    Always like to listen to advise from someone who has been diamond painting for an extended period of time 😂. No I’m not making fun; just saying sometimes experience is better giving instruction and you can sometimes learn something new. So I’ll jump in on an instructional video even though I have some experience (about 3 yrs. now) Thank you for taking the time. Peace and love abide with you 💕

    Тут от производителя еще зависит. Да, хорошо, когда просто символы, они прекрасно закрываются стразами, главное ровно их ставить, а если кругами отмечено, то это наоборот мешает, хотя они вроде как хотели нам помочь 😊
    Также встречались наборы, где под светлыми стразами производитель делает пропечатку темным цветом, тогда совсем беда может быть...

      Practice using a small amount of diamonds in the tray and flicking your wrist to adjust them. I think it's a skill that is mastered over time.
