Why This Butterfly Set Earns Its Place on the Table
This one works 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 into a Butterfly composition, coloured in iridescent blues and violets shifting toward warm orange at the wing edges. The effect is delicate and alive and unfussy. 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 suits a table that gets used every evening and hosts at weekends. Designed for hallways and entryways, it holds up as decor rather than as something you finish and put in a drawer. Reference BD595. butterfly motifs work in the transitional spaces of a home — the places that do not need a theme, just something with life in it. That is the part that matters most here.
butterfly motifs work in the transitional spaces of a home — the places that do not need a theme, just something with life in it. The delicate colouring is what allows it to sit in hallways and entryways without dominating.
A DOTZSO kit is designed so the making is restful and the finished piece earns its place in the room. Alongside the canvas you get DOTZSO resin drills, a sorting tray, a comfort-grip applicator pen, a wax caddy and pictorial instructions.
What makes this a working set rather than a display piece is underneath – a cork backing that takes the moisture before it reaches the furniture.
Matched drills across all 6 pieces mean the set looks deliberate when stacked or spread out.

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 coaster at a time rather than moving across the whole set.
- Complete all coasters, then press each finished surface flat with a book for an hour to seat every drill.
- Finally, leave the set on the table for a few hours before first use so the drills settle fully.
Finish the set at an easy pace, then leave it on the table rather than boxing it up.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this Butterfly coaster set include the tools as well as the project?
Yes. The Butterfly 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 BD595.
Is the Butterfly work fixed securely once complete?
Once the drills are seated and the surface is sealed, the Butterfly 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. It holds its finish as long as it is not left soaking.
What is the best way to dust or clean the Butterfly coaster set?
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 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. There is no need for anything stronger than a damp cloth.
Is the drilling on the Butterfly design continuous?
The drilled finish and palette are matched across the whole set, but each coaster carries its own printed motif. The Butterfly artwork is drawn so that a butterfly with wings held open reads clearly at any distance. The Butterfly drilling runs the full extent of the face.
What is the average time for the Butterfly coaster set?
Roughly 30 to 45 minutes each for most people, so a full set is a few evenings rather than one sitting. The Butterfly design is delicate and alive, which tends to make it easier to work in short sessions. There is no deadline built into the Butterfly project.
Is the Butterfly coaster set a reasonable first diamond painting?
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 Butterfly layout is delicate and alive, which helps on a first attempt. The kit is complete on delivery.

Really nice kit, especially for the money. The drills sit nice and flush, no gaps showing the surface underneath. The drill shapes were clean, not many chipped or stuck-together pieces. I wish the printed legend was a little bigger. Did most of it over a long weekend and it was such a pleasant way to pass the time. Made a set for my book club and everyone wanted the link. Happy with it, with a few caveats.

I’ve done a handful of these now and this one is up there with the best. The edges are finished cleanly, no rough spots. If you like festive designs, this is a good one to go for. Everyone who comes over picks one up to look at it. Took a bit longer to arrive than I expected. Happy enough that I’d buy another.
Angela W. (verified owner) –
I keep coming back to this shop because the quality is consistent. Made a set for my book club and everyone wanted the link. The holder doesn’t match the coasters exactly in finish. Still a solid purchase.
John G. (verified owner) –
This one caught my eye and I’m glad it did. The cork backing is a nice touch, they don’t slide around on the table. Some colors came with barely any extras, though I didn’t run out. Really happy with the end result. Still worth it overall.
Dominic Kay (verified owner) –
Ordered this as a small pick-me-up and it worked. Each coaster is a solid thickness and feels durable. I did it in short bursts and it never felt rushed. I’d prefer slightly thicker cork on the base. Everyone who sees it asks where it came from. Worth it despite the small things.
Edwin Ward (verified owner) –
Was looking for a small diamond art project and these nailed it. Definitely ordering more as gifts. They’re a bit smaller than I pictured for a large tumbler. Would recommend it with those notes.
Angelo Lacey (verified owner) –
A set of coasters felt like the perfect bite-sized project. The set stacks neatly in the holder on the shelf. Great way to slow down at the end of a busy day. I wish the instructions went into a bit more detail for a first-timer. Still glad I ordered it overall.
