Hi, diamond painting friends! Today's video is a special request from a wonderful viewer about using multi-placers to speed up work on large sections of color when diamond painting. If you're an experienced diamond painter, be sure to share your favorite multi-placer tips in the comments below!
There are many "right" ways to work on diamond paintings, and I don't claim to be an expert, but I hope you find today's video helpful. The most important thing is to relax and enjoy the process!
Here are links to some of the tools I use in today's video:

(Disclaimer: I work with Distracted by Diamonds on a limited basis sourcing artwork and working on artist licensing. I do not receive any compensation for my reviews, videos, or recommendations, although Robyn is a friend!)
The artist featured in today's canvas is the marvelous Matt Lyon! Check him out here:

Happy diamond painting!

I like the “real” videos! Especially for us newbies! Watching some makes us wonder what we are doing wrong as they appear to be so perfect!

@zainylainy1 Год назад

I’ve watched a few of these videos and yours was the best. At least it made the most sense to me! And you have a very good voice! Not to fast, not to slow and a good quality to it!

Thanks for this tutorial, really helpful for a scarey cat when it comes to using a multi-placer. You say you placement isn't perfect but it's the straightest I've seen on RU-vid! Very impressive.

I think multi-placing is scary too! I am really glad you found this helpful though! I do have the added perk of getting to film multiple times, right? I assure you there was a blooper reel for this one. LOL!

Game changers galore!!! My goodness totally took my Diamond Painting to a new level. The current project am working on has LOTS of dark drills across the canvas and this helped So Much! The tip about the parchment paper got off your other video and helped with the constant frustratingly sticking to the canvas. Lol thought was going to loose my mind. Also was wondering what the straight edge tool was for and that too helped tremendously. Did watch the confetti video and that will help as this painting as a lot of it. Like the idea of taking small sections at a time, less overwhelming. Thank you so much! Appreciate your tips, your videos and you :)

@tinyworldsofwonder Год назад

I'm so thrilled that these videos were helpful to you!! Thanks for stopping in to let me know. I appreciate it! :)

@leighgifford4050 4 года назад

Thank you!!! I started doing this and realized I can pick up my drills very much off center, and the more you can see your drills, the easier it is to place them down! I tried one of the tape/straight edge placers (where you put the double stick tape on) and found out, even though I can see much more of the drills, the stability is lost; so they wobble if they don’t go down perfectly in their spot. Really love your tips and tricks! Thank you!

I am new to all of this and I want to thank u for the tips. I have a canvas where the squares r very large and multi placement is hard. So I end up having to replace them in the center of the squares. I ordered a three multiplayer to help with this problem. Again thank u.

@tinyworldsofwonder 2 года назад

That is absolutely my least favorite diamond painting problem to have. It makes placement so frustrating! I hope you're getting through it okay! :)

@ixchellovesrainbows4965 3 года назад

I struggle with multi placing rounds, any tips please?

@tinyworldsofwonder 3 года назад

Me too! I think angling the pen and lining up the drills against the tray ridges helps, but I find that the larger space between round drills makes them more difficult to multiplace well. I often have to go in and adjust one by one with my single placer. Rolling down top to bottom helps too! 🥰

@diannanatale1263 Год назад

Hi! Where can I get plastic tips? Thank you Dianna 🙂

@tinyworldsofwonder Год назад

Hi, Dianna! I would try Etsy or Amazon. Amazon is probably cheaper but may require you to purchase all kinds of bundled stuff you don't need. :)

@mscarrie10 Год назад

Do you do different sections with multiple trays and drills or do you do one color at a time for the whole canvas. I'm new and it's taking forever it's seems to do one painting.

@tinyworldsofwonder Год назад

Hi, Carrie! I usually do one section at a time and complete all the colors in that area. There are a lot of color changes, but since I don't have a dedicated work space, I end up having to pack up my stuff really often. :) I've definitely gotten faster with time.

This video was helpful. I am having a little trouble filling my 3 placer with wax. It doesn't seem to last very long. I am using the wax that came with my painting, which is the red square of wax. Do you have tips for filling the tips or cleaning the tips?

@tinyworldsofwonder 4 года назад

Hi, Kim! I have the same struggle with the pink wax! I switched to PaddyWaxx (sold on Etsy), and that lasts longer for me. I have also hear that people really like Blue Tack. (The stuff you use to hang posters on the wall.)

Hi, Nicky! I have a video on my channel on how I seal canvases if you feel like looking through past videos just a bit. :) I typically don't seal if I'm framing my paintings behind glass, but that video goes into detail on the method I use when I do. :) I hope it helps!

@myrah3071 3 года назад

Great video, definitely picked up some valuable tips. I am curious - I just bought some paddywax and while I like it, it seems like sometimes the diamonds stick to the wax better than the painting! I'm working on a diamond club painting, and just wondered if you had any ideas. Thanks!

@tinyworldsofwonder 3 года назад

Hi there! I have the same problem on occasion. Sometimes my PaddyWaxx is more sticky than my glue - especially some poured glue! I like to get the wax a little “dirty” by dabbing it onto my scrubby old jeans or sweatpants, or in place of that a cotton cloth works too. This seems to take a little bit of the tack off. 😀

Not silly, Lisa! Yes, you will have gaps around all your circles on a round, and that is normal. :)

@tinyworldsofwonder 4 года назад

Those are just the worst, aren't they? I luckily haven't had many canvases with popping drills. I had one and it frustrated me so much that ended up giving up on it! :( On that canvas, I did try a thick coat of Mod Podge Super Gloss, and it seemed to keep the drills in place although I lost some of the sparkle.
