General Questions

Yes. We stock a wide range of themes (landscapes, animals, florals, famous-art inspired, modern/abstract, and more) and different detail levels. If you want a faster project, choose a simpler design or a smaller size.

Yes. The canvas is numbered, the paints match the numbers, and you can paint at your own pace. Most people start with lighter colors and bigger sections, then move into smaller details.

Yes. You can turn your photo into a custom paint by numbers kit. We create a numbered canvas from your image and match the paint set to the design. Custom kits work best with clear, well-lit photos where the subject is easy to see.

Your kit includes:

  • Numbered canvas

  • Matching paint pots

  • Brush set

  • Reference image/guide

  • Basic instructions

Shipping & Delivery

We ship from the closest available fulfillment location for your item. Some orders ship locally, while others ship from our production partner depending on stock and product type.

Delivery time depends on the item and destination. We ship as fast as possible once your order is confirmed.

This usually happens during hand-offs between shipping partners or sorting centers. Tracking may pause for a few days, then update again once the next facility scans it. If you see no movement for 7+ days, contact us and we’ll look into it.

We email tracking details as soon as they’re available. Check your spam/junk folder if you don’t see it. You can also track your order using the tracking page on our site.

Yes, if the order hasn’t shipped yet. Message us as soon as possible with your order number and the correct address. Once a package enters transit, changes depend on the carrier.

This usually happens because of an incomplete or incorrect address. If the package returns to us, we can reship it after we confirm the correct address. In some cases, a reship fee may apply depending on carrier charges.

In most cases, customers don’t pay extra at delivery. If your country applies import fees on certain packages, the carrier may request payment. If you’re unsure, message us before ordering and we’ll tell you what to expect for your location.

Order Changes, Cancellations, Returns

If your order hasn’t entered production or shipping, we can usually cancel it. Contact us quickly with your order number. Once we pack or ship it, we can’t guarantee cancellation.

Contact us with clear photos of the issue (box + product). We’ll review it and arrange the best solution, replacement parts, a replacement kit, or another option depending on the situation.

Often, yes! if we haven’t started processing the order. Send us your order number and what you want to change, and we’ll help if timing allows.

 

No. Custom kits are made specifically for your photo, so we don’t accept returns for “change of mind.” If something arrives incorrect or damaged, contact us and we’ll fix it.

If your item is unused and still in its original packaging, you can request a return within our return window. You’ll cover return shipping. Once we receive and inspect the item, we process your refund to the original payment method.

Payments & Checkout

Yes. Checkout runs through secure, encrypted payment processing. We don’t store full card details on our servers.

We accept major credit/debit cards and popular express options (shown at checkout), such as PayPal, Apple Pay, and Google Pay where available.

Double-check your billing details, try another payment method, or contact your bank. Some banks block online or international transactions by default.

Please contact us first. We can usually solve the issue faster than a dispute (tracking checks, reshipments, replacements, or refunds where eligible).

Custom Kit Questions

Use a photo that’s:

  • Bright and sharp (not blurry)

  • Close enough to see faces/details

  • Not heavily filtered or too dark

  • Clearly focused on the subject

If you’re unsure, message us before ordering and we’ll give you a quick opinion.

It will look like your photo, but it won’t match it pixel-for-pixel. Paint by numbers simplifies an image into a set number of colors and sections. That’s what makes it paintable and fun.

Photos can contain thousands of shades. A paint by numbers kit uses a limited palette to keep the project doable, so some tones will shift slightly while still keeping the overall look.
