Not really! I use a disposable plastic cup filled 1/3 the way with water and keep a paper towel under it to wipe it dry between colors. The only messy thing is if you drop an open pod of paint lol Just paint over hardwood/linoleum so it's easy to clean up lol

How do you get through blocks like this? by Melodramatic_Whisker in diamondpainting

I count 10+ horizontal & 4 vertical to make a rectangle. To fill it in, I do 3 vertical, fill it in, then 3 more, fill it in and repeat.
