It may be easier to paint the edges before glueing the painting...
this looks great!!! probably the easiest way ive seen for framing diamond art!!!
Cindy Thompson Thank you! I hope it helps. I used to hate doing water color paintings cause all the money that goes into framing them up for art shows.
Never thought of using stretch canvas. That painting is so pretty. The Black did make it pop.💖☺️
Glad to know how to do this. Never would have thought of it! Much better than framing I think!
I would, seal the diamond painting first, trim the edges, then paint the canvas where needed and all you do is glue it on and done. Less handling of the canvas too.
You certainly could. But I find that the sealant can crack if it is handled too much or when you bend it to spray the glue. So I wait till it dries or dont seal at all.
Your grand babies are precious.
That looks great! I had no idea how to frame it, so thank you!
You are so welcome! Glad I could help!
Loved both of those pics. Great job!
So happy I watched your video first, Love how you do this framing!! I watched others where they fold them over and wasn't crazy about that. Professional framing is so expensive and since I also paint I have a ton of Stretched canvas in the house.Guess what I am going to be doing from now on. Thanks for a great Video!
You are so welcome! When I thought of it, I was like, thats the simplest thing to do! I was so surprised no one had thought of it before me.
I am so glad I found your tutorial on Framing your DP. Thank you.
Magda Rivera Your very welcome! :)
Thank you so much for this wonderful idea, but I would paint it before glue it to the canvas also to paint any white edges that may show up, thanks again
Great educational video... exactly the information I needed 👍
Pachabel Thank you! I hope it helps you. Hope also that I am not hard to follow because I am so ADD I cant ever finish my sentences lol.
Glad I found your channel. You did a good job 💖. Your visitors are so cute 💖
Diamond painting with Pearl Thank you!
They look great thanks for the idea I have a few painting already made and they are under my bed thanks for sharing
Glad you like them!
That looks awesome.. I love that painting so cute ❤
Thank you so much 😀 I cannot pass up such sweet pictures!
Think I will try this on my next painting. I have been using wood frames with glass which can get rather pricey on the larger paintings. DAC guarantees their drills for a lifetime, so I htink I will try my next one on canvas. I like the comment of painting the edges first for better coverage.
Yep I know! I am so inpatient, and should have painted it first. Im so backwards! LOLOL!
I found this video today. It is very informative. Thanks!
Your so very welcome Valerie! Thank you for watching!
I paint the 4 outer sides and the top in about 1/2". Let it dry and on the canvas back, I put strips of the 3M double sided foam tape. Peel and put on the canvas
Oh wow! Great idea!!
Thanx for your fantastic video,I love this idea and it looks fantastic.Thanku...
It’s a great idea to exhibit a Diamond Painting. 😍
It came out beautiful.
Thank you!
Great video. Thanks for sharing! I had a problem with hearing some if it but it was very helpful and a great idea!
THank you! I am sorry for the sound issue. It was on my ipad before I got my vlog camera. I did another updated one and its somewhere on the channel. LOL!
Omg thank you so much for such a detailed video !!!
Your very welcome.
I’m late to the party but want to tell you that I enjoyed this video very much. This is a really nice way to “frame” a DP and it is helpful to see your process. I also love your hands story… NO shame in having hard working hands that produce happiness! Also, that stuffed tiger and the kids are so sweet. I have a stuffed elephant about that size that I move between my couch and LR floor. It is now like an elephant skin rug as my rear end has flattened it over the years 🤣 I am now in my early 40’s and still Iove it!
Aww! Your never late with me! ~ We are kindred spirits, as Anne of Green Gables would say. (Hope you have seen that movie series) Anyway, the grands have taken scissors to the poor Tiger and its shaved on its face. SMH! My daughter has adopted it and wont let me throw the poor thing away. LOLOL! I now have a GIANT Bluey Plush that stays in my bedroom and NOOOOOO one is allowed to touch it LOL!!!
Hahaha at the shaven tiger, bluey plushie and your daughter adopting the tiger! 🤣🤪
Very nice! It turned out great 😊
Wow I live about 20 minutes from Kingsport. Crazy to hear a RUclips I watch talk about where I’m from!!
Kayleigh Myers Really Awesome! I actually watch a Church service from Kingsport TN! EMAUS Baptist church on FB. Preacher Phil Kidd does live sermons from there. He used to preach our Christmas Revivals down here in Greenville SC. ITs great to hear from you and love going to TN!!
