Diamond painting is one of the most popular crafts today, perfect for those looking to relax while creating beautiful works of art. It involves placing small, shiny pieces (called diamonds) onto an adhesive canvas, following a color-coded pattern similar to mosaics or cross-stitching.

- An adhesive canvas with a preprinted design.
- Colorful diamonds.
- A special pen for placing the diamonds.
- Trays to organize the diamonds.
- Wax or glue to pick up the diamonds.
Diamood canvases come with all the basic tools we mentioned, plus the following extras:

- Metal tweezers to pick up special diamonds.
- A tube to store and transport your work.
- Wax paper to cover your canvas so the glue doesn't get ruined.
