Craft & Create: Diamond Art

I asked Copilot "What is diamond art?" and this was the response:

"Diamond art, also known as diamond painting, is a creative hobby that combines elements of cross-stitch and paint-by-numbers. Instead of using paint, you apply tiny, shiny resin beads (often called "diamonds" or "drills") onto a pre-glued, color-coded canvas to create a sparkling mosaic artwork

Here's a quick overview of how it works:

1. Canvas: The canvas has a printed design with symbols that correspond to different colored diamonds.
2. Diamonds: These are small, faceted resin beads that come in various colors.
3. Tools: You'll use a special pen or tweezers to pick up the diamonds and place them on the canvas.

Diamond art is popular because it's easy to learn, relaxing, and produces beautiful, shimmering results. It's a great way to unwind and create something decorative for your home or as a gift."

Diamond art supplies can be found in many places- Amazon, Joann, Michael's, Walmart, etc.

The following list is linked to examples from Joann. These are just examples.
