ARTDOT 60-Piece Diamond Art Storage Trays with Lids (2-in-1 stackable trays & tools)

If you’ve ever gone to pick up your diamond painting drills and found half of them on the carpet, you’ll know the pain. These ARTDOT storage trays are designed to keep drills contained and make sorting feel a lot less repetitive. The pitch here is pretty straightforward: trays that do both storage and “ready-to-paint” organisation, so you spend less time pouring and cleaning up.

That said, it’s not going to magically make every part of diamond painting effortless. It’s more about improving your workflow and tidying your workspace—especially if you paint in sessions and like to pause without chaos.

The essentials

This kit is made up of 60 diamond art storage trays, designed for adults who want a cleaner setup while working on diamond and crystal art projects. The trays come with lids and focus on containment: the idea is that even if a tray gets knocked or tipped over accidentally, the drills stay where they should, instead of spreading across your floor or carpet.

A key design element is the tray layout. There are different sections to support multiple stages of your process: aligning diamonds in a groove area, having a multi-grid section that suits a faster workflow when you’re actively working with a pen, and a separate area for storing diamonds that aren’t sorted yet. On paper, that’s the kind of structure that reduces back-and-forth—particularly if you’re the sort of person who likes to keep colours organised as you go.

What you’ll notice day to day

The “instant identification” approach is one of the more practical touches in this set. Each tray is transparent, and it includes 489 stickers that match diamond colours. In use, that means you’re not constantly squinting at bags or trying to guess which colour is which after the same break you swore you’d never take.

Another day-to-day benefit is stacking. The trays are built with a grooved bottom design that lets them stack securely. If you’re working at a table and you regularly tidy between sessions, the space-saving angle is real: fewer loose containers around the desk, and a less cluttered painting corner.

One limitation to keep in mind: the transparent trays and sticker system will help with identification, but it still depends on how you label and keep track. If you’re hoping for a completely foolproof “set and forget” system, you may find you still want a consistent routine.

Key features worth focusing on

The value here is the combination of storage trays and workflow-friendly sections.

• Lidded, secure locking design: made to keep diamonds contained if a tray is bumped or tipped over.
• Three-section tray layout: groove area for stable alignment, multi grid area aimed at boosting speed (with a 3-drill pen), and a separation area for unsorted diamonds.
• Transparent trays + colour stickers: 489 stickers to help you quickly identify diamond colours while crafting.
• Stackable storage: grooved bottom design supports secure stacking and helps reduce wasted desk space.

If you tend to mix colours, pour from one container to another often, or you’ve been putting up with repetitive cleaning up scattered drills, this kit is aimed squarely at that friction.

Who it suits (and who should be cautious)

It makes sense if you’re an adult diamond painting enthusiast who wants a neater desk and a smoother flow between sorting, placing, and short breaks. It’s also a good match if you paint in batches of colours and like to keep “ready” sections separated from unsorted drills.

You may want to skip it if you only do very small, short sessions and you don’t really struggle with mess or organisation. In that case, the 60-tray setup could feel like more system than you need.

Also, the multi-grid design is described with a 3-drill pen in mind. If your workflow relies on different pen formats or you’re not using a 3-drill style, you may still benefit from the lidded storage and sorting stickers, but the “speed boost” part might not land as strongly.

Getting the most from it

A simple way to test whether this style of organisation suits you is to set up one working tray for your current colour group. Use the groove area for stable alignment, keep the multi-grid area ready for active placing, and reserve the separation area for unsorted drills you’ll deal with later.

Then, during breaks, close the lid and stack the tray back. It’s a small habit, but it’s exactly the kind of routine that reduces the classic “where did the drills go?” moment.

Before buying, it’s worth checking your own workflow: do you usually sort colours and work step-by-step, or do you prefer a more loose, bag-based approach? This kit is better aligned with the former.

Final verdict

Worth considering if you want lidded, stackable diamond art storage that also supports how you actually paint—sorting, alignment, and a quicker workflow. The combination of a secure locking lid, transparent trays with matching colour stickers, and a structured tray layout is built to reduce mess and make organisation feel less tedious.

It might not be the best choice if your diamond painting sessions are infrequent or tiny, or if you’re not using a 3-drill pen style—because then you’ll rely mostly on the storage and labelling benefits rather than the speed-focused layout.
