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

- 1 × display holder / stand
- DOTZSO signature resin drills, sorted by colour (with extra drills included)
- Diamond painting tray
- Comfort-grip applicator pen

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.

Came quickly and was packaged really well. Each one took me two sittings to finish, quicker than I expected. It’s the kind of project that feels creative without being stressful. Great value for what you get. Would make a great gift too.
David W. (verified owner) –
This one caught my eye and I’m glad it did. I bring them out for guests and always get asked about them. Took me a while to get the hang of the multi-placer tip. Happy enough that I’d buy another.

Jennifer E. (verified owner) –
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.
Richard N. (verified owner) –
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.
Jessica N. (verified owner) –
Ordered it after seeing one a friend finished, and I get the appeal now. Drill colors are well separated, no squinting to tell two shades apart. It’s a slow, quiet hobby and I like that about it. Thumbs up from our whole family.
Ryan E. (verified owner) –
Really nice kit, especially for the money. Cork on the bottom plus the drill top makes them feel solid. It’s the kind of project that feels creative without being stressful. It’s a charming Christmas piece and everyone comments on it. I’m really proud of how it turned out. Really pleased with this one.

Such a fun format – one coaster at a time, no big commitment. The drill shapes were clean, not many chipped or stuck-together pieces. I love how the holiday colors turned out. My friends all want one now. Solid kit, would order again.

Exactly what the listing described, no surprises. I’m proud to have this on display. Would definitely buy again.
Lauren Albright (verified owner) –
I made one the first night just to see how it went, then did the rest over the week. The cork backing keeps them from sliding and protects the table. The repetitive motion is oddly satisfying, one of those simple pleasures. Easy recommendation from me.
Wyatt Armstrong (verified owner) –
Such a fun format – one coaster at a time, no big commitment. Colors are distinct enough that I never mixed two shades up. I set it up next to the window and do a few rows whenever the light is good. The holiday artwork is the reason I clicked. They’ve held up well to daily coffee and tea. A lovely little purchase.
Edward Pruitt –
These are my favorite style of kit to give away. The artwork looks even better in person than the photos. The drills clicked into place without needing much pressure. It’s the kind of project that feels creative without being stressful. Two thumbs up from me.
Kristin Tyler (verified owner) –
Our old coasters were scratched up, so this was an easy upgrade. Everyone who visits picks one up to look at it. It’s a lovely take on a Christmas design. Very happy with this purchase.
Marcos Kirkland –
Ordered it after seeing one a friend finished, and I get the appeal now. The surface wipes clean with a damp cloth, no fuss. The pen that came with it is a bit flimsy, I swapped in my own. A peaceful project that fits into whatever time you have. Worth buying, just plan for those small quirks.
Raul Murillo (verified owner) –
Our old coasters were scratched up, so this was an easy upgrade. The release paper peeled back cleanly without tearing. A couple of the darker shades were hard to tell apart in low light. Quiet Sunday mornings with this and a coffee is my favorite part of the week. My friends all want one now. A good buy, with one or two caveats.
Margaret Lucas (verified owner) –
Ordered on a Monday, had it by the weekend. The cork is dense, not the crumbly kind that sheds. The pen and wax worked fine, I didn’t need to dig out my own tools. The repetitive motion is oddly satisfying, one of those simple pleasures. Everyone who visits picks one up to look at it. This one’s a keeper.
Ava Hubbard (verified owner) –
Perfect little kit – not overwhelming like a full canvas. Cork on the bottom plus the drill top makes them feel solid. I found the repetition genuinely calming rather than tedious. Really pleased with how it turned out. A lovely little purchase.
Alexis Coombs (verified owner) –
I ordered these for the living room and they look intentional. I chose this one for the holiday look. It turned into something I actually want to display, not shove in a drawer. Would happily gift this.
Lloyd Mcdonald (verified owner) –
Found this while browsing and couldn’t leave without it. The kit included more than enough drills for the full design. I wish the instructions went into a bit more detail for a first-timer. They’ve survived a house full of guests without a mark. The Christmas artwork is the reason I clicked. I’d order again, just knowing what to expect.
CreativeCorner –
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.
Tia Howe –
Got these for the kitchen table and they look so cute. Nothing arrived damaged, and everything was sealed properly. They’ve held up well to daily coffee and tea. Solid kit, would order again.

