Get the Best Diamond Painting Kits for Your Crafting Friend
When you’re searching for the best gift for a craftsperson, you can never go wrong with diamond painting kits. What is diamond painting? It is an addictive and straightforward hobby that combines the ease of painting by numbers with the popularity of cross-stitch. But, instead of using paint or thread to create images, you use shimmering resin “diamonds”. Each kit comes with a self-adhesive canvas that is pre-printed with the design and symbols showing you where to place each colored gem. Once complete, the canvas is a sparkling, display-worthy work of art that is sure to turn heads.
The great thing about diamond art kits is that they are suitable for just about everyone. This craft can be enjoyed by almost all ages and skill levels, with designs to match anyone’s style preference. And, when you shop Diamond Art Club® for the best diamond painting kits, you can be sure you are getting a top-quality product. Our kits feature premium canvases, high-quality, extra-sparkly diamond drills and all the tools needed to complete a masterpiece.
Not everyone on your shopping list will have years of crafting experience. Some folks are just discovering their creative side, while others may be looking to explore new artistic pursuits without investing in expensive equipment and supplies. Diamond painting kits for beginners make excellent gifts because they require no prior experience and come with everything needed to complete a stunning project. These kits typically feature simpler designs and are on the smaller side, making them easier to complete than larger, more detailed images.

Gem Houses also offer a fantastic entry point for beginners because they combine the satisfaction of diamond painting with the fun of building a three-dimensional structure. For those who enjoy beloved characters more than architecture, our Sparkle Pals™ are a fun and whimsical option suitable for kids and adults alike.
Other types of craft kits work well, too. Just be sure to look for ones that include clear instructions, quality materials and designs that aren’t too complex. Simple projects help first-timers build confidence while creating something beautiful. Many crafters remember their first project fondly, so choosing an approachable kit ensures your gift becomes a treasured memory rather than an abandoned attempt.
Holiday shopping doesn’t always have to be about big-ticket items and sometimes, the most appreciated gifts come in small packages. When you’re looking for affordable gift ideas for crafters, consider items that tuck neatly into stockings. Our line of Mini Easels, for example, features adorable quotes and designs and each is less than $15. For a little more, Mini Dazzles™ kits contain 6 themed, bite-size canvases, great as a fun, quick project for on the go crafters. In addition, we offer a variety of smaller diamond art kits done on materials other than canvas, such as character stickers, magnets, and key chains. Any of these diamond painting kits would make thoughtful stocking stuffers that crafters would love to receive. (If you happen to need the stockings themselves, we have you covered, in adorable themes like Peanuts™, Smurfs™, and more!
Delight the diamond painter in your life with one of our hanging signs or a sparkling coaster set. These customizable home decor items add sparkle to any space, and they take less time to complete than many other diamond art projects due to their smaller size. Plus, they make great gifts for both beginner and experienced crafters. Our assortment of holiday diamond art coaster kits are perfect for adding festive dazzle to holiday hot cocoa, with other styles available to provide shine year-round.
When you need a simple, affordable gift for the crafter in your life, you can’t go wrong with greeting cards. Diamond painting greeting cards come in a variety of designs and make lovely gifts for everyone on your list. Whether you gift a set for the recipient to complete or send a completed card to let them know you are thinking about them, your thoughtfulness will surely be appreciated. Our DIY sets of greeting cards and Diamond Pop Cards™ feature fun characters that everyone loves.
Find the Perfect Diamond Painting Kit at Diamond Art Club
No matter what type of craft your friend or loved one enjoys, they always need supplies. If you know what kinds of projects they like, consider buying them some useful tools and accessories. A set of high-quality knitting needles or crochet hooks would make a lovely gift for the fiber artist in your life. And some top-of-the-line brushes or pencils are sure to be loved by any sketch artist or painter. A bright light for creating is an excellent choice, as well. Any crafter who enjoys diamond painting, drawing, embroidery or scrapbooking would love a diamond painting light pad to illuminate their projects from below, helping them take their designs to the next level.
If you aren’t sure what types of tools or accessories the creative person in your life might need or want, it never hurts to ask. If you are trying to be stealthy, though, try visiting a local arts and crafts store. Talk to someone who works there and let them know what hobbies your friend or loved one enjoys. Chances are, they will have plenty of recommendations for items that someone working in that specialty would appreciate. If you can find a store dedicated to the particular craft they love — like a yarn store for a knitter or a fabric shop for someone who loves quilting — that’s even better! Online crafting groups are also great places to find out the types of supplies needed for each individual hobby.
When it comes to gifts for crafters, one of our favorite offerings is a diamond painting advent calendar. Each year, we curate a delightful selection of unique kits and accessories that cater to different skill levels and artistic preferences. These calendars are designed not only to surprise and delight but also to inspire creativity throughout the holiday season, building anticipation as each day unveils a new treasure! This limited-edition gift is perfect for bringing joy into the lives of crafters, whether they’re a seasoned diamond painter or someone just starting their journey. By choosing an advent calendar that resonates with their interests, you're not just giving a present; you're sharing a meaningful experience that they will cherish and look forward to each year.
Businesses that deliver a package full of specialty goodies once a month have exploded in popularity in the last few years. From traditional subscriptions that deliver a different box of fruit each month, to more unique options, like small batch, flavored marshmallows every quarter, there is something right for everyone on your holiday shopping list — even the handicrafters. An arts and crafts subscription is a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves making things. And with lots of different options to choose from, you can find one that’s perfect for your intended recipient.
