Why This Santa Claus Set Earns Its Place on the Table
This Santa Claus design shows a rosy-cheeked Santa varied across ten frames, each with a different hat tilt, beard shape and framed portrait border. The colour work is cherry red, snow white and antique gold — an overall feel that is nostalgic and cosy, never busy. December is the one month the table gets used daily. Ten coasters means the set survives a full holiday season without a second wash cycle. What sets this one apart is the treatment: Ten portrait variations of the same character create a gallery-wall effect on the table — a single Santa would have looked repetitive at this pack size. It is built for families who host through December and decorate the table properly — 10 coasters covers the whole table in one purchase, and the finish is matched across every piece so they read as a set rather than an assortment. Designed for December hosting, it holds up as decor rather than something you finish and put in a drawer. Reference BD535.
Every DOTZSO diamond painting kit is built for people who want the make to feel calm and the result to be something they actually use. Inside the box you get a colour-printed canvas, DOTZSO resin drills, a sorting tray, a comfort-grip applicator pen, a wax caddy and pictorial instructions.

What’s in the Box
- 10 × anti-slip coaster with cork-backed base
- 1 × display holder / stand
- DOTZSO signature resin drills, sorted by colour (with extra drills included)
- Diamond painting tray
- Comfort-grip applicator pen
- Wax caddy

How to Make It
- Unroll the canvas on a flat surface and let it settle under something weighted if it has been rolled tight.
- Find the legend strip and match the first symbol to its drill colour.
- Press the pen tip into the wax caddy, then touch it to a drill — the drill lifts and stays on the tip.
- Set the drill onto the matching printed symbol and press lightly. Work one colour block at a time rather than jumping around the canvas.
- Continue until the design is complete, then press the finished surface flat with a book for an hour to seat every drill.
Finish it over a few evenings, then put it straight to use — the set is designed for daily service, not shelf duty.
Frequently Asked Questions
What comes in the box with this Santa coaster set?
Yes. The Santa coaster set ships complete with the stand shown in the product images, so the coasters have somewhere to live when they are not in use, plus the DOTZSO resin drills, tray, applicator pen, wax caddy and pictorial instructions. Nothing else needs sourcing. Reference BD535.
Is the Santa surface tough enough for daily contact?
Once the drills are seated and the surface is sealed, the Santa design holds under normal use. The cork-backed base is what stops condensation reaching the table, and the sealing step is the single biggest factor in how long the finish lasts. Nothing about the Santa finish is fragile once it has been sealed.
Does the Santa finish need any special treatment?
Wipe with a damp cloth and dry immediately. Do not submerge them or put them through a dishwasher — the adhesive layer under the drills is not built for a soak. For the Santa palette, muted terracotta, dusty blue and soft graphite resolved against an off-white ground tones show dust less than pale grounds, so a light pass is usually enough. Store it dry and the Santa piece needs very little attention.
How much spare time does the Santa design need?
Roughly 30 to 45 minutes each for most people, so a full set is a few evenings rather than one sitting. The Santa design is modern and understated, which tends to make it easier to work in short sessions. The Santa pattern builds up quickly once the colour blocks start.
Do I need experience to do the Santa coaster set?
Yes. The symbol key is printed directly on the cork-backed base and the pictorial instructions walk through the whole process, so no prior diamond painting experience is needed. The Santa layout is modern and understated, which helps on a first attempt. The kit is complete on delivery.

I made one the first night just to see how it went, then did the rest over the week. They sit by the coffee maker and get used constantly. Instructions were pretty minimal, though there are plenty of tutorials online. Happy with it, with a few caveats.

Ordered it after seeing one a friend finished, and I get the appeal now. Each coaster is a good thickness and feels sturdy in the hand. The festive detail comes together really nicely once it’s finished. Great way to slow down at the end of a busy day. I’ll be ordering more.

Perfect little kit – not overwhelming like a full canvas. The Christmas design is even prettier in person than in the photos. Everything I needed was in the box – pen, wax, tray and tweezers. I found it really peaceful to focus on one small area at a time. I bring them out for guests and always get asked about them. Wish the cork backing were a touch thicker. Still a solid purchase.
