DIY Paint by Numbers Kit

This is a fun project paint for someone who wants to paint but doesn’t have the art skills or all the art supplies. All the necessary items are provided with the exception of the frame, although the hanging brackets are included. The canvas did need to be ironed to flatten out the folds caused in packaging. I also had my husband build a basic frame to stretch the canvas over to make painting easier (taping the canvas over a portion of cardboard would work too- I recommend this step. As many of the numbered sections are small I would also recommend using a magnifying glass or reading glasses to see & paint those areas better. Even though the paint brushes are provided I chose to use simple toothpicks to paint the smaller areas. Overall I’m pleased with this item.

he picture is beautiful and complex. I started drawing it and everything went well. But then we moved from one state to another... time passed and when I took out the picture to continue painting, the paints had dried. I tried using water but to no avail. I am very upset because I would like to see the picture on my wall. After asking for feedback from one of the buyers, I discovered a similar problem. The supplier sent the buyer a second set of paints. This sounds reassuring. But I don’t know how to contact the supplier to ask them to send me a second set of paints. Please help me resolve this issue. Thank you in advance).

I have enjoyed learning how to paint on canvas, and how the brushes work. This is the first time I have done a PBN and have 2 more waiting that I have purchased since I started this one because it has been so enjoyable and relaxing hobby.Tje paint is nice, a couple were kind of dry but adding a drop or 2 of water fixed that but when I found one of the paint pots was hard and it couldn't be softened,I contacted the seller, Dbzon, and they sent me a new kit at no charge. Super awesome since I bought it in January 2020 and just found it now in November 2020.

I really started off loving this as there are many small details to paint but the paint was terrible. I tried everything to get it to a good consistency.

I have not started painting this yet. It is very detailed, and will take a long time. But the picture is beautiful so I'm hopeful it will look great when I am done. The wrinkles are very deep. I have ironed it on both sides, and cannot get the wrinkles out. Please advise on how to do this. Can I use spray starch? Water? Consider shipping in a rolled up container, to keep it from wrinkling so much.

Really pretty. The numbers are small and it only comes with a small amount of paint so you have to be careful of how much you use, but otherwise it turned out great .

The painting turned out beautiful. Only complaint is that some of the lighter paints are much too sheer, and even after layering multiple times the numbers are still visible. Other than that, the painting is great.

I thought this was pretty easy. The numbers were easy to see. Just enough paint (almost ran out of one of the colors...) from doing research I knew going I would have to do multiple layers especially on the lighter colors. I bought different brands and this one was the best

Both quality of the canvas and paint are really good. Still working on it slowly but enjoying every minute of it.

Time consuming. This took me three months to finish (juggling work and other daily activities)!! It’s highly detailed and intricate. Some of the slots / squares are so tiny and the paintbrush was not tiny enough. The outlines and numbers in the canvas are quite dark, which means you’ll have to paint over a few times before the outlines/ numbers aren’t visible. This is a problem especially for lighter colours. In spite of painting over many times, outlines and numbers are still visible. I swapped the white flowers for red instead (got the red from another paint by numbers kit) so the numbers won’t be visible.Overall, it’s a manageable piece of you have the patience, and rewarding to see how the piece turned out in the end.I do hope that the supplier would consider including a canvas stretcher with this kit. Now I have to go look for one that fits before I can put the painting up.

The package is pretty small and compact, so it is easy to give as a gift. Keep in mind that the brush and paint is 'okay' in quality but will get the job done. This one is quite complex and has lots of areas that are tiny to deal with but that is why it is such a great gift that love to paint.
