I finally finished up my first diamond art piece. I get the appeal 😄 it was so enjoyable. The numerous stiff necks were so worth it, I advise anyone who wishes to try this hobby to buy themselves a set of boxes for the spare diamonds so that you can go back and forth as you complete different sections of the image. I have a tattoo of a lotus as well so when I saw this artwork I instantly connected with it. I love the resilience of such a beautiful flower, to come from mud and emerge radiant and calm above it. 🪷
