I am interesting in learning how to do diamond painting. Can anyone post links to kits that are easy and simple to start with? I prefer floral/nature scenes.
TIA!

There's really nothing to learn. It's the simplest art available today. I'm doing one now for the first time with 26 different colors.

Thank you, tweety and jade!
Just wondering-some of the kits that I have seen say that they are 5D. does that mean that they are harder to do?

I think all are considered 5d, doesn't mean anything, just sounds fancy.
It's basically color by number but using little stones instead. Very simple.
The only 2 real differences that exist in diamond painting is round stones vs square stones.
People like that the square stone fills the picture better, but the round is quicker and easier to apply.
We used the round ones.

Start small. I found it mind numbingly boring & after a while my kids did as well. So there the canvas sits rolled up mostly unfinished.

I didnot see a difference. I have ordered from Ebay, Amazon or even Ali express. All same stuff.

Some buying tips To keep in mind:
Square stones are harder then round because you have to put them down straight.
It’s harder:
The more colors there are
The more saturated the colors are - like colors are very mixed in small areas
Colors switch often
One thing I found very helpful is buying 2 oz covered dip containers and label them with each bead color and keep the beads in there.
We bought cheap from Amazon.

There are so many companies selling on Amazon...many with not great reviews. Can someone link specific paintings you've done that we're good quality. Bonus for any Jewish themed kits :-)