Hi Im Solange from Brasil, sorry about my wrong english 😊
I loved this idea, I Will do this in my diamond painting, but I Will painting The Black part before, in first.
I think is easier
Thank you for your generosity😊😘
Your exactly right! I got in a hurry, and have no patience lol! Thank you for taking the time to watch and let me know what you thought of it. I am so glad your here!
Another option for a finished DP 👍🏻👍🏻
Beautiful work
Thank u Becky 💓
After seeing yours canvas last time, I purchased it on Amazon
oh I answered you above like u had yet to purchase it. I sorry. LOL
I think doing the black painting before the painting is glued on would have been much easier!
YEp, Im just so impatient
@@MimsHowse I can certainly relate to that! :)
Thanks for this tutorial. I will try this for sure.
You’re welcome 😊
Thanks for helping me that’s amazing
Beautiful!!
I prefer this to stapling and stretching it over the canvas.
yep! Easy Peasy!
omg I really like this one. bright colors and cute painting.
Nice job!!! I have some DPs that need framing so I will use your method! TFS!!
loveswine2 Your welcome!
I started dropshipping for parrot products and it was going great till covid hit China where most of the suppliers are, the shipping times went crazy so I had to stop advertising, I've decided to order in bulk some good sellers and do my own toys for big birds, but these were offered to me, they were different specie of parrot, some beautiful macaw ones but I didn't put them up for sale because I had no clue what they were,..thanks for explaining them to us..
Yeh that covid mess is driving us all nuts! I hope it all works out for you. I am happy to help you when I can!
Nice job!!
Thanks Linda!
Very nice Painting the bonus was those beautiful Babies.
`
Aww! Thank you!
It turned out beautifully. Can you share which size you completed in this video.
It was 50x50
Nice work Mim.😊
Thank you! 😊
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Walmart has them in heir art section. I put my Chuck Pinson Sanctuary on it
Hi , I love the picture. What size is it and did you take round or square sooo cute ,but I would paint the frame before fixing thake picture on it. Great job anyway 👍👍
I used square, and it is a 50 x50 I do believe.Thank you so much for watching!
Sweet grandbabies
Thank you! I love my beebees!
Great video. Thank you. Btw I love soup too! Eat it everyday as well! ;)
It's so good!
I paint with the painting off. Then u could go up so far on the canvas, then lay it down.
I see the
Little girl looks a little orange. Maybe I can change my color to a more flesh color. Your DP looks beautiful.
I have seen it on other sites sometimes and it looked like they had fixed that jondice lol! So keep your eyes open for that but changing that would be a bit better.
If you put a part of your hand or even your little finger on the canvas will help hold the ruler straight when you cut!
LOL yep. I am fumble fingers!
Thank you, that helped a ton!!
You are very welcome!
Where did you get the dog diamond painting from? It’s gorgeous!!
Thanks, I have found your video very helpful. Could you please tell me the name of the spray you use for sealing the painting and also the site . on Ali Express . Have looked at some and can not find one where you can order a particular size, also they are expensive. Thanks again, you have solved a few problems for me.
Thanks Pat! I am so happy to have been a help to you. You can find the Diamond Painting here (mine is 60x60)

I usually do not seal them anymore due to loosing the shimmer of the diamonds.
The black was a good choice. Looks great.
I love that look so much that I started buying already black canvases~
If sealed good should be able to cut around the edge
That would be one way to cut the edges!
Hi Mim, love your videos. So helpful. I do need some help/clarification, if you don't mind. Do I seal the DP, then adhere to the canvas, paint the canvas, then use the UV spray as the finishing? Just not sure when to seal. I don't want to spray too many things on it that will take away the shine.. thanks
I have ordered some sealer that is specific for diamond paintings and the video will be up prob sometime next week. I am going out of town for a few days but will be back to try those out. With that said, I dont seal mine anymore since the first 2 I sealed with an artistic spray sealer caused the sparkle to go away. I haven't found any to keep from doing that. In this video, I should have painted the canvas before I glued it LOL! I was impatient and wanted to get right to the video. So, Paint first, Glue, let dry, then seal if your going to seal. I hope that helps. :) Thank you so much for watching and being here to encourage me!