Trudy Ruiz (verified owner) –
Came quickly and was packaged really well. There was plenty of margin around the edge for a clean finish. The butterfly pattern is what made me choose this one. Really calming, repetitive work, and satisfying when a section is finished. It turned out better than I pictured. The edges could be sealed a little better for daily use. Still a good kit overall.
Sandra Johnson –
Got a set for the office and they dress up my desk. Each coaster is a good thickness and feels sturdy in the hand. The work never felt like a chore. One color had a couple of misshapen drills, but spares covered it. They live on the side table and look good there. Good kit overall, just a couple of small things.
Yuki T. (verified owner) –
Really nice kit, especially for the money. They’re a nice size for a standard mug, and even a wider tumbler fits. Colors match the listing photo really closely. I found it really peaceful to focus on one small area at a time. Everyone who sees it asks how long it took. There were slightly more drills than needed, so it took longer than planned. If you like holiday designs, this is a good one to go for. Still a solid purchase.

I’ve finished four of these now and this might be my favorite. The cork backing is properly attached, not just glued on the edges. They’ve become the thing people notice first in the living room. One coaster was slightly thicker than the others. Minor quibbles aside, I’d buy it again.
Sofia Mcdonald (verified owner) –
These were a nice little project to knock out over a week. Nice thickness – not the flimsy cardboard kind. Everything felt well made, from the tools to the drills. Great for unwinding after a busy week. The packaging arrived a little dented. Gave it to my daughter as a gift and it was a big hit. Minor quibbles aside, I’d buy it again.
Pamela Maxwell (verified owner) –
Got these for the kitchen table and they look so cute. The cork keeps them from sticking to the table when there’s condensation. Wish the cork backing were a touch thicker. I work on it while listening to an audiobook and the time just disappears. I’ve had three people ask me where I bought it. Good enough that I’d buy another.
Larry Swanson (verified owner) –
These are my favorite style of kit to give away. Nothing arrived damaged, and everything was sealed properly. Wish the cork backing were a touch thicker. A really enjoyable way to pass a rainy afternoon. Gave it to my sister as a gift and it was a big hit. Overall a good experience.
Sarah D. (verified owner) –
Wasn’t sure what to expect, but I’m very happy with it. The edges are finished cleanly, no rough spots. The drill shapes were clean, not many chipped or stuck-together pieces. The Christmas design is even prettier in person than in the photos. Did most of it over a long weekend and it was such a pleasant way to pass the time. Took me a while to get the hang of the multi-placer tip. They’re a hit whenever we have people over. Minor things, but I’d still buy it again.
Daniela H. (verified owner) –
Bought a set as a hostess gift and kept a set for myself. The holder fits all 6 pieces neatly, keeps them from getting lost. Only small gripe is that a few drills had little burrs on them. Perfect for a cozy evening in when you want to keep your hands busy. Good kit overall, just a couple of small things.
Benjamin Lee (verified owner) –
Arrived well packed and ready to start. Using them on the patio table and they’ve held up fine. Shipping took a bit longer than the estimate. Overall happy, just a few small things.
Carol Clarke (verified owner) –
Bought a set as a hostess gift and kept a set for myself. Each one took about an evening, quicker than I expected. It’s become my evening ritual – an hour of this and I feel settled. The wax ran out before I finished and I had to use my own. Good kit overall, just a couple of small things.
Sarah Meyers (verified owner) –
I grabbed these to have something small to work on in the evenings. They look great on the sideboard and are genuinely useful. The wax ran out before I finished and I had to use my own. Worth buying, just plan for those small quirks.
Kimberly Lee (verified owner) –
This is a genuinely nice kit for the money. It’s found a permanent spot in the house. The holder is a little loose, the coasters rattle when you move it. Would still recommend it.
Rickey Gross –
Added this to my cart at the last minute and I’m glad I did. The thickness makes them feel like real coasters, not craft foam. Instructions were minimal, though it’s easy enough to figure out. Gave a set to my neighbor as a housewarming gift and she loved them. Overall happy, just a few small things.
