Diamond embroidery, or diamond painting, is a mix between traditional cross stitch and mosaic. It is about placing small rhinestones using pliers on a glued canvas. The latter is printed with an image made up of pixels that you have chosen upstream on the site. Each pixel should be replaced by a diamond. This is an ideal activity for channel energy of your children (or yours). It requires concentration and will improve coordination. Then it’s up to you to frame your pretty canvas to hang it or give it away!
3) get started with number painting
You don’t need to be a great artist to practice this type of painting, which guides you in the choice of colors thanks to the numbers on the canvas. A number corresponds to a color and it is therefore impossible to choose the wrong one.
In addition, if you want to change colors or choose your own style, it is quite possible. The advantage is the lines already drawn. So all you have to do is pick up your brush, follow the lines and relax! Choose your landscape, your favorite animal, or even your favorite work of art and let yourself be carried away.