@@MimsHowse thank you so much. Good to know about the sealer. I bought it yesterday at Michael's. I hope they let me return it. I look forward to your video. I'm new to your channel and wanted to know if you have any beginner videos- do's and don't, any helpful hints, tools and how to use them, etc.
@@MimsHowse also I bought the gorilla spray you use and I sprayed my canvas like you did in the video but my canvas is bigger then my painting so on some parts of the canvas you can see where the spray went to far. But on other parts the painting didn't have enough or any adhesive. My question is how do I spray the adhesive to make sure the painting area is covered without spraying the whole canvas? Should I spray the painting itself, then lay that on top of the canvas?
This is beautiful
Thank you so much for sharing will definitely try this x
Bless you
Does sealing your paintings dull, your drills? I normally only buy DAC paintings and I believe sealing will invalidate the warranty on them, therefore I have never sealed any of my paintings.
Thanks for this video! Went out and bought a few black canvases and I'm super excited to try this out! Does the Krylon Spray dull the painting any?
Just a tad. I have not sealed all my pictures. Only the ones that the drills were not sticking well.
Im glad it helped you! Love the black canvases!!
Just wondering how you frame diamond paintings that are not standard American measurements. Ex: those on Temu. How do you even find frames for them if the measurements are in metric? Do you or does anyone else have a video on how to do it? Thanks!
You would need to go find a frame that has a matt in it all ready cut to the dimensions of the DP. If not, then you would need to custom cut matts to the size of the DP picture edge, and let the excess around the DP stay behind the Matt. ORRR, just find the closest size stretched canvas and glue it like in the video. No worries about frames. Thank you for your question and watching! God bless you!
I would paint the canvas first before pitting the picture on.
Yep. I should have. I got ahead of myself I was so excited to do the video! LOL! THis is my older one. I have since updated the process on a newer video.
Lovely thank you, but think I would of done the painting before,
I totally understand. I usually do, but I got ahead of myself. LOL. I love the canvases at Hobby Lobby that already are gessoed black.
Where did you get that picture? It’s beautiful
Aliexpress but I think Annbuy had it now.
Hello please I have a question is it necessary to use glue after finishing the painting or can we finish the painting without using glue😊have a good and a nice days🌹
I only sealed my first 2 Diamond paintings, after that I never really did. I didnt like the way it made the diamonds not sparkle. I have not tried the specific diamond painting sealer that I have seen advertised. I should do a video on it. I have heard people only seal if the diamonds do not stick good, or pop off easy. I have had a really bad one that I got from an Aliexpress store that the grid was too small for the diamonds and the diamonds were weird sizes too. They popped out so much I wanted to burn the thing! lOL! It was the Peter Pan one I showed on the channel back a while. Thank you for watching!
thanks for your help have a greats and nice days everyone💜💜
Love this video... May I ask where you purchased this DP from and size. I would love to know how to find canvas size to fit completed DP bc they come in a vary of different sizes. I have 20 finished ones that I need to put on canvas.
I got it on Aliexpress. It is a 50x50 cm (They are in lock down over there in china for that awful corona virus plus the country is on vay cay because of it being Chinese New Year. If you order it will take about 2 months or more to get it. However, when they come back from holiday, they usually have sales. So watch for that. www.aliexpress.com/item/32880768409.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.27424c4dDZ1bgd
What is the glue your using please. I love this.
It is Gorilla Spray Glue but you can also use art spray glue from hobby stores. Thank you for watching! I also have done an updated one recently. ruclips.net/video/cDYOUOD9Hdw/видео.html
I would paint my frame 1st. Then put my painting on. Just saying 😊
Yep, I agree. This was my first video of the process I do have another newer one.
I love that picture. 💜💜
My mother gets the hand cyst thing. I'm wondering how some people get it and others don't.
Anyway, good video. I'll look around Amazon for a canvas. Maybe Blick's is still open too.
Hobby lobby online is good too. They even have black ones.
@@MimsHowse What I wound up doing is ordering a cubic painting kit from Wish, the Gorilla Glue from Amazon, and then I found the right frame size on eBay. I'll try Hobby Lobby next time. They're not by me but I liked shopping there on vacation. Thanks and God bless.
If you are close to a JoAnns Fabrics store they have several sizes of canvas. You can order online too.
