Giving a kit to paint your own photo (your pet, a trip, a special moment) is one of those exciting gifts. The only problem: getting the photo without him realizing it.

Where to find the photo

  • His social networks. It's the easiest source. Look for old posts: they usually have photos of trips and important moments.
  • Shared albums. Family groups, friend chats or travel albums in the cloud.
  • An accomplice. Your partner, a brother or a friend can send you the perfect photo without raising suspicions.
  • Do it you. At your next meal or walk, take lots of photos “just because.” No one will suspect.

Which photo to choose

Not all photos work equally well for painting by numbers. Look at this:

  1. Good light: better during the day and without strong shadows on the face.
  2. Sharp: that is not blurred or pixelated when enlarged.
  3. Large protagonist: that the person or pet takes up a good part of the image.
  4. Simple background: the less mess behind it, the more what is important will stand out.

Trick: If you hesitate between several photos, stick with the one that makes you smile when you see it. It is the one that will make him most excited to paint.

And if time catches up with you

If you don't arrive on time for the date, give a gift card: this way he can choose his favorite photo calmly.
