Hi everyone! My latest UnicornPostbox blog post is progression photos of a ‘Tree of Life’ diamond art.. hope you like! 😄😄

I appreciate the photos look fairly similar haha, but I can promise and assure you it took hours and hours, weeks and weeks of perseverance and dedication to complete!

I absolutely love doing my diamond arts… Sat in my little art room, music on, in my own little world 😄

This one in particular I found very enjoyable. I just love the bold colours and how thousands of beads can transform into such a beautiful piece of art 🎨

My next diamond art is a Lion 🦁 So watch this space 😛😛

Thank you as ever for reading/ viewing 😀

Hi everyone! My latest blog post is progression photos of a mama and baby elephant diamond art… hope you enjoy! 😄

This diamond art took me a few weeks to complete. They are very time-consuming, all the individual beads to stick, however it is so therapeutic. Put some music on, and I’m in my element. I have purchased a new diamond art of a magical, colourful ‘tree of life’, so that’ll be fun to get going! 😀

And here is the finished piece! 🐘🐘

Thank you as always for taking the time to read/view! 💕💕

Now we’re in summer, expect some more upcycled furniture for the Children’s Air Ambulance store! I’ve got a new pub painting at the beginning of August too..so watch this space 😜😜

Much love, Lauren xx

Hi everyone! My latest UnicornPostbox blog post is progression photos of an enchanted forest diamond art 💎🎨 Hope you like!

It was so much fun doing this diamond art! They are so time consuming (took me a few weeks) but so therapeutic and enjoyable 😄

I have another previous diamond art I am trying to sell with this one, to go towards my fundraising for Alzheimer’s Society (I’m doing a paraglide in the Peak District)..my sister bought me another elephant diamond art too to complete next 💕

Here is the finished art piece…

I am quite proud of this, and looking forward to doing the next diamond art!

Next, however, I am planning on drawing a portrait as it’s sooooo long since I’ve done so…I won’t detail who I am drawing as it is a surprise present for a friend who may read this..haha 😆 But yeah, keep a look out 😜

Thank you as always for reading/viewing!

Many thanks, Lauren xx

Hi everyone! My latest blog post is progression photos of an Elephant diamond art. Hope you like!

Diamond (or crystal) art is so fun and therapeutic, although it takes forever and a day to complete, hehe. I’ve been on with this one for a number of weeks. Elephants are my favourite animals, they’re so beautiful. It’s lovely to sit in my little art room at home, listening to music and completing the diamond art… And here’s the final piece:

I have a few projects to do next for the Children’s Air Ambulance; a white gloss cabinet, some decoupage tables and painting/creating a drafts table.. so I’ve plenty to keep myself occupied lol 😆

Thank you as always for taking the time to read/view my blog post!

Kind regards, Lauren xx

‘Beautiful Buddha’ – diamond art progression photos

Hi everyone! I hope you are all well. My latest blog post is progression photos of a diamond art ‘Beautiful Buddha’, I hope you enjoy!

As ever, diamond art projects are very time consuming, but really therapeutic. It has taken me a good few weeks, but I think the result is worth it definitely. I think it’s rather good, if I don’t say so myself, hehe.. and it’s already been sold as fundraising for the Children’s Air Ambulance! (I’m doing an abseil down Liverpool cathedral in the coming weeks!).

Here is the finished product:

I’m pretty pleased and proud of myself!

For my upcoming blog posts, I’ve got two more diamond arts to do, an enchanted forest and an Elephant – those, as well as selling bobble hats for my fundraising.

For the charity shop, I’m on with a wooden rocking chair, kindly donated by my friend Ky, to use in the cafe kids play area upstairs.. So please, keep a look out for my new posts.

Many thanks, much love, Lauren xx

Casper the Cosmic Wolf diamond art – progression photos

Hi fellow bloggers / followers, my latest blog post is progression photos of a cosmic wolf diamond (crystal) art, with over 6500 jewels. I hope you like…

With there being over 6500 jewels, you can imagine it’s very time consuming to complete a diamond art; it is however greatly therapeutic. It’s lovely to put my music on and enjoy the creative process. Moreover, it is deeply satisfying once the art piece is complete. I donated it to the Children’s Air Ambulance 🙂 🙂 Here is Casper!

I’ll look now at purchasing some more diamond arts, either from the Range again or online…

My third upcycling project for the Children’s Air Ambulance is a storage book I mentioned previously, to which I’ve already decoupaged and painted. So watch this space! Likewise, I’m going to get knitting hats / scalves etc for refugees, I think that’ll be a lovely thing to do 🙂 🙂

As always, thanks so much for reading /viewing 🙂

All the best, Lauren xx

Marilyn Monroe diamond (crystal) art – progression photos

Hi everyone! My latest blog post is progression photos of a Marilyn Monroe diamond art! It’s taken me a good few weeks to complete, but definitely worth it in the end I think, I’m pretty proud, haha. Hope you enjoy!

Norma Jeane Baker, born 1st June 1926, was transformed into Marilyn Monroe, the American sex symbol of the 1950s and early 1960s – a ‘blonde bombshell’, established model and actress who remains one of the most iconic women in film history; defining an era in the Golden Age of Hollywood.

Here are some of her famous and inspirational quotes:

‘I don’t want to make money, I just want to be wonderful’

‘We should all start to live before we get too old’

‘I’m selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I’m out of control, and at times hard to handle. But if you can’t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don’t deserve me at my best’

‘We are all of us stars, and we deserve to twinkle’

‘I defy gravity’

‘Give a girl the right shoes, and she can conquer the world’

‘Keep smiling, because life is a beautiful thing and there’s so much to smile about’

What a woman!
