- In this video, I start and finish a paint-by-number kit called Lakeside Morning by Dimensions Paint Works. This one is time lapse only with no chatting about technique, as I felt there wasn't anything new to mention. Thanks for watching! Enjoy!
I purchase most of my paint by numbers locally or on Amazon.

I so want to paint one now. I remember doing these in the 70's. Amazing to watch it go so 'quickly'.
Thanks! Compared to cross stitching, these do go super fast! :)
Love the flowerbasket in the foreground! I paint with the german company "Schipper". Excellent motifs, lots of colours, no mixing and no pre-painted areas.
Thank you! I'll have to look into Schipper 😊
so enjoyable to watch you bring this peaceful scene to life!!! Wonderful job Christine!!
Thanks Becky!! :)
That’s lovely. The trees in particular look so realistic.
Thanks! Yeah, it's pretty cool to see it come to life!
A beautiful painting and you did it to perfection!!
Thank you so much 😀
Very beautiful. Thank you for this video.🍀🍀🍀
Thank you! 😊
So enjoyable to watch! It is beautiful
Thanks Wendy! :)
That was so satisfying to watch, beautiful job xxx
Thank you! :)
I just subscribed because of these paint by color time lapses.. They are very enjoyable and relaxing to watch..your voice and your choice of music is very calming after a hard night as a nurse.. I repeatedly watch them because they help me unwind..Please make more of these.... 😍😍😍
Thank you for subscribing! I appreciate your kind comment and that you find it relaxing :) I don't do paint by numbers very often as my main hobby is cross stitching. However, I did just purchase an autumn PBN that I'm 'hoping' to work on in November. I'll try to get some footage of it :)
This turned out so great!! Such pretty colors, too!
Thank you! It was a fun one!
This was soooo soothing! Love it!
Thank you!! Just what we need these days, right!?! :)
it is amazing!
i have watched so many paint by numbers time lapse videos and most of them dont know how to do a pnb. they just overtake the line laugh dont correct the mistake but you are so good! u know how to do this and i love that! and other than that.... just spreading some love
Thank you so much for your kind words! I have a lot of fun with it. I really need to get another painting going. Take care 😊
This is lovely, Calico! So I saw that you mixed two shades for the non-numbered areas. That's new to me. I finished one PBN but there were no directions on that step, so I assumed it was black. This inspired me to look into Dimensions Paint Works. Thanks!
Yes, the Dimensions kits have numbers and letters. The numbers are just the straight colors and the letters are 2 colors mixed 50/50. I highly recommend their kits!
I have done this exact same painting and now I’ve completed 12. I’ve given 5 away to family & display the rest. They are very relaxing to do and look forward to painting every evening. I normally paint for about 2 hours per day. Depending on which one I average 50 hours per painting. I do put at least 2-3 coats of paint on each color. I find one coat just isn’t enough.
That is awesome!
I find painting to be very relaxing as well. I need to get another one going. Maybe over Xmas break😊
Brilliant job.
Thank you! 🎨🖌️
Ahhh! I’m immediately adding a clean white sheet of paper to my painting.
👍☺️
That’s so pretty! You did an amazing job
Thank you so much! It's been a nice distraction!
wow, this is so good!!!
Thank you! 🖌️🎨
Looks great, well done!
Thank you! :)
Beautiful work!
Thank you! 💕 🎨🖌️
Very cool!!!
Thank you 😊
So beautiful
Thank you!
Comme elle est belle !
Lovely :)
Thanks Joanne! :)
Watch this at 2X speed, even better
Great!
Thanks!!
I'm always amazed how good these look when you're done. Congrats on your finish!
Thank you Kim! It kind of amazes me, too! :)
How do you tell what colors the letters are?? I’m super confused 😅
Wow. You did all this in a day? Impressive.
No, I'm not that fast 😂, it took several weeks.
@@calico_whimsy well, I feel less inadequate. Thank you for telling me it took several weeks. It’s beautiful, however.❗️😘🥰😍
I love seeing your progress in the paintings. Intresting to see the differences between the kits. Yours seem to be on carton or is it wood at the back? Mine is just the canvas and came rolled up as you can see in my first video.
Thanks!! I think it's called artboard. It's great to paint on!
what are those clear round pieces that have the downward tab.Mine also came with a black dot ,what is that for exactly for
Hmmm, I'm not sure what you're referring to. Can you tell me at what point if the video you see this?
i, i have just bought a number paint. i would like to know how you know what colour you have to psint when it is a mixture of 2 colours. how is it indicated?
