Round or square?
Both create beautiful artwork. The difference comes down to the look and feel you prefer.
Round drills
Easier to place and slightly more forgiving, round drills leave tiny spaces between each diamond for a softer, textured appearance.
- Beginner friendly
- Easy, forgiving placement
- Soft textured finish
Square drills
Square drills sit flush against one another, creating a seamless mosaic effect with a crisp, highly detailed finish.
- Seamless, gap-free appearance
- Highly detailed finish
- Great for experienced crafters

Diamond painting vs paint by numbers.
Both are relaxing guided crafts. Here's the practical difference.
Quick questions.
Everything you need to know before placing your first diamond.
Is diamond painting hard to learn?
No. If you can match a symbol to a number, you already have the basic skill. Most people understand the process within their first few minutes.
How long does a kit take to finish?
It depends on the canvas size, detail and how often you work on it. Smaller kits can take a few hours, while larger designs can become projects you enjoy over several days or weeks.
What comes in a kit?
A typical kit includes a printed adhesive canvas, diamonds, a diamond painting pen, wax and a sorting tray.
Are round or square drills better?
Neither is universally better. Round drills are generally more forgiving and beginner friendly, while square drills create a seamless mosaic-like finish.
Do I need artistic skills?
Not at all. The artwork is already printed and coded for you. Your job is simply to match each diamond to its corresponding symbol and place it on the canvas.
