Picture this: It is Friday night. You and your favorite people are collected around a charcuterie board. A bottle of pinot noir has been opened. Conversation is flowing as you paint in little numbered shapes. You’re fully relaxed and happy and know this is exactly what your soul needed.

Sounds pretty ideal, right? I thought so too, so we made it happen. 10/10. Highly recommend.

We may have been a bit ambitious. After four hours, we hardly made a dent. Plan accordingly.

I thought it would be tough to find something that could actually be framed and hung up in our house. However, there are actually so many options available on Amazon. Since I already looked through pages and pages of designs, I’ll save you some time and share some of my favorites.

Painting by numbers is a great solo activity too, and offers many benefits. This includes improved focus and concentration, boosting self esteem and confidence, mindfulness, stress relief, and relaxation to name a few. It’s also provides a safe space for creative expression without the need to be artistic.
