Yes!! I bought two eyeshadow panels- about 40 colors- to do this... but my technique has improved as well... Great video.. I can see what you're doing clearly.. Would also love to see an effective straightening video. I find they just bounce back to their original placement.
Sometimes I don't think it's us laying drills down. I believe the lines are not straight especially squares. Because I can lay washi tape and start out straight as straight and then all of a sudden the tape goes not so straight. I lift it up and follow the faint line. And it's not straight plus we have to remember a machine is printing these canvases. I am not quite sure there is a perfect way to straighten drills. For many reasons. How you lay them, if lines are accurate straight, type of glue (pour, or double sided glue, which is hard to move drills anyways) and many other reasons....
ooo i can make a strighting video!!!
🍎🍎🍎
What type of eyeshadows did you use, a specific brand? Did you also use the toothbrush method also? I such a perfectionist I just hate any gapping, lol!
🍎 Tilesetters have a saying “don’t doubt the grout”. Grout applied between tiles hides minor imperfections in tile placement. So your method is just like applying grout. So cool! I’ll definitely try this for those light area where I can see every gap. Thanks for sharing!
🍎This is genius. For some reason the pale coloured drills seem to be slightly smaller, so the gapping is not only more noticeable but also more likely to occur due to size discrepancy in the drills. I'll definitely be using this in future. Thank you! 💜
So this video was mentioned in a diamond painting group on Facebook, and I'm so glad I searched it out. I love your personality! And I am definitely going to try this method. I think it worked fantastic!!!!
I’m so glad you enjoyed!!!
I just used mica powder on my custom which had bad gapping and this worked wonders!!! Still can see some but it’s no where near as bad!
Yay!!! I’m so glad!!!
Hi. I just started working the "MIni Soul of the Rose" - a monster 22.5" x 34.5" square drills (87 colors) which I purchased from HAED. It is the largest project I have yet to work on and it will likely take two-three years as I have at least 20 cross stitch WIPs on the go. In any case, I started my diamond painting an hour ago, and was already frustrated by the gaps. I stumbled on your video while looking for how to store a canvas in progress and so glad to have found you! Thank you so much for sharing the mica powder solution. I will let you know how things turn out in two or three years.
I heard about your channel from Danielle, (Stitcherista), and have now found another channel to watch. Loved this video. I am going to try this method. I have now seen two other videos of yours; love your content. I have subscribed and look forward to bingeing your content. So glad I listened to Danielle
Jade! I so needed this! I just finished a snowman that is full of training wheels-- I cannot even stand to look at it! I cannot wait to try this!!!🍎🍎🍎
I'm so glad! i hateeeee training wheels!
What are training wheels???
@@bfamily6209 they are black or white guides that are on round paintinhs
I have some Mica powder stashed away somewhere, definitely gonna have to try this! Thank you so much Jade 🍎
Wow what a huge difference I’ll be stopping by Michael’s soon thank you very much for this method
hope you love it!
Found this link from Stitcherista's channel. Thank you so much and new subscriber now.
Wow can I say I’ve just use the mica powder on my diamond painting and wow just wow it’s changed it to being so much better thank you thank you thank you
Amazing! I can’t wait to try this. Thank you for sharing ❤
This is awesome! I agree especially for light color places on canvases this will work amazingly! I think it was last year people were putting glitter in between gaps after completing and that is something I want to try someday! Great hack!! 💖👍
Yes! Thank you!
Wow! Amazing! Trademark that! Looks great. I avoid paintings with large areas of white so I can’t wait to try this method! Hey maybe add some small white mica power bottles to your shop?!?!
thats a great idea!!! i will!
Thank you for this method. I think it would be extremely useful for white backgrounds. They are just so difficult to keep the gaps from. Thank you for the link too and your time to video this.
Peace and love abide with you 💕
Jade, that’s amazing how fast and effective your method is. I have the same issue and will be ordering some mica powder for sure. Thank you so much for sharing this. 😁👍
I think I am also as I have one that is really bad..no matter what I do it is still really bad.
I totally love this idea. I am new so have a LOT of gapping. Thank you so much!!
This video is exactly what I needed right now! 🙏🏻 I’m currently working on my first cross stitch conversion and the visible black grid lines of the blank canvas are showing through the tiny gaps between the light colored drills! Thanks for sharing this! 🤗
please share a photo when you try it!!!
I definitely will! I’ll be sure to take a before and after photo. Forgot to add an apple emoji to my first comment so here you go! 🍎🍎🍎
This is a great hack...I have a SQ DP that it has white on the whole background and no matter what I did I can't get it to look good. So this method I will be trying definitely. Thanks
Glad it was helpful! please sent me photos when you try it!!!
THAT'S incredible! THANK YOU for sharing!
