How to Start Diamond Painting For Beginners?

Diamond painting is now more popular than ever. If you've ever had to describe what it is to someone (or if this is the first time you've heard of it), the first reaction you have might be one of slight confusion. Are they real diamonds? Is there actual paint involved, in the traditional sense? We (Heartful Diamonds) are here to answer all the questions, and more!

Painting with a diamond kit is simple and perfect for anyone looking to pick up a new artistic hobby.

Starting a new hobby can be overwhelming sometimes. Everything seems foreign and you never know if you’re on the right path. New hobbies should be exciting, not discouraging. That’s why we made this post.

We’ll lay out everything you need to know about diamond painting from the supplies to the best beginners’ diamond painting techniques. Here’s everything you need to know about how to do diamond paint.

Step 1: Take All The Diamond Painting For Beginners Out Of The Package

Every Diamond Painting comes with everything needed to get started. Make sure you have a list of all the items in your kit: canvas, set, diamonds, wax pad, toolkit, and tweezers.

Step 2: Place Your Diamond Painting Canvas On A Flat Surface 

Place your canvas on a flat, smooth surface. These tables are great for kitchen and dining rooms. This canvas comes already in Diamond Painting for Beginners kits or Diamond Painting for Kids packages.

Step 3: Choose A Color Or Symbol, And Pour The Diamonds Into A Tray

Decide which section of the Diamond Painting canvas you wish to paint. Place the desired diamonds in the tray and then shake the tray gently. To ensure that the diamonds are upright, shake lightly.

Step 4: Apply Wax To The Tip Of Your Diamond Pen

Remove the plastic film from the pink wax pads. Apply a little wax to your Diamond Pen's tip. The static cling of the wax and the wax combine to create a magnet that acts almost like a Diamond magnet.

Step 5: Place Each Of The Diamonds In The Appropriate Square On Your Canvas

Each color of diamond corresponds with a particular symbol or character on the canvas. To find out which symbol corresponds with each color, check the legend on the side of your canvas. DMC threads denote colors. Start painting by removing the protective film into small pieces.

Step 6: Continue The Process Until Your Shimmering Diamond Art Is Achieved!

You will create a beautiful DIY Diamond Painting by working your way through the canvas, one diamond at a time. You can extend the life of your Diamond Painting by sealing it before you display it. You were not meant to enjoy diamond paintings from afar. Take a moment to admire the beauty.
