Why This Bell Pendant Earns Its Place on Display
This Bell piece is about a pair of bells hung from a ribbon with a bow at the crown, clappers visible below the rims and highlights catching the curved metal, and it is finished in warm brass and antique gold with rich red ribbon against a deep green ground. Expect traditional and bright, not spectacle. Bell imagery belongs to the older, more traditional end of Christmas decor, and the ribbon is what ties it to the season. It is for makers who want a seasonal project they can finish in a few evenings. Designed for Christmas door and wall decor, it holds up as decor rather than as something you finish and put in a drawer. Reference GH012-3. Bell imagery belongs to the older, more traditional end of Christmas decor, and the ribbon is what ties it to the season Which is the harder half of the job, and it is done here.
bell imagery belongs to the older, more traditional end of Christmas decor, and the ribbon is what ties it to the season. It slots into Christmas door and wall decor because the traditional palette is doing the talking.
DOTZSO makes these pendants for people who would rather hang something made than something bought. What is in the box: the printed pendant blank, DOTZSO resin drills, a sorting tray, a comfort-grip applicator pen, a wax caddy, a hanging ribbon and a pictorial sheet.
The pendant blank is the part that matters. It is rigid enough to hold its shape on a door or a branch without curling at the edges.
The whole face is worked, so no section looks like an afterthought.

How to Make It
- Lay the printed pendant blank flat and let it settle before starting.
- 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 around the blank.
- Continue until the face is covered, then press the finished surface flat with a book to seat every drill.
- Attach the ribbon loop once the surface is sealed, then hang the piece.
Complete it over a few sessions, then hang the piece and leave it up through the season.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is anything in the hanging pendant kit sold separately?
Yes. The Bell hanging pendant kit ships complete with the ribbon loop ready to attach, so the piece can hang as soon as the surface is sealed, plus the DOTZSO resin drills, tray, applicator pen, wax caddy and pictorial instructions. Nothing else needs sourcing. Reference GH012-3.
Does the Bell hanging pendant kit stand up to being used rather than just displayed?
Once the drills are seated and the surface is sealed, the Bell design holds under normal use. It is built for indoor use; a covered porch is fine, and the sealing step is the single biggest factor in how long the finish lasts. The Bell surface tolerates being picked up and moved.
Does the Bell hanging pendant kit need special care?
Dust with a dry, soft brush; keep it out of prolonged direct sun and rain — the adhesive layer under the drills is not built for a soak. For the Bell palette, warm brass and antique gold tones show dust less than pale grounds, so a light pass is usually enough. A microfibre cloth works well on the Bell surface.
Does the Bell artwork rely on printed areas as well as drills?
The face is drilled across the whole blank, so the finished piece has complete coverage without bare board showing. The Bell artwork is drawn so that a pair of bells hung from a ribbon with a bow at the crown reads clearly at any distance. The Bell surface is worked as one continuous piece.
What is the pace like on the Bell hanging pendant kit?
Roughly one to two evenings for most people, depending on the size of the blank. The Bell design is traditional and bright, which tends to make it easier to work in short sessions. The Bell pattern is easy to work in short bursts.
How much practice does the Bell hanging pendant kit need?
Yes. The symbol key is printed directly on the pendant blank and the pictorial instructions walk through the whole process, so no prior diamond painting experience is needed. The Bell layout is traditional and bright, which helps on a first attempt. The kit is complete on delivery.

