Article: Open up the packet of gel/wax that came with your kit and dip the metal end of the pen into the gel/wax to pick some up. This will make it possible for the pen to pick up the drills.  Some kits come with a special wax pencil that you have to sharpen instead. In this case, sharpen the pencil using a pencil sharpener. Some pens will have a wide end too, which you can use to pick up to three drills at one time. This will also need to be dipped in the gel/wax first. Gently press the tip of the pen against the top, faceted part of the drill. Lift the pen away from the tray; the drill should be stuck to it. Keep the tray just below the edge of your canvas; this will make it easier to access. Pull the pen away; the crystal should be stuck against the canvas. If you are just starting out, it might be a good idea to press lightly at first. This way, if the drill is off-set, you can nudge it back into place, then press down on it to secure it. This is exactly like  painting by number, except that you are using drills instead. Work one color at a time and refill the pen with wax as needed. When you finish filling in all the squares with the same symbols, move onto the next color. This will help you work faster and stay organized. Avoid resting your hand against the canvas; the more you touch the sticky surface, the less tacky it will become. Continue filling in the canvas using the same technique as before. Work in 1 to 2-inch (2.54 to 5.08-centimeter) wide sections, one color at a time. When you completely fill in a section, move on to the next one.  Do not peel the entire plastic covering away, or the adhesive on the canvas will get dirty and lose its tack. Always replace the covering when you’ve finished for the day to protect the still open sections.
What is a summary of what this article is about?
Dip your pen tool into the gel or wax that came with your kit. Use the pen to pick up a diamond. Gently press the drill onto the corresponding square. Fill the rest of the squares in that section. Peel away more of the plastic covering, and fill in more squares.
