I have also noticed that when placing diamonds on a poured glue canvas that the glue has a more "jelly" like type of texture. It is more forgiving if you need to maneuver a misplaced diamond around as well. I wish more companies carried poured glue!
Thank you so much. Really helpful advice I knew of quite a few of these you mentioned before but definitely enjoyed learning more ways to tell which one is which and helpful to those new people looking to get started in this hobby.
Distracted by diamonds out of Ohio is amazing and their canvases are poured ice just looked at my paintings and I’m so grateful because my deliveries from miss robin at distracted diamonds have gotten to me no more than 3 days at most from Ohio now I’m originally from Michigan and I know folks who can’t drive from Ohio to Florida in such a short time (I’m joking y’all). Also she has the best and I mean best wax it’s called paddywaxx and wow it’s awesome sauce! Ok I’m a year late but I’m here
Thank you for a very informative video. A couple/few of recent purchases are double sided. Since watching this video, i have saved a number of clear plastic cover. Hugs from Australia.
Good evening Mrs. coffee thank you so much for the video about the diamond paintings you tell me something you today have a good evening be safe🌹❤️🌷💐☕️
Great video .. thanx .. i was wondering how you tell the difference. Still working on my first one and its double sided adhesive. It has a few rivers .. but luckily i had seen a video on how to fix those. Always informative .. thanx. :)
I ordered my first diamond painting from Amazon about a month ago, and it came with poured glue! But the square drills all have dimples and and pen only had a single tip... Oh well, it was cheap at least!
you have helped a couple of times i have another challange ive just started doing bigger paintings i have one that is a 45 by 60 its one of my biggest ones its longer more then wide and it has a lot of creases and its kind of stiff im in the process of putting books on it if i put it under mattress where do i put it by my legs or where i lay
You said to save clear plastic from another painting to replace cover on double sided tape canvas. I'm wondering if you could replace it with something like Glad Wrap. You know how that stuff wants to stick to evertyhing!
Thanks for the video i had to update my understanding on what the difference was on the 2 glue types. I just recieved my first ever alieexpress order and it has double sided tape. My canvas is all crinkled up hope I can smooth it out before starting it 😂😭 It's 60x50cm and all square diamonds (a lady dressed in red leaning on a wall) normally i just do rounds and only poured glue (i noticed) so this is gonna be an adventure 😁
Great video full of helpful information. One question comes to mind; if you do unknowingly purchase a double sided painting is it worth the effort of doing it? Will it turn out looking good?
oh yea, Double sided adhesive canvases aren't all bad, they are just prone to having bubbles and rivers in them. As long as the drill field is clear and you can make out what the image is, it's fine
This is very helpful! I ordered a bunch from eBay last year. I finished them. They all sucked! I now am finishing my stock of diamond dotz. They are okay but they are mostly partials. I have a stockpile of DAC. From now on once I finish my diamond Dotz I will only purchase DAC in the future. Nothing is more frustrating than working on a crappy eBay canvas or running out of diamond dotz. In some of my Diamond dotz kits they don’t give enough diamonds. I know Joann’s sells them but I can’t get to Joann’s to get them right now.
Thank you for all your helpful (& funny!) videos.. could you explain what 'Mounting Film' adhesive is? They have clear covers, but am unsure of how it would work. I posted the question on your FB group but nobody knew/answered. Thank you & stay well!
Do you have any tips for repairing a canvas that has been cut? I thought I was carefully cutting the cover plastic (with a ceramic pen knife) so I could work on an area. Then discovered I have an “L” shaped cut (probably 2” x 3”) in the canvas. I currently have it “tacked” together with washi tape, but… I know that’s not going to hold.
Thanks for the informative video! I only do poured glue kits, but I do have a small Wizardi double-sided adhesive to do that is square.... bwahahahaha! xoxo 💜
Very carefully, Low heat no steam, but I would try putting a towel in the dryer until hot then Laying it om the back of the kit while flat to see if that works first.
wax Pencils? Their ok, if your talking about the nail design pens with the cone of wax on one side and the tiny tip on the other side, those are garbage, don't like them
so i understand the differences in the glue, but my question is how are you sure before ordering which one you will get. how do you know which companies sell which. thank you.

What do you mean? If your kit is under the mattress, unless you are sleeping under the mattress as well you would sleep on the top of the mattress.
Thank you!!!
I'm just catching up on my diamond information lol..

🤔 Mounted Glue... Sure Let me Contact Treasure Studios arts they have Mounted Glue.
@@MrsCoffee1 thank you! I'm sure you're much busier than me tho, so I could always email them too. Just thought I'd check around a bit first! 💗

Minus taping the back there is no cure for that
Thanks for the informative video! I only do poured glue kits, but I do have a small Wizardi double-sided adhesive to do that is square.... bwahahahaha! xoxo 💜
Can you iron the back of double adhesives?
Very carefully, Low heat no steam, but I would try putting a towel in the dryer until hot then Laying it om the back of the kit while flat to see if that works first.
How do you remove the extra glue around the border on a poured glue?
No, usually there isn't enough there to remove if any
Ok so I learned that I don't want a double sided adhesive canvas😥😥😆😆
Can I ask you what you think of the pens that the company says that they don't need wax?? Some are like colouring white pencils!!
wax Pencils? Their ok, if your talking about the nail design pens with the cone of wax on one side and the tiny tip on the other side, those are garbage, don't like them
Where is the best place to buy the poured glue?
Diamond Art Club, DIYMoon Shop, Craftibly, Mystical Diamond Art. Just off the top of my Head.
Do u know u have a Vulpix there ??? 😄
No i didn't realize
@@MrsCoffee1 Its a famous fan art from Deviant art
so i understand the differences in the glue, but my question is how are you sure before ordering which one you will get. how do you know which companies sell which. thank you.
98% of Aliexpress is double sided adhesive, you can always ask the seller
ok thank you
Or watch an unboxing of the company you would like to order from. 🙂
🙂💗👍
I know that poured glue is better, but i like the feel of double sided tape more :/
That's cool 😎 we all have our preference.
Give me poured glue
