Diamond Painting 

  • Tabatha Tuskey
  • 11 Hours
  • TH 12-1 p.m.
  • May 22-July 31

Diamond painting (also known as crystal art) is the process of applying tiny resin rhinestones (known as "diamonds") to a pre-printed design – usually on an adhesive board – to create sparkling, vibrant and uplifting pieces of mosaic-style art. Not only does it meet the need to escape from everyday life, but it allows you to feel like an artist–even if there's not a creative bone in your body. Overall, they're fun, engaging and also beautiful enough to hang on the wall. But diamond painting also offers a number of other amazing advantages–from reducing stress and anxiety to being a common interest that allows you to meet new people and make new friends. More than a simple hobby, diamond painting provides a variety of mental and physical health benefits too. Stimulates creativity, boost artistic confidence, fine-tunes motor skills, and unplugs you from technology. Tabatha has kits available but you are welcome to purchase and bring your own kit to class. Meeting in the library.
