Watching a new person getting so excited about this craft is so nice to see and hear. I have been diamond painting for over 5 years. I have completed approximately 60 paintings (all large in size) and some ornament sets. I started out doing round drills but quickly found square drills were my favorite as they give you a more complete looking picture when finished. Some hints: 1. size makes a difference. The smaller it is the more pixilated. If you have faces in your picture, go big! 2. Find a way to set up a drill system for you. I purchased 4oz. Slime cups (plastic with lid) and write on them using a Sharpie. I write the DMC# and the symbol on each cup. When I am finished I use an Expo Marker directly over the Sharpie to erase. Then proceed setting up next canvases drills. 3. Start saving your extra Drills. Why? Because sometimes other kits are short beads, or you don't like a color so you want to change it, or a bead falls off eventually. 4. Complete your canvas in sections. I prefer starting on the bottom right and complete all colors for a symbol in that section and complete that entire section and move on. If you don't like the plastic it comes with, you can replace with parchment paper or buy these squares to cover in small patches. 5. Try not to get anything stuck to the glue. If you do get paper stuck, have Baby Wipes on hand as that will bring the stickiness back. 6. Use Painters tape or duck tape to cover the extra adhesive around the canvas so you don't stick to it and it doesn't get dirty. When you are finished you can use Washi tape to make a pretty edge around it to frame. 7. I seal my paintings when finished. The three I like best are Krylon Glitter Blast Gloss spray paint, Modge Podge super gloss and Min wax polyurethane gloss. Always gloss, never matte. Hope this helps anyone out wanting to start this craft. It does become addicting trust me.
What wonderful tips you shared. I was given a diamond painting kit this week as a present and these tips will really help me to get set up and doing my first painting. Thanks so much.
@@rachaelbullmore48 You're so welcome. I realized when I reread what I wrote that I left out probably one of the biggest tips. Lol. I highly, highly suggest getting a light board if you can. I started with an A4 size which is the smallest (standard 8x10paper size) and just moved it around under my canvas. I upgraded to an A3 size and love it as it covers a larger section (16×20 I think). When I first started I didn't have a light board so I wore one of those headbands with a light on it and quickly realized I needed the light under the canvas. Also, did I mention Aliexpress? I buy my canvases on there as the larger sizes are cheaper. They come from China so a little slower. If you want to know any good stores let me know! Have fun! And be prepared, this is addicting!
The more you complete the more addictive it gets I did one and now I’m on ten I can’t stop lol it’s a nice pass time to do when your done with school for the day at home to calm down.
I love it. Me and my autistic son do it together. It’s really calms him and we can spend hours just working on a our big 3 projects we have been doing for the last year.
Ive been Dimond Painting for about 6 months and I love it so much the placers you just showed one is a 2-3 placer and the other is a 4-6 placer and I’m sure where you live but here in Australia we have places like reject shop, spotlight, red dot, big w ect and they are great places to buy containers just to let you know enjoy.
I agree diamond painting can be very addictive. For me I am working on a piece that is very big and I’m more than half ways in after 5 months! It is very therapeutic for me and helps me calm down! Also you can find some kits at hobby lobby!

Just wanted to let you know that the glue does not dry out. Love how excited you got. 😄. Some people put square cover the diamond painting so their hand doesn’t get stuck on the canvas. If you find you really like this craft, I suggest trying micro glue dots. I would love to see your updates. Ask away with any questions.
I got my first diamond painting when I was 12 and I can’t tell you how much I love them. I have already made sure the house that I buy has a little craft room so that I can store them in there if I need to ever get away from my kids in the future.
I bought my first diamond painting a few weeks ago. I can't wait to start it! I haven't had the time yet. Thank you for showing us the process. I LOVE the sunflower picture you chose! 😊
I have been doing diamond paintings for a while as well but i do recomend buying them from shein.It is alot cheper.You can also buy kits with more plasers,trays and boxes
these serve as great presents as well 😊 i made a hot air balloon one and framed it for my grandma for christmas! she absolutely loved it and at first didn’t realize that i had made it 😂
thank you so much for sharing this .. I see these kits every time I go to my craft store & I've been dying to try it .. next pay day I'm definitely going to get one 😊♥️
Diamond painting is fun to do and addicting one of things i bought that is worth the money is a light pad so you dont have to hurt your eyes. Buy some tic tac storage from amazon. I still have have a couple of diamond painting to do have not done all the ones i have. But right now im working on hogwarts castle
Normally I don’t cut the film and when I finish a session I just put the film on top on the diamonds 💎 I also use blu tack instead of red wax and it lasts longer
I've made DP since... 2017 I guess, and I have a large one, 60cm by 60cm so huge and long! It's been three years I'm making it; I didn't have much time and much place to put it permanently on a table x) It's a Arabian girl with her blue veil and with only the eyes we can see, it's beautiful.
@@natasamilosevic3049 A lot of people in the Diamond Painting community choose not to order on Ali Express because they use stolen art for the diamond paintings.
I’ve never done and I want to so much. What do you recommend as a starter and what price? I’ve seen people use light pads, do you really need one? Give me all the info I’m so excited to try it out.
Heyo! So a recommended size for beginners is 30x40 and amazon do really lovely ones that size. They are usually less than £10. Also light pads are useful as it lights up the symbols, making them easier to see. You can get an A4 one or A3. They range in price. I hope this helps!
Thanks for sharing. It was fun to see you explain how to do it. I'd like to try a smaller painting to see if I like it or not. Do they sell smaller sizes?
We all sin but Jesus was sent down to die for us and our sins so we will have a chance to have eternal life with him! He loves u so much and cares for u so much!.

the more you diamond paint the more addicting it gets
That's so trueee! 💛💛💛💛
This reminds me of the kohl's saying the more you shop the more you kolhs or something like that
I know right! I started a year ago, I’ve completed 126, about 5 hours a day 😳
I have a problem
@@Ally0620 I think its “the more you shop,the more you drop”
@@randomw33b2 that's way more than I have done I've been doing it for 3 years or more

Mine came with a case for the diamonds and I also bought the illuminator which lights it up from behind.
