Usage Instructions
These versatile beads can be used for various DIY projects. Below are general instructions, with a focus on diamond painting application:
For Diamond Painting:
- Identify the Area: Refer to your diamond painting chart to identify the symbol corresponding to the color of beads you wish to apply.
- Pour Beads into Tray: Pour a small amount of the required color beads into a diamond painting tray. Gently shake the tray to align the beads with their flat bottoms facing down.
- Pick Up Beads: Dip the tip of your diamond painting pen into wax or gel to make it sticky. Use the pen to pick up a single bead from the tray.
- Apply to Canvas: Carefully place the bead onto the corresponding symbol on your adhesive canvas. The flat bottom of the bead will adhere securely.
- Repeat: Continue this process until the desired area is covered.

Maintenance and Storage
Proper maintenance and storage will ensure the longevity and usability of your Sasylvia diamond painting beads.
- Keep Dry: Store beads in a dry environment to prevent moisture damage.
- Organize by Color: Always return unused beads to their designated bags or compartments to maintain organization and prevent color mixing.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Store away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures, which could potentially affect the resin material or color vibrancy over time.
- Keep Sealed: Ensure all bead containers or bags are properly sealed to prevent spills and dust accumulation.
Troubleshooting
Here are some common issues and their solutions:
| Issue | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Beads not sticking to canvas. | Pen tip not sticky enough; canvas adhesive has lost tackiness; dust on canvas. | Replenish wax/gel on pen tip. Ensure canvas is clean before starting. If canvas adhesive is compromised, a new canvas may be needed. |
| Colors appear slightly different from expectation. | Screen display variations; subtle natural variations in resin color. | Note that slight color differences may occur due to screen displays. The 60 colors are designed to cover a wide spectrum. |
| Beads are difficult to pick up. | Beads not oriented correctly in tray; pen tip issue. | Gently shake the tray to ensure beads are flat-side down. Check pen tip for sufficient stickiness. |
