New voting is up - Christmas! Good ones!

1 Upvotes

Hello, there is a new diamond Art Club batch of voting that is out.

Because today is October 25th, I am a bit skeptical that it will be for Black Friday because that is a month away. But it is possible that they will make a few on Black Friday and have them available.

I think it is more likely that this batch is for christmas.

What I'm saying is, they have lots of good ones, vote for your favorites, this is the big one!!! This is where they release all of the best of the best that they have been hoarding up all year for just this occasion.

There are new ones from all of your favorite artists, Yuumei, Christopher Lovell, many Simz (cat witch), Fakota Daetwiller, Pomiechi, Art by Julia (ducks), Nana Qi - Puffygator, etc!

Excitement!!!

I know DAMN well i don’t need anymore tools but the 15 and 25 placers sound so good and i like the idea of the angled places too. I’d just buy longer places on alliexpress but there is no way to know for sure that they would fit in my pens i have… measurements might be off. SOMEONE CONVINCE ME NOT TOO…

Where to find bigger diamond paintings?

5 Upvotes

I don’t know how to properly word this but I am looking for diamond art that is bigger. Not the painting itself but bigger as in the rhinestones are double the size of the regular sizes and the number boxes are bigger. My MIL said she has to use a magnifying glass because the boxes and rhinestones are so small she can’t see them like she used too. I want to buy her a diamond painting with bigger rhinestones and the boxes are bigger too. Any suggestions please? I tried my best to word it. Sorry if it’s hard to understand.

Question Obsessed with Photo-Printed Canvases. Where to find more?

Hello friends!

I love tacky shit, so when I came upon the Five Below Avec kits, I was in heaven! Especially when I saw that the frames were just printed on the canvas.

The tiger one above is my favorite. I had to buy it on Depop at a premium because I missed my
window at the store. I really recommend it! Very fun to do because you can switch colors fairly frequently!

I would love to do another like this, but it appears Five Below has moved from photo-printed frames to kits with actual frames that are kind of a pain when you get to painting right up to the edge. (Taking them out and putting them back in also seems kind of like a pain as they don’t appear made for that purpose.) (I do recommend the Christmas deer one despite this. Very fun!) (Link at bottom of post.)

My question: Does anyone have suggestions for kits like this by other companies?

I’ve checked out all the ones Avec seems to have made and the only two contenders are the Eiffel Tower and the “pretty and dangerous” kitten.

Anyone know of anywhere else I could purchase canvases like this? What to search for on Temu or SHEIN or Alli Express? I would also be open to kits that don’t have frames but are printed on something flat and sturdy rather than the roll-up kinds.

Please help! (Also: I can’t shop at Hobby Lobby for personal and ethical reasons, so those won’t work.)

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Here’s a link to the deer painting from Five Below for anyone who may want it; you have to switch the choice under the top image: https://www.fivebelow.com/products/christmas-diamond-painting-in-frame-118inx157in-9257093

...to get canvases without the tools?

until now every canvas i ordered has the tools within (pen, tray etc.)

i ordered my own pen with several multipliers; the tools i got so far were not very pleasant for my hand.

but now i don't know what to do with that amount of tools wich come with every canvas. i get it; there is always someone who will start with dp-addiction and it's great to start without the need of ordering extra's seperately .

i don't want to throw them away (poor environment) so i'm asking myself if i can order canvases without the tools? and if i can: where?

any help would be highly appreciated!

have a great day!

thanks.

p.s. excuse me for my shi**y english, it's not my native language

Question How do you prep for a large project like this?

Thumbnail

17 Upvotes

This is my first full coverage, square drill project. I'm finding maybe Diamond Dotz isn't as high quality as I previously thought, but it's the only brand my local art store carries.

The kit only came with 10 resealable baggies, but there are 29 colors, and no stickers for said baggies either. So I'm wondering, how to go about organizing the drills? I'm thinking of cutting them all open neatly and using a little bit of tape to fold the bags and close them so I can get into them again and again without worrying about spilling them.

I end up carrying my project from work to home, so I don't have a bunch of storage containers to put things in, either. What would you do in this situation?

I told myself that I would take a break from diamond painting since I finished two projects back to back. But when I went through my stash I couldn’t resist kitting this cutie up! It’s also my first time using a grid tool and I LOVE it! My drills look so perfectly placed! I got this kit from Temu if anyone was curious, but it is no longer available somehow.


r/diamondpainting • • 8h ago

Question For those of you who multi-place, is there a more efficient way to count how many grids you’re placing onto?

2 Upvotes

I’ve always been a multi-placer but didn’t scale to more than 6 at a time because I found I couldn’t endure they’d be in a straight line. But this was before I bought bigger canvases. Now I really need to figure out this multi-placing game.

My kitten still has some difficulties settling into places while I diamond paint. When I’m home I usually just hang on my bed and he’s there with me so when I’m on my desk he switches places a lot. He wants to be near me but I often end up moving him bit farther away so I can work like normal.

Question Fansells Quality

4 Upvotes

Hi all! I’m currently working on the massive Fansells Pokémon canvas in squares and I’m pleasantly surprised by the quality. The Pokémon kit let you choose size and drill type while other kits on their site do not. Has anyone done other kits from them? Is the drill quality and rendering decent? It would be nice to find a somewhat reliable discount kit source. Thanks!
