I would probably buy this item again.

The quality of the item seems to be very good. The only downside is that the item is way too detailed. I think you could make a simpler paint by number canvas that would provide the result people probably want without 26 colors and so much detail. Some of the numbered areas are way too small. Probably will purchase again although I haven't finished the one I bought so I can't comment on the end product although it looks like it will be great. I've actually started skipping some of the smaller areas.

Great gift idea

My wife and have troubles buying each other Xmas presents as we've reached a point in our lives that is we want our need something we just go but it throughout the year. Having said that it is very difficult to find presents for Xmas! A friend told me about your website where I found the paint by number you all offer! What a wonderful "out of the box" idea!! So I got pix of our 2 grandchildren of 3 years and an 8 month old to you for the canvas. I can't wait to give this to my wife Bonnie Christmas morning!! Thank you so much for making my job easier lol!!

Will buy again!

Bought this for my daughter to paint her favorite picture of my grandsons. She painted it, and was so impressed she bought another one! This picture does not do the painting justice.

Interesting Gift

This is a very cool idea and gift, but I wish there were more instructions. For instance, how much water should I use and stuff like that. If you hold the paints also the number rubs off a little. But overall a great concept and product.

Really fun, but some paints were dry when I opened them.

At first I was really overwhelmed looking at all the different numbers and tiny little areas. I seriously considered using a magnifying glass. But once I got into it, it was so fun and rewarding. One star removed because a couple of the paints were really dry, even when I first cracked them open.

I would recommend this product to anyone with an eye for art

My wife bought me this product to create a painting of my grandson's picture. The product has everything you need to create a picture. My only suggestion is to have the canvas mounted before sending.

Love the idea, wish the image was clearer

I was skeptical because the reference photo for the final result was very low resolution but hoped it would still work...it's way too low resolution in my opinion. Looks like you put a pixelated blur filter on it. So just keep that in mind, and choose a picture you think will look good blurry. It's still a cute, personal gift.

Unique!

My mother-in-law loves doing paint by numbers and it was so fun to gift her a custom picture! She is very excited to get started on it!

Can I frame the painting under glass?

Verified reply from Jen

Hey there, the Custom Paint-By-Number Kit is on canvas. It won't fit in a frame.

  • undisclosed

Hello, a lot of our paints dried out and I'm wondering if I can order replacement paints? Thanks.

Verified reply from Madlen

Thank you for your question. At this time the paint cannot be purchased separately. I will pass on the suggestion to our team!

  • Scottsdale Az

Should canvas be stretched and stapled before or after painting? Is any prep needed to canvas before or after painting?

Verified reply from Angelica

No prep is needed, before or after. However, if you wish to attach the canvas to a frame, the artist recommends doing that before painting.

  • Plymouth MA

Do I need to be worried about the paint getting dried out in the tiny containers? This is a gift three weeks from now.

Verified reply from Itamar

The paint should remain fresh as long as it is stored in a cool dry place away from sunlight and the canisters are well-shut.

Hello, if I don't have the photo available digitally, can I send the actual photo?

Verified reply from Dayle-Marie

We're sorry, the Custom Paint-by-Number Kit photo is only able to accept photos digitally at this time.

  • Marietta, Ga

The photo that I'm choosing has another person's hand holding a bubble wand in it. Can you edit this out?

Verified reply from Coralie

Any editing would need to happen prior to submitting the photo. The artist will create this item exactly as the photo is submitted.

If I upload a photo would you be able to tell me if it would translate well to the chosen portrait size? So I would be given the opportunity to upload a different photo if it did not translate well. It would be a gift for my 11-year-old granddaughter who is exceptionally patient and an excellent artist. And do I need a stretcher frame? To complete

Hi! While we can't tell you if a specific photo will work here are some tips on choosing a photo: Here are the things that you need to consider when selecting the perfect photo for your Custom Paint by Number kit: - Select a photo with good brightness, contrast, and sharpness. - The background shouldn’t be too cluttered, so that the focus of the painting would be the main figure instead of its surrounding. - Make sure that the photo is clear, not blurred. - If you’re selecting a photo of your pet, we highly recommend a close-up view, to make it more detailed and subject-focused. - Keep in mind the aspect and ratio of your photo. Since the available custom kits are 16 x 20 inches/40 x 50 cm, it is crucial to select a photo with a 4:5 or 5:4 aspect ratio, and for 12x15inches select a photo with 2:3 or 3:2 aspect ratio. And yes you would need a stretcher frame with each canvas, the artist leaves the extra fabric on each side so that it can be stretched with stretcher bars. You just need to measure the paintable dimensions (12x15 or 16x20, whichever size you purchased) and buy a stretcher-bar kit of those dimensions.

Can kids go this? I have little grandkids that love to draw and paint….the littles are 5, 6, 7, 9 and two orders shes 24 and 17

Verified reply from Allison

The sections to paint are very tiny and require a steady hand. It's recommended for 15 and up.

What size canvas stretcher bars are needed / recommended for the two canvas sizes offered? I'm buying this as a gift and want to complete it with the supplies to hang it once it's complete!

Verified reply from Harmain

Hi Lindsay, With each canvas, the artist leave the extra fabric on each side so that it can be stretched with stretcher bars. You just need to measure the paintable dimensions (12x15 or 16x20, whichever size you purchased) and buy a stretcher-bar kit of those dimensions.
