hey:) i’m not a very creative person at all, i’ve always been so bad at art - i can’t even draw stick people lol but towards the end of last year i got into diamond art and found it to be a really helpful way to distract my brain so im going to use this as a place to share them to give them a bit more purpose i guess? enjoyyyy♡

    @struggling0_0 your gonk diamond painting is amazing. I have tried diamond painting in the past but I found it so hard trying to focus for long periods of time, it's very good for distracting yourself though. I did a diamond painting of a dragon, I also got a dino to finish alongside some cats.

    @Amy22 thank you!! as much as it is a really good distraction, i do very much agree that it is super hard to stay focused for a long period of time - i also accidentally spill the little tray of diamonds so many times too and then i give up because im too annoyed lol

    that’s so cool!! i have little cat one to do too♡

Im more of a colouring in person and crochet and knitting lol. I used to draw and its something I might get back into.
