Enjoyed working on this one. This is my 5th paint by numbers and by far the easiest one. Good for beginner. Colors are vibrant and its so cute!

Positives: Very nice painting as a gift. Fun and cute for people who love Totoro. The painting set comes with a rolled up canvas, a smaller reference picture, mini paint pots with number and brushes. All you need is a glass of water for the brushes. The template image of Totoro and friends is gorgeous. The painting canvas itself comes in outlines of the scene with numbers in the center. You just match the number on the section on canvas to the paint pot number.
Negatives: The picture that is posted on Amazon is a little misleading because it looks 3D but it is just image on flat convas that is shipped rolled up. You have to buy the frame. The written description is accurate though. Secondly, while painting the picture, the number on the canvas that correlates with the gray part of Totoro’s body matched up to a green color in the paint pots sent. There was no grey color in the paint kit. So, Totoro’s grey body ( that is seen in the reference picture provided in the kit) ends up being green?? Luckily, using the paint colors that were given, an appropriate shade of grey was mixed by using different colors. Hence the 4 stars. How can a Totoro painting have a green Totoro?
Bottom line: Hours of fun for anyone. Gorgeous painting. Worth the price. Does take a while to ship- be patient (the shipment arrived ahead of the shipping deadline). Also be prepared to not be able to track your shipment. You just know that your order is shipped and then when your order arrives at your doorstep. Finally be wary of mismatched colors.

This painting was one of the best that I have encountered!!! The paints were nice and thick, but not too thick. The canvas was of good quality and absorbed the paint nicely. The whole painting was laid out well, and very easy to follow—never got lost once. The painting looks pretty much like the small picture that came with it. My only complaint is that some of the lighter colors did not cover number/lines very well (typical for most kits). I very much enjoyed painting this one!!! The end result was a very nice painting to hang.

Easy enough for my 7 year old and my 12 year old niece. It was fun and only took about an hour or 2. A couple leaves weren’t numbered, so they just made them whatever color they wanted so it wasn’t a big deal. Fun and nice that it’s already on a framed canvas.
W. Chea –
Great piece for beginners. Colors are not as diverse as others which makes it more difficult to paint.

Granddaughter painted this canvas. It was fun but would choose another image next time as a bit too much blue on this one. It doesn’t show up as well as multicolored ones.

Great for an hour or two, which is all it takes. Looks just like the picture.

I had ordered a paint by number kit for my daughter. Didn’t realize “high quality” meant it was an unframed canvas. So the search was on for stretcher bars. With the stores closed because of the virus I went to Amazon. It took a while to find one that would work because the picture was a tad smaller than 16 X 20. Got helpful advice from this seller. Shipping was fast. On assembly I ran into a problem. Wouldn’t fit if I followed the instructions, because of the glue strips. I tried a variety of ways. Had to walk away from it because I got frustrated. Then I tried reversing how the directions showed to place glue strips. It worked! I measured multiple times to get it positioned just right then put it together. The canvas reached the sides, but didn’t wrap to the back, so I put a staple every 2 inches as close to the back edge as I could. Then got a tube of black acrylic paint so the small white edge around the picture that shows – and the sides can look like it was designed that way. My daughter was thrilled and she ordered an easel set from Amazon so her daughter could do painting with her!

Lovely colors,This painting was a little difficult as the numbers were small. But, when it came together, it was worth the extra effort.
Kyle McGary –
I love the painting it just took too long for me to finally get it

Incredible painting,This finished as an unbelievable finished painting. More than enough paint. Canvas comes rolled up so hardly any creases.

My daughter loved this art gift! She spent a lot of time working on this and was very proud of herself when she completed the painting!
Matt Feldbauer –
Pretty easy to assemble kit. Used it to hang a painting my girlfriend made and it worked fantastic. Really nice finish. I would recommend looking up videos on how people get nicer corners when stretching a canvas, The way the instructions says to is a bit finicky and not as good of a corner in my opinion. That being said, the kit works great and when all done makes your canvas look professional on the wall!

