Before You Begin:

  • Choose a Well-Lit Area: Ensure ample lighting to see your work clearly.
  • Protect Your Surface: Use a plastic tablecloth or paper to avoid paint spills.
  • Keep Water Nearby: Have a water container for rinsing brushes between colors.
  • Have a Cloth or Paper Towel: Essential for drying brushes between washes.

Let’s Start Painting:

Match the Number with the Correct Color:

While it may seem obvious, focus on painting areas with a specific color before proceeding to the next. Allow each color to dry thoroughly to prevent blending or bleeding. Clean your brushes meticulously to ensure no color mixing.

Covering the Numbers:

Apply additional paint layers as needed to conceal the numbers completely. Be patient and avoid excessive paint application. Start from the top and work downwards, focusing on smaller areas first to prevent smudging.

Additional Painting Tips:

  • Use a Magnifying Glass: Helpful for painting smaller, intricate areas.
  • Practice Brush Strokes: If you're a beginner, practice on paper first to gauge the paint amount needed on your brush.
  • Take Your Time: Allow ample drying time between colors and paint cautiously to avoid errors.

Framing Your Masterpiece:

Once your painting is dry, it’s time to frame it. At Painted Memory, we offer exclusive framing kits that include everything needed to create a robust frame swiftly.

Conclusion:

Now, all that's left is to find the perfect spot to showcase your artwork in your home. Happy painting with Painted Memory!
