Crystal Art Australia - Diamond Painting Kits and Character Buddies
Crystal Art is a diamond painting craft brand that produces kits for creating art by placing small resin gems (faceted crystals) onto adhesive canvas following a colour-coded pattern. Diamond painting is a craft activity where each gem is picked up using a specially-tipped stylus, dipped in wax to pick up the gem, and placed precisely on the matching symbol on the adhesive canvas. When complete, the canvas is covered in gems that create a sparkling, mosaic-like image. Crystal Art products include full diamond painting kits (canvas, gems, stylus) and Crystal Art Buddies - smaller character figures covered in gem art. Peekaboo Baby is an authorised Australian retailer for Crystal Art. Free shipping applies to orders over $129.
Crystal Art is popular as a craft activity for older children from approximately 6 years, teenagers and adults who enjoy detailed craft work. Browse Crystal Art in the arts and crafts category at Peekaboo Baby.
