Custom Paint by Numbers Kit - Turn Your Photo Into Hand-Painted Art

1. Choose the Photo You’d Like to Upload (Photo Quality Tips)
To create the best custom paint by numbers design, we recommend uploading a clear, high-quality photo. Ideally, your image should be 1000 × 1000 pixels or larger, with the main subject clearly visible. A sharp photo helps us capture important details, create a more accurate painting template, and select suitable paint colours for your finished piece.
If your photo is not perfect, don’t worry. Our team will carefully review your image and optimise it where possible before creating your custom paint by numbers design.

a. Clear photos work best – Choose a sharp image with visible details.
b. Good lighting matters – Bright, natural lighting helps create better colour accuracy.
c. Keep the subject clear and close – Faces and pets should be large enough to capture details.
d. Simple backgrounds are recommended – Cleaner backgrounds help create a more balanced cross stitch design.

2. Use the Image Below as a Guide

***Almost any meaningful photo can be transformed into a custom paint by numbers artwork. Our team will carefully review and adjust your image to create a painting-friendly design with the best possible result.

4. Choose Your Preferred Size and Add to Cart
If you would like to order multiple custom pieces, please repeat the process for each item, as one image can be uploaded per kit.
If you experience any issues uploading your photo, you can still complete your order and email your image or design request to: support@wovlia.com.
Please include your order number so our team can quickly match your photo with your order and begin processing your custom paint by numbers kit.

Choosing the right size helps your custom paint by numbers capture more details and create a clearer, more beautiful finished painting. We recommend selecting a size based on your photo composition, number of subjects, and the level of detail you’d like to preserve.

Single Subject — 1 Person or 1 Pet
10" × 12" — Best for simple close-up portraits, pet photos, or images with one clear subject and minimal background details.
12" × 12" — A good choice for square photos featuring one person or one pet with a simple composition.
12" × 16" — Recommended for most single-subject portraits when you want clearer facial features and more room for details.
16" × 16" — Ideal for square portraits with more background elements or a slightly wider composition.
16" × 20" — A great choice when you want to preserve more facial details, textures, and background elements.

Two Subjects — Couples, Friends, or Two Pets
16" × 20" — Suitable for two subjects with a simple background and a clear focus on the people or pets.
20" × 20" — Ideal for square couple or pet portraits with a balanced composition.
20" × 28" — Recommended for two subjects when you want larger faces, better detail, and more of the original background included.

Family & Multiple Subjects
20" × 28" — A good option for photos with three people or pets and a relatively simple background.
24" × 24" — Best for square family photos or group portraits with several subjects.
24" × 32" — Recommended for family portraits, group photos, or detailed scenes where preserving faces, expressions, and background details is especially important.

Tip: The more people, pets, or small details your photo contains, the larger the canvas should be. Choosing a larger size gives each subject more space and helps create a clearer, more detailed finished painting.

1. What photos work best for a custom paint by numbers kit?
For the best result, we recommend uploading a clear, high-quality photo with good lighting and a clearly visible main subject. Ideally, your image should be 1000 × 1000 pixels or larger. Sharp, well-lit photos allow us to capture more detail and create a more accurate painting design. You can also refer to the image examples above, where we’ve provided detailed guidance to help you choose the best photo for your custom artwork.

2. Can any photo be turned into a paint by numbers kit?
Almost any meaningful photo can be transformed into a custom paint by numbers artwork. Portraits, pets, family photos, wedding pictures, travel memories and landscapes can all work beautifully. Our team will review your image and adjust it where needed to help achieve the best possible result.

3. What if my photo is not perfect?
Don’t worry. Our team will carefully review your photo before creating your custom design. Where possible, we will optimise the image to improve clarity, composition and overall suitability for paint by numbers.

4. What canvas size should I choose?
The best size depends on the amount of detail in your photo. Simple portraits and images with one main subject can work well at smaller sizes, while family photos, group portraits and detailed scenes generally benefit from a larger canvas. You can also refer to the detailed size guide above, which provides helpful recommendations to help you choose the most suitable canvas size for your photo.

5. Will the finished painting look exactly like my original photo?
Your custom design will be created to closely represent your original photo, but paint by numbers uses defined colour areas and a selected palette of paint colours. Because of this, some fine details, colours and textures may be simplified to create an enjoyable painting experience and a beautiful finished artwork.

6. How many people or pets can I include?
You can include multiple people or pets, but keep in mind that more subjects mean smaller details, especially on smaller canvases. If your photo contains several subjects, choosing a larger canvas size will usually provide a better painting experience and finished result.

7. Can you remove or change the background of my photo?
In many cases, yes. Simple adjustments may be possible to help make the main subject stand out and create a cleaner painting. If you have a specific request, please let us know when submitting your photo.

8. Can I see previews of my custom pictures?
Send your pictures to us via email at support@wovlia.com, and our designers will create preview renderings for you.

9. Is custom paint by numbers suitable for beginners?
Absolutely. No previous painting experience is required. Each section of the canvas is numbered to match the corresponding paint colour, making it easy to follow and enjoyable to complete at your own pace.

10. Do I need to mix the paints?
Most areas are designed to be painted using the colours provided, so you generally do not need to mix paints. Simply match the numbered paint pots to the corresponding numbered areas on the canvas.

11. What material are the canvases and paints made of?
High-quality cotton canvas and acrylic paint – 100% safe and non-toxic.

12. Should I choose a paint by numbers with 24 colors, 36 colors, or 48 colors?
The decision on how many colors to choose for a paint-by-numbers project depends on your personal preferences and the desired level of detail in the finished artwork. There is no right or wrong choice between 24, 36, and 48 colors. If you want to create a more detailed and realistic picture, a higher number of colors is often beneficial.

13. What if I run out of paint? Can you provide more?
Of course! This is rare, as we include enough paint in every kit to complete your artwork. However, if you do run out of a colour, please contact us and we’ll be happy to send you the additional paint you need free of charge.

14. Do you offer a money-back guarantee?
Yes. We offer a no-questions-asked money-back guarantee. If you’re not satisfied with your order for any reason, simply contact us and we’ll arrange a refund. While no explanation is required, we always appreciate your feedback, as it helps us continue improving our products and service.