I paint very small details !!!
ronald coleman –
quite time,still working on it,there is so much detail, and it is relaxing. I find some paints go on easier then others. the lighter colors are more corse then darker ones. Over all this is my third one and I do enjoy them
Linda Baker c/o Old Republic Title –
Loved it!,I’m ordering more.
Amazon Customer –
Good gift idea.
ThyDuBiDang –
Hi. good one , a little expensive though
Caitlin Kain –
Loved it. The directions were clear and it was easy to follow. It’s a really great activity to do and I’ve really enjoyed doing it.
Tips:
1. start with the big areas and work in the intricate parts
2. The map is your friend
3. The light colors are going to need a lot of coats of paint so take your time with those area.
4. The painting calls for black pain in the gray shaded areas. I didn’t have black paint in mine so that is just something to think about.
5. When I did it I did it in sections and that made it easier to organize the painting.
Tara Ranger –
Almost perfect!,I loved completing this painting. Very relaxing. My only suggestion is that a paper copy of the design I(including numbers) be included. I had a hard time reading some of the numbers they were so tiny
Peace Train –
The kit is well put together and had plenty of paint. The canvas arrives folded but I found it easy to get out the creases with a little water and ironing on the wrong side. I like that the lines on the kit aren’t in super dark gray so they are easily covered. The brushes are cheap and a second small brush may be helpful to finish out the project. This was my first project and I enjoyed it. Do I want to display finished products in my home? Not really, but it was so much fun I’ve already bought two more Paint by Number kits.

Great brushes for the price

Nice little box,This painting was such a joy to do. I just love the colors and it looks great in this frame!
Paula Rabun –
Flower,The only tricky part for me was mounting the canvas before I started. I had to find the right size stretcher bars (cheap and readily available online) and wrestle with the canvas and a staple gun. But it was worth the trouble, and much cheaper than getting it done by a professional.
Donna –
Had a ball painting this!
janell johnson –
Perfect for Fall,I love the darker colors for fall. It almost looks like a spooky tree!
John Hurley –
I use these brushes for miniature painting. They do a great job of getting into small areas and hold their shape well. I have more expensive sable hair brushes, but these have become my go-to.
Janet Hinton –
This was very easy to use and is a great quality product.

This is my fourth 3rd and 4th painting. I just love making them.
Megan Williams –
Love love love this paint by numbers! It was super easy to do and totally goes with my cat theme in the cat room … which is basically the whole house. LOL
Emerald City Dancer –
Was actually really really pleased with this. I have almost zero painting experience but had a long three day weekend on my own and on a whim ordered this kit. I picked it over others because it came pre-framed (it looks like a bunch of others is just the canvas and then you have to stretch it over a frame – no thank you!) and it comes with an easel which just made me feel more “painterly”. Overall painting experience 10/10. My only quibble was that there were not instructions on how to assemble the easel so I mostly just figured it out after fussing around with it a bit. Fair warning, you’ll need a screw driver.
Patricia Harris –
Captivating,Everyone loved this one, including me. Took time of course, but I’m very pleased with the result.

Didn’t realize it was on a canvas not hardboard!
Makes it harder for a older person to paint.

It is as discribed
Kate G –
Absolutely love!,I enjoyed doing this so much, I ordered another one as soon as I finished. The colors are beautiful and I spent hours relaxing and painting. I like layering the paint on thick, and I ran out of #2 paint but I was able to replace it with the other blues. It isn’t an exact match of the original painting and some of the colors are slightly off (the branches are more green in this) but it still came out looking great! I would even consider doing this one again and give it away as a gift. Recommend!