I wanted something I could finish in a sitting or two and these were it. The edges are smooth, so nothing catches on a cloth when I wipe them. I picked it up whenever I had a spare twenty minutes. Would recommend to anyone on the fence.

This arrived in perfect condition, nothing bent or spilled. It turned into something I actually want to display, not shove in a drawer. Exactly what I was hoping for.

These little coasters are the perfect size for a quick project. The pen and wax worked fine, I didn’t need to dig out my own tools. I found it really peaceful to focus on one small area at a time.

Kenny Webster (verified owner) –
Bought a set for the camper and they’ve been great. This one might be my favorite finish yet. The festive subject matter is right up my street. They’re a bit smaller than I pictured for a large tumbler. Happy with it, with one small caveat.
Jennifer L. –
Such a fun format – one coaster at a time, no big commitment. Cork base means no scratches on our wood table, which I was worried about. Gave a set to my neighbor as a housewarming gift and she loved them. Loved it, no regrets.
Rudolph Hatcher (verified owner) –
I’ve bought from this shop a few times now and this is another good one. The set stacks neatly in the drawer when not in use. Quiet Sunday mornings with this and a coffee is my favorite part of the week. Everyone who comes over picks one up to look at it. I’d recommend it to a friend.
Delores Hanson (verified owner) –
I added this to my cart at 11pm and had zero regrets the next morning. The cork backing is properly attached, not just glued on the edges. It’s my go-to when I want something enjoyable that doesn’t take much thought. It’s earned a spot on the wall. The included pen wore out partway through. Minor quibbles aside, I’d buy it again.
Christopher R. (verified owner) –
Bought a set as a hostess gift and kept a set for myself. The holder fits all 10 pieces neatly, keeps them from getting lost. It’s a slow, quiet hobby and I like that about it. It turned into something I actually want to display, not shove in a drawer. Five stars from me.
Ernest Jennings (verified owner) –
I wanted coasters that didn’t look like everyone else’s and these fit. The finished piece gets compliments from everyone who visits. If this style appeals to you, it delivers. One coaster was slightly thicker than the others. A solid purchase with a couple of notes.
Kenneth Tillman –
Picked this up before a long flight and it saved the trip. The drills arrived clean, not stuck together in clumps. The set is eight, which is more than I strictly needed. It’s a lovely quiet hobby, and I like having something to show for it at the end. Worth it despite the small things.
Nicholas Higgins (verified owner) –
This was my first order here and it won’t be my last. The adhesive held firmly without any lifting at the edges. It’s the sort of project that makes an evening feel well spent. Really glad I bought it.

WindyCityWax (verified owner) –
I’m a repeat DOTZSO customer at this point and this kit did not disappoint. I’ve already had several people ask where it came from. It only comes in sets, so I couldn’t buy a single extra. Would order again despite the small issues.
Kirk Mccarthy (verified owner) –

Hugo Conner (verified owner) –
These are great for a first-timer, not intimidating at all. Each coaster is a solid thickness and feels durable. I’ve been doing it in the evenings with my partner, we take turns on sections. I keep them out for guests and always get asked about them. Can’t wait to start the next one.
Alyssa Hyde (verified owner) –
I made one the first night just to see how it went, then did the rest over the week. Cork base means no scratches on our wood table, which I was worried about. The drills are uniform and sit flat with no gaps. I do it at the kitchen table while dinner simmers. Guests always comment on them. It’s earned a permanent spot here.