I’ve tried a few brands and this one holds up well. Nice and light, won’t pull on the curtain rod. Perfect for winding down before bed, much better than watching another show. Everyone who sees it asks how long it took. Very happy with this purchase.
Sarah L. (verified owner) –
Lightweight and easy to hang, which I appreciated. The drills have a nice sparkle to them, not dull or flat. Perfect for a cozy evening in when you want to keep your hands busy. Thumbs up from our whole family.
Diego D. (verified owner) –
These are lovely little pieces – delicate but not flimsy. The holiday detail comes together really nicely once it’s finished. Would make a really nice gift, and it arrives boxed nicely. Happy customer here.
Erin A. (verified owner) –
These are lovely little pieces – delicate but not flimsy. Nothing arrived damaged, and everything was sealed properly. The drills sit nice and flush, no gaps showing the surface underneath. I keep it set up on a side table and do a bit whenever I have ten minutes. Already ordered another one from DOTZSO. Exactly what I was hoping for.
Angela J. (verified owner) –
My third kit from this shop and still really pleased. Really happy with the end result. Solid kit, would order again.
Andrea Helms (verified owner) –
Really charming little project with a big payoff. The design reads clearly even from across the room. It makes washing dishes a little nicer. Some colors came with barely any extras, though I didn’t run out. Would order again despite the small issues.
QuietCraftClub –
Hung this in the kitchen window and it catches the light beautifully. Nothing was crushed or bent in transit. Everything I needed was in the box – pen, wax, tray and tweezers. Really calming, repetitive work, and satisfying when a section is finished. I made several and hung them along the porch. Would buy again in a heartbeat.
Heather A. (verified owner) –
I keep coming back to this shop because the quality is consistent. The edges are smooth, no sharp bits. I made several and hung them along the porch. Would have liked a small suction hook included. Happy with it, with a few caveats.
Brendan Mcdonald (verified owner) –
Bought this to brighten up a dull kitchen window. Looks lovely on the patio door. Worth picking up.
PorchSwingPam (verified owner) –
Such a nice little project to have on the go. The drills are bright and consistent in size, no weird off-color batches. The festive pattern is what made me choose this one. Everyone who sees it asks how long it took. The hanging string is a little short. Happy with it, with one small caveat.
Alice Sanford (verified owner) –
So much prettier in person once you get it up in a window. It photographs well, which is a bonus for sharing. This exceeded what I expected.
Carla Gray (verified owner) –
I’ve finished four of these now and this might be my favorite. The kit came with a comfortable pen and enough wax for the whole project. The holiday motif makes it feel special. It’s a calm, repetitive hobby and that’s exactly what I wanted. Easy recommendation.
Kelley Hubbard (verified owner) –
I hung this in the kitchen window and the light through it is lovely. The colors are vivid when the sun comes through. Genuinely peaceful to work on one row at a time. This is a lovely holiday piece for the price. One hanging loop was slightly bent in transit. Finished piece looks even better in person than in the listing photos. Overall a good experience.
Lewis Palmer (verified owner) –
The sunlight through the drills is gorgeous in the morning. The colors come through beautifully when the sun hits. Nothing was damaged in shipping and the packaging was neat. The work is repetitive in a good way. It catches the light in a way photos don’t do justice. The festive element makes it feel personal. One edge was slightly rough before I sanded it. Would recommend it with those notes.
Rosemarie Forsythe (verified owner) –
Grabbed this on a whim after a long week. Lightweight but the acrylic doesn’t feel brittle. I take it to my book club and work on it while we chat. Loved it, no regrets.
Merle Everett (verified owner) –
This is a small project with a big payoff once it’s hanging. Each color was in its own pouch, clearly numbered. It brightens up a window that used to look bare. It’s earned a permanent spot here.
Juanita Gould (verified owner) –
I made these as fall ornaments and they looked lovely on the tree. I’m really proud of how it turned out. No complaints at all.

