About This Butterfly Design
The subject here is 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, set in iridescent blues and violets shifting toward warm orange at the wing edges. Rather than competing for attention, the piece holds a delicate and alive tone. 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 designed for rainy weekends and long winter evenings indoors. Designed for hallways and entryways, it holds up as decor rather than as something you finish and put in a drawer. Reference Q2385 Q4508-Q4512. Butterfly motifs work in the transitional spaces of a home — the places that do not need a theme, just something with life in it. Wing panels are worked as separate colour zones, so the shimmer shifts as you move past the finished piece.
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.
Every DOTZSO diamond painting kit is made for steady, screen-free sessions that end with something you can hang. Contents include a colour-printed canvas, DOTZSO resin drills, a sorting tray, a comfort-grip pen, a wax caddy and illustrated instructions.
Consistent coverage is the goal, and full drill is how it is achieved. Nothing is left bare, so the surface reflects evenly across the whole piece.
The kit includes 6 canvases, which extends the project well beyond a single session.

What’s in the Box

- DOTZSO signature resin drills, sorted by colour (with extra drills included)
- Diamond painting tray
- Comfort-grip applicator pen
- Wax caddy
- Pictorial step-by-step instructions
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.
Complete it in your own time, then frame it — a finished DOTZSO canvas is meant to be hung, not stored.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are all the parts of this Butterfly diamond painting kit included in one box?
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 Q2385 Q4508-Q4512.
Is the Butterfly finish durable enough for everyday use?
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. Daily contact is well within what the Butterfly surface is built for.
What is recommended for the Butterfly surface?
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. Do not soak the Butterfly piece, even briefly.
Will any part of the Butterfly diamond painting kit appear unfinished?
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. No background area of the Butterfly design is left bare.
How many sessions does the Butterfly diamond painting kit need?
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. Progress is steady rather than dramatic on the Butterfly piece.
Is the Butterfly diamond painting kit straightforward for a newcomer?
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. All parts are included as standard.

This was my first diamond painting kit and I’m officially hooked. The canvas came rolled, and it flattened out with no creases. This is the kind of craft that’s genuinely calming after a hectic day. It’s the nicest thing I’ve made so far. I’ll be ordering more.
Heather S. (verified owner) –
The color range on this one is impressive. It was worth every evening I spent on it. The butterfly subject is rendered with more detail than I expected. Definitely recommend giving it a try.
Ava E. (verified owner) –
This was my first full size canvas and it turned out better than I hoped. Once it was framed it really pulled the room together. Took me a while to get the hang of the multi-placer tip. Happy with it, with a few caveats.
Alejandro R. (verified owner) –
This one took some patience but the result is stunning. Once it was framed it really pulled the room together. I picked the winged version and the colors are lovely. Definitely recommend giving it a try.
Daniela M. –
Took me a few weeks of evenings and I loved every minute. The drills are bright and consistent in size, no weird off-color batches. The symbols are quite small in the detailed areas. It’s hanging in the guest room now and looks great. I’d recommend it with that one note.
Katrina Bravo (verified owner) –
I wanted something substantial enough to last a few weeks. Nothing was crushed or bent in transit. The adhesive attracted a little dust over the weeks. I found the repetition genuinely calming rather than tedious. It’s hanging on the wall and looks fantastic. Good kit — the notes above are minor.
Amanda Whitley (verified owner) –
I’ve been eyeing this design for weeks and finally pulled the trigger. The chart on the side of the canvas is clear and easy to follow. It’s framed and on the wall now. Great kit, no complaints.
Raul Stanton –
Ordered this for a quiet weekend and it delivered. The pen and wax worked fine, I didn’t need to dig out my own tools. Looks lovely framed and hung up. Five stars from me.
Megan Meyers –
Found this while browsing and couldn’t leave without it. The legend printed on the canvas is handy to have. I do this instead of scrolling and feel much better for it. Completely satisfied.
Susan Hartman –
Bought this as a centerpiece project for the season. The definition in the fine details holds up well. I had to press the canvas under books overnight before starting. I did most of it on weekend mornings with coffee. It looks stunning in natural light. Good kit overall, just a couple of small things.
Erin Mcconnell (verified owner) –
The detail on this canvas is really nice up close. The canvas feels substantial, not thin or flimsy. Symbol letters are small but legible, and the legend helped a lot. Nice mindful project – you can’t think about much else while you’re placing drills. It looks like a gallery print from across the room. This exceeded what I expected.
Wayne Wiggins (verified owner) –
This kept me busy through the whole winter. The drills cover edge to edge with no bald spots. The butterfly artwork looks great up on the wall. Keeps my hands busy while I watch something. Shipping took a few days longer than I expected. Overall a good experience.
Nancy S. (verified owner) –
Ordered on a Monday, had it by the weekend. If you like butterfly designs, this is a good one to go for. The glue is tacky enough that I can reposition if I misplace a drill. I’m really proud of how it turned out. Loved it, no regrets.
Colin Clark (verified owner) –
This kept me busy for a solid month in the best way. The numbered sections are spaced well, so the work doesn’t feel cramped. Pre-sorted drills would save time. It’s large enough to be a real statement piece. I’d order it again knowing what I know now.
Sharon Sawyer (verified owner) –
This was my first order here and it won’t be my last. The fabric has a good weight to it and hangs flat. Looks lovely framed and hung up. Exactly what I was hoping for.

