Ease the process with these useful supplies to make the most of your painting.
Full size nylon brushes that hold their shape well. Have been using for a while and they are still holding up well.

Even with my reading glasses, I need help seeing the small cells on the canvas - this really helps. Plus, it has a light.
KARE and Kind 8 LED Dual Glass Magnifier
Perfect alternative to painting on a flat surface. I go back and forth between flat surface and easel - really depends on my mood. :-)

Some of the more intricate designs have the very tiniest of cells to paint. Having these micro fine brushes help me stay in the lines.
Nicpro 10PCS Micro Fine Detail Paint Brush Set
**Tip → Use a heavy body, titanium white to thicken up some of those paints that are too transparent to cover the numbers in the cells. Just a drop in the paint pot helps makes it opaque without changing the color.
MEEDEN Titanium White Acrylic Paint 2x100ml
Looking for something more stable than a handheld magnifying glass? When I don't want to hold a magnifying glass while painting, this works well to magnify and light your work area.
10X LED Magnifying Glass with Stand & Clamp
I love this because I don't even need soap. I add water and gently stroke them across the nubbers to remove the paint. For a deeper clean, add a few drops of soap.
Foldable Silicone Paint Brush Cleaner Mat
Buying already framed paint by number canvases can be costly - and I'm always trying to save a dollar. Instead, I buy bulk (blank) “value” canvases and staple gun my finished art on top. So much more cost effective.

Since I usually “frame” my own canvases, these hooks are a quick and easy way to hang them. They attached right to the back of the canvas frame.
