UPDATE A PIECE OF FURNITURE WITH DIAMOND PAINTING TILES

The patchwork look is easy to achieve when you use a variety of finished diamond painting canvases – the bold colors and vibrant patterns complement one another and create a designer piece of furniture that is totally unique and a true standout.
LEARN THE EASY DIAMOND PAINTING TILING TECHNIQUE
There are four easy steps to make diamond painting tiles using your finished diamond art diamond painting canvases.
- Cut your diamond painting canvas into equal-sized squares or “tiles” using a rotary cutter and cutting mat. Do some simple measuring before you get started to determine what size your squares need to be. You can fudge the measurements of the last tiles if you need to, to make the squares fit evenly on your surface.
- Apply glue to the back of your tiles and spread it evenly using a paintbrush.
- Place the first tile as desired on your furniture surface and smooth in place.
- Repeat this process with your next tile, lining it up with the first tile as shown to completely cover the surface you’re tiling. That’s it!
