Diamond painting framing idea

Fabric backdrop

[@taylorrosenberg3350]

Thank you tons! What a great way to finish those "paintings" that we spend so much time on. Wrapping paper is also a great idea; thanks Sweetbear.

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

You are so welcome!

[@DeeDeb4]

Love this frame idea. Have watched several way and ideas. I like this the most for especially a larger diamond picture. Thank you for sharing 😊

[@SweetbearCoyote]

Very nice idea. I wonder how wrapping paper would work instead of fabric. Lots of possibilities. Thanks for sharing. :)

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Ooh..yeah. pretty scrapbook papers out there.

[@mystriadiamonds]

Now this is a framing idea I have not seen before! Love it!

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Its my favorite framing idea.

[@careyperu1922]

Just a tip to keep out wrinkling fold top then bottom and then one side then the other side. Great idea!

[@therese6772]

This is The absolute best idea I have seen so far. This one I will use. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@scottydog6539]

You did a fantastic job. I love it.

[@kathybradley8315]

Lovely diamond painting in a beautiful frame. Thanks for sharing such an awesome idea. I am very new to diamond painting - so I am attempting to learn and keep notes.

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

I'm new also. Just started DP in November. I love it and I'm having fun. Just wish I had more time. And KZbin...never in a million years did I ever think I would do that. Thanks for watching and subscribing.

[@therese6772]

This is the absolute best framing idea I have seen. Thank you so much.

[@8SmileyLady]

This is great. Thank you Mindy!

[@lauriebettis2632]

Great idea using fabric. But in so many of these tutorials, the glare from the glass is very distracting. Have you thought about using a non-glare cover? Yes, it's an added expense, but with the non-glare, all you see is the diamond sparkle. Just a thought.

[@lynnlewis1962]

Of all the framing I’ve seen on diamond drill paintings this one is the best. Thank you

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Well thank you so much.

[@lizmchenry3049]

What a great idea to use fabric! ☺️ thank you! 💜❤️🧡💛💚💙

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

You're welcome 😊

[@BamaFamily79]

Great idea on how to frame a diamond painting!! I've seen people use poster board, but there are SO many colors available using the fabric method! I love that painting too... reminds me of the Blue Ridge Parkway... almost Heaven! :-)

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Smoky mountain memories. This is easy framing.

[@janeconnelly1289]

What a great idea Picture is lovely. Thank you for sharing your framing idea

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Still one of my favorite ways to frame.

[@kathleenbalentine4003]

Thank you so very much. I have a few pictures I am giving as Christmas presents that I really just couldn't figure out how to frame without cutting part of it off. So Thank you again!!!

[@PurpleWillowArts]

This turned out just lovely! Such a brilliant idea!!! I’ll have to go stock up on fabric. Love this idea!!!!!

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

I love doing this

[@ShanaCali]

I love the demonstration, what did not work for you last time and what did work this time when folding corners. I just finished my first diamond painting and am not sure what to do with it, until KZbin suggested this as a recommend video. I'm so thrilled, thank you so much!!!

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Oh I'm so happy to have helped.

[@ShanaCali]

Thank you

[@lisareardon8168]

Thanks I am looking for all the framing ideas I can get. I have a lot of paintings that I need to frame and give to my family 👪 I was super happy to find this one.

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

This is one of my favorite

[@StacysRitzyDPCrafts]

Thank you for sharing. I'm running into that same problem

[@tamyterrell2980]

Thank You For the framing idea.

[@marymorgan8728]

Thanks for such a helpful video, I have three diamond paintings needing frames and you've given me the inspiration (and confidence) to get them done.

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

You can do it💜💜

[@trailmix1970]

best idea i have seen yet

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Thanks

[@lindavandeneeden1181]

Perfect application for a diamond painting. Thank you

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Glad you like it!

[@CheyenneBlueHorse]

While watching your tip on framing, I thought I might just paint the mat. Always have lots of craft paints around. I've done that in the past with family photos! Thanks for kick starting my thought processes. :-)

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

You're welcome 😊

[@debbieelholm7921]

Another great idea! Thanks for sharing!

[@maryellenrowe4051]

Even with the glare...it’s beautiful!!