Hi! The only brand I have done that uses mixed paint is the Dimensions brand and they use letters to indicate the areas where the mixed paint goes ( you need to refer to the key to see the required 2 colors to mix. I hope that makes sense 😊
Are their any Paint by Numbers kits that have a smear-zone, I'll call it, between the outlines / lines?
I like your video
Thank you!
How come you mixed some of the colours? Was that on the instructions or so you know by experience? Great painting
Hello! Yes, the instructions for this kit have you mix two colors 50/50 for the areas marked with a letter instead of a number. Hope that helps!
Wow! Doesn’t that look like a peaceful scene! Will you frame this one as well?
Thank you Liz! Yes, I will frame this one just as soon as I get the other two framed 😂😂 No, that hasn't happened yet, but I do have them sitting where I can enjoy them anyway 👍😬
How is it that you are getting it to blend together? I have tried to zigzag and that sometimes work my huge problem are faces. I love doing the Marie Antoinnette portraits and it looks horrible. One of them. Looks like a preschooler did it. Number one ,gray is not my choice of color that I would’ve chosen for the face but that is what it came with. It did not have a lot of detail but the picture did I’m not quite understanding how to actually blend that and it’s an actual fight every single time and sometimes I just go to another painting and don’t even finish it because I’m so agitated. Could you do a video on this please? And thank you in advance.
I'm so sorry you are having such a rough time with it. I feel that I'm not much of an expert with blending and no experience beyond the few PBN kits I did. That being said, when I had to do blending for the first time, I had to search youtube for some techniques. I found a channel that really helped and I'll try to find it. Also, I do talk a little bit about my own struggles with blending in the video I did with the Eagle. If you go to my playlists, you should find the video under Paint by Numbers. (if I link it, youtube will remove my comment) I'll try to find the other channel as well.
OK, this is the one that helped me, but she makes it look so easy, lol! Her name is PaintyKat . Let me know if this comment goes through and doesn't get deleted :)

Did you do the dry brush technique on this painting? And if so how do you go about that?
I painted this awhile ago so I can't remember exactly how I did the sky. I may have used a dry brush technique similar to the way I did it in my Eagle painting. I'm not an experienced painter so I can't give too much advice in that area 😊
Dimensions has the best paint pots
I agree! I haven't tried many other kits, but so far Dimensions have been great👍
@@calico_whimsy they sit up well. They are made better than the other type
The paint was clumpy in my dimensions paint set. It almost looked a little bit like cottage cheese. Did you have that same problem and if you did what did you do to get rid of the clumps?
I was just responding to your other comment, but now I see that it is a Dimensions kit. It sure sounds like it might need a thinner. Not sure what that would be, but I hope you find a solution. My paints were nice and creamy
Flow aid will dilute it
Hey! Your painting is amazing!!! Do you have the link to the picture you painted? I would love to give it a try.
Thank you! If you look in the description box for this video, there will be a link to my Amazon Favorites. You should find the link there. Let me know if you have trouble! Happy painting!
How does your paint flow so easily mine doesn't stretch far at all?
Are you painting a Dimensions kit? Maybe the paint is old or starting to dry. I didn't do anything to my paint, that's just the way they came. 😊
How do you know how much to mix? Does the pattern says so?
Yes, it says to mix it 50/50, so I just give it my best shot 😊 . I think as long as you're close, it will look great!
Where do you get the paint holder thing that u used with the very first color, my kit didn’t come with that..is it very helpful?
Hi! Those are just plastic paint palette s that you can get at any craft store or on Amazon. I find the very helpful for mixing and you can re-use them 😊
Desiree, if you have a dollar tree you can get them there they come several to a pack for &1.00
@@melitalaycock4241 Great tip! I'll remember that when I need more 😊👍
Don't forget to replace the clear plastic top--otherwise the paints will dry out
Also, be sure you tag with painters tape each color you mix--be sure to cever the paints when done!
Does the paint needs to be added with water? Yours look so amazing!
No, the paints in the Dimensions Kits are ready to use and they are very nice!
@@calico_whimsy Thank you! I don't know how to explain it because the colors on mine is uneven, like for one color, some part of it is a bit darker than others but maybe it depends on the product quality itself :)
@@rosedew5932 Now that I think back, they did need to be stirred. I just use a toothpick until it looks even 😊
@@calico_whimsy Thank you for tips btw, your brush looks good, what brand did you use? :)
@@rosedew5932 For most of the painting I just used the one that came with the kit. I also bought some really inexpensive ones at Hobby Lobby for the blended parts. 😊
I can't for the life of me get my brushes to stay within the line so perfectly. I end up ordering my pain and doing paint washes and then adding several layers as I go because I evidently suck at paint by numbers.