Jesse Walton (verified owner) –
So glad I added this one to my cart. The drills have a nice sparkle to them, not dull or flat. The wax ran out before I finished and I had to use my own. I did this with my mother-in-law on the weekends and we both got into it. Would still recommend it.
Faye Baxter (verified owner) –
Bought these to replace a tired set and the upgrade is obvious. Finish is even and the whole thing looks tidy once you’re done. It’s a calm, repetitive hobby and that’s exactly what I wanted. Instructions were minimal, though it’s easy enough to figure out. Would buy again; the notes are minor.
Joe Carpenter (verified owner) –
I keep a set going on the kitchen counter. The winged palette works really well with the design. Cork base means no scratches on our wood table, which I was worried about. It’s a good way to slow down at the end of the day. I keep them out for guests and always get asked about them. The edges could be sealed a little better for daily use. I’d recommend it with that one note.
Sofia D. (verified owner) –
Second time ordering this style, still happy with it. Nothing arrived damaged, and everything was sealed properly. They look great on the sideboard and are genuinely useful. Instructions were pretty minimal, though there are plenty of tutorials online. Minor things, but I’d still buy it again.
Ricardo Serrano (verified owner) –
These are my go-to when I want a small craft that still feels rewarding. Each one took about an evening, quicker than I expected. Made a set for my sister and now she wants more. The tray included is on the small side. I’d recommend it with that one note.
Sierra N. (verified owner) –
Bought a set to use at our lake house and ended up making all eight. They wipe clean easily, which matters with coffee and kids around. I picked the festive version and the colors are lovely. Great way to slow down at the end of a busy day. Took a bit longer to arrive than I expected. Gave a set to my neighbor as a housewarming gift and she loved them. Happy with it, with a few caveats.
Abigail Duarte (verified owner) –
I’ve tried a few brands and this one holds up well. I keep them out for guests and always get asked about them. I’d have liked a few more spare drills in the pale colors. Still a good kit overall.
Jennifer F. (verified owner) –
Bought a set as a hostess gift and kept a set for myself. They wipe clean easily, which matters with coffee and kids around. The holder is a little loose, the coasters rattle when you move it. I keep it set up on a side table and do a bit whenever I have ten minutes. Worth buying, just plan for those small quirks.
Terry Hanson –
I wanted something I could finish in a sitting or two and these were it. The cork base means no scratches on our wood table. The packaging was a little crushed on one corner. Keeps my hands busy during long flights and hotel evenings. They’ve held up well to daily coffee and tea. Happy with it, with one small caveat.
Mark A. (verified owner) –
Bought a set to use at our lake house and ended up making all eight. The holder is sturdy enough that I actually keep them in it. The holder doesn’t match the coasters exactly in finish. Really calming, repetitive work, and satisfying when a section is finished. They sit by the coffee maker and get used constantly. Overall a good experience.
Richard Andersen (verified owner) –
Not my first diamond painting, but one of my favorites. They’re sized well for a standard mug and a wider tumbler too. Some colors had very few spare drills. I worked through it over several quiet evenings. I’d recommend it with that one note.
NotionsAndNook (verified owner) –
Came quickly and was packaged really well. The butterfly detail is impressive up close. The kit came complete, nothing extra needed from the craft store. I did most of it on weekend mornings with coffee. They’re a bit small for a large tumbler. Worth it despite the small things.
Oscar Quinn (verified owner) –
These are my favorite style of kit to give away. The drills are uniform and sit flat with no gaps. Everything was bagged and labeled, so setup took five minutes. I worked on this during my lunch breaks and it made the days feel better. The edges could be sealed a little better for daily use. Everyone who sees it asks where it came from. I’d recommend it with that one note.
Jackie Moon (verified owner) –
I do these while dinner is in the oven. Great little time filler. The drills are uniform and sit flat with no gaps. The packaging arrived a little dented. I’ve been doing it in the evenings with my partner, we take turns on sections. Good enough that I’d buy another.
Marsha Kaufman –
I’ve made several sets of these now as gifts. The cork backing is a nice touch, they don’t slide around on the table. The adhesive picked up lint over the days I worked on it. The winged palette works really well with the design. It’s a good way to slow down at the end of the day. Small issues, but nothing that would stop me ordering again.
