What to do with a finished diamond painting?
Have you completed your diamond painting? It would be a shame to let it gather dust in a corner of your home after devoting so many hours to it! If you're unsure about what to do with your masterpiece, here are some suggestions to help you thoroughly enjoy it while also showcasing your artistic abilities!
First and foremost, it's important to ensure that your canvas is in perfect condition and that no diamonds are missing. Because beads might become loose during the creation process, it's important to double-check that each diamond is in its proper spot. Examine your artwork under bright lighting and fix any loose diamonds using the tweezers provided in your Figured'Art kit. Once all of the diamonds are securely in place, seal your diamond painting to protect the diamonds from dust while preserving the beauty of the piece.
IDEA 1: FRAME YOUR DIAMOND PAINTING AND DISPLAY IT IN YOUR HOME
Now that your diamond painting is protected and sealed, you can frame it and proudly exhibit it in your home! Selecting the right frame is essential to enhancing your creation and fully appreciating its sparkling brilliance. Additionally, the area where you will display your diamond painting is crucial. Ensure that you choose a wall that is not overly cluttered and provides ample space to showcase your artwork. Avoid spaces exposed to direct sunlight, as this may lead to fading over time.
After you've decided on the ideal spot, it's time to think about how you'll arrange your artwork. If you only have one diamond painting, place it above a buffet, for example, to create an eye-catching focal point. If you have several pieces, arrange them to build a little art gallery! Experiment with the sizes and shapes of the paintings to create an enthralling combination.
Feel free to use lighting to emphasize the fine features and stunning brilliance of your diamond painting! Incorporating directional lights or spotlights can create nuanced reflections and highlight the subtleties of the diamond.
When you exhibit your diamond painting in your house, you are changing it into a personal masterpiece that expresses your style and passion, rather than merely displaying a piece of art. It will not only allow you to fully appreciate your hard work, but it will almost certainly garner accolades from your guests!

If you don't want to hang your diamond painting, why not repurpose it into a new DIY project? Allow your creativity to go wild as you explore imaginative and unique ways to use your diamond painting artwork. Here are some ideas to get you started:
Appliqued pouch
Make a personalized pouch with your diamond painting. Cut a section of canvas to size and glue or sew it to the front of a pencil case or makeup bag. This will add sparkle and character to your items.

Glistening coasters
Craft dazzling coasters by incorporating elements from your diamond painting. Cut out your favorite sections and affix them onto cork or acrylic coaster bases. This will add glamour to your table while also protecting the surfaces.
Sparkling bookmark
Fashion shimmering bookmarks by cutting out shapes or strips from your diamond painting. Attach them to the end of a string or ribbon to create unique bookmarks that add a touch of sparkle to your reading.
A magnet
Glue your diamond painting to a magnetic sheet and cut it into the right shape to make it into a magnet. This will result in the creation of a magnetic board that you can easily attach to your refrigerator or a magnetic wall board.
Create a diamond storage box
Why not create a unique and sparkling box that reflects your love of diamond painting? Once you've securely glued your finished diamond painting to the box, you'll have a one-of-a-kind and customized storage for your beads. This allows you to keep your tools organized while enjoying the sparkle of your diamond painting every time you open the box.
When you let your imagination go wild and apply your diamond painting in unexpected ways, you breathe fresh life into your work. Allow your imagination to lead your creative process, and have fun adding a sparkle to your regular life!
