“I was sidelined from a running injury and decided to try paint by numbers for something to do. The kit arrived quickly-no more than a week after ordering. The last time I completed a paint by numbers was about 40 years ago. I had forgotten how much fun it is! Some of the numbers and spaces were quite small, but I purchased a spotter brush and magnifying head gear which helped considerably.
I’m so glad I found this website and new hobby. It’s really been a relaxing and enjoyable way to pass time during the pandemic. I plan on ordering more from Masterpiece By Numbers in the future.”
“This was given to me as a gift to help keep me busy during Covid. I am 74 and do a lot of arts and craft especially original paintings (tole, acrylic and oil). I am a crafter not a professional, but do understand basics. I have done paint by numbers in the past, but found this one especially challenging due to the micro small spaces. Thankfully I have a lighted magnifier lamp which I brought in from my craft shop, and this did help tremendously. I definitely suggest this item for anyone struggling with the small spaces. You can find reasonably priced ones on many websites for sale. I also found the Cardinals needed a "blended" effect to really set this painting off. For future paintings, I will go forward with this experience and I am sure I will enjoy them to the max in the future as the design is beautiful, as are many in your collections.”
“It’s great with one exception - there are some areas with no number, and they are not on the guide either. I love that the colors are all mixed, so much better than having to mix half the colors. Paint goes on beautifully. Still working on it a little every day. My cardinal needs some adjusting. At the moment he looks slightly demented! My fault. Lol.”
“This painting was just as high quality as my last. The canvass and paints are top notch! It was a total joy to paint, although some of the shrub sections were tough on the eyes.”
