When selecting your Paint by Numbers kit, you will need to choose how you want your canvas delivered. It's important to choose the right option for your needs! Here is a simple breakdown of the three choices we offer:
1. No Frame (Rolled Canvas)
- What you get: You will receive just the canvas itself, carefully rolled in a hard cardboard tube to prevent any wrinkles or creases.
- Best for: People who want to paint on a flat surface (like a table) and plan to buy their own custom frame from a local craft store after the painting is finished.
- Please note: This option does NOT include any wooden bars.
2. DIY Frame (Do-It-Yourself)
- What you get: You will receive the rolled canvas PLUS a set of 4 wooden stretcher bars and some thumbtacks.
- How it works: Before you start painting (or after you finish), you will need to assemble the wooden bars into a rectangle, stretch the canvas over it tightly, and secure it with the provided thumbtacks. It takes about 10 minutes and is a fun little project!
- Best for: Those who want a framed look on a budget and enjoy a hands-on crafting experience.
3. Pre-Stretched (Ready to Paint & Hang) ⭐ Most Popular!
- What you get: The premium experience. The canvas arrives already professionally stretched tightly over an inner wooden frame.
- Why people love it: You can open the box, place it on an easel (or your lap), and start painting immediately! There are no creases, no assembly required, and once you finish painting, it is ready to be hung directly on your wall.
- Best for: Beginners, gifting, or anyone who wants the most convenient, hassle-free painting experience.
