There’s nothing more frustrating than reaching the last corner of a diamond painting and realising you’re a few drills short. Our spare square drills are sold individually by DMC colour, so you can top up a single shade rather than buying a whole new kit. This page covers DMC 150 to 646, which is 98 shades in total.
Find your DMC number
Our full square drill range is split across five pages so the colour lists stay manageable. Check the DMC number on your canvas chart, then head to the right page.
Not sure which shade you need? Send us the DMC number and we’ll point you to the right page.
Square drills or round drills
Both do the same job, they just give a different finish.
-
Square drills - these sit flush against each other with no canvas showing through, which gives a sharp, fully tiled look. They take a little more care to line up, and the finished piece has a lovely crisp edge to it.
-
Round drills - these are quicker to place and more forgiving if you are slightly off centre, leaving small gaps between each one for a softer, more sparkly effect.
These are square diamond drills, so they are the right choice for a square drill canvas. Our own diamond art painting kits are supplied with round drills, so do check what your canvas takes before ordering.
