I am a huge advocate for working on what makes you happy at the time. I am a multi crafter. I used to feel guilty for not finishing as many projects as others do, but not anymore. If you’re feeling burnt out, TAKE A BREAK! you’ll come back to it. It’s not a race and it will be waiting for you when you’re ready. Forcing yourself will make you hate it eventually.

I was feeling burnout on a wip that has massive sections of tedious color blocking, I would sit and work on it for hours at a time feeling like I wasn't getting anywhere or accomplishing anything. So I did a couple of things to fight the burnout: 1) I started taking a photo of the canvas at the end of each diamond painting session. Looking through the series of photos helped me see that I actually was making real progress. 2) I made the diamond painting sessions shorter, one hour max for that wip. After one hour, I would switch over to a different wip that I absolutely loved working on and has much less color blocking.

I tried to do events as a newbie and could not deal with it! The pressure was real! I don’t do them anymore. I also change up my kits. If I have done a really large one, my next will be small, and maybe a low budget that I don’t really care about. I also do many other crafts, and sometimes do that, but I usually don’t go more than a week without diamond painting. I truly love it. These were great tips and a great video idea!❤

I find that it helps me not to burn out when I alternate working on square and round kits. By the time I’m finishing one I’m usually getting excited to work on the other. I think it’s also helpful not to put too much pressure on yourself to finish a kit quickly. If it starts to feel like a chore/boring switch it up and work on something else until you are motivated to go back and finish it 💜

Green gets me too! I thought I was the only one 😂 For me one thing I am learning is that it is important for me to be willing to “skip around” on larger canvases and not lock myself into one row or column at a time. I’m doing Books n Nooks right now and going around the edge and saving the middle is helping me stay excited, for example.

As someone living overseas, with a limited budget due to being on a disability pension, I have massive FOMO. I have 1 pen, no special trays, waxes or placers, and constantly miss out on almost every painting that I want to get. I'm also terrible when it comes to comparing myself to others; it can be incredibly difficult for me to see people take 1 week on a kit that might take me 2 months. I always try to have listen to something, usually your channel and an old WIP and chat, while working on something.

I've only been diamond painting for about 18 months, so I haven't truly felt burnout yet. In fact, I did a large Hannah Lynn for 4th of July (Lady Liberty) and I worked on her for 14 hrs straight but it was only my 4th finish ever. After that, I switched to squares, a very small 12x12". And then I went back to a large round (Forest Friends) for Christmas with, as you can imagine, lots of snow, gray spindly trees in the background. It looked daunting, so I started at the bottom and covered all but the first two "rows" in release paper so I didn't have to look at how much boring stuff was going to be from the last 2/3 up, lol. I don't enter contests for that reason. I don't want to feel pushed to complete something. And I truly cannot imagine the content creators having to pump out completions even when they may not feel like it. All of us "watchers" appreciate seeing other's completions.

I'm brand new to diamond painting, so I haven't necessarily experienced it yet. However, I did experience a burnout for a particular kit - my first square kit. I did finally finish it but it frustrated me that I didn't want to work on it. To try to avoid burnout, I try to make sure that I have several smaller kits (like paint gem or less than 12 x 16 inches) so when I get frustrated or bored of the big painting I'm doing, I can take a break. I have noticed that when I go back to the bigger kit, the excitement is renewed.

This is so spot on to what I do without me even knowing it was helping in this way! Because of that, this video had me so excited just listening to what you were saying and I watched it twice! I swap kits because I squirrel quite a bit. I just cant look at one thing for a long time or I will start to not want to. So I diamond paint and cross stitch everyday. Some days I do more of one than the other and some days I will just crochet because both are burning me out and it definitely works. I love the way landscapes look but I have done a couple and 1 has been a wip for years now. Its something about the colors that just make me tired. Its crazy because one of the colors is purple and its my favorite. So it will get done when it gets done. I need bright colors or bright pastels. Trying something new for me was sectioning off. Especially with a big kit. It would seem I'm never gonna finish if I looked at the whole kit. I have even covered some in release papers so I can only see what section Im doing at the time. If I feel burn out coming on, I do several of the things that you have mentioned. Other things I do is watch someone's playlist of wip and chats and not diamond paint. I just watch. I usually watch from the beginning of older videos and come forward. I have no idea why that works for me but it absolutely does. I watch your wip and chats and Rachel Rae's get to know me and the wip and chats. Like I said I dont know why that works but it works like a charm every single time. Then I go thru my stash and find what's calling to me and start. I usually dont work on a wip if Im coming out of or avoiding burn out. It seems to set me back. This was a great video!!!!

