Diamond Painting Tips - Multi-Placing

[@susancook5302]

I just found your channel. I've been watching videos on multiplacing, and I think yours was the best. You talk like I think, and you made sense to me. I have subscribed and will be watching all your videos. Please keep them coming. God bless.

I love the four or five placers! Thank you for great content as you always do you are awesome 😎!!!

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

Thanks!

[@stickingwithdiamonds9529]

Thanks, Joan!! You are the first person I've ever seen diamond paint exactly like me!! I too, only use a 5 placer!! I can diamond paint with any size but I hate to count 😂. I also prefer to paint vertically moving from right to left with my tray oriented vertically 💖

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

Yes, 5 is really easy for me to count immediately.

[@graylagran7443]

My most used multiplacer is my 4 placer. I too place up and down, but with the canvas also oriented up and down. I stagger as well. Depending on the blocking area and drills/canvas, I also use anything from single to 8 placer.

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

I usually diamond paint with my canvas in portrait even if it the picture is in landscape orientation. It just fits my area better.

[@marlamorris2869]

I like the four placer. I'll even use it to single place too to save time from flipping back and forth.

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

I do that too!

[@commonsense1212]

Can you do tips on waxes and putties please? love your contents. ☺☺

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

I don't really use the waxes and putties. I use glue dot in my single placer and double sided tape in my mulitplacer.

[@commonsense1212]

@@JoanDiamondPaints Double sided tape?!?! WOW how do you do that? please teach us 🙏🙏😅😁😊

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

@@commonsense1212 I showed it in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/iZfHgneunNF-b5I at the 5:45 mark

[@eurekahavoc4669]

This was so helpful. It really encouraged me use the right tools for my skill level. I had jumped to a 10 placed way too quickly and was spending too much time re-aligning wonky drill placement. I had moved to a 7 but am going to use a 5 and try it. The vertical placement is a game changer. I love it so much more than horizontal.

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

Glad it was helpful!

[@akinsolarin5752]

Absolutely enthralling! Loved it. 😊

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Sheenasalesthriftytreasures]

Great video thank you ❤

[@msyankees657]

Loved the video! I am in search of a 2 placer. I am a 4-placer as my go to. I also prefer the metal placers over the plastic. I haven't yet developed a technique for my approach to the painting. Right now, I move around the canvas to change the focus of what I am diamond painting. 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

I usually go by section and start with the predominant color.

[@karentaylor83]

Four placers are my favorite. I tried larger but don't do well. Thank you for sharing.

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

I don't do well with the larger placers either.

[@patricekloves2diamondpaint]

I find the multi placer helpful and a pain at the same time. I got the train make market painting and started it. It reminds me of diamond dotz.

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

I feel the same way sometimes but I can't go back to only single placing.

[@ireneeickenhorst2326]

The 2, 3 and 5 are my happy place took me awhile but once I got on to it I liked it and I like the metal placers best. Great job as always.

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

Thank you!

[@ina290]

I love the 4 placer 🐱

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

😀

[@barbarasd1196]

Joan, you make lining up the drills look so easy. I have wondered if one tray works better than another for lining up.

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

I thought of doing a video on how to line the drills up on a tray but it is so automatic for me now that I don't know how to explain it.

[@craftaddictRoxanne]

Hi Joan great content. I was wondering if they had a larger placer then ten. I love the large placers I will look for the 15 placers now. I could never go back to the 1 placer. Tfs hugs

[@barbarasd1196]

Joan, do you have a preference for where you buy your metal placers?

[@susanjacobs5582]

What “wax” do you use in your multiplayer?

[@judivowell5748]

I bought some metal tips but they were very bulky. I love these that you use but I would luke it if I could order just the size i use (4 placer). Thank you for the info.

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

I didn't see one on Amazon that just sold 1 at a time but I saw this pack: amzn.to/3jqe60f The budget stores I do PR packages for sell them individually like here www.diydigitalart.com/products/rhinestones-head-diamond-painting-point-drill-pen-tips-diy-arts-decor-craft?spm=..collection_dd8881eb-4496-4815-a9ae-e80a561a1269.collection_detail_1.78&spm_prev=..index.header_1.1

[@catherinewalesiuk]

I have single placed my first 3 paintings. The fourth one had a lot of black colorblocking, that's when I started multiplacing with 4. Now, my fav is the 7 multiplacer. I multiplace everything from 2 to 7 with it, then sigle place when I have no choice 😁

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

I sometimes single place with my multiplacer.

[@christinakohl6111]

First off i love your nails! ❤ they remind me of a design i did on mine years ago 😆 also you really make it look so easy. I tried it with a 3 placer recently but it still seems more effort than singleplacing 😅

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

Once I got the hang of multiplacing, I can't go back to only single place.

[@christinakohl6111]

@@JoanDiamondPaints i bet. I mean it is obviously very convenient if you're able to put down 4 or 5 drill at a time compared to just one. Maybe i just need to get used to it🤷‍♀️

[@florabamabelle6413]

What nail polish do you use? Beautiful

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

It is actually a nail wrap from here: www.lilyandfox.com/products/seas-the-day?_pos=1&_sid=0c0ab4a5e&_ss=r

[@BandCreativity]

I got a new set of a pen and a bunch of steel multiplacers and I put them in both ends of the pen but they don't stay still - the move around the base of the pen. Do you have any tips to fix this? Thanks

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

Wrap enough tape around the multiplacer and then insert it into the pen. The tape will add some extra width and help it fit the pen better.

[@annsmith5625]

I multi-place a lot ..usually 4 placer. But I have used the really long ones a couple times. Use a " heel to toe " motion to make straight line. ⚾️

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

Love the heel to toe description!

[@maristinelaws434]

I need some help with AB when I pick the AB wax in the pen and it on the picture it pulls the wax out the pen can someone please please help me? Or give a suggestion thanks.

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

I suggest dirtying up the wax. ABs pull out newly added wax. Also, I find ABs are easier to place with multiplacers.

[@mamalou1962]

I do my best multi-placing with 6. But, when I multi-place the drills don’t fit together as well as single placing. But,with that said, I’ve only been doing this about 3 months.

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

Diamond paintings usually do look a little better when single placing. I don't usually go bigger in my multiplacing just because I would need to spread them out a little the bigger the multiplacer.

[@susanjacobs5582]

Love your tips however I do the opposite. I use the curved tip for my squares and the straight tip for my rounds.

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

I could not get a hang of the curved tip for my squares. Maybe I should try again.

[@sharonfransen1191]

I still can’t multiplace very well. I’m too picky. Plus I just can’t get the diamonds to line up in the tray😮

[@barbarasd1196]

I have problems lining up the drills in the tray, too. or I don’t pick up all the drills. I have a DP that has terrible colors on the subjects (birds are pink) and I’m going to use the canvas to practice multiplacing. I don’t like idea of wasting drills, but will be a good way to practice.

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

It took me 15-20 diamond paintings until I started multiplacing.

[@JoanDiamondPaints]

@@barbarasd1196 I sometimes don't pick up all the drills when multiplacing either.

[@michelledupas7609]

Hello, I just started doing Diamond painting and I’m a little annoyed because I want to do multi diamond placing like three at a time but it’s really hard to pick up the diamonds with the pens. Does anybody else have this problem and I stick it in the wax you know for a while, so the wax will build up before even try to pick up the diamonds and I’m still having problems, picking up the diamonds from the tray. 😡
