It is easy to create a custom diamond painting from your own photo, we show you how! 

 

Diamond painting is a fun and rewarding hobby that has gained popularity in recent years. It involves using small diamond-shaped beads to create a sparkling and vibrant image. While many diamond painting designs are available on our website, creating a custom diamond painting can add a personal touch and emotions to your finished masterpiece. 

With Figured’Art, it is easy to create your personalised diamond painting from your own photo! Here are some tips to on how to make the best of your new project!

 

Choose Your photo for your custom diamond painting

 

 

The first step in creating a custom diamond painting is to choose your image. This could be a photograph of a loved one, a landscape or scenery that you find beautiful, or any other image that speaks to you. The key is to choose an image that has clear lines and defined areas of color, as this will make it easier to create a diamond painting from it. Here are few things to consider when choosing your photo for your custom diamond painting:

• High-quality photo: The first and foremost thing to consider while choosing a photo for your personalised diamond painting is its quality. You need to make sure that the photo is high-resolution and clear. A blurry or low-quality photo will not give you a clear diamond painting image, and it will be challenging to distinguish the different shades and colors.

• Good contrast: The contrast in the photo refers to the difference between the light and dark areas of the image. Photos with good contrast will help you distinguish between different shades of the same color, making your diamond painting look more detailed and realistic.

 

 

• A simple subject: Complex photos with too many details can make it difficult to create a diamond painting that captures the essence of the photo. When selecting a photo, look for a simple subject with minimal distractions. This will help you focus on the main elements of the photo and create a more polished diamond painting.

• Bright colors: Diamond paintings look best when they have bright and vivid colors. When selecting a photo, choose one that has a variety of bright colors. This will give your diamond painting more depth and make it more visually appealing.

• Sentimental value: When you create a custom diamond painting, you are creating a piece of art that is unique to you. It is essential to choose a photo that has sentimental value to you, such as a family photo or a picture of a beloved pet. This will make your diamond painting even more special and meaningful to you.

 

• Skill level: Diamond painting can be a time-consuming process, so it's important to choose a photo that suits your skill level. If you are a beginner, start with a simple photo with fewer colors and fewer details. As you gain more experience, you can work on more complex photos with more details and colors.

 

 

CHOOSE THE SIZE OF YOUR CUSTOM DIAMOND PAINTING

 

Once you have chosen your image, it is now time to upload it on the Figured'Art website! We have a user-friendly interface that allows you to upload your image and customise the size of your diamond painting. The size you choose can greatly affect the level of detail in the final product, as well as the time and effort required to complete it. 

The level of detail in your image should be a major factor in determining the size of your custom diamond painting. If your image has a lot of fine details, choosing a larger size will allow for more space for those details to be included in the final product. The bigger your diamond painting size is, the sharper the details will be. On the other hand, if your image has fewer details, a smaller size may be sufficient.

 

 

It is also important to consider where you plan to display your custom diamond painting and the space you have available. If you have limited wall space, a smaller size may be more suitable. If you have a large wall to fill, a larger size may be more appropriate.

But the larger the size of the diamond painting, the more time and effort it will require to complete. If you are a beginner or have limited time available, it may be best to choose a smaller size. This will allow you to complete the project more quickly and with less frustration.

 

CHOOSE THE DIAMOND SHAPE FOR YOUR PERSONALISED DIAMOND PAINTING

 

When it comes to ordering a custom diamond painting, choosing the right diamond shape is an important consideration. At Figured’Art we give you the choice between round and square 5D diamonds. There is no right or wrong choice when it comes to diamond shape - it all comes down to your personal preference and the details of your image.

If your image has a lot of small details, you may want to consider using square diamonds. Because they have straight edges, they can fit together more tightly, which allows for more precision in the final image. However, if your image is more abstract or has larger areas of color, round diamonds may be a better choice.

Also, if you are looking to complete your diamond painting quickly, round diamonds may be the way to go. They are generally easier and faster to place than square diamonds because they don't require as much precision. 

The shape you choose ultimately comes down to personal preference. Some people prefer the rounded edges of the round diamonds, while others prefer the sharp edges of the square diamonds. Consider what you find visually appealing and what will look best with the image you have chosen for your custom diamond painting.

In the end, whether you choose round or square diamonds, the most important thing is to have fun and enjoy the process of creating a beautiful piece of art.

You now have all the keys to start choose your image and start your custom diamond painting! With a little bit of planning and consideration, you can create a beautiful and personalised diamond painting that you will cherish for years to come!
