My idea for left over beads was (and I have done this many times) draw an item such as Xmas tree butterfly flower onto double sided sticky paper,cut image out peel one side put on greeting card peel other side and stick on beads,it looks really good.
I never would have thought about doing something like this before but it really looks really amazing and awesome to do, plus I have plenty of extra diamond drills to work with so I'm definitely going to give it a try no doubt about that!! Hopefully in the summer time so that I can do it outside instead of inside the house sadly not enough room in the house to be able to do something so amazing! Let's just hope that I can get a great day in the summer time that it won't be too windy or to hot!
Hi Havin, Hold on to them and save them for a special project of your own. You can add them to wooden letters, make your own diamond paintings, add them to sneakers or fill bottles. See all our videos on this subject on our channel. Great question and thanks. Paul
I save all my drills. I have one box for the square and one for round. Each bag is labeled with the DMC number. If there is not a DMC number, I have a different box for them and the name of the kit goes one the label. I save those papers that show the "legend" . By sorting them this way, I can easily replace any drills that might pop off the art in the future. I have a babbie for the "reject drills". I put all the unusable drills and drill pieces in there. They can be used if I want to fill little decorative containers.
What I have done is use used RX bottles to store all the extra diamond dotz--bwoken down by #--takes many--BUT when you need them, you have them--I built a long cabinet to store these bottles in!
I teach 5th grade and each year I try and do a fun and different year end project. I wonder if my students would like to create a small painting using my leftover diamonds??

Awesome!
Is there an alternative for spray mount adhesive?
Hi Kristine, There are a lot of spray adhesives at Walmart, Target and Hobby Lobby. We prefer the Scotch brand. It works very well. Paul
Love this!...Thanks for the great ideas!👍✌️
Thank you!!
That looks awesome
Thank you very much!
The Mod Podge that works great is with a blue label called Brilliant. That is the way to go.
Thanks for the tip! We are trying this one in our next video. Thanks again.
Absolutely beautiful I'm new to diamond painting I've just finished a koala bear in the eucalyptus tree 30cm X 30cm and I'm now working on big Ben
Can i just use doulbe sided tape like the thin one instead of the spray thing
Absolutely

Cool idea for left overs or that schools or daycares could use if people donate their left overs
Great idea!!
I'd rather use them for my own projects Id sell them though I never never donate to schools they have plenty of money to bye there own stuff
Very cute
You are so kind

It can be done. Recommend go slow and work up and down or side to side.
Do we still have a chance to win the current give away if we don’t have IG?
