    Love the masking tape to help section off clear covers and cut evenly tip @12:45!
    Also, bonus, the side you have tape on keeps you knowing which side goes up so you don’t stick the wrong side if it gets flipped.

    I also use the clips. A small metal clip as I keep the bigger canvas rolled up as I work, and a bigger clip to hold it to my too small a work space, so it doesn't fall off while I am working.

    This was very informative. Love it that you actually showed examples of the questions. I will be checking out your how to custom video.
    Question. What is a good source for ordering substitute drills in AB, sparkle and glow in the dark in square and round?Do drills come in different sizes (I thought I heard this)?
    And how do I find out how many special drills I need so I can order them before my canvas arrives?
    Thank you for you great help. 🌞😀

    • @tinyworldsofwonder
      @tinyworldsofwonder  4 роки тому +1

      Hi, Angelique! Great questions! My favorite sources for special drills is dpwithsparklers.com. 😀 Tina has a great selection in a lot of colors. Rounds and squares tend to be different sizes - square drills are usually 2.5 mm and round drills are generally 2.8 mm. The only exception I know of is Treasure Studios Art, who uses smaller round drills. The specialty drills from Diamond Dotz are also 2.8 mm, so those can be an easy local option for round drill canvases as well. If you know what color you want to substitute on your canvas, sometimes your inventory sheet will list a quantity for each symbol. I rarely substitute all of one color however. I find that a small scattering of special drills here or there is the most effective. That’s just my opinion though; some people love to go whole hog and I fully support that! 😀

      I have also heard of using spare drills in those plastic clear round ornaments that open on the top. Then just pour in the color you want like all red diamonds or all green or mix them up. Whatever color you want. I am going to try that this Christmas.

      Hi, Lorri! That is Sleeps with Butterflies by artist Margaret Morales available from DIY Moon Shop. Margaret's artwork is beyond beautiful! DIY Moon offers "special treatments" with special drills you can add in, but I think the ones I show in this video are actually Diamond Dotz Freestyle Drills, available at Joanns and online. There are some sellers of specialty drills too, such as Diamond Painting with Sparklers and DiamondPaintingDrills.com. 😁

    Good Morning. Thank you for great tutorial. My question is about drill pens. Should I be cleaning out the tip prior to every reload (single & multi spacers)? Do I have to replace the tips? I've been struggling with PaddyWaxx. I've been using the scented one and I seem to have to reload wax frequently. Also, I have a lot of wax left on the drill when I place them. I've watched your video on PaddyWaxx, but was wondering if you have learned/perfected anything since making the video. Thanks so much!

    • @tinyworldsofwonder
      @tinyworldsofwonder  4 роки тому

      Hi, Tammie! I don't typically clean out my pen tip between each refill - just when I get to the point where the new wax won't stick to the old wax anymore. I only replace the tip if it's really bent up, but I can go through a lot of canvases before that happens. Robyn designed the original PaddyWaxx for the multiplacer, so after more experience I think the Super Sticky is far superior for single placing. I do have quite a bit of success with the original too, but I've adapted my touch quite a bit. I drill very lightly now - it reduces residue and seems to make the wax last longer. I do suggest investing in the Super Sticky if you prefer to do a lot of single placing. :) Wishing you all the best!

    Hi Jessica,
    I'm really trying hard to order public domain or licensed. You mentioned Ever Moment which I love. Is it ok to order a piece from them that is public domain? For example a piece that was painted prior to 1926? I'm too lazy to order a custom and like to order ready made, thoughts?
    Also, do I really need to seal diamond paintings, I never have. Finally, do you ever put your DPs under glass when you frame? Thank you in advance.

    • @tinyworldsofwonder
      @tinyworldsofwonder  3 роки тому

      Hi, Karin! That is so awesome, and I really admire you! People have different views on ordering public domain canvases from companies that also sell unlicensed work (and all are valid)! I tend to think that companies with all of this infrastructure set up already are going to make diamond paintings regardless, so they might as well use it to produce public domain images so they can feed their families too. I don't have any issue buying old masters/public domain images from absolutely any seller because really everyone wins - no artists are financially harmed by the production of public domain images AND the employees of those companies get to earn a living. Does that make sense? :) That is just my personal opinion of course! :)

    Hi,are the drill colors interchangeable between different companys ??

    • @tinyworldsofwonder
      @tinyworldsofwonder  Рік тому

      Hi there! If you have a kit that lists DMC numbers for each color, these will be more or less interchangeable, but the symbols are not. For example, DMC 310 is black, and with a few dye lot variations, you should be able to use this drill on any canvas that also charts 310, but the symbol each company prints on the canvas for black is likely different. I hope that makes sense!

    Hi I am fairly new to diamond painting and yes I love it and addicted. One of my DP pages on Facebook suggested your channel so here I am. Wanting to know how you tell the difference between poured glue and double sided tape when I am ordering a canvas? Does it say in the description? BTW I am definitely learning lots by watching you. Thank you 😊

    • @tinyworldsofwonder
      @tinyworldsofwonder  4 роки тому

      Anne Burgess Hi, Anne! Welcome!! Sometimes it can be hard to tell when you’re ordering a canvas whether it’s tape or glue. If it doesn’t specify in the listing, canvas pictures can sometimes be a tip off. Poured glue usually has a transparent cover, and tape usually has an opaque paper cover. Sellers usually use exclusively one or the other. I hope that helps a little. Great question!

    • @annesergio2471
      @annesergio2471 4 роки тому

      Thanks so much. That actually answers my other question; why some canvases have opaque plastic and some clear. I don't like the opaque only because I like to see the pattern while I work.

    • @tinyworldsofwonder
      @tinyworldsofwonder  4 роки тому

      Anne Burgess Awesome! I like the clear covers because in my climate the glue lays flat, whereas on the opaque covers I tend to get some rippling quite a lot of the time. 😀
