I want a nice, not massively detailled, colour in canvas for dd2's birthday.

Preferably not a "colour by numbers" one, just something she can colour then display. Maybe a cute animal or simple mandala.

Searching "colour in canvas" on amazon is showing me lots of paint by numbers Confused what should I be trying?? (Preferably amazon/somewhere with free delivery!)

Thanks Xmas Smile

Found a few online though I didn't check Amazon - couldn't face the trawl!

Check out the "Colour-in Canvases" on the Baker Ross website - they have a range of designs that are quite simple (not paint by numbers). They also do those fuzzy art colouring pictures with the black flocked bits? Blast from the past! Baker Ross have loads of fun crafts.

Wilko has a "Colour In Your Own Canvas Unicorn" on their website.

The Hobbycraft website has some if you search "colour in canvas", but they may be a bit too fussy for a 2yo.

Good luck, hope your daughter has a lovely birthday!

I second Baker Ross! I have bought a few nice Christmas ones from there recently.

I also bought one or two easy ones in Poundland as they occasionally have some in their craft section so might be worth a try?

Failing that lots of places do blank canvases so another option could be for you to draw a picture for her to colour or she might like to have a go at drawing something? I bought a set of small canvases last year and my son loved drawing his own artwork 🙂

Hope she has a lovely day! X

Thank you. I've only ever shopped on Baker Ross for specific things rather than browsing so will take a look on there this evening once I've had a shower Xmas Smile
