Paint By Numbers or Diamond Painting?

Both work well for beginners, but the making process and the final result feel different.

Paint By Numbers

Choose Paint By Numbers if you want to work with a brush and build the image colour by colour. The finished piece looks more like a painted artwork than a printed image.

Custom Paint By Numbers from your photo

Send us a photo and we turn it into a custom Paint By Numbers kit you can paint into a finished piece yourself. Every image is checked before production so it works as a finished painting, not just as a nice-looking source photo. If something in the image would weaken the final result, we contact you before production instead of simply pushing the order through.

Especially good for pets, portraits and important shared memories where keeping the expression recognisable matters.

New Diamond Painting kits

Here you can browse our newest ready-made Diamond Painting kits. Diamond Painting is a particularly good fit if you enjoy neat, repetitive crafting and want a finished piece that already looks striking.

Want to preview your photo before ordering?

In the Diamond Painting editor, you can upload your photo, preview the result straight away, crop the image and compare different sizes before ordering. It is the better route if you want to test options yourself before you decide.

If you want to see how your own photo works as a Diamond Painting before ordering, the editor is the better route. There you can adjust the crop, test the size and order a custom kit straight from the preview.

The best kind of switch-off for your brain. The best part is that you do not need to know how to paint and the result still looks beautiful.

A lovely way to spend time. The picture turned out beautiful even though my painting skills are almost non-existent. I would absolutely recommend giving it a try.

Frequently asked questions

How do I choose between Paint By Numbers and Diamond Painting?

Paint By Numbers uses acrylic paints and a brush on a numbered canvas, so the process feels closer to painting and the finished result looks more like a painted artwork. Diamond Painting uses small acrylic drills on an adhesive canvas, which creates a brighter and more mosaic-like finish.

Choose Paint By Numbers if you enjoy working with a brush and building the image colour by colour. Choose Diamond Painting if you prefer a neat, repetitive rhythm. Both work well for beginners.

What size and difficulty level work best for beginners?

A good first choice is often a 40x50 cm Paint By Numbers kit or a 30x40 cm Diamond Painting kit. The size already looks good when finished, but the project does not become too large straight away.

For your first kit, choose a clear subject without too many tiny details. In Paint By Numbers, easy or medium designs are a safe starting point. In Diamond Painting, round drills are usually easier than square drills. If you order a custom kit from your photo and the image includes faces or many small details, a bigger size usually preserves the result better.

How long does it take to complete one kit?

The time depends mainly on the size, the amount of detail in the image, and whether you work on it in short relaxed sessions or longer stretches. As a rough guide, a medium-sized Paint By Numbers kit often takes around 10–20 hours, while a similar-sized Diamond Painting kit usually takes around 8–25 hours.

A small project can be finished in a few evenings, while a larger one may stay with you for weeks. Most people work on their kit little by little, so it does not need to feel like one big task.

If you want a more detailed estimate for Diamond Painting, you can also read how long does diamond painting take.

Can I order a kit from my own photo, and what makes a good photo?

Yes. You can order a Paint By Numbers or Diamond Painting kit from your own photo. The best image is sharp and well lit, with the main subject clearly separated from the background.

Landscape photos, pets, wedding photos, portraits and meaningful group photos usually work especially well when the lighting is good and the image quality is clear. Blurry, dark, shadowy or distant photos work less well if the main subject ends up too small. Every custom image is checked before production, and if the photo will not make a good Paint By Numbers or Diamond Painting kit, we contact you before production.

What if I run out of paint or drills?

Kits usually include around 10–20% extra paints and drills. If your kit still came with too few paints or drills, we will send more free of charge when you email us at [email protected] and include the colour code and your order number.

You can also buy drills colour by colour here: replacement drills for diamond painting.

How fast is delivery?

Across the EU, delivery usually takes 4–8 business days with GLS Standard or 1–3 business days with DHL Express.

Custom kits also need production time before dispatch, because each kit is made to order. Orders ship from within the EU, so EU customers do not face customs charges on delivery.

Which products are made in the EU?

The products made in Finland include custom Paint By Numbers kits from your photo, custom Diamond Painting kits from your photo, and Diamond Painting orders placed through the editor.

In addition, all new ready-made Paint By Numbers and Diamond Painting kits are designed, printed, picked and packed in Finland. Some older stock was not manufactured by us.

Accessories, more specialised kits, and the materials used to make the products are not manufactured by us.

Is it easy to ruin one if I have never done this before?

Usually not. These kits are designed so you can get started without previous experience. You follow numbers or symbols step by step, so the process moves forward in smaller parts instead of depending on one perfect moment.

In Paint By Numbers, small mistakes can often be covered with the next layer. In Diamond Painting, single drills are easy to move or correct while you work. That is why both are beginner-friendly first projects.
