I just realized that I forgot to post the 16×20 Halloween diamond paintings from Make Market that I made.
So the first one is the Castle and Owl and I made that for myself and then my life partner told me that someone would buy that at the craft fair and that didn’t even occur to me to sell these there, so I ended up buying more because he told me that. I did bring this one with me to the craft fair and nobody wanted it. Every time somebody looked at it, I would tell them that it glowed in the dark and they would say oh that’s awesome, but still nobody wanted it. After the craft fair, one of my Etsy customers bought it as a Christmas gift for a friend of theirs.
So, I posted a video on TikTok about all of the diamond paintings that I bought for Halloween from Michael’s craft store and someone actually told me that she wanted the Jack-O’-Lanterns and so I told her what my price was and she accepted. So I made it and I sent it to her, but I didn’t have one for myself and I originally wanted this for myself and Michael’s had already sold out of this one, so I went to eBay and found one and I actually paid $30 to get it. The one you see in the image above is the one that I made for myself.
I didn’t want to get the skeletons because I wasn’t even sure if I would even hang them because of the morbidity of them being skeletons you know. But of course for Halloween that’s a totally different story, but still, I wasn’t sure I would even hang them in my room. Before I even went to the craft fair, I showed these two skeleton diamond paintings to my neighbor and she actually told me that she wanted to buy the Skeleton Lovers. So I did not bring that one with me to the craft fair. I actually brought the Regency Skeletons with me and nobody wanted it. A couple of people thought it was cool, but not enough to want to buy it. So I did hang it in my room and I actually love it. I actually fell in love with the Skeleton Lovers and wish that I could have bought another one when I had the chance. They actually restocked it on the Michaels website and I bought one, but it didn’t come. They gave me something else instead. Something that I already had, which was really disappointing because I really wanted that one for myself.
I actually have many more Diamond paintings that are in a drawer that I wasn’t able to make before Halloween, but I have a whole year to make them before next Halloween, and I’m very excited to make them. I have all four of the mystery Diamond paintings and I love them all. One of them is flowers and that one is supposed to be for Halloween, but a lot of people think that it was not Halloween related because it’s flowers, but it does look like a Halloween type of flowers to me. Another one is a skeleton in a frame and it kind of looks like the Regency skeleton collections that they had at Michaels for this season. Then there is another one that is a skull sitting on a book and that looks pretty cool. Then the fourth one is actually Jack-O’-Lanterns with a crow. That one is a glow in the dark one and I really look forward to making that one.




And then I have some other ones that are square diamond paintings. I have the Haunted Mansion, the Headless Horseman, Three Ghosts, Spell Book, the Cat with Pumpkin (which is actually round and not square) and the Wondering one which is Alice from Alice in Wonderland.






I clearly have a severe case of FOMO 😂. But the reason why is because I discovered that once they sell out of all of these for the season, they will never have them ever again. And I wanted them, so I bought them. I actually have two of the Spell Book and two of the Three Ghosts and the reason why is because I bought another Skeleton Lovers and another Jack-o’-Lanterns and they didn’t come, instead I got these duplicates. But that is okay because somebody on TikTok wants me to sell them the Three Ghosts kit and I also want to make the Spell Book for someone and I also want to keep the other one for myself. So it all worked out in the end.
I remember when I finished buying all of the summer diamond paintings saying I don’t think I will buy any of their Halloween diamond paintings because even though I love Halloween, I don’t love it that much. Well, I bought every diamond painting they had for Halloween lol. I have no regrets.
