About This Butterfly Design
This Butterfly design shows 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. The colour work runs through iridescent blues and violets shifting toward warm orange at the wing edges — an overall feel that is delicate and alive, never busy. 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 Q4881.

butterfly motifs work in the transitional spaces of a home — the places that do not need a theme, just something with life in it. In practice that means the finished piece sits comfortably in hallways and entryways, where the delicate character of the palette does the decorating for you.
Each DOTZSO canvas is produced to be worked at your own pace and framed at the end of it. You get a colour-printed canvas, DOTZSO resin drills, a sorting tray, a comfort-grip pen, a wax caddy and clear step-by-step pictures.
Full drill coverage is the reason the finished canvas reads as artwork rather than craft. Every printed symbol is worked, so the shine is consistent across the whole surface.
The kit holds 1 canvases, allowing for a longer project or a shared session.

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 across a few quiet sessions, then frame it and let it hold the wall.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the diamond painting kit ready to use straight away?
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 Q4881.
Will the Butterfly diamond painting kit stand up to regular 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. The bond across the Butterfly face is consistent throughout.
How do I remove marks from 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. Keep it out of prolonged direct sun to hold the Butterfly colours.
Does the Butterfly artwork have unworked sections?
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. The Butterfly piece has a uniform drilled finish.
Is the Butterfly design a slow build or a fast finish?
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 on the Butterfly piece is visibly steady.
Is the Butterfly design forgiving for beginners?
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. Nothing has to be sourced locally.

I’m a repeat DOTZSO customer at this point and this kit did not disappoint. The drills cover edge to edge with no bald spots. There were extra drills left over in every color when I finished. I brought it on a week at the lake and finished most of it there. Really proud to have this hanging in the house. Easy recommendation.

Alma Vega (verified owner) –
The finished size makes a real statement on the wall. The canvas surface has a slight texture that helps the drills grip. I find it relaxing to just follow the chart and let my mind wander. It’s the focal point of the hallway now. Really happy with this one.
Wesley Burnham –
Saw a finished version online and tracked down this kit the same day. The drills cover edge to edge with no bald spots. I found the whole thing very easy to settle into. I’d order this again.

The detail on this canvas is really nice up close. The canvas is a good weight with a detailed print underneath. It’s hung in the bedroom and looks wonderful there. Very pleased with it.
Eloise Terrell (verified owner) –
Ordered two kits, this was the one I finished first. The instructions were short but covered everything I needed. Did most of it over a long weekend and it was such a pleasant way to pass the time. It fits perfectly with the decor in my craft room. Exactly what I wanted.
Samantha Gifford (verified owner) –
Took it slow, a section at a time, and really enjoyed the process. The fabric has a good weight to it and hangs flat. The repetitive motion is oddly satisfying, one of those simple pleasures. It looks like a gallery print from across the room. Recommended without hesitation.

Ordered this to work on through the winter evenings. Hung it in the hallway and it brightens the whole space. Five stars from me.
Gerard Herring (verified owner) –
A bigger project than I’ve done before, but so worth the time. The canvas didn’t dry out over the weeks I worked on it. Everything needed to finish was in the box, nothing extra to buy. A peaceful project that fits into whatever time you have. Everyone who sees it asks how long it took. This shop has a repeat customer in me.
Joshua Dotson (verified owner) –
Picked this up as a small reward after a long quarter at work. It looks like real art in a simple frame. Really glad I bought it.
Melvin Faulkner (verified owner) –
I framed it once finished and it looks like real artwork. The canvas is a good weight with a detailed print underneath. I set aside twenty minutes a night for this and it’s become a ritual. The winged detail is impressive up close. Recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing craft.
Malik Bradley (verified owner) –
Been doing these for about two years and this kit is solid. The chart on the side of the canvas is clear and easy to follow. The finish is even across the whole piece. I take it on the porch in the evenings when the weather is nice. The colors tie the room together. Very happy customer.
Beth Key (verified owner) –
Took it slow, a section at a time, and really enjoyed the process. Made this as a gift for my parents’ anniversary. The butterfly piece really pulls the room together once it’s hung. Definitely recommend giving it a try.
Lois Rosario (verified owner) –
I’ve bought from this shop a few times now and this is another good one. The glue is tacky enough that I can reposition if I misplace a drill. I like that it’s creative without requiring any decisions. Couldn’t be happier with it.
Mackenzie C. (verified owner) –
I hung it in the hallway and people always ask where I got it. Packaging was tidy and nothing had spilled in transit. It turned into something I actually want to display, not shove in a drawer. Easy recommendation.
Sierra Sims (verified owner) –
Bought this for the living room wall and it was worth the time. Print quality is sharp, the butterfly detail really comes through. It’s framed and hanging above the couch. No complaints at all.
Caleb A. (verified owner) –
This arrived in perfect condition, nothing bent or spilled. Looks lovely framed and hung up. Five stars from me.