Great video I’m new to DP and was wondering how to frame. Could the frame painting be done before? And would a small paint roller work just as well. Thank you it came out very nice
Thank you so much for watching! I think you sure could use a small roller to cut the time for painting the canvas before you are ready to glue it. I just got impatient LOL!
You need to turn up your volume I can't here you ... I've done this and It really works..
Yep, this is a major older video when I just started out using my Ipad to record with. I hadn't gotten a camera yet. But I have done a newer version just recently on my channel to update that. Thank you for watching and taking your time to give me feedback! We love feedback! Makes us lots better!
Newbie here! Love your tips! Would it be beneficial to paint the canvas sides first? My hands aren’t as steady as yours 😳. Thank you in advance!
Thank you for watching! So glad to meet you! The great thing about this idea is that there are no wrong ways to do it. Adapt it to the best you can do and go with it. :) Sometimes the glue can get on the painted areas and you will have to touch it up with paint but thats ok too!
@@MimsHowse thank you!! Since my last post, I managed to get half my project done and I love it!
Would it be easier to paint the sides first?
Yes if you want it to be another color. I got impatient and was too ready to film it. LOL! This is my older version when I was using my tablet to film so the sound is not as good. Here is the newer one.

I am on my IPad and cannot understand why RUclips will not show my new comments at all. I had one from Carissa about her trying the gorilla glue and it was not sticking for her. It is repositionable for a few minutes in case you do not get it centered you can fix it before it is non removable. Make sure you have shook the can a good good while. IF that still doesn’t work, you may have a bad can. This can has been a good one so if they are not consistent please let us know in the comments. There are others, just make sure they are non yellowing and safe for photos etc.
Mims Howse ok thank you
Thank you so much!! You made this look so easy!! Question: When did you seal it? I missed it as to whether you sealed it before gluing it or at the end?? Thanks again.
After it was glued to the canvas and had dried.
Hi can you tell me how this is holding up after a year because I was thinking of doing this with my diamond art paintings but will the glue turn it yellow like did it seep thru?
Hello Tiama!
I haven't noticed any seep through of yellowing so far. The Gorilla glue is supposed to be archival for photos so if it turns it yellow Ill be one mad mim! LOL!
Why would you paint it afterwords? Can you paint it before hand. Just asking because I shake sometimes. I can see me running over the diamond painting alot with the paint. I'm not that skilled
You sure can. I was just soooo excited to video it I realized that I should have before. LOL!
@@MimsHowse awesome thank you. ☺☺☺
Hi, has anyone seen an hey Arnold painting anywhere? I use stretch canvases all the time, but I paint the boarders first. I’ll probably get paint on the drills.
HUmm.. I will have to look for hey Arnold. If your looking on china sites they wont call them by name. Just cartoon figures etc most of the time. But I will look around for one. I loved Hey Arnold! STOOP KID and the Russian always askin for a sandwich! LOL! My son can sound just like him!
Thank you for this. What are the dimensions of you DP? And canvas. Thanks
Both the canvas and the painting is 50x50 cm.
(20 inches x 20 inches)
Did you really say " you can buy newspaper at e-bay if you need them" ??? 🤔🤣🤣🤣👍🏻
I probably meant Newsprint Paper on Amazon. I buy it from there that has no ink in bulk for raising my labrador pups from birth once the mom is no longer cleaning up after them. It is also useful for covering up areas you dont want to get paint or glue on. It comes in a 20+lb stack. however, we also use old dollar store shower curtains. I need to go back and watch it to see if that is what I said LOLOLOL! I must have been having major LUPUS BRAIN. Think one thing and out comes some other cray cray mess! LOL!
Wow... gorgeous... great info on the sealer... I have been noticing that my sealant, Mod Podge Super Gloss seems to be dulling over time does yours?
Hi Tia, I have yet to notice a dulling over time. I hope it doesn’t. There are a few I have not sealed yet.
I’ve used this spray gloss sealer on ceramics that I’ve painted with acrylic paint and haven’t had any yellowing even after years of being out on display. It’s a really good sealer, in my opinion. ☺️
@@candicejackson7474 Hi Candace. What brand spray gloss sealer are you using.
@@melodyc4607 Hi Melody. I have used Plaid brand mostly.
