing them! PS: as a fellow Ivy Dolamore girlie, I worked on Warm Witch during this video 🧙♀
I am currently working on a diamond painting of two swans. It completely confuses me that ppl think -12 is cold bc like it’s been like -39 where I life for like 3 days now, usually it’s like -20. Sorry if that sounds mean not trying to be😊
Anyone else get twitchy looking at the coffee mug sitting on the project?😳

We have scars inside and out to show the battle we been in and how is shows the journey and story we went through to get where we are at today. ❤

Loved this! Happy to hear you’re taking care of yourself and seemingly ENJOYING it. That’s all we can hope for in trying times. ❤
I really enjoyed your WiP & chat. You opening up about health and all was nice to hear others and how they cope. I appreciate it
aah i am a bit late but, YAY another wip and chat!! i love these xDD❤😊
I was diagnosed with autism at 21 currently 27 so i understand when you said that the diagnosis made sense it was the same for me 😊
So happy you were able to get that diagnosis, my friend! I know how important and impactful that can be! 💖💖

Really enjoyed this WIP & chat. Wishing you the best with your journey. Looking forward to your unboxing videos. I’m a confetti girl
Really enjoyed it! Looked up only a couple of times. 💎💞
I have recently given up gluten and a few other foods as well for health reasons. I definitely recommend Milton's craft bakers baked crackers for a snack or to eat at lunch. They are so good! I love your channel and I hope everything continues to go well on this new journey in your life!
Make more of these please
