Hello friends!
Welcome to a review and how-to demo tutorial for Diamond Art Club's new refillable pen, which is included with their new basic toolkits. I've seen a lot diamond painters asking for tips on how to use these new pens and their features, and after having used these pens on a few of my diamond painting projects, I wanted to share some tips and tricks with you today.
Note: This is the first iteration of these pens - DAC has said that they're planning to roll out an updated putty formula, as well as metal single tips. Also, please be sure to send any feedback you might have on their products, so they're able to hear from a wide variety of crafters and take that feedback into account.

I love that DAC is introducing fresh ideas! For me, the pen is not the right fit because I prefer angled tips, but this is definitely the rolls royce of toolkit standard pens.

@bettinapauline 25 дней назад

I ordered my first 2 paintings with the new tools. Since I saw you showing it. I love the concept. Only I find the pen very slippery, especially summer ( sweaty hands) so I dropped the pen a few times, which meant that the diamond also fell everywhere. Maybe a squishy or a bit other material is a few lines to hold the pen better. I noticed the plastic bags are really hard to open, without scissors I could not open it. Otherwise it’s great. I am in Germany and may not know exactly the correct word. Also thank you for your code, that way I got a new mini dazzle and beautiful painting together, no postage charges. ❤thank you

This is great. Currently doing my first project with this pen. Pros - great for this confetti heavy piece because I am doing more single placing than my usual style. I’m spending way less time tweaking putty. The pen is comfortable in my hand. Con - putty sticking to the canvas. Ugh. Con - Having to use tweezers or old style pen for tweaking position of drills. Pro - overall, speeds up single placing for me. Con - slows me down because I’m more of a multi placer. I haven’t had to refill the pen yet, so I found that part of your tutorial really helpful. When the time comes, I’ll know what I’m getting in to. Overall, I really like the concept, and it’s working better for me as I learn its quirks. The biggest issue is I’m swapping pens all the time when I need to fix something. Thanks for the tutorial.

Du könntest statt eines mehrfach setzter, einen Korrektur einzel setzter hinten auf setzen, dann musst du nicht den stift wechseln.

@denfield631 24 дня назад

I love the sound it makes when it release the drill but there is no getting around the fact that you can more clearly see the drill for precision placing with the old basic wax pen.

@elizabethwarman9028 25 дней назад

Hi Katie, I have ordered two new kits, so I will let you know how I like the pen. Which looks like an Epi pen to me.

@berniceetheridge6500 3 дня назад

Yea I have tried the new diamond art putty pen. It took a little time getting used to it, but you are correct in terms of using the pen straight up rather than slanted to the side. It does last longer than the wax. I like it so far. But I do miss the metal tips in order to straighten my drills.

@carissascraftsthings8427 24 дня назад

Thank you. Glad they are making upgrades. Did see they have a new one with a metal tip that looks like their glitter pens so am excited for those

@bonnienortherntexas8752 26 дней назад

I've been using pick me up pens for years and I have to say I LOVE this new pen. It's a lot better than the Silhouette pens because of the hole on the end for a multi placer. Also, I have no issues with the putty getting stuck on the canvas or drills. I found that less is better. I twist the bare minimum out. Anyway I absolutely love this pen and will be collecting so I can have different multi placers available on the ends and ready to swap out when needed.

Thanks for this tutorial Katie! Just received a new kit today, with the upgraden toolkit. I am willing to try this, though I am not a real putty fan. So, this was very helpful to me! Love from the Netherlands, Willeke

Hello Katie. Thanks so much for this video. I haven't used the new pen yet but I have been hoping to see a video from you showing how to reload the pen. So, thank you.

I love these new pens. It picks up ABs really well. They are much better than the old glitter straight line pens. Feels good in the hand. Thanks for the review.

@PamperedWithDiamonds 25 дней назад

Great tips. Thank you!😊

@ellenharris705 23 дня назад

Hey Katie nice demo on the new pen. I had very similar experience as you did. The past weekend has been a bit warmer and my hands were warm when testing and I just found the putty coming out was extra sticky and stringy. I rarely use the tools in the kits as I have my favorite pens and waxed. I’m glad to hear the heart wax may not be gone for good as that is my staple for my metal multiplacer but may give it more of a try for my single placing. Thanks for sharing.

Love, love, love this pen!! I'm in the middle of doing a different picture and when I rec'd the new kit I noticed the new pen so I opened the kit and am using it to finish my other picture. I have been using a modified "Pick-me-up" pen that you twist to release more putty but I modified it with adding a metal tip to the end cause their top is to big. You couldn't get into those small spaces. But I loved it cause you didn't have to stop and reload the putty (pink stuff) but the putty in that tool stuck to the AB diamonds and leave residue behind, so I would have to use a tweezers to place those. So the big test with the new pen was: Will the tip fit into a single space that's surrounded by diamonds...✔️ It does! And will it pick up AB diamonds without leaving a bunch of putty stuck to it....✔️yes it does! The only thing I would change is getting a metal tip for more length and strength. PS Love the new tray too.

