About This Butterfly Design
A Butterfly study built on a butterfly with wings held open, each panel showing graded colour from deep centre to translucent edge, antennae and body picked out in fine detail. The palette stays in iridescent blues and violets shifting toward warm orange at the wing edges, and the piece keeps a delicate and alive register throughout. Butterfly motifs work in the transitional spaces of a home — the places that do not need a theme, just something with life in it. It is for people who relax through repetitive, hands-busy work. Designed for hallways and entryways, it holds up as decor rather than as something you finish and put in a drawer. Reference Q4326. Wing panels are worked as separate colour zones, so the shimmer shifts as you move past the finished piece Put simply, butterfly motifs work in the transitional spaces of a home — the places that do not need a theme, just something with life in it.
butterfly motifs work in the transitional spaces of a home — the places that do not need a theme, just something with life in it. Placed in hallways and entryways, it reads as part of the room rather than an addition to it.

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.
- Seat the canvas in its frame, or store it flat, once the surface has been pressed.
Finish it at an unhurried pace, then frame it — the canvas is built to be displayed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is anything in the diamond painting kit sold separately?
Yes. The Butterfly diamond painting kit ships complete with everything shown in the product images, so there is nothing else to source, plus the DOTZSO resin drills, tray, applicator pen, wax caddy and pictorial instructions. Nothing else needs sourcing. Reference Q4326.
How does the Butterfly diamond painting kit perform long term?
Once the drills are seated and the surface is sealed, the Butterfly design holds under normal use. The sealed surface handles normal handling, and the sealing step is the single biggest factor in how long the finish lasts. Regular use does not compromise the Butterfly surface.
Does the Butterfly finish need any special treatment?
Wipe with a damp cloth and dry immediately. Do not submerge it or put it through a dishwasher — the adhesive layer under the drills is not built for a soak. For the Butterfly palette, iridescent blues and violets shifting toward warm orange at the wing edges tones show dust less than pale grounds, so a light pass is usually enough. Dust with a dry cloth rather than a wet one where possible.
How even is the coverage on the Butterfly diamond painting kit?
The round resin drills are colour-sorted and matched to the printed symbol key. The Butterfly artwork is drawn so that a butterfly with wings held open reads clearly at any distance. The whole Butterfly surface carries the drilled finish.
How demanding is the Butterfly project time-wise?
Plan for two to four evenings, depending on the size of the canvas. The Butterfly design is delicate and alive, which tends to make it easier to work in short sessions. Expect the Butterfly piece to span several relaxed sessions.
How much practice does the Butterfly diamond painting kit need?
Yes. The symbol key is printed directly on the canvas and the pictorial instructions walk through the whole process, so no prior diamond painting experience is needed. The Butterfly layout is delicate and alive, which helps on a first attempt. There is nothing further to source before starting.

This was my first full size canvas and it turned out better than I hoped. The drills have a nice sparkle to them, not dull or flat. My friends all want one now. Will be back for more.

I found it really peaceful to focus on one small area at a time. The glue picked up a bit of dust over the weeks I worked on it. Once it was framed it really pulled the room together. Overall a good experience.

Took me a few weeks of evenings and I loved every minute. The canvas came rolled, and it flattened out with no creases. I worked on this during my lunch breaks and it made the days feel better. Once framed it looks like something you’d buy in a gallery. Can’t wait to start the next one.

This one caught my eye and I’m glad it did. No missing colors and no shortage on the ones used most. Everything I needed was in the box – pen, wax, tray and tweezers. Keeps my hands busy during long flights and hotel evenings. I wish the printed legend was a little bigger. Made this as a gift for my parents’ anniversary. Still worth it overall.
Logan D. (verified owner) –
Ordered it after seeing one a friend finished, and I get the appeal now. The drills cover edge to edge with no bald spots. I do a section after work with a cup of tea and it’s a nice way to unwind. Can’t wait to start the next one.

The printed canvas is crisp and the symbols are easy to read. The canvas is a good weight and the print underneath is detailed. Instructions were pretty minimal, though there are plenty of tutorials online. I brought it on a week at the lake and finished most of it there. Already ordered another one from DOTZSO. Would order again despite the small issues.
Linda N. (verified owner) –
This was my first full size canvas and it turned out better than I hoped. The drills came in labeled bags, which made sorting painless. I do it at the kitchen table while dinner simmers. Once framed it looks like something you’d buy in a gallery. Loved it, no regrets.
Alejandro G. (verified owner) –
This was my first diamond painting kit and I’m officially hooked. The canvas didn’t dry out over the weeks I worked on it. The butterfly piece really pulls the room together once it’s hung. Good weight to the materials, it doesn’t feel cheap. I set it up next to the window and do a few rows whenever the light is good. Really proud to have this hanging in the house. This shop has a repeat customer in me.

This one caught my eye and I’m glad it did. Colors match the listing photo really closely. It was worth every evening I spent on it. I had to press the canvas under books overnight before starting. Minor things, but I’d still buy it again.
Albert Clayton –
Been doing these for about two years and this kit is solid. The higher color count really shows in the finished piece. It’s the nicest thing I’ve made so far. Instructions were pretty minimal, though there are plenty of tutorials online. Still a solid purchase.

This kept me busy through the whole winter. The sparkle on these drills is genuinely nice. Once it was framed it really pulled the room together. I’ll be ordering more.

Took it slow, a section at a time, and really enjoyed the process. The canvas printing is crisp and the symbols are easy to read, even in low light. Extra drills were included for every color, which I appreciated. This is the kind of craft that’s genuinely calming after a hectic day. I had to press the canvas under books overnight before starting. It’s hanging in the lake house now and looks great. I’d recommend it with that one note.
Esther Gray (verified owner) –
I’ve had my eye on this design since last season. The drills cover edge to edge with no bald spots. I gave one to my parents and they were speechless. The wax ran low before I finished the last section. Minor quibbles aside, I’d buy it again.

Was looking for something to do with my hands in the evenings. The winged piece really pulls the room together once it’s hung. The canvas came rolled, and it flattened out with no creases. Nice to have something that gets me off my phone for a while. It’s framed and hanging in our the stairwell now. I wish the printed legend was a little bigger. A solid purchase with a couple of notes.

This is the largest kit I’ve done and it turned out beautifully. Full drill coverage means no blank canvas showing through. I do this instead of scrolling and feel much better for it. A great addition to my collection.
Daniel V. (verified owner) –
I’ve done a handful of these now and this one is up there with the best. It’s hanging in the kitchen now and looks great. Some colors came with barely any extras, though I didn’t run out. Minor things, but I’d still buy it again.

The color range on this one is impressive. Symbols are readable even in the busiest sections. I had to press the canvas under books overnight before starting. Perfect for winding down before bed, much better than watching another show. Everyone who sees it asks how long it took. Still worth it overall.

Ordered it after seeing one a friend finished, and I get the appeal now. Symbol letters are small but legible, and the legend helped a lot. I like having something mindful to do that doesn’t need a screen. Looks lovely framed and hung up. Loved it, no regrets.
Sonia May (verified owner) –
My sister got me into these and this is my latest one. There’s enough margin on the edges for framing. It’s become my evening ritual – an hour of this and I feel settled. It’s hanging in the kitchen now and looks great. Exactly what I was hoping for.
Tyler Henderson (verified owner) –
So glad I added this one to my cart. The canvas is a good weight with a detailed print underneath. This is a lovely butterfly piece for the price. Glue coverage was even, no dry patches anywhere. It’s my go-to when I want something enjoyable that doesn’t take much thought. I’m really proud of how it turned out. Highly recommend.
