How to Choose Between a Square and Round Drill
If you are new to the world of diamond painting, you are about to embark on an exciting journey that will certainly provide you with hours of enjoyment while expressing your artistic talent. But best of all, when you are finished, you will have an amazing piece of art to proudly display in your home or office! Plus, you will have the satisfaction of knowing that you created it yourself. And yes, anyone can do it!
The Physics of Diamonds
Often called 5D DIAMONDS due to the geometry of their multi-faceted surface, round diamonds and square diamonds have different angled planes that reflect light to give the finished piece a sparkling effect. You may even find that they sparkle like a disco ball, but without the annoying repetitive beat and bad hairstyles!
Diamonds are also commonly referred to as 'drills', in reference to the shape of each individual diamond that you will apply to your canvas.

Square VS. Round Diamonds: What is the difference?

Easy is Fun
Round diamonds are generally preferred by beginners, as they are easier and quicker to pick up and place on the canvas with the applicator.
Double the Sparkle
Round diamonds are known for having a shinier appearance, especially on larger paintings. Our 26-facet round diamonds are cut differently from our competitors. They are designed to have MORE sparkle than any other diamond on the market, as others only have 13 facets. Double the facets, double the brilliance!

The Perfect Fit
Square type diamonds fit together very perfectly, with no gaps, and are preferred when creating larger canvases.
The 'Clicking'
Another feature that people seem to really enjoy about Square Diamonds is the satisfying sound they make when you are about to finish and fill in the gaps. This sensation has been compared to popping bubble wrap, which is undoubtedly one of life's greatest pleasures!

Square VS. Round Diamonds: Which is better?
With so many unique diamond art kits to choose from, the possibilities are endless!
Depending on your skill level, you may want to choose a drill that is easiest for you to work with. As we have seen, round diamonds can be easier to handle at first, but square diamonds allow for a more complete painting even though they require more effort to place. The choice is yours!
