Hi, I’m Amber — a creative artist, lifelong cozy-hobby enthusiast, and someone who could happily spend hours placing tiny sparkling drills one by one. Diamond painting has always been one of my favorite ways to unwind and add a little magic to everyday life, and I created Pressed + Placed to bring that same feeling to others.

My vision is simple:
to fill the diamond painting world with unique, delightful artwork from independent artists, paired with top-tier quality that makes every kit feel special. I’m building a space where creativity, comfort, and charm live together, and where each design feels like its own little escape.

As this studio grows, your voice matters deeply. I value feedback from the diamond painting community more than anything, and I’m always listening. Your experiences help shape what I create next — from sizing, to quality, to themes you want to see more of — so we can build something wonderful together.

Thank you for being here at the start of this journey. I can’t wait to bring more art, more sparkle, and more cozy moments your way.

I believe in being fully transparent as I build this little sparkly dream from the ground up, so here’s where we’re at. I’m currently waiting on sample kits from four different manufacturers so I can compare quality, pricing, canvas feel, drill shine, packaging, and overall experience. My goal is to choose the best possible manufacturer — the one that delivers stunning quality without making your wallet cry.

Once those samples arrive and I find the one, I’ll begin setting up a partnership with them and start creating the first official Pressed + Placed diamond painting kits. And then? I’ll be ready to bring you all the magical, cozy, whimsical diamond art you could ever want. (Kidding… but also not really.)

This whole process should take about two months, and I’ll be sharing updates along the way. In the meantime, I’d love for you to follow along on social and send any feedback, wishes, or ideas you have. Your voice genuinely matters as this brand takes shape. Please feel free to contact me at any time at amber@pressedandplaced.com

Thank you for being here at the beginning. The sparkle is coming. 🌙✨

If you’re an artist who’d love to see your work transformed into shimmering diamond painting kits, I’d be thrilled to connect with you. I’m passionate about supporting small, independent artists and helping your artwork find a new audience in a cozy, creative space.

You can reach me anytime at amber@pressedandplaced.com — I’d love to see your portfolio and chat about collaborating.

I also want to be upfront and inclusive: artists who use AI as part of their creative process are welcome, as long as there’s still a human touch, intention, and ownership behind the work. I know not everyone feels the same way, so in the spirit of transparency, I’ll be creating an artist page where visitors can see each artist’s style, methods, and whether AI tools are part of their workflow.

My goal is simple:
to create a supportive, uplifting home for artists of all kinds while bringing beautiful, unique artwork into the diamond painting world.

If that sounds like your vibe, reach out — I’d love to collaborate.
