Hey @ENKELI
They are just kits from Bunnings! They tell you where to put the mosaics. It’s actually quite easy. You can easily do it. I recommend you get one to just try.

I got the resin kits from spotlight and the mosaics from Bunnings @PeppyPatti. I have my own resin, molds and colours now so I’m trying different things.

@Captain24 oh wow, I didn't realise the kits were available at Funnings! (that's what a few of us here in Sane-land call Bunnings 😁) Thanks so much for letting me know 😍
Once I get through some more of my diamond paintings (I have about 100 ready to do) and the 3 latch hook kits waiting for me I will definitely look into the mosaic kits.
I am a typical person with bipolar (I have the less intense version, BPD2) and when manic I will buy things I don't need and can't afford so I have heaps of craft things I want to finish before getting in to something else.
Please share your creations when you can, I truly love seeing them.

@PeppyPatti @Captain24 @Chasingsunsets @MissGremlin @AuntGlow here's the latest diamond painting. The next one is a little bigger and almost a full drill (like the ones @Captain24 has done) of a peacock. I thought of you my Pepster when I chose it ❤️

I’m feeling angry at myself so frustrating @PeppyPatti . I felt better after crying and yelling about email not working.
