Cat Diamond Painting Kit Tea Time, Round Drill 40x60cm Floral Diamond Art for Adults, Full Drill DIY Craft Kit, Cat Lover Wall Decor Gift

If you have ever put a hot cup down and turned away for four seconds, you already know how this ended. These two got there first and they are not giving it back.

Two cats sit side by side cradling their teacups, one glazed deep teal, the other warm rust, steam still coming off both cups. Roses and daisies climb across their coats in gold, coral and lavender, painted onto the animals rather than growing behind them, the way folk art puts pattern straight onto the subject. It is a tall canvas, so the pair stack up the frame instead of spreading across it, and the vines run vertically with them. The teal cat is the darkest area and the best place to start while your hand is fresh.

Thirty-eight colors, DMC 300 through DMC 3856, is the widest palette in the collection and this piece needs every one of them. Flowers laid over fur only stay legible if the petals and the coat never share a shade, and that is what the extra fifteen colors are buying you.

The details

• 40 x 60 cm (15.7 x 23.6 in)
• Full coverage, round drills
• 38 DMC colors, DMC 300 to DMC 3856
• Adhesive canvas with printed symbols and color legend
• Sealed, numbered, DMC color-coded drill packets
• Stylus pen, grooved tray, wax refill and tweezers included

Straight talk

Roughly 30 to 35 hours, and not the kit to learn on. Thirty-eight packets will outrun a single grooved tray, so a sorted storage box helps more here than anything else you could buy alongside it. The canvas is 60cm on the long side and ships rolled, which means a full night flat and a table that can take the length. Kit only, not a finished picture, and no frame is included.

The tea was never yours. Put them up in the kitchen and let them enjoy it.