Jeffrey B. (verified owner) –
Ordered it after seeing one a friend finished, and I get the appeal now. The pen and wax worked fine, I didn’t need to dig out my own tools. It’s the kind of project that feels creative without being stressful. It’s hanging in the hallway now and looks great. Really pleased with this one.
Tiffany Hines (verified owner) –
This is my fourth kit from DOTZSO and the quality is holding up. Symbols are readable even in the busiest sections. The backing held up fine and didn’t peel anywhere. Perfect for a cozy evening in when you want to keep your hands busy. It pulled the color scheme of the room together. Easy recommendation from me.
Jean Russell (verified owner) –
Took it slow, a section at a time, and really enjoyed the process. Extra drills were included for every color, which I appreciated. The drills arrived clean, not stuck together in clumps. It was easy to pick up and put down without losing my place. It looks like a gallery piece now that it’s framed. Very pleased overall.
BayAreaBeads (verified owner) –
This showed up faster than I expected and I started it the same night. The glue is tacky enough that I can reposition if I misplace a drill. If you like butterfly designs, this is a good example. I found it a nice counterweight to a screen-heavy day. It looks stunning in natural light. Solid kit, would order again.
DogMomMakes (verified owner) –

I’ve finished four of these now and this might be my favorite. It’s hanging in on the camping trip now and looks great. Great kit, no complaints.

I’ve done a handful of these now and this one is up there with the best. Full drill coverage means no blank canvas showing through. I’m really proud of how it turned out. Thumbs up from our whole family.
Hazel Young –

A bigger project than I’ve done before, but so worth the time. The drills clicked into place without needing much pressure. My daughter wants one now after seeing mine. A lovely little purchase.
Wilson Beck (verified owner) –
I hung it in the hallway and people always ask where I got it. The drills sit nice and flush, no gaps showing the surface underneath. I work on it while listening to an audiobook and the time just disappears. It’s hanging in the porch now and looks great. Will definitely be back.
NurseNightShiftCrafter (verified owner) –
The detail on this canvas is really nice up close. The drills came in labeled bags, which made sorting painless. Everything I needed was in the box – pen, wax, tray and tweezers. I like having something mindful to do that doesn’t need a screen. It’s the nicest thing I’ve made so far. Very happy with this purchase.
Terrance Holmes (verified owner) –
The detail on this canvas is what sold me. Great value considering how many hours of enjoyment it gave me. Highly recommend.

I framed mine and it looks like a real painting. The canvas laid flat after a day under a couple of books. I do this while listening to music and the time disappears. Everyone who sees it asks how long it took. Worth picking up.

David H. –
This kept me busy for a solid month in the best way. Nice large format, the finished piece makes a real statement. The butterfly palette is softer in person, which I actually prefer. Framed in a simple black frame and it looks like real art. Would make a great gift too.

Preston Hardy (verified owner) –
I’ve finished four of these now and this might be my favorite. It looks far more detailed than the kit suggested. Great kit, no complaints.

Bigger than it looks in the photos, which was a nice surprise. The legend printed on the canvas is handy to have. The work never felt like a chore. Better than I expected.
Deborah Tucker (verified owner) –
Ordered this after seeing it on a friend’s shelf. Nothing was damaged in shipping and the packaging was neat. Plenty of margin around the edges for framing or trimming. Surprisingly calming, even for someone with a short attention span. Really proud to have this hanging in the house. The butterfly artwork is the reason I clicked. Loved it, no regrets.

Ordered on a Monday, had it by the weekend. There’s enough white space at the border for framing without cropping. The work never felt like a chore. The artwork looks even better in person than the photos. Easy recommendation from me.
