General Information:

Diamond Painting is a great way to spend the afternoon at home, together with your loved ones or enjoying the creative calm on your own. Everything you need to get started comes with the kit: the adhesive canvas, colorful rhinestones, tweezers (or stylus), and a small tray to make your workflow more comfortable. Some patterns are full drill, meaning that the entirety of it will be covered in gems and others are partial or semi drill – when only specific fragments of the image are covered in rhinestones.

Please keep in mind that the “diamonds” are not real, and are acrylic flat back rhinestones. Additionally, the pieces are quite small – if you wish to create one of these delicate paintings together with your child, do so under strict supervision. For independent work, we recommend ages 7 and up.

Each painting can take anywhere from a couple of days to a few weeks to complete, depending on how much time you can devote to it.

Instructions:

• Peel off a small portion of the protective film in the corner of your choice. It is not recommended to peel off the entire film at once, to prevent the adhesive layer from drying or gathering dust.
• The painting is broken down into color patterns, each one labeled with a letter or number – and corresponding to a color of the rhinestones. The key, or palette, can be found printed on the side of the painting.
• Begin working with one character, find its number on the palette and pour a small amount of corresponding rhinestones onto the tray. Do not mix rhinestones, as it is easy to confuse similar hues.
• Using the tweezers or stylus apply the rhinestones and gently press onto the adhesive layer of the canvas. Take care to assemble them as close to one another as possible.
• After filling one area of the painting, peel off more of the protective film and continue applying the rhinestones until the entire canvas is filled. Do not leave the adhesive layer exposed for an extended period of time.

Diamond Painting Aftercare:

• You can roll up the canvas, but do so with the rhinestones facing outward and roll very loosely.
• To preserve the painting we recommend framing your work under glass. Alternatively, you can use spray sealer, leveler resin, or clear vinyl to protect the rhinestone layer and adhesive.
• Keep your painting away from heat and direct sunlight. We recommend avoiding temperatures above 86°F (30°C).
• Keep the instruments and leftover rhinestones away from children and pets.
