I LOVED it. BE ADVISED
This was my first time doing one of these. I LOVED it.BE ADVISED, since this one, I've started another and realized this one is probably considered an "advanced". But still it turned out beautiful. I just had to learn techniques. I also purchased better high quality brushes. Colors are different than pictured but not TOO far off. Still beautiful. I have definitely found my new favorite hobby.Also, I have a full time job and I'm a mommy so it took me about 5months working off and on to finish and near the end my paints started to thicken making it harder to paint. I simply added a couple drops of water and carefully stirred with a tooth pick. This made the paint SOOO much easier to work with.ENJOY!

Paintable, but not perfect
Not as good as the Dimensions brand. Came on I mounted, loose canvas, which I expected. Did not expect it to be folded leaving irreversable crease marks and cracks in the middle of the canvas. Red lines and numbers much, much harder to cover than the dimensions brand with gray lines. I did appreciate not having to mix any colors though, and none of the paints were dried out or chunky.

Girlfriend loved it, but I wish in came in rolled, not folded.
I got this for my girlfriend, and she really enjoyed it. She would look forward to coming home from work to relax and paint. According to her, there was enough paint, but the brushes themselves were just okay. If you plan on doing this, and other paint by numbers, it might be a good idea to buy a separate set.The only big flaw was the fact that it came in folded up. This left noticeable creases horizontally and vertically along the picture. After we framed it, we had to put it somewhere that didn't allow the viewer to see it up close enough. From a distance, it's hard to see the creases. If it came rolled up in a cardboard tube, like a poster, it wouldn't be an issue.

Its on Canvas!
I recently bought 3 paint by numbers. The first I hated. It had you mix paints for different colors plus it had colors that were not even on the picture. The second one is just like it, I will be donating it to the goodwill and not even starting that headache. This amazing piece is stunning. It comes with screw etc to hang it, brushes, even a magnifier to see the numbers!! and.....no mixed numbers to do. All is one number and that is it and hugly this beauty is on canvas (not mounted or stretched) so huge thumbs up. I will only buy from them now on. Save the hassle and headache, this one is awesome. :)

Love it!
This is my first Paint by Number and it is going very well! Everything came as described. So far everything is going well. My reason for 4 stars is the canvas came folded. I would recommend the seller rolling the canvas and shipping it. I hot glued the canvas to plain canvas boards that were cheap here on amazon. So far no issues and the canvas is slowly releasing the creases but I'm not sure if it will ever be free of creases.

Adorable!!!
This was a great Paint By Numbers to start working on to get me back into painting! The paint brushes were cheaply made and fell apart, so I purchased separate brushes to finish this painting. Adorable!! I purchased it with no frame.

Colors not as bright
The colors are not as bright as I was hoping for and I could honestly use a little more then what they provided for some of the colors. But this pictures turned out great, I did use a couple colors from another painting that had some left over bright colors. This does look great hanging on my wall though.

Love it
Exactly as expected. Fun

Great product! My new hobby!
Absolutely love this product! Took me about 20-25 hours to complete. The canvas comes folded with a heavy crease, however I ironed the backside which got most of the crease lines out. I then used a damp cloth and wet the back of the canvas, then stretched/mounted it onto a wooden frame for $3, removing all creases before painting. I also ordered the 'Our Romance' piece, which looks significantly harder and more time consuming. I'm guessing it will take double the time to complete. I'm so excited to start it! I plan on ordering many more pieces in the future !Update: took one star away because the 'our romance' piece does not turn out as advertised. The colours are not as bright and it's not nearly as detailed as advertised on Amazon.

Excellent birthday present for someone interested in paintings and arts
Got this as a birthday gift for a 12-year old who is interested in painting and other arts.- The instructions are easy to follow and the process of creating this painting is also quite easy. The 16x20 inches is a decent size and the kid got it done in 2 days, during spare time. So, easy to do and does not take much time.- Does improve your focus as you concentrate in the numbered areas and the colors.- Best part is that the material is canvas and you can mount it after your are done and pretend to your friends that you actually created the painting (and not that you simply filled in the numbered areas with instructed colors). So, this is excellent if you want to fake being a painter.- The only negative we could think of is that the acrylic color set that comes in this set may not be enough if you are one of those "artists" who like to dab too much color.

Consider other options
I love doing these types of products abd the design was cute however this paint by numbers is not as good as other brands I have ordered from. It did come quickly but the canvas was folded leaving noticable creases that won't come out and the paints aren't opaque enough to cover the numbers without many coats. I've also found that many of the colors don't match the photo provided. The final product looks okay but I will be ordering from other providers in the future.

Not the same colors as the picture described
Not the same colors as the picture described. And theres no outline on the edge of the pages. However, Amazon did give me a full refund as I was not impressed.

sub-standard paint
I have done a number of these kits and this one has the worst paint ever. The paint streaked when applying regardless of colour. Dark colours needed 2 coats while lighter colours required up to 5 coats to hide the numbers and where necessary the lines.And yes I made sure to mix the paint and it didn't help.

I would not recommend this painting.
The painting did not come out like the picture at ALL!! The purples are not as brilliant as advertised also there is NOT all the lamp posts that show as advertised. I'm very disappointed.

Fun project
Great project for beginners! I would have left 5 stars, but some of the paints were so cheap I had to do 5 layers (like all the hot pink and red spots). Otherwise, it was a fun project to do during the coronavirus lockdown. Actually reduces a lot of anxiety.

Not bad.
Decent paint by numbers set. Does not come with a frame, just the canvas. The 3 paint brushes that came with it aren’t great, one did break pretty quickly after using it. The paint it comes with is decent quality. Overall, it’s a good time waster.

Great colour
I love this painting. I am just about finished it and have thoroughly enjoyed working on it. I would suggest a magnifying glass as some of the areas are really small. Very relaxing. I would certainly do more of these.

I love it!
I love that it's not like any other paint by number I ever painted. Love the colours and pictures. Love that it does look like what is advertised. Only down is the paint brushes BUT for a project like this an investment for better paint brushes is well worth it!!Also, if you have a problem, the seller is quick to respond - Good product - Good people!

Our 5 year old did this
Good quality paint and canvas. Our child loved it. She spent about 5 hours on it over 2 days and we are blown away at what she did. The whole family wants to try one now.

Grande toile pour le prix!
Je suis très satisfaite du produit. La toile est d'une bonne qualité et belle grandeur pour le prix. Je recommande. Mon seul commentaire négatif est le fait que la toile soit pliée et non roulée pour l'envoi, ce qui laisse une marque des plis.

Cheap product
Very disappointed in this product, it didn't even come in a box! The picture to paint from is a little 5x5 square that is really hard to see......will not buy these again!

packaging the canvas folded cracks the painting side
Came folded which put creases in the canvas that ironing and laying flat with a heavy box on for days did not get out. Also along the fold line the canvas cracked which makes the numbers very hard to see. Product would be better packaged rolled. Not enough paint included in the kit.

Loved it.
Unfortunate it came folded instead of rolled, but it was still great. Super fun and enough paint for all of it.
