A friend of mine did a lovely Christmas scene last year, it was very beautiful. My granddaughter thought she would buy me a beginner's kit but it was so small, and I couldn't see the pattern properly because I needed to buy new glasses, so gave up.
You're right. I'm finding out that I need to get some decent prescribed eyeglasses. These Dollar Tree models aren't good enough. I also need a light board and a few other accessories I'm finding out.
I think I'd rather play with kittens, too! I got into diamond painting through a friend who game me a kit as a gift. Two weeks ago he took his own life and now I've been given all his diamond projects. Don't know if I'll stick with it or not. Sure do miss him, tho.
I would suggest that you buy an illuminated magnifying lens on an adjustable mounting, with a built in light source. This leaves your hands free, and allows you to work easily. link. https://www.amazon.ca/Magnifying-Ad...fying+glass+with+light&qid=1694089642&sr=8-65You're right.

Thanks Jim. That's a good deal. I just might invest in one of those.
Thatās beautiful work. Very tedious. You must have incredible dexterity. This type of thing must be great for helping to prevent dementia.
Iām with you. My eyes could not do anything like that now. I am in need of a new prescription also. Iām stalling.
I goofed. The link I posted is for the Canadian Amazon website. Please substitute the US website, instead. Not enough coffee in my blood stream at that time, I guess. Mea Culpa. JimB.Thanks Jim. That's a good deal. I just might invest in one of those.
You're right Pepper. Kittens and this craft do not mix.
Well I got myself a magnifying lamp and some accessories. Here's the one I'm working on.
