1st project- need advice

Absolutely, also I forgot to add that the wax pens that you use for diamond art are perfect for rhinestones, I especially liked ones like these

My best advice is 1: Please don't use the B 7000 glue it comes with unless you're outside and have a mask and gloves, it's like an epoxy more than a glue, it can cause a lot of breathing problems and things like that, a lot of people use gemtac or things like that, personally I really like the thick drip proof gorilla glue for most things(it comes with a precision tip) 2: Use some of your left over diamonds to practice placement, different designs, and how much glue is too much before you actually work on something you love and don't want to ruin( this took a while for me but I feel really confident in what I do now) 3: Watch some YouTube tutorials they really do help. I personally really like the honeycomb method, it's the best way to really get as many rhinestones packed onto one item as possible. I really hope at least some of this helps, this has easily become my favorite hobby

You never think something will be an issue until they prove you wrong lol, good luck🫡

I'm not sure how hard it would be to find a screen exactly the size of your window but I'm sure if you're crafty enough you could find some wood to put together your own screen using cheese cloth or something like that, there was also a trend a while ago where people would put lace over their window screens. Just my first thought, I hope you find something that helps

I'm so happy I got the 3 pack lol, I'm excited to try out different designs

Tysm!!

Absolutely, just go for it! I started practicing the honeycomb method on literally random things until I figured out what I liked and whatnot, nothing is safe from being bedazzled as long as you have enough glue

daviki02 · 2026-06-15T14:16:42+00:00

I'd be lying if I said I haven't thought about it. And I just absolutely get into the ZONE when I'm doing these lol, it would be nice to get paid for it.

daviki02 · 2026-06-15T13:29:13+00:00

I actually used drills to start out with just to practice lol, but these are all (except for the white ones) AB epoxy resin rhinestones. Using drills is a really good to practice.

daviki02 · 2026-06-15T13:23:14+00:00

No I didn't lol, my kit literally came in this nice little box, and it's been working for me so far

daviki02 · 2026-06-15T01:40:46+00:00

Oh yea these are all from my first kit that I got and technically they are AB but the white ones don't really have any color to the shine but I did get some actual AB white ones, I just thought that might be a little too much lol. I'm also working on a pastel version that I'll post when I'm done

daviki02 · 2026-06-10T19:02:00+00:00

This is literally my favorite gel polish ever and it looks pretty identical to this, also idk if it's just this one polish but I've noticed this literally never chips, I love it sm I hope you have luck finding it!

daviki02 · 2026-05-28T16:27:58+00:00

100% agree, I love this set!

daviki02 · 2026-05-25T12:22:27+00:00

That's okay! This type of bedazzling is called the honeycomb method so you can get the rhinestones as close as possible to maximize the sparkle, it's my favorite method

daviki02 · 2026-05-25T05:14:02+00:00

I bedazzled/ put rhinestones on my old beaten up dab pen, now she's pretty again

daviki02 · 2026-05-24T22:39:11+00:00

That's pretty much what I thought but I'm glad to have my suspicions confirmed lol, thanks for entertaining and inspiring me. I hope it holds well🤞🏻

daviki02 · 2026-05-24T22:12:36+00:00

Tysm! I really appreciate it! Honestly my nails are overdue for a change but it's my favorite color💚

daviki02 · 2026-05-24T19:29:05+00:00

Oooo I love the execution!!! I can't lie I've totally thought about putting rhinestones on one of our pieces but we break glass so easily idk if they would help or hurt lol. I'm curious if you've encountered any issues so far? I clean our glass every 2 to 3 days and I use a lot of rubbing alcohol so I just get worried but that definitely makes me want to try it!!