[@joeh4796]

I had never seen this video before Mindy!

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Lol

[@kendraiacouzze4930]

Love it!! I have several pieces that I will be mounting and you solved several things I was agonizing over. 💕💕

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

They look great this way.

[@gramadidi]

This is a great idea. I have successfully given the mat several light coatings of acrylic paint in a color of my choice.

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

It's probably my favorite

[@karlabavousett9869]

You're doing great!🤗🙏💜💜💜

[@eastcoaststitcher8203]

Okay so I got the quilt fabric and it worked fine. But, my double adhesive didn’t stick to my washi tape so I didn’t use it. Next one, I just used 4 pieces of 12 x 12 card stock. Used washi tape so you couldn’t see the seems. Looks beautiful. Professional. Had an unused expensive frame in the closet. A $12.99 diamond painting looks expensive. Thanks again for the tips. Just tweeted it a bit!

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

See how fun and easy framing can be? Love it.

[@murielgates7958]

Like the idea. Thank you for sharing

[@lakishas3010]

I just finished another one like that about 30 minutes ago. Thank you.

[@lisahelton3297]

If you fold in the "hospital corner" first and then do the sides, you will have sharper points

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Yes...and that is how I've started doing it.

[@eduardoortizhernandez2593]

[@peikathryn]

Oh what a great idea. For the edge of the diamond painting, did you trim it right next to where the diamonds start?

Yes I did

did you use Modge Podge before you framed it? @mindy'sDiamondMoment

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

No. This one is not sealed. It's behind glass.

[@georgette329]

This looks awesome. Love the way you matted this.

[@ritaruff9696]

My favorite!

[@kimberlybarr8204]

Great idea 🙂 thank you

[@katecoan4280]

Walmart has a double sided hem tape that would probably hold the fabric more secure. It's just as thin as regular double sided tape.

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Oh nice...maybe.😄

[@maryoneill5070]

That's beautiful. Did you seal your diamond painting? In going to try this but I was told I should seal my work 1st.

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

I did not seal it because it's behind glass. It's protected that way. I do seal some that are not behind glass

[@maryoneill5070]

Mine will be behind glass. I can't wait to get it done. Thank you i appreciate your quick response. ✌❤😃

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

What is your picture?

[@maryoneill5070]

Van Gogh's Cafe At Night. It's my 1st one. It was relaxing and stress free.

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

You're welcome. I enjoy doing it.

[@judystites9575]

Have you ever tried using washietape?

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Yes.. I didn't like it. It is either bumpy, or too thin. I don't know.

[@sewonra2294]

Is there a certain type of double tape i should use or regular double would work

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Nope...any should work

[@essye1009]

[@barbarabriley7863]

What do you use to cut the sides and top off the diamond painting?

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Scissors

What do you seal your diamond dot pictures with?

I don't seal many

[@merickson112]

Thank you, now I know what to do with all my fat quarters

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Absolutely!!!

[@maxineleibowitz5367]

Did you seal the painting first before framing? I am wondering if sealing is necessary if I am going to frame it.

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

I did not deal this one because it went behind glass.

[@maxineleibowitz5367]

Okay. Thanks.

[@SaraSara-sx1ee]

That means no need to seal if it is behind glass?

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

I don't seal behind glass

How about putting a glass on a frame 🖼??? Please answer

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Not sure what you mean

[@mahafreij5431]

@@mindysdiamondmoment I mean when I finish my job like canvas sometimes I put a glass on it because of the dust

No

Why not just use the matting?

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

I wanted a colored border

[@dominiquew.8181]

Is it better to maybe use a mat glass?

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Do you mean like a museum type class? Something with less glare. If so, probably. More expensive.

[@dominiquew.8181]

I am not sure if it has to be a museum one but I think we can find mat glass. I will find out. Thanks.

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

Awesome..thanks

We can totally see you are smoking in the reflection of the piece. LOL!

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

[@wendym2987]

Great idea but unless you want to pay a fortune for a frame, you would not get a mount with it. I buy most of my frames from ebay but even there, the ones with mounts are a lot more expensive :-(

[@mindysdiamondmoment]

I get a lot of them from Walmart, pretty inexpensive.
