What is Paint by Numbers with your own photo?
Paint by numbers with us is the clean, modern version: instead of acrylic paint and brushes, you work with numbered felt-tip pens. Each field on the canvas has a number, and each pen has the same number — you simply color in field by field and watch your photo appear piece by piece. No drying time, no water, no mess on the kitchen table.
With the "Your Own Photo" option, you personalize the motif. Upload a picture of your dog, your children, a travel memory, or a favorite landscape, and we'll translate it into a numbered canvas with exactly the right colors. This creates a unique piece that exists nowhere else. Prefer an existing motif? Then the Collection Kits are a beautiful, ready-made choice.

What size should I choose for my photo?
The right size depends on the motif and the space where the canvas will hang. A few pointers:
- 30×40 and 40×40 cm: ideal for a single portrait or a close-up. Perfect for a shelf or next to other picture frames.
- 40×50, 40×60 and 50×50 cm: the most popular choice — enough room for detail without the canvas dominating the room.
- 50×60 and 50×70 cm: beautiful for group photos or detailed landscapes.
- 60×80 cm: a real statement above the sofa or bed. More fields, more detail, more wow.

How does it work? From photo to finished canvas
From uploading to framed picture, it's just a few steps:
- Choose your size on the product page and upload your favorite photo.
- We create your canvas. We transform your photo into a pre-printed canvas with numbered fields and assemble the matching numbered pens.
- You paint. Work from top to bottom and from light to dark, field by field. This keeps your hand clean and your overview clear.
- Finish and hang. Let the canvas rest, stretch or frame it, and give it a nice place.
Because you work with pens, you can stop anytime and continue later, without anything drying out. That's why paint by numbers is so popular as a relaxing, mindful hobby.
Your own photo or a ready-made kit?
Both are nice — it depends on what you're looking for. The "Your Own Photo" option is a single canvas of your picture: the most personal gift you can give. The Collection Kits, on the other hand, contain two canvases with the same color palette, so you create two matching pictures with one pen set — wonderful as a diptych above the sofa.
With the kits, you also choose how many colors you want: 24 colors (Essential, beginner-friendly), 36 colors (Detailed), or 48 colors (Premium, finest detail). Popular motifs include Mediterranean Summer, Mountain Landscapes, and Japanese Serenity. With the "Your Own Photo" option, you don't make this choice yourself — we assemble the perfect pen set that matches your photo.