There are drawing and painting subscription boxes for artists, specialty paper boxes for card makers and scrapbookers and many more. There are even kits that include a different type of project each month. These are perfect for anyone who enjoys trying out new art trends. Keep in mind, too, that subscription boxes are available for both adults and children, so this is an excellent gift for people of all ages. And, since packages are delivered monthly (or a few times per year), this is a gift that keeps on giving long after the holiday season.
Staying organized is a struggle for many artistic types. Even those who have a dedicated room for their projects often have a hard time finding a place for all of their supplies and keeping everything tidy. Help them out this year by gifting them functional organizational items.
Have a chat with your favorite handicrafter, and you will likely learn that they have trouble keeping track of their supplies and works in progress. They may even bring up specific pain points, like not knowing how to organize and store the leftover diamond drills from their completed diamond painting kits. If they do, make a note of what they are struggling with and gift them a solution. Buying them a small organizer with secure individual compartments is an excellent way to help them store those leftover resin rhinestone drills and other small objects, like beads or buttons.
Decorative boxes, baskets, shelves and other organizational pieces make wonderful gifts, too. If you want to splurge on something extra special for them, a curio cabinet or a project table with built-in storage would make an amazing present. On the other hand, if money is tight, offer to spend a day helping your friend tidy up and organize their creative space. Sometimes, the gift of time and help is even more valuable than a present that costs a lot of money.
If you are looking for a gift that will really “wow” the recipient, you can’t go wrong with a vinyl cutter. These machines are incredibly versatile and can cut a wide range of materials, not just vinyl. Devices like the Cricut Explore 4 can emboss, etch, draw, scan and work with more than 100 different materials. Your friend or loved one can use their new cutter to make everything from custom decals and stickers to magnets, stencils, signs and more.
Today’s vinyl cutters, or “plotters”, resemble inkjet printers. But, instead of printing, they use a sharp blade to cut designs and letters from materials like vinyl and cardstock. Think of it as a craft knife controlled by a computer. They offer precise cutting of the designer’s image or text in minutes, making it much easier than hand-cutting. It takes a bit of practice, but learning how to use one is a breeze, thanks to the abundance of online tutorials.
There are a number of different machines to choose from, with several different price points. If you are thinking about giving a vinyl cutter as a gift this holiday season, check out some of the best cutters currently on the market.

Has your friend mentioned wanting to learn a new craft? Or have they talked about a pattern book that recently hit the shelves? If so, a craft book might make an excellent gift for them. Even if they haven’t expressed an interest in reading a specific book or learning a new craft, there are lots of cool crafting books out there on everything from traditional English paper piecing to ingenious crafting with cat hair. A book related to a favorite hobby is always well-received by someone who loves reading and enjoys crafts.
Head to your local bookstore and search the shelves for craft books that look interesting. Or, visit a nearby craft store for niche magazines and DIY books. The Internet is, of course, a great place to find books, too. When in doubt, a gift card from a local bookstore with a note encouraging your pal to pick up a craft book they’ve been eyeing is always a good option.
Does the creator in your life make things to sell or give as gifts? If so, perhaps they would like a custom stamp featuring their name, business name or logo. A simple “Made By” stamp is a thoughtful gift that will make your friend or loved one think of you every time they complete a new project. Select one that is self-inking, or choose an ink pad in their preferred color palette to make a more complete ensemble.
Etsy.com is a great place to have a custom stamp made without spending a fortune. Plus, buying items on Etsy usually means supporting other crafters and small business owners rather than large corporations, so it’s a win-win!
Every craftsperson probably already has a glue gun in their arsenal. However, not everyone has a really nice glue gun. If the artisan in your life is using an old, outmoded one, consider upgrading them to a newer model. A glue gun with an auto-off feature is a welcome addition to any supply cabinet kit. This convenient safety feature means they will never have to worry about forgetting to unplug their glue gun before leaving the room again.
Glue guns have gotten some significant upgrades in the last few years. There are ergonomically designed, cordless glue guns and models with adjustable heat settings. Spend some time checking out all the options and you are sure to find one that the crafter in your life will love. Don’t forget to include some compatible glue sticks with your gift, too!
Headphones might not be the first thing that comes to mind when you think about the crafter in your life, but just hear us out. Whether it’s diamond art, collage, baking, or any other type of project, making things by hand requires some serious concentration. And, it is all but impossible to focus when dogs are barking, kids are playing, and other people are talking. A good set of noise-canceling headphones blocks out all of that background noise so your loved one can concentrate on what they enjoy. And, when you opt for a wireless pair, they will be more comfortable and free to move around.
If the crafter on your list is someone who truly has everything, gifting them an experience may be a better option than a more traditional gift. Signing them up for a craft class is a great way to show you care, and it will earn you some serious “cool” points. In addition, the memories they make during the course will last much longer than most art supplies.
You can sign your pal up for an online class or look for local classes in your area. Whether it’s cake decorating, crocheting, quilting or even metalworking, the crafter in your life will be delighted to have the opportunity to try something new. To make this present even more special, consider signing yourself up for the class, too. Trust us — even if you don’t think you are very creative, you will have a blast learning a new skill with someone special. And they will really appreciate the fact that you’re taking an interest in something they enjoy.
When it comes to finding the best gifts for crafters, thoughtfulness and creativity are critical. From diamond painting kits for beginners to fun, community classes, true makers enjoy and are grateful for any type of gift that involves creating something. And, if you would like to surprise the artistic person in your life with a beautiful diamond art kit, we have you covered! Our kits are of the highest quality and we offer a wide variety of designs for children and adults alike. Shop today to find the perfect gifts for the creative people in your life.