Sheri Gillespie (verified owner) –
The detail on this canvas is what sold me. If this style appeals to you, it delivers. The canvas had a faint mark from the printing on one edge. I’ve gotten so many compliments on it. Worth it despite the small things.
Mark K. –
I framed it once finished and it looks like real artwork. The canvas didn’t dry out over the weeks I worked on it. Once framed it looks like something you’d buy in a gallery. Exactly what I was hoping for.
Vanessa G. –
Such a nice little project to have on the go. Color count is higher than my earlier kits, which shows in the finished piece. The canvas printing is crisp and the symbols are easy to read, even in low light. I’ve been doing it in the evenings with my partner, we take turns on sections. Made this as a gift for my parents’ anniversary. The butterfly artwork looks great up on the wall. Would definitely buy again.
Lori F. –
Took me a few weeks of evenings and I loved every minute. Framed in a simple black frame and it looks like real art. Would have liked the drills pre-sorted by color. Worth buying, just plan for those small quirks.
Abigail Sherwood (verified owner) –
Came across this while looking for craft ideas and bought it that day. The canvas came rolled, and it flattened out with no creases. It looks like something you’d buy, not something you assembled. Exactly what I wanted.
Hillary Hull (verified owner) –
Picked this for the size and stayed for the color range. The butterfly element makes it feel personal. Spare drills were included, which I appreciated. The process was straightforward enough to do while chatting. Would order again in a heartbeat.
Melba Irwin (verified owner) –

Bigger than it looks in the photos, which was a nice surprise. Full drill coverage means no blank canvas showing. The finished piece looks stunning in natural light. Highly recommend.

A bigger project than I’ve done before, but so worth the time. The higher color count really shows in the finished piece. Really relaxing to do in the evening instead of scrolling. It’s the nicest thing I’ve made so far. Delighted with it.
Olivia L. (verified owner) –
Took it slow, a section at a time, and really enjoyed the process. The canvas didn’t dry out over the weeks I worked on it. Made this as a gift for my parents’ anniversary. This shop has a repeat customer in me.
PacificNWDIY (verified owner) –
Honestly better quality than I expected for the price. It was worth every evening I spent on it. There were slightly more drills than needed, so it took longer than planned. I’d recommend it with that one note.
NanaMakesGifts –
Took me a few weeks of evenings and I loved every minute. The colors tie the room together. The winged element makes it feel personal. Instructions were pretty minimal, though there are plenty of tutorials online. Small issues, but nothing that would stop me ordering again.
Stephanie B. (verified owner) –
Bought it as a starter kit for myself and it worked out great. Symbols are printed clearly even in the busy areas of the butterfly section. I set it up next to the window and do a few rows whenever the light is good. Very pleased with how it came together. The pen that came with it is a bit flimsy, I swapped in my own. Would order again despite the small issues.
Emanuel Perkins (verified owner) –
Really nice kit, especially for the money. The canvas came rolled, and it flattened out with no creases. It brightens the whole hallway. Would make a great gift too.
Caleb Rogers (verified owner) –
I don’t usually leave reviews but this one deserved it. The canvas printing is crisp and the symbols are easy to read, even in low light. There were extra drills left over in every color when I finished. Did most of it over a long weekend and it was such a pleasant way to pass the time. A few drills had rough edges that needed picking off. It looks like a gallery piece now that it’s framed. I’d order again, just knowing what to expect.
Daisy Beck (verified owner) –
The detail on this canvas is what sold me. The winged motif makes it feel special. The canvas didn’t dry out over the weeks I worked on it. Packaging was tidy and nothing had spilled in transit. I do this instead of scrolling and feel much better for it. Made this as a gift for my parents’ anniversary. Worth picking up.
Jan Patterson (verified owner) –
This arrived in perfect condition, nothing bent or spilled. The chart on the side of the canvas is clear and easy to follow. Something about placing the drills is very settling. Framed in a simple black frame and it looks like real art. A great addition to my collection.
Marshall Miller (verified owner) –
A bigger project than I’ve done before, but so worth the time. The canvas came rolled, and it flattened out with no creases. Surprisingly calming, even for someone with a short attention span. The winged colors are richer than the photos show. This one is going straight on the wall. Great kit, no complaints.

Came across this while looking for craft ideas and bought it that day. There’s enough margin on the edges for framing. Looks lovely framed and hung up. The butterfly piece really pulls the room together once it’s hung. The wax ran low before I finished the last section. Good kit overall, just a couple of small things.
