Diamond Painting

This at-home arts and crafts project goes by a variety of names, 5-D Cross Stitching, Diamond Embroidery, and others. No matter what you call it though, it is a fun and very time-consuming craft or hobby. You can find kits everywhere from Amazon to Wish, and some of the designs are really cool.