Hung this in the kitchen window and it catches the light beautifully. Both sides are finished, so it looks good from inside and outside. Really calming, repetitive work, and satisfying when a section is finished. Highly recommend.
Garrett H. (verified owner) –
Wasn’t sure what to expect, but I’m very happy with it. It hangs straight, doesn’t twist or curl to one side. I did this with my husband on the weekends and we both got into it. Really pleased with this one.
Michell Presley (verified owner) –
Lightweight and easy to hang, which I appreciated. The sparkle on these drills is genuinely nice. The kit came complete, nothing extra needed from the craft store. Genuinely peaceful to work on one row at a time. It’s earned a spot on the wall. I’ll be ordering more.
Tyler Mcmillan –
Made these for gifts and everyone adored them. Everything felt well made, from the tools to the drills. I work on it while listening to an audiobook and the time just disappears. The light through it in the afternoon is beautiful. This shop has a repeat customer in me.
Marta Haskins (verified owner) –
I hung mine where the morning sun hits it. The hanging hole is cleanly finished with no cracking. No missing colors and no shortage on the ones used most. I found it genuinely enjoyable rather than just something to finish. It’s the first thing I see coming down the stairs. Couldn’t be happier with it.
Stephen Dodson (verified owner) –
I ordered one for each window and they’re all beautiful. Lightweight but the acrylic doesn’t feel brittle. Nice to have a hobby that leaves you calmer than you started. It looks great from a distance and holds up close. Would order again in a heartbeat.
Marcus B. (verified owner) –
Exactly what the listing described, no surprises. The finish is smooth and catches light from every angle. I picked the Christmas version and the colors are lovely. It’s become my evening ritual – an hour of this and I feel settled. Would make a really nice gift, and it arrives boxed nicely. I’ll be ordering more.
Horace Byers (verified owner) –
Made a few for gifts and kept one for myself. The design reads clearly even from across the room. One bag of drills had come open in transit. This is a lovely Christmas piece for the price. Keeps my hands busy while I watch something. Small things aside, it’s a good buy.
Ryan Bagley (verified owner) –
This showed up right when I needed a quiet evening activity. It’s the piece everyone asks about when they visit. Shipping took a few days longer than I expected. Good enough that I’d buy another.
Alan Neal (verified owner) –
Ordered this for my craft room and it was a perfect addition. The wax and pen that came with it worked fine right out of the box. I did this with my husband’s boss on the weekends and we both got into it. It makes the whole window feel more cheerful. Recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing craft.
Patti Mclean (verified owner) –
A sweet project that makes the room feel warmer. Lightweight but the acrylic doesn’t feel brittle. Everything was bagged and labeled, so setup took five minutes. I take it to my book club and work on it while we chat. Everyone who sees it asks where it came from. Would buy again in a heartbeat.
Roosevelt Bradley (verified owner) –
These are such charming little pieces. Great value considering how many hours of enjoyment it gave me. The artwork looks even better in person than the photos. Only small gripe is that a few drills had little burrs on them. I’d recommend it with that one note.
PorchLightCrafts (verified owner) –
The sunlight through the drills is gorgeous in the morning. Good size, noticeable but not overwhelming in the window. I made several and hung them along the porch. Five stars from me.
Imogene Goldberg (verified owner) –
The light through this one is really something. Good size, noticeable but not overwhelming in the window. I work on it after dinner and it helps me switch off. It looks like something from a home decor shop. Better than I expected.
Leo L. (verified owner) –
Ordered two kits, this was the one I finished first. The festive palette is softer in person, which I actually prefer. Finish is even and the whole thing looks tidy once you’re done. I keep it set up on a side table and do a bit whenever I have ten minutes. Gave it to my mother-in-law as a gift and it was a big hit. Instructions were pretty minimal, though there are plenty of tutorials online. Still worth it overall.
Michael Galloway (verified owner) –
Really charming little project with a big payoff. The colors come through beautifully when the sun hits. I finished it faster than I expected because I kept coming back to it. It looks lovely from both sides. A lovely little purchase.
SparkleMom (verified owner) –
Bought it as a starter kit for myself and it worked out great. The edges are smooth, no sharp bits. I love how the holiday colors turned out. It’s on the bathroom window and the morning light is lovely. Wish there were two hanging holes for stability. Happy with it, with a few caveats.
Douglas Knox (verified owner) –

I hung mine where the morning sun hits it. If this style appeals to you, it delivers. The kit came complete, nothing extra needed from the craft store. The finished work looks considered, not like a craft project. Glad I went with this one.
Valeria Waters –
Bought it as a starter kit for myself and it worked out great. Worth the time it took. The adhesive picked up a bit of dust while I was working over several days. The artwork looks even better in person than the photos. Good kit overall, just a couple of small things.
Lance Forsythe (verified owner) –
The sunlight through the drills is gorgeous in the morning. The colors are true to the listing photos. Packaging was tidy and nothing had spilled in transit. I did this with my grandson on the weekends and we both got into it. My daughter wants one now after seeing mine. Delighted with it.

Wilson Williams (verified owner) –
Hung this in the kitchen window and it catches the light beautifully. The clear acrylic lets plenty of light through. I went with the Christmas version and the colors are lovely. I brought it on a weekend trip and finished most of it there. The finished piece looks far better than I expected. Very pleased overall.
StudioSnippets (verified owner) –
I put one in every window in the front room. The tray held more than enough drills at a time. It’s lighter than I expected, moves a lot in a draft. It adds a bit of color to a plain window. Minor quibbles aside, I’d buy it again.
Audrey Newton (verified owner) –
I have one hanging by the back door and it makes me smile every day. The release paper peeled back cleanly without tearing. A few drills had rough edges that needed picking off. The colors work together better than I expected. Good enough that I’d buy another.
Denise Wagner (verified owner) –
Really nice kit, especially for the money. Great value for what you get. One bag of drills had come open in transit. Minor quibbles aside, I’d buy it again.
