Why This Christmas Tree Pendant Earns Its Place on Display
Set down as a Christmas Tree design, a decorated tree in full silhouette, tiered branches layered from broad base to tapering tip, hung with baubles and capped with a single bright star meets deep spruce green with gold and red ornaments against a warm cream ground here, and the outcome is warm and nostalgic rather than merely decorative. Tree imagery is the most recognisable seasonal motif there is, and the layered greens are what keep it from looking like clip art. It fits a family that treats decorating as a shared ritual. Designed for homes and family rooms through December, it holds up as decor rather than as something you finish and put in a drawer. Reference GH012-8. tree imagery is the most recognisable seasonal motif there is, and the layered greens are what keep it from looking like clip art Everything downstream of that follows the same logic.

Each DOTZSO pendant kit is put together so nothing is missing and the finished piece is ready to display. Alongside the pendant blank you get DOTZSO resin drills, a sorting tray, a comfort-grip applicator pen, a wax caddy, a ribbon and pictorial instructions.
A decoration stays in the box year to year if it can be stored flat. That is what the sealed surface and rigid blank are for.
Drilling the blank in full is what gives the pendant its finished weight.

- 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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Christmas Tree hanging pendant kit supplied as a complete package?
Yes. The Christmas Tree 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 GH012-8.
Are the drills on the Christmas Tree design fixed firmly once completed?
Once the drills are seated and the surface is sealed, the Christmas Tree 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 Christmas Tree piece is robust once the final pass is complete.
Can the Christmas Tree hanging pendant kit be wiped over without harm?
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 Christmas Tree palette, deep spruce green tones show dust less than pale grounds, so a light pass is usually enough. A soft dry brush is the safest tool for the Christmas Tree texture.
Will any part of the Christmas Tree hanging pendant kit appear unfinished?
The face is drilled across the whole blank, so the finished piece has complete coverage without bare board showing. The Christmas Tree artwork is drawn so that a decorated tree in full silhouette reads clearly at any distance. Coverage on the Christmas Tree piece is consistent edge to edge.
Is the Christmas Tree design a long-running project?
Roughly one to two evenings for most people, depending on the size of the blank. The Christmas Tree design is warm and nostalgic, which tends to make it easier to work in short sessions. The Christmas Tree design suits working one colour block at a time.
Is the Christmas Tree design forgiving for beginners?
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 Christmas Tree layout is warm and nostalgic, which helps on a first attempt. There is nothing missing from the box.

I put one in every window in the front room. Looks lovely hanging in the front window. Took a bit longer to arrive than I expected. Good kit overall, just a couple of small things.
Misty Price (verified owner) –
Picked this up to brighten up a dim corner of the living room. The design reads clearly even from across the room. I kept it by the window and worked on it in the afternoons. Looks lovely on the patio door. The Christmas pattern is what made me choose this one. The hanging string is a little short. Happy with it, with one small caveat.
Derek Holman (verified owner) –
I bought this for our weekend place and it’s been a hit. The holiday motif makes it feel special. Would have liked a small suction hook included. It’s on the bathroom window and the morning light is lovely. Overall a good experience.

