Bob Ross by the Numbers (RP Minis) Paperback – Illustrated, October 2, 2018

Such a cute little creative gift! Perfect for a birthday or stocking stuffer. Note that this is a novelty and not super functional as an "art" gift. The paints are thin and dry quickly so they're challenging to mix and work with; if you need a tidy result or don't want to mix your own colors I recommend using markers or your own paint. Not really an issue as i didn't expect premium materials in a cute miniature set. Worth it for the novelty project!

Super cute stocking stuffer. Multiple people said they wanted one too after they saw it!

I was actually impressed with this mini kit. I got an easel and paints and a brush and instructions for 3 paintings. I was really happy with how they came out. Fun and easy. Great for yourself or gift.

Overall this is a great little gift.My mother loves painting and thought that this was adorable when I gave it to her. The mini easel is pretty cool as well. Overall a great little find.

Perfect shelf for a small bathroom. Easy to put together. Finding baskets to fit perfectly wasn’t easy but obviously not impossible. More importantly, it was a good price for the added extra storage.

I purchased the Bob Ross Paint by Numbers Mini as a gift for my husband, who's a huge fan of Bob Ross. Unfortunately, I didn't pay attention to the 'Mini' part, which made it a bit challenging for him to complete. The small size and intricate details required a level of patience and precision that wasn't expected.The paint quality also left a bit to be desired. However, despite these issues, my husband still enjoyed the experience and was happy to have a Bob Ross-themed project.If you're considering purchasing this product, I'd recommend it to those who have the patience and attention to detail required for a mini paint-by-numbers kit. Just be aware of the small size and potential paint quality issues.

Of course, the way these are outlined and built for you to paint, they won't look like a Bob Ross style painting, unless you go all out and highlight the cartoony bold spots (which CAN be done!). I haven't actually TRIED the paints yet, so I can't speak on that (and I'm not expecting the Quality Bob was so adamant about), but you can pretty much use any paint - maybe not thin water color though. The tiny booklet about Bob and some of his teachings is so cute and you get a few little pictures of some of his works! It's really a sweet and fun little kit that would be fun for ANYONE who likes art! It also comes with a tiny easel (which I'm not sure will work that well, but it's still cute!). The "CANVASES" are actually tiny paper pictures glued onto thick cardboard. Didn't like how misleading that was... But again, it's a cheap FUN little kit! Don't expect quality, but expect "cute fun"!

I gave it a 'one star' review as the numbers are not actually printed on the mini canvas. They are in the instruction book which you then have to keep referring to as you paint. Unsuitable for a child
