Collection: Christmas Collection Paint-by-numbers

I love the Arcadia national Park as well as all the other ones. But would like to be able to purchase them in poster size. It would be one heck of a challenge, but worth every bit.

So far so good. I think it will turn out great.

Painting this canvas is very zen! The materials are high quality and I’m surprised it looks as good as it does. I love doing it

Purchased these for my Christmas gifts. I can’t start them till after the holiday. I love the designs and color selections from the website. Hope my painting skills do them justice. Bruce

These are great. If your retired, it's a very fulfilling way to spend time. I listen to music or a podcast, and paint away. Wish these could be more visually accurate, but I suspect that would cost you too much.
Highly recommend these. When I finish the two I have, I will order some more.

Just started! Well organized so far!! Thanks!

I found this website randomly and I was looking for the perfect christmas present for a friend who loves arts and crafts and also loves national parks. So this is making the best ever christmas present

Statue of Liberty National Monument | Paint by Numbers Kit

This was my first paint-by-numbers in decades, the last (and only) one I did prior to this one was when I was 9 or 10 years old. It was a lot of fun and very relaxing :). This won't be my last one, I'm pretty happy with the results!
I made mistakes while I was working on this and learned some things along the way that will hopefully help the next newbie:
1. It takes 2-3 layers of paint to cover the paint by number areas on the canvas, depending on the color (this is common across vendors from what I have seen so don't let that deter you). Some colors are more opaque than others. Before you start, prime your canvas with a thin layer of CLEAR Gesso (you can get Gesso at an art and craft store) before you start, let it dry for at least 24 hours and you won't have that problem (lots of YouTube videos out there about this).
2. If the PBN canvas has very small areas, go out and get yourself a detail brush, it makes it sooo much better than being frustrated working with a brush that's really too big.
3. Unless you plan on pasting the paint on, you don't need any extra paint. I ordered some because I feared running out while working on it and never opened the additional paint set.
4. Don't open the paint pod and start painting (I did that and the top of the painting has paint that is way too thick). Check the texture of the paint, if it's really thick, add a couple of drops of water and stir until the paint is more fluid (I use a toothpick). Experiment on the side of the canvas or another canvas whether the paint is too thick or flows well. There is also a medium called Flow Aid you can use instead of water (have not tried that but will on my next one). You want to be able to easily move your brush around the canvas.
Last, but not least, if you are on the fence about getting one of these - get one, you won't regret it :)!

This one is a little more challenging than the other ones but stilll very fun and enjoyable to take your time on! Would recommend :)

The idea of gifting to my college age grandson who loves camping in the forests and mountains led me to this site. I loved paint by numbers in my youth, over 70 years ago.

I love relaxing and doing a painting while remembering my visit to each park. Such a great way to decompress from work and make beautiful, meaningful art for my home.

I do paint my numbers all the time. This is by far the highest quality piece that I have worked on. Even though it’s only 24 colors, They have still managed to make it very intricate and detailed. The numbers on the canvas are very clear and the canvas is also printed with different colors so you can tell what goes where. The only complaint that I have is That the paint’s dry way too quickly. I feel like I’m constantly adding water to make it the correct consistency as the top of the paint starts to dry in the pot.