Thank you for the video!!!! i will buy only the white because darker color is not that bad. xox
Will definitely be trying this on my HAED that I emailed you about. Will take before and after pictures. Fingers crossed. (It will be a bit as I’m waiting for some replacement drills.)
🍎 Thank you!
Where do I get this powder. I don't see a link 😕. Thank you for the tip, it's amazing how it hides the gapping. Genius idea and I will definitely call it the Mica method 👍
What a great tip and it looks really satisfying to brush that powder on! 🍎
Yessss! New logo, but my same favorite intro/outro music! Very nice! I use a similar method for gapping too. 🍎
lol gotta keep the music consistan... bev 👀
Brilliant. You are one clever mamacita!!! I will be using this on my completed canvas The Soul of the Rose (DBD). The gapping in the light colors is terrible. I think drill quality sub par. Had many issues with the drills and the adhesive is inconsistent. Has been most unenjoyable to work on. Thank you for this. I will push through the completion because I love the image. Love you!!!
🍎🍎🍎Omgoodness I'm SO glad I found this video!! I just completed A Little Witchy for Drills n Chills, and the gapping has driven me crazy!!!! I'm off to Amazon.....
So super cool, thanks for sharing will try this once I finish my Catana. ❤
let me know how it goes!!!
This is a great idea! Been a few pictures I have liked but not gotten in part because of light color backgrounds and this sounds perfect to fix that.
This is simply magic! Thank you for demonstrating and the links.
Ooh, I love this! I'm a single placer with tweezers kinda girl, but still: white is hell sometimes. I might try this for sure! For now; I'm sticking to the confetti without white background paintings, lol 😂
It’s magic!
This is a genius hack! Thank you for showing this.
🍎 great idea, will definitely add that to my collection of diamond painting accessories
Wonderful!
🍎awesome idea! Especially the round DbD - I had the symbols showing in xlarge on the kit I did and this is an awsome idea for coverage
Ohh so going to try this but for a dark background! Working on a black and white printed JWall canvas and having white gapping on dark areas..and it's bugging the heck out of me so definitely trying that! ❤🍎
🍎Thanks for sharing the “mica method” with us! Now I’ve gone mica powder crazy and bought every color under the sun! Just like diamond paintings, I have so many I will be doing them for years. 😅 anyway thanks again! 🫶🏼🩷😊
Thank you! I’m definitely going to use this brilliant hack!❤
Thanks for sharing!! I'm definitely getting the white mica powder 🍎
Absolutely fantastic result! thank you so much.xx
This is such an awesome hack! Thank you for sharing!🍎
Thanks for watching!
I’m excited to try this. Thank you so much for choosing to share it🍎
I am late to the party as usual😂. I have heard people talk about this, but didn't realize you started it! #micamethod 👏😁 It's genius and so. damn. simple.🍎
I’m glad you liked it!!! Better late then never
Oh wow! That's total magic. Thanks for sharing the great tip!! 😊
Question: how does it work on ab drills?? Will it mess with the coating? Cause we all got them white abs in a lot of DAC kits plus I always add white abs on other kits cause... I love then😂
This is genius! I think I'll buy a pack with multiple colours that way I can try match the colour cause I am that person that cares if its gaps anywhere when I'm finished I try wiggle and move drills next day then gaps are back😂 so I think personally I'd do it on almost a whole canvas depending on how much gapping I got, how sloppy has me placement been 😂 especially if I'm going to gift it to someone
That's amazing 🤩 I'm definitely trying this. Thank you for sharing
Now that was interesting. Thank you so much Jade. (Florida Bob) Tampa.

OMG, Jade I just head about this from Sticherista. This wayyyyyyyy sooooo coool! Thanks so much for sharing.
Love this!!! Thank you so much!! 🍎🍎🍎🍎
This is genius!
Nice Tip! I wonder if Mica powder eyeshadows would work?
Yes they do!
Awesome video love your idea❤
That’s so much! I’ve been wanting to try this. I have a lot of Mica powder, but it’s very pearlescent. Is yours super shiny? It’s hard to tell. Will mine work…?
@@swalker1348 yes it’s shiny!
🍎any other suggestion on the soft toothbrushes to use? Am I overthinking this? Amazon is out of the ones you linked.
No need to over think! If you search “baby toothbrush” it should work!
I’m a new subscriber 😃 Well done - impressive, going to try it 🍎
This would make a good asmr video of just applying the mica 😅
🍎 thanks for the informative video!!
love it, thanks
🍎Fantastic! Thanks!!!
Great video! Definitely have problems with gapping. Does anyone know if pan pastels would work for this?
No they are a little to oily so they may not stick to the glue in the gaps, any power would work like eyeshadow or baby powder
@@Jadeikens Thanks for that information. I will definitely be getting some mica powder!
🍎so cool!
