How many rhinestones does it take to cover a cup?
What about the fun trend of the Bling Cup made popular by Jennifer Lopez? Our estimate for an average-sized tumbler is 2500-3000 size 20ss crystals when doing a simple honeycomb pattern.
If you're using the scatter method, you're looking at at least 4,000 stones for a 20 oz skinny. Most people choose 4 different size stones for a scatter method cup.
The easiest way is do decide how many you are going to spread over an inch and multiply by the # of inches. Keep in mind the larger the rhinestones the less spacing you have between the stones and vice versa. For example: Let say that we will be spreading three (3) 20ss rhinestones over an inch.

Our estimate for an average-sized tumbler is 2500-3000 size 20ss crystals when doing a simple honeycomb pattern. If you want your design to feature your name or some other design with curves and bends, you will want to pick up some smaller crystals, such as 12ss to fill in the gaps.
Sizes of Rhinestones
From what I've found the most common size for rhinestone tumblers, are ss10 to ss20. Here are approximate conversions of rhinestones: ss10 = 2.6 – 2.85mm. ss12 = 3.1mm.
Remember, rhinestones are sold by the gross (a dozen dozens, which equals 144 pieces). If you haven't already, divide the total number of 12ss rhinestones needed by 144 to get the number of gross to order. If it's not an even number, round up to eliminate the decimal. So, that's it!
Rhinestones are measured in 'SS' (Stone Size), and jewels are measured in millimeter. All current rulers have an inch side and a Centimeter (CM) side on them. Each centimeter (CM) is divided into 10 units, and each unit is a millimeter (MM).
What is the best glue for rhinestones?
Gem-Tac glue is the industry leader for gluing rhinestones onto fabric. This glue is ideal for bonding porous materials such as fabric, wood, and suede, as well as smooth surfaces such as glass, vinyl and metal. This terrific multi-purpose adhesive dries fast and clear and is waterproof.
