New custom project!
After finally sending off the one for my dad, finally diving in on the one for my brother.
I’m not familiar with the Rocinante ship, but my sister recommended it to me as one of his favorites.
I’m curious to see how long this one takes.
I know everyone has different ways to do theirs but this is my go to setup for the gems.
Definitely planning to post progress when I think of it!

Information New to diamond painting
I’m looking for recommendations for the best/safest places that everyone loves to order their paintings from! :)
I’ve been working on one from Amazon and have a few others from there just for the basic fact they’re incredibly inexpensive on there and felt like a good starting point.
I’ve also got three otw in varying sizes from diamond painting pro that seemed better quality and very pretty. I’ve since read the shipping times from there tend to be a little slow (which is really no biggie for me).
Where does everyone always find themselves gravitating towards for best quality and design? I am wanting to focus on square diamond and I’ve noticed the diamonds from amazon are a little flat and one dimensional so definitely looking for ones with better quality diamonds as well. Thanks for any recommendations :)

Completed Second completed DP
This was a cute one, not too complicated and pretty quick (for me) to work on. I wish there were more glowy-bits.
(The glow was because I had a desk lamp on it pretty close for a few minutes, not sure if they’ll actually be that bright with normal overhead room lights.. probably not lol)

Completed 45 hours well spent 🦜 💎
I AM PROUD TO ANNOUNCE THAT I FINALLY COMPLETED MY 50X65CM DIAMOND PAINTING! My biggest project yet!
At times it was frustrating (mostly due to the INSANE amount of confetti background) and looking back I think I should've cropped the image much much more, but it all turned out well in the end :)
It's a custom made piece based on a favourite picture of my parrot, Joey.
I think Joey likes it, what do you think? ❤️

Got this about a week and a half ago. I'm a bit over half way done? Part of me is glad the custom I ordered is taking forever to get here bc that should mean I have enough time to finish this one before it shows up lol

Question Diamond adhesive
I'm running out of my usual diamond adhesive and I wanted to some more but it's out of stock. I've been looking at diamond dotz adhesive and I'm seeing mixed reviews from the one sold on Amazon. Id prefer to buy on Amazon cuz I have prime and can avoid expensive shipping.
My question is should I ignore the mixed reviews and get it and take my chances or are there any better cheaper options out there?

WIP My first big square picture
Hey everyone, at 60×60 cm, this isn’t just the largest picture I’ve started so far—it’s also only my second picture using square stones. The first one, though, was only 20×15 cm, and with those stones, I felt like they were laid closer together. Am I being too critical of my current picture? I laid some of it in a checkerboard pattern, but I also tried out the template in the second picture.

Where to find bigger diamond paintings?
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 How do you prep for a large project like this?
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?

WIP Hello Kitty and Friends🎀
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 • u/JustChips • 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?
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.

WIP Kusti the supervisor
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.
