How it helps

Downsamples any photo onto a facet grid sized to your drill pitch.
Snaps each facet to the nearest color in a curated craft palette.
Every facet gets a printable symbol so the chart is easy to follow drill by drill.

Best practices

  • - Start around 80 facets wide for a first project; more facets add detail but also drilling time.
  • - High-contrast photos with clear shapes translate to cleaner patterns than busy, low-contrast ones.
  • - Match the generic color names to the closest color in your own diamond/drill brand before buying.
  • - A finer drill pitch gives a smaller, more detailed finished piece for the same facet grid.

Limitations

  • - Colors are a curated, generic set, not a specific brand's exact numbered catalog.
  • - The palette is fixed rather than auto-optimized per photo.
  • - Very busy photos with soft gradients can produce a large color count; simplify the source photo for a cleaner result.

FAQ

What determines the finished size?

Finished width/height is facets × drill pitch. An 80-facet-wide chart at a 2.8mm pitch finishes about 224mm wide.

Why symbols on every facet?

Diamond painting charts traditionally use one symbol per color so the pattern stays readable at a glance and in black-and-white print, in addition to the color fill.

Can I reduce the number of colors?

Not directly in this version — try a higher-contrast or more simplified source photo, which naturally reduces how many distinct palette colors get used.

Is anything uploaded?

No. The photo is processed entirely in your browser. Sign-in is required only when you download or copy an output, which uses 1 credit.
