Diamond Dot Paintings/Pictures

Diamond Dot Paintings/Pictures

Building on the idea of paint-by-numbers and embroidery patterns, Diamond Dots consume one's energy and can be calming. You have little plastic dots and an adhesive canvas, with a tool and wax for application to the corresponding colours and patterns on the canvas. I find them great for my anxious, triggered days as it gives me a great distraction. I can lose hours diamond-dotting! There is a saying that the biggest lie a crafter tells themselves is "just one more section, then I'll...." Oops!

I wonder, is anyone else into this? Or colouring in etc. and do they find it helpful?

(Admin, feel free to transfer this post to a more appropriate area if needed... still navigating this place and feeling a little overwhelmed by it)
