A brand new Diamond Art Group is launching at the Makerspace in the Mercat, offering a relaxed and welcoming space to get creative, unwind, and meet new people.

Diamond Art is a calming, beginner-friendly craft, similar to paint-by-numbers, using small resin rhinestones to create colourful designs. You can work on coasters, magnets, or larger framed pieces - perfect for all skill levels.

Whether you’re completely new to Diamond Art or have been working on projects for years, everyone is welcome. You can bring along a piece you’re already working on, or try one of the smaller designs available on the day. Cat lovers will also be pleased to hear there are cat-themed Diamond Art designs too 🐾

This group is all about creativity, connection, and having a go in a friendly, supportive environment.