Awww, don't give up! Are you using the brush that came in the kit? And is it a Dimensions kit?
Get some real brushes (I like Sable hair or Taklon, but I'm not an artist)... and learn how to keep them CLEAN and 'pointed' (if they're a point brush), like it's your sole mission in life. If you don't clean a brush properly, immediately after use, you might as well throw it in the trash. I like to swish them around in a small cup of paint thinner or whatever appropriate solvent (refreshing with clean solvent as necessary) until they're clean, then dip them in solvent, and 'point' them on a paper towel (you just roll the brush, as you drag it across the paper towl, so the tip forms a point). You'll figure it out, with common sense.
Probably the easiest way, is to go down to your local art store and buy a small selection of different types of the same brush size/shape and see what you actually like using the best.
I’m currently doing a dimensions kit too. But I find the lighter colors don’t cover up the letters or numbers on the canvas 😕
Same here and It's frustrating. I've heard that it's a problem with most, if not all pbn kits. I try to go back after it dries and dab more paint over the number. I just bought another kit with tons of white 😜😬
I dab the numbers with white and then use the intended color.
@@calico_whimsy I have a bottle of white paint--I usually paint the complete ligt are--number by number--and the fill each in with the correct color.
@@JayA-jl7jf Thank you for the tip!
How to do toning ?
Hello! By toning, do you mean how do i mix the colors? The pattern states which 2 colors to mix, then you just take roughly the same amount of each color 50/50 and mix them together. It doesn't have to be perfect for the result to look great. :)
where do yo buy them, its been hard for me to find this type
It's been hard to find them right now because of the quarantine, but I can usually find them at local craft stores, Amazon and a website called hobbylinc(.com) Sadly, Everybody is out of stock right now :(
@@calico_whimsy there is a brand that is bad quality paint, i like the one where you have a color reference and for some you have to mix paint, and it is on cardboard, what is your experience?
@@calico_whimsy i cant find the factory page, ive been writing all over the place lol
@@calico_whimsy thank you for your help
Well, I'm very new to paint by numbers and have only done 4 and 3 of them were Dimensions Paint Works. I really love Dimensions, because I love that you paint on a board and it's easy to frame. Someday I'll try one that comes on a canvas but I know there are a lot of poor quality kits out there.
It is not as easy as it looks. I notice when paint by numbers come in a box, the numbers are easily seen. as when it does not or comes on a canvas and only numbers so small. my first craft fail.
I'm sorry! Don't give up! Did you see the video of my first attempt? It is not really very good. I really think it depends on the kit.
This is exactly what we fixed when we created our kits. We eliminated the numbers altogether because either they're hard to read or they're hard to cover up. We instead color code our lines to match the color of the paint that goes in that section and we've found that it works much much better!
Do you know how many hours it took you to complete the whole thing? I'm working on one right now and I've already got 15 hours of painting in and only 3 colors done...lol
I wish I would have tracked the hours on this. I think it took roughly a month ( I can't remember) and I worked on it maybe 1-2 hours a day. Hope that helps! Are you doing a Dimensions kit?
@@calico_whimsy The one I'm doing now is a Paint Works. I don't know if I'm just pathetically slow or what...lol!
@@marlacraig1873 Nah, i's not a race....as long as you enjoy it, take your time and relax while creating something beautiful!
@@calico_whimsy So true! I hope mine turns out as beautiful as yours! You do a great job!
@@marlacraig1873 I'm sure it will be beautiful! I'd love to see it if you care to share. Are you on Instagram?
Calico--how do you know what to paint first?
You can start anywhere, but just keep in mind that you don't want your arm to be sitting in the part you just painted. For me, since I'm right-handed, I like to start in the upper left or anywhere on the left side. Not sure how left -handers would do it. 😀
Learned by doing!
@@calico_whimsy I'm a lefty, I start at upper or lower right
@@sandiscott9412 Good to know! Thank you 👍👍
@@calico_whimsy Im left handed and go from right to left instead of left to right
how'd I get here ?👁👄👁

you missed a bit
The PBN I ordered are terrible quality. The paint is thin transparent the lines and numbers are not covered even with double triple layers I threw all three paintings unfinished away. Such crap
I'm so sorry you had a bad experience. I have heard there are a lot of bad ones out there. If you can find one by Dimensions Paintworks, they have all been great quality for me so far.
@@calico_whimsy Ledgebay is GREAT!
This is exactly what we fixed when we created our kits. We use thinner paint that spreads better and still has better coverage. Plus we color coded our outlines to match the paint color and eliminated the number so you don't even need to worry about covering it up in the first place!