I started diamond painting in 2018. I have learned burnout for everyone has different triggers. I do switch different crafts at times which I have done my whole life. It could be an ADHD thing or just a boredom, always looking to change things up. I prefer darker colors and attracted to certain patterns; however, there are paintings with lighter colors and designs no one would think I would love and I have to get them. I do have a rule to not make snap decisions. If you love it today, tomorrow and next week then you are in love.

I used to do alot of events, but I found that I had paintings I couldn't do since they didn't fit into the themes. I work 50 - 60 hours a week, so it makes it difficult to work on something for an event and maybe something else at the same time. It would make me feel like I wasn't making progress on any of them. So now I have done 1 event in the last 8 months and it was a relaxed event. Great tips in your video.

I do agree with FOMO I fell into trap when I first started mostly due to the “limited run” of the kit and then the cost of buying from a de-stash (increased prices but loss of warranty etc), now I’m struggling with de-stashing because of the time to pack and ship …

In a million years. I had to mentally block out the subject and concentrate on one section at a time and it was still like pulling teeth to get thru it. It felt like months.

Sometimes it helps to work on “off canvas” projects like ornaments, coasters, keychains, or even special drill canvases. I know these are not offered thru the premium Diamond painting shops but not everything has to be by a licensed artist. Temu is a great place to purchase “budget” projects while having a great variety. While I have purchased from premium shops, they have a tendency of offering mostly square canvases, I can not even begin to tell you how much I hate doing squares.

Not enjoying a kit when I’m working on it is exactly why I’ve temporarily kitted down both “Comfortably Numb” and “Day Fishing at the Mill” (both from DAC). Both frustrated me - Comfortably Numb had horrendous gapping (to my standards) and Day Fishing at the Mill is a pretty large landscape I’m planning on gifting someone for Christmas and the sheer amount of confetti and my general desire for landscapes is limited, so I had to take a break. Instead I’m working on some small paintings and kitted up “Cosmic Trip” because it’s one I’ve wanted to do for a long time.

Ive had burnout a few times with multiple hobbies, and I agree it's so important to not beat yourself up for it, just accept you're not feeling it and trust that with time it'll come back. With diamond painting in particular, I find the burnout starts to creep in when I'm either dealing with poor quality kits (I can't stand sorting through a ton of trash drills) or working with a lot of browns (3371 will be the death of me). I've basically always got a kit with more colours in it that I alternate working on with the brown kits, because while I know I'll love the finished result, it can be tough to get there!

When I get approval, then I am cheered up and will return to Diamond Painting. I am still learning to ignore my friends who think Diamond painting is a children's hobby. With Golden Cocker Spaniel I have divided the canvas on the bottom into 12 10x10cms squares. Much easier for me to work on. Now to work on my caregiver to let me purchase a real Cocker Spaniel puppy. I have a 10 year old Doxle ( Dachshund Beagle mix). He needs a friend. I like the suggestions of stop working on a large one and working on a small one. I would, but my caregiver would yell at me at the top of her lungs on why I haven't finished the large one. May the fourth be with you!

My problem is is that I don't have the room to work on multiple kits as once...I am confined to one at a time otherwise my craft room looks like a hoarders paradise. This craft has made me into a shopping addict and not in a good way. I can't keep on every couple of years buying new craft things when I don't have the room. Some people kinda laugh when I say "Oh I have a problem" when I am actually serious and scared of the problem. My family said it was better when I was doing digital art and writing because I could keep myself organized when with crafts like traditional art or a craft like diamond painting. So I'm at a place where I'm at a fork in the road on do I keep going since I spent so much money on this or do I just toss since I have no boxes or packaging from the kits to make it worth trying to destash.

I alternate and do a jigsaw puzzle when I feel burned out

I find that I can get burnt out when there are not a lot of things to 'discover' in a painting. Too much of the same thing bothers me.
