I prefer Diamond Art Club because I don’t like rounds.

Thank you sooo much. There are so many different painting companies. I am a perfectionist & really want my first painting to look good enough to hang immediately as it will be a gift.

My pleasure! Go with DAC or Diamond Dotz and you will have a great finished result along with enjoyable process.

Such a detailed and informative video! I totally agree with your double first place choices! Something tells me you are a perfectionist which I can very much relate to! Thank you for posting this ❤️

Thank you, Susan! I just want to know what I pay $$$ for - as long as the kit is of a high quality (which includes canvas/drill quality, with a poured glue) and the kits turn out detailed, I am definitely ready to be working on such kits.

This is exactly what I was hoping to find! Thank you for your detailed video and for the great recommendations!

Thank you, Cathy! I hope this video will help people understand what to look for in a diamond painting kit when purchasing since there's so much choice nowadays but very few have the crucial criteria to make it a pleasure to work on and get an amazing, detailed result.

I'm a new subscriber and I have to say thank u that ur videos are a decent length and not an hour and a half long. Love it

Thank you and welcome to the channel! I'm trying to make the videos as laconic and informative as possible! I'm glad you liked this format 😀

I enjoyed listening to you about each one of the companies. I have ordered from Amazon, which wasn’t bad diamonds paintings. I have a diamond dotz which is beautiful . I just finished this small diamond painting from TEMU, didn’t look like the picture. You definitely get what you pay for. I have just ordered one diamond painting from DAC. I am looking forward to doing this diamond painting. I have a lot of friends that will only order from DAC. I will look forward to seeing more of your videos.thank you so much.

Thank you so much, Anna Maria! The brands do matter in diamond painting more than the stores they are bought from and for now, these are the brands that have the best quality dps. I'm very happy you got a kit from DAC - their items are exceptional! I'm sure you will enjoy working on their designs☺️

Thank you ! I’m new to diamond painting and your information really helped me. ❤️

Thank you, Anna Maria! I am very happy the video was informative!

I would give Diamond Art Club first place over Diamond Dots just for what they include in each kit. Both kits give you wax, a stylus, a tray, and of course the drills. But DAC also includes washi tape that you can use to frame the piece and to section off work areas, both of which will help you keep you lines neat. the second thing DAC includes that DD doesn't are multi-placers so that you can place up to four drills at once. DAC also includes a sticker that matches the color key for each drill color, which is really nice if you want to work from baggies (also included!) or a bead storage system. With their square drill kits, DAC also gives you a pair of tweezers to help you move/remove drills if needed.

Thank you so much Nat for making this video. As the craft becomes more popular and companies are listening to what their customers want, many are upgrading their kits frequently, so it's nice to have a recent review of what the best ones out there are! I loved what you said about artist vs. computer rendering of the images, this is the most important thing in my mind too! I wondered why all my small DACs looked amazing when much larger canvases from other companies were not so impressive. I'd love to see a video about which companies have artist renderings. Thanks again!

Thank you so much for doing this, it’s so helpful, I’m in the uk so I’m not sure which kits I could get apart from diamond dozt. Do you recommend sealing them as I’m reluctant to do so, but if it’s recommended then I shall do so. I’m working on my first piece from diamond dots which is the peacock 💗

Thank you! Crystal Art kit / Craft Buddy (2nd place in my rating) is a British company. They are amazing! Diamond Art Club ships internationally for free with 75$ purchase. As to the sealing - no. I never seal kits since they loose the individual sparkle of the drills. I frame them behind the glass.

Thanks