Very fun project!
VaLori –
Wow!! Love it! So easy.
Amazon Customer –
Love it! Easily marked and paints of good quality. Loved it!
Eileen Holloway –
A little more challenging than I thought it would be. Definitely for an adult with patience.
Sarah –
This paint by number is fun and super relaxing. I love painting new decor for my house.
Prime Customer –
Great way to start painting for someone stepping into it. The only issue with this product we felt is that the colors are in very tiny containers. They should consider giving more color since the beginners may need room to correct mistakes and redo stuff.
Amanda Lancaster –
These paint by numbers are amazing! My husband and I each got one but had very low expectations. These far exceeded our expectations! The material is more like an inexpensive canvas and is much bigger than we anticipated. The paints seem to be really good quality and cover the numbers well. It came with 3 different sized paint brushes as well as hooks you can use to hang the painting when complete. Definitely worth the $13.99 paid!
Deanne82 –
This is a great product if you like doing art projects. I was coloring and wanted to try something different. I used to do paint by numbers as a kid and wanted to try it again. I was not disappointed. I recommend.
NThomas –
I bought this during quarantine for my 7 year old to work on with me. This was way too hard for her. I ended up doing most of it. turned out cute enough and she was happy to hang in her room.
Abby Manchesky –
This was my first experience and now I’m hooked! Loved the results.

Item was perfect and ended up looking great after the painting was finished.
Shannyn Kyle –
This set is amazing! It did take forever to get in (but I blame COVID 19 for that). The paint went on smoothly and wasn’t clumpy. Most of the colors covered well, but a few were a little sheer and required more than one layer. My boyfriend loved this painting! Great price and definitely worth it!
Gonzalo De Cesare –
Amazing! Perfect condition on arrival. The paints are great and go a long way. So impressed by how it turned out. Almost completed it and wish I bought the version with a frame!

This design’s so nice and soothing. The color combination is gorgeous, and there’s plenty of little details to paint that will keep you entertained for hours.
I have amassed quite the collection of paint-by-number kits during the pandemic (I find painting without having to think much, just following the instructions very relaxing) and normally DIY kits are a bit above average quality: the designs are printed on a nice white canvas and the outlines are not too bold, so they can be covered nicely with the paint. The quality of the paints is average (nice colors but the light ones are too thin and you’ll need to apply several layers). The brushes are flimsy: they do the job, but if you plan on doing more than one paint, get yourself a nicer set of miniature brushes. Now, what could be improved: the canvas comes folded, so you’ll have to iron it, and there’s no schematic included, which is annoying because sometimes you need to check back on numbest for sections that have been partially painted.
Sandra Gosline –
Beautiful deep colors,The details in the faces make the painting look professional. Highly recommend this kit.
Ashley S. –
It came with plenty of paint. The papers are a great size too. This is great for beginners like me, no matter the age. Maybe when I am done, I will frame them. Highly recommended to keep you pre-occupied or to help you get into that artistic scene.
Shaliah Perkins –
This is amazing! I love and I bought it to paint for a birthday gift. I would definitely recommend this! Only problem I have is that with the lines to and numbers it’s hard to cover them up without using a lot of paint.
Lorrie Kueffer –
Couldn’t find these anywhere else!,These stretcher bars are easy to use and complete your painting. Very reasonably priced and I couldn’t find them in any local store.

Paint was super thick, and brushes were ok but a little cheap and bristles started coming off. I managed though. Overall good!!

For some reason when I attach a picture it uploads upside down??? Not sure why.

This was a birthday gift for my granddaughter. It is really unique–so colorful.
Anna Schwartz –
Lovely piece of art,I had fun recreating this painting. I didn’t quite follow all of the lines. I found a photo online of the actual painting and then did some more shading in the sky around Mount Fuji. All in all, it turned out impressive-looking and I’m glad to hang it in my living room wall.
Banlicai –
It’s a great gift choice. I bought this and took me a week to finish it. The finished product is very beautiful. I think it will be a very meaningful birthday present for my best friend. I just framed it.
Herb Sleesman II –
Excellent product
Jess –
This is my first paint by number. I’m having fun doing it. Only complaint is a couple of the paints were really thick, so added a few drops of water. Worked great. I’m still not finished tho.

I have looked them over and the kits are complete and look nice. I have done many diamond art kits. They are fun to do, like a paint by number with flat bottom, sparkly beads.
Brandi Outman –
I haven’t painted this one yet but I have gone through the package. I love the easy to read numbers and creamy paints. Very few translucent colors, when I did a test for them, which is very nice! Very excited to start this painting.