Hi Katie thanks for your review unfortunately I'm not a fan of this pen or their putty. I could not go back to a plastic pen/plastic tips. I think it's great they upgraded the pen though😊

@jessicameriwether2218 21 день назад

I love the new pen! I am mainly a single place and have just started to dabble in multiplacing. The most trouble I have are with round drills 😢

@suwa9519 26 дней назад

👍 danke für das zeigen, wie man den stift nach füllt.

@janineswauger 24 дня назад

Super helpful! I am really wondering about using Pure Bliss putty in there. If you've tried another brand putty in it would love to hear how that turned out!

@belara2218 26 дней назад

Its really easy to remove the whole putty. You just need to twist the tweezers inside the tip and it will start to stick onto tweezers and you can remove all putty completely clean out of the tip. Do't need to soak or extra tools for it. I did the post about the exchange on the DAC Vip group and as mentioned there already, this pen with wax instead putty works just perfect for AB's :)

i want one .. new to it but i know i need that. I should have watch you tube or something before i ran out and got the very many diamond art paints that i got but in the future I'll know where to buy thanks

@BonnieLou86 25 дней назад

I think the new pen is a great idea but DAC should maybe develop a stainless steel version of it (for sale) with interchangeable designs of the pens. They would no doubt last a lifetime and cut down on excess plastic waste of the plastic pens 😊

@RioCharmandTucker 19 дней назад

So I followed this tutorial and how did you twist the pen to get to the putty out at 1:44 mine is tight and no matter how hard I twist it won’t budge

@Wendy13069 26 дней назад

Great idea but just not as fun as collecting some of the beautiful pens being made! I’m also a heavy presser so not sure these will work for me.

@Poodlepaws44 23 дня назад

Would the multiplacer end of these pens fit the thin metal multiplacers DAC makes?

@damndanneh_ 16 дней назад

Hello! Would these new pens take the twist in tips from DAC as well?

@AmberDP100 26 дней назад

I do think the putty is a little too sticky. Especially when I have to refresh it. I've lost some drills to it. It does last forever though, so I don't have the problem very much.

@jamieh8836 24 дня назад

i keep having issues where the putty leaves super tiny spots on the drills and then its nearly impossible to get off. i wipe it or try to use wax or putty to lift it. it just smears/gets sticky and then dulls the shine. so im scared to use it lol and its why im here. but i see she didnt have any of that issue 😭😖

@joalgustas6498 26 дней назад

Hi all! Thanks to Katie, I bought some putty from Randa’s and I love it. My question is, I feel like it doesn’t grab as strong after a while in a session. How often do you have to change the putty to make it work? I did an hour of diamond painting the other day and I had to keep reshaping it in my multiplayer as it took the shape of the drills after a while. Is that normal? This is my first time with putty, curious how long it lasts with multiplacing and how often you need to switch it out. Thank you!

@stephjbean 25 дней назад

Yeah, I feel that. I love the putty but it does gunk up fast and (I think) dry out between sessions. I do think it’s okay for it to take the drill shape, I mean you’re poking the drills. I take my tweezers and pull the putty around in the multiplacer. I think I’ve completely removed it only like three times in the 5ish months I’ve had it. Still think I would’ve been able to get a little more stick out it by roughing it up, but sometimes I just want fresh putty😅

@kiarab2006 23 дня назад

Is this pen in every set or only in de diamond dazzles?

@francesposnanski1515 26 дней назад

I am currently using the pen and I like it. My minor irritation is with the stopper on the tray. You have to align it a certain way to fit. In a segment where you switch many colors, it is annoying.

@PurpleWillowArts 26 дней назад

Could you use the putty to load the multi placer as well?

@stephjbean 25 дней назад

I was wondering that too

@DiamondDottingDe 25 дней назад

Yes! That’s how I’ve used it.

@clarencebyrum7098 26 дней назад

Great review, but I have to say that it's great pen but the plastic tip will not hold up if u r heavy handed

@cathy-lynncarden7815 26 дней назад

I wish DAC allowed a no kit option. I don't want to deal with this putty. I don't want to have to touch and mess with shoving the putty in. I hate the waste of just throwing new items away! This has actually had me canceling an order a few days ago.

@jamieh8836 24 дня назад

you could always join a de-stash group and give away with the price of shipping, or bring to a local school or art center

@amberlynn3712 20 дней назад

So you still need regular wax.

@janethefferan8681 26 дней назад

I am finding the new pen is far too chunky for my liking, I like a very very thin nib, I hope they can make the pens thinner 😊

@stephjbean 25 дней назад

This. This is exactly why I gave away the only specialized pen I had. My hand cramps and I can’t see where I’m placing

@ihatepeas4743 6 дней назад

Just opened a kit today with the new pen. I must admit, I’m not a fan. To me, it’s uncomfortable to hold. Also, no extra putty was included. Thank you for the demonstration.