Have you tried stretched bars? Maybe cheaper terms of framing! Very pretty
I have not actually. I have always enjoyed the ready made ones.
Would be easy fold side to at and glue or staple gun
It probably would be ok if you can find a stretched canvas that is exactly the outer edge of the actual painting image. Thats the issue. Some factories fudge on the actual inside image size by making the whole canvas a 30x40 which makes that inside a bit smaller. Can get aggravating so I always err on the larger size if its not exact.
I was a picture framer for many years and was surprised by the way things were done, however the main thing that caught my eye was the hanging setup. The rings that are there for the wire were far too high, they should be a third of the way down the back of the picture ie if it measures 18", you measure down one third ie 6", just saying. Nice picture by the way.
Thank you so much for letting us know the official spot where the hangers go. I am self taught. :)
@@MimsHowse My pleasure
@@sallymcdonald502 Can you order a canvas (the wood frame and canvas she's using) to order? I mean can you get them in a certain size to match the dp painting size you're working on?
@@dalpz205 If it is a standard size, then yes you can get them online. If not, then it would have to be made to fit, And in that case it would be best just to have the diamond painting stretched straight onto the wooden frame.
@@sallymcdonald502 You mean wrap the painting around the edges. Sorry I'm not very familiar with framing. Will the frame shots do it for you?
can U use mineax to glue to to a canvas
Im not familiar with that product. Do tell!
I have some canvases. I used to paint a lot. I even have some that I just played with, which I’m going to use for my DP. Why not paint the canvas first, let it dry and then glue the DP? Then you don’t have to be as careful.
Yep, I was just impatient LOL!
Your kiddos are so cute!!
Thank you!
How do you know what size canvas to buy
I just pretty much wont get anything under the sizes you see in my videos. atleast 40 on one side. And that is for an up close picture. Anything with a lot lot lot of stuff in the picture the bigger you need to go. You can ask me in messenger on Facebook on my Mims Howse page what size if you need to. I will try to help.
Did you use a sealant?
I did on my first couple but after that I haven't. I dont like how it takes the sparkle away. I used an art spray fixative sealant when I did.
I have not started diamond painting but on Internet I see some look more sparkling than others. This one has nice glitter effect. Are they some special beads or do they all glitter like this?
Edit : Also what size is this?
Suraj Arya Hi! Thank you for watching. Yes some seem to be a bit more shiny that others. I haven’t really noticed which sellers are more shiny and some more dull. That is a great question for me to try to take note of. I could go back and see if there is a certain seller that has the better diamonds on the ones I have already done. I hope you give it a try, it is soooo fun and relaxing. Have a great day!
Hi,
The sparklest dp's I have found are Diamond.Dotz brand. Next to all my other dp's, there is a big difference.
@@horsesavvy8 ill grab some at Hobby Lobby to check em out! :)
do you seal the paintings before sticking them onto the canvas ?😅
After. I am afraid it will crack or mess up the seal around the diamonds if I move it and fold it up to spray the canvas.
Bye god bless
God bless you too!
What size is this canvas? i dont know if i missed the size in the video or not?
Hello Jamie, I do believe it is a 50x50 cm. :)
Would you be willing to share purchase information on the carousel horse behind you?
billiehiggins1 It is my own artwork. Oil on canvas. It is of the #1 horse on the carousel at Dollywood. The one that is named after Dolly. I painted it several years ago.
Looks great what size is it
50x50 cm
I would black right way and you paint at
Haha the girl looks a little jondice. Thats the funniest thing i have heard in some time. Lol
lol!
How do you find a canvass that is the exact size you need?
Claudia Nay Hi Claudia, I take note of the Centimeters and figure out the inches of it. Some are not the exact same size so, I get the closest canvas that will match. Sometimes I have a bunch of extra on the edge. You can paint it or even hot glue some decor for a 3D affect! The canvases usually will say the Centimeters as well as the inch size that they are and that helps out a whole lot! Don’t worry if its a few inches larger than your canvas.
What size is fhe canvas
Thanks for asking, The stretched canvas is a 20 x 20 inch canvas. If I could not find one close enough I will go to the very next size. Now that I can find black prestretched canvases I don't have to paint before gluing it on.
What type drill is this? Round or square?
Divyasri Rao Hello Divyasri, this is a square Diamond painting . :)
