Diamond Painting Layout Generator

Diamond painting grid on your photo

Upload a photo and see what a diamond painting grid looks like. Useful for estimating whether your photo has enough detail for the chosen size.

What is the grid for?

With diamond painting you work with a canvas divided into a grid of small squares. Each square represents a drill. The grid overlay on this page simulates that grid, so you can estimate how much detail remains visible at your chosen size.

The smaller the canvas, the larger each square is relative to your photo. This means fine details are lost. By placing the grid over your photo, you can immediately see whether important elements such as faces, eyes or patterns are still recognisable.

Tips for assessment

  • Are the main shapes in your photo still recognisable through the grid?
  • Do faces and eyes have enough squares to show details?
  • Is there enough colour difference between adjacent areas?