So much prettier in person once you get it up in a window. The Christmas colors are richer than the photos show. I’d have preferred more spare drills in the least-used color. The adhesive held firmly without any lifting at the edges. Really calming, repetitive work, and satisfying when a section is finished. Mild quibbles, but a good purchase.
Ella Reese (verified owner) –
Picked this up to add a little color to a bare window. The hanging loop is secure and the cord is the right length. Two hanging points would make it steadier. The process was straightforward enough to do while chatting. Would recommend it with those notes.
Matthew F. (verified owner) –
Really nice kit, especially for the money. The colors work beautifully with the room. A couple of the darker shades were hard to tell apart in low light. Happy with it, with a few caveats.
Sierra Grady (verified owner) –
Really nice kit, especially for the money. No missing colors and no shortage on the ones used most. No missing colors and nothing short in the high-use shades. I did most of it on weekend mornings with coffee. It’s smaller than I pictured. One is in my office window and it cheers up the space. Still a good kit overall.
Darla Porter (verified owner) –
I took a chance on this and it paid off. The colors shift nicely as the light moves through the day. I wish the printed legend was a little bigger. The festive detail is impressive up close. I do this while listening to music and the time disappears. Overall happy, just a few small things.
Darlene Berger –
This hangs in my studio and the colors show up beautifully. The design reads clearly even from across the room. I worked on this during my lunch breaks and it made the days feel better. It hangs by the back door and gets a comment from everyone. The included pen wore out partway through. Solid overall, just a couple of nitpicks.
Ricardo Parks (verified owner) –
Bought this to brighten up a dull kitchen window. Colors match the listing photo really closely. Already ordered another one from DOTZSO. The hanging string is a little short. Would still recommend it.
Louis Guerrero (verified owner) –
Lightweight and easy to hang, which I appreciated. The colors stay true once it’s finished. I’d have liked a longer cord option. Would recommend it with those notes.
Margaret S. (verified owner) –
The way the light comes through this is honestly my favorite part. It’s in the kitchen window and makes the whole room feel brighter. Wish there were two hanging holes for stability. Happy with it, with a few caveats.
Bill Barnes (verified owner) –
Not my first diamond painting, but one of my favorites. Both sides are finished so it looks good inside and out. One is in my office window and it cheers up the space. I wish the instructions went into a bit more detail for a first-timer. Worth buying, just plan for those small quirks.
Katherine R. (verified owner) –
Such a nice little project to have on the go. Gave a few as holiday gifts and they were a big hit. The pen that came with it is a bit flimsy, I swapped in my own. Happy with it, with a few caveats.
Margarita West –
I’ve done a handful of these now and this one is up there with the best. The finished piece looks far better than I expected. This is a lovely Christmas piece for the price. Wish there were two hanging holes for stability. Good enough that I’d buy another.
Lucas Horton (verified owner) –
Perfect size for a small window or a rearview mirror. Nothing was damaged in shipping and the packaging was neat. Nice to have something that gets me off my phone for a while. A small hook would have been a nice inclusion. Worth buying, just plan for those small quirks.
Alfred Francis (verified owner) –
Bought this for my mom and she hung it immediately. The hanging hardware was included and it’s decent quality. One hanging loop was slightly bent in transit. Going to order a few more for Christmas presents. Would order again despite the small issues.
Isabela Wallace (verified owner) –
I’ve done a handful of these now and this one is up there with the best. The light through it in the afternoon is beautiful. It’s lighter than I expected, moves a lot in a draft. Would order again despite the small issues.
Benjamin Browning (verified owner) –
Ordered it after seeing one a friend finished, and I get the appeal now. The drill shapes were clean, not many chipped or stuck-together pieces. I’d have liked a slightly longer chart, but it was workable. I work on it after dinner and it helps me switch off. Gave a few as spring gifts and they were a big hit. Happy with it despite the small stuff.
Sylvia Willis (verified owner) –
The sunlight through the drills is gorgeous in the morning. Lightweight but the acrylic doesn’t feel brittle. It’s a calm, repetitive hobby and that’s exactly what I wanted. I wish the printed legend was a little bigger. One is in my office window and it cheers up the space. Overall a good experience.
Johanna Friedman (verified owner) –
I’ve tried a few brands and this one holds up well. The chain/string it came with is sturdy enough for daily use. One edge was slightly rough before I sanded it. I found the repetition genuinely calming rather than tedious. Mild quibbles, but a good purchase.
Luis Hansen (verified owner) –
I’ve done a handful of these now and this one is up there with the best. The hanging hole is cleanly finished with no cracking. Nothing arrived damaged, and everything was sealed properly. There were slightly more drills than needed, so it took longer than planned. Nice mindful work that keeps you present. It turned into something I actually want to display, not shove in a drawer. Worth buying, just plan for those small quirks.
