Christmas Stocking - Elf Smurfette™

I bought this stocking for my daughter bc she loves The Smurfs. It’s very cute although a bit small.

Upon taking the protective film off half of the adhesive stayed on this film. So half of the diamonds I had to glue on and also I also applied a sealant at the end so the diamonds wouldn’t come off.

I gave it two stars for the low quality of the adhesive, it took me one more hour to finish this tiny painting. On the picture you can see Smurfete’s hair that is missing diamonds because it won’t stay. It happened to every color in the package! I took only one picture bc I don’t like to stop the process of diamond painting

I purchased 3 of the smurfettes and every one of them had an issue with the cover sheet/glue. When I removed the cover sheet it was so stuck on it pulled almost all of the glue off. I had to use dot stick inorder to complete it . When I contacted customer service the only option they gave me was to return it. I don't want to return them I already finished them for Christmas presents. I did not expect this problem from a premium company but I understand thing happen but I do think I should have been offered something --at the very least some sort of coupon.
