Take the Help of Multi-Tool for Single Colours

For blocks, which you need to fill with a single color, a multi-tool can be used which lessens the time for filling the blocks. It can take up a lot of your time if you fill one gem at a time. So for areas which need to be covered with a single gem, it is better to use the multi-tool which would pick up around 9 gems at a time and this would save a lot of your time.

Use Toothpick to Set the Gems

Though you would get a setting tool when you start diamond painting, however, the toothpick is a better way to set the gems back into their place. It is very handy when you have to nudge a gem back to its own place and can be used in place of a setting tool. So do not worry if you cannot find your setting tool.

Work In Small Sections to Avoid Confusion

It is better to concentrate on one section at a time so that you do not confuse yourself. There might be certain sections where you have to fill with colours which are nearly similar in shade. For those sections take three to four colours which are very different from each other and then complete them before touching the other similar colours. Moreover, peeling the clear sheet in smaller sections would keep the adhesive on the canvas intact and help in setting the gems quickly.

Take the Help of Dryer Sheets to Remove Static

The gems that are used in diamond painting are very light and often tend to stick together. Using different cut up sections of dryer sheets and wrapping the gems in it would prevent them from sticking together and easier to use them during painting.

Use Tapes to Prevent Canvas from Curling

Once you open canvas from the box. It would have a tendency to curl up. This would be a huge problem when you start your painting. So it is better to tape the ends of the canvas so that it does not disturb you during your painting.

Keep the Gems in Containers and Label Them

Separate the gems in different containers and label them accordingly so that you can easily find them during your painting. Label them according to their colours so that you do not confuse similar shades of gems.

Clean the Gums from the Gems

While sticking the gems on the canvas, the gum might often stick on the gems and this could lead to less shine in the gems. It is better to clean the gems with a wet cloth once the work is finished so that the gum is removed.
