[@sheilaa.winters3153]

Well done, thank you for the demonstration.....This is the first time seeing this last step of diamond projects 👏 👍

[@diamondxpres-diamondpainting]

Glad you enjoyed it!

I'm new to this. I just finished my first ever without previous knowledge. Straight forward til sealing and framing. I have 2 cats so I got to pluck those out before sealing. I bout a sealer from michaels where I got an 8x8. Not going to lie thank you for this video. Seen videos using modge podge and didn't look good and 48 hours? Yikes. But the ending after said and done made it vibrant. Great video. I'll use the diamond sealer they sell at michaels for this small one I did and when I do a bigger one try this technique. And cutting it I think helps.

Omgosh. Tape to protect the desk, but cut the painting out with an exacto knife directly on the desktop? 😂 I will try the mod podge though. Thanks for the tip about wiping the excess off the top off the drills.

Thank you!

The music is so epic.

[@saraewalker6416]

Oh, I never thought about doing that. I just let it dry. That’s a good tip.

[@diamondxpres-diamondpainting]

Thank you!

[@bettybrigance6784]

This is what I've been doing...for years and they all are still beautiful...

[@sskaba]

Very nice. Cool. I will try this method . From Canada.

[@joycescott1225]

Do always thought you used modge podge beat thanks for sharing I'll do this next time xx

[@diamondxpres-diamondpainting]

We like mod podge best

[@cynthiarifkin403]

Where did you get that diamond painting from I would love to get one

[@cathygreear2598]

Did you use glossy or matte mod podge

[@vasanthaveerappan4739]

Can modge lodge spray works

[@bowlingbill9633]

I would do this on a piece of card, not my table lol from uk. What is hod Podge ?

[@Meanne77]

Basically, it's just wood glue cut with water (i'd say about 1:9 ratio, something like that)

[@robinwest5427]

Ive read that modge podge takes the 'shimmer' out of the crystals. True or False?

[@ViolenceIsAVirtue]

It does. It isn't too much but it is noticeable. I am going to try this method for my 2nd project

[@maryfeist8080]

After applying Mod Podge, use a slightly damp cloth to wipe off excess. This helps the diamonds to shine!

[@TheMothering74]

I will try this with my next one. I bought a sealer off Amazon and I’m so sad because it left like a milky look between the drills and they actually look like there is a plastic film on my canvas. This looks great. Thank you!

[@diamondxpres-diamondpainting]

Thank you. We have this hung in our home and it looks great!!

[@lizanicole8410]

What type of Modge Podge? There are many types ❤

[@kate4121]

I used Mod Podge on my first set of coasters. It dulled the shine and felt sticky even after drying. I won’t use it anymore. I bought something in a blue bottle on Amazon and it’s amazing. Brilliant shine and no stickiness after it dries.

[@ladyjane3660]

In a video you did 3 years ago, you said you liked the Elmer's clear glue best for sealing. What has changed?

[@darlahall6583]

Does this work with Special Shape, Diamond Painting? Some diamonds are big. ???

[@diamondxpres-diamondpainting]

We don't know. Never tried it. Great question.

[@spygrl]

Tell me I'm not the only one who cringed cutting straight onto the table LOL - thanks for the demonstration - I never thought of diluting the mod podge in that way.

[@diamondxpres-diamondpainting]

I hear you. It’s a very old piece of a large wooden desk top. Sturdy and tough. 😂

[@bobbywilcox6816]

I was trippin out hard core! Lol

[@edithseelhoff3471]

when ever i use mod podge my paintings really get stiff its ruined a couple of my paintings

[@bettybrigance6784]

I do it this way too...

[@maryfeist8080]

He put way too much on that painting!

[@alisabelladesign8138]
