This is the first diamond painting kit I've ever gotten, and I had a blast! The gems are very pretty, and it's super easy to use. It's really fun, moving the painting around and watching the light bounce off them, as well as hearing the noise it makes.
I do have a few small critiques, though. There are some spaces that only need a handful of gems, but I got a whole packet full, and now have far too many. And one of the colors kept pulling the wax out of the placing tool, for some reason. I can only assume it has something to do with its texture. Aside from that though, everything is lovely, and it's been a lot of fun, watching it all come together.
