What you need
Everything the craft takes, and what to check before you pay.
- Essential
Diamond drills
Sold in bags of about 200. Buy by DMC code from your materials list, and round or square to match your chart.
- Essential
Blank adhesive canvas
Printing your own chart onto adhesive canvas is what makes a custom design possible. Check the size matches your pattern in centimetres.
- Optional
Light pad
Optional, but it makes the printed symbols readable through the canvas. A4 suits most designs.
- Essential
Applicator pen and wax
The pen picks a drill up; the wax is what makes it stick to the pen. Kits usually include both — check before buying separately.
- Optional
Drill tray
A grooved tray lines the drills up the right way round. Any cheap one works.
