Pressing tiny sparkling resin facets onto a sticky, numbered canvas one by one to reveal a shimmering mosaic picture — a relaxing, meditative craft with satisfying, glittering results.

The Essentials

  • Work in small sections at a time, peeling back only a bit of the plastic film so the adhesive doesn't collect dust
  • Sort drills into a tray or organizer by number before starting, since hunting for the right color mid-session slows you down enormously
  • Use the wax applicator tip and press straight down on each drill, rather than at an angle, for cleaner placement
  • Press the finished area firmly with a roller or flat tool once a section is filled, to seat all the drills evenly
  • Work under bright, even lighting, since diamond painting symbols and colors are hard to distinguish in dim light
