Christmas paint by numbers kits combine a thoughtful gift with a screen-free summer activity. Every kit includes linen canvas, numbered acrylic paints, and professional brushes.

Christmas in Australia arrives in the middle of summer. Long evenings, school holidays, and time at home with family create natural space for creative activities, and paint by numbers sits in a particularly useful position for this time of year. It is engaging enough to hold adult attention over a quiet evening, accessible enough for any skill level, and produces a finished piece that has meaning beyond the holiday itself.

This guide covers the festive designs available in the range, how paint by numbers works as a Christmas gift, the ordering deadline you need to know for delivery anywhere in Australia before Christmas Day, and how the buy 2 get 1 free offer works for family and group gifting.

Christmas ordering guide for Australian customers

Standard delivery
Order by mid-December for confident Christmas arrival. The exact cutoff depends on your state. NSW, VIC, and QLD have slightly shorter transit times than WA, TAS, NT, and remote areas.
To be safe
Order by the 10th of December for all Australian states including WA, TAS, ACT, and NT. This gives you the full 12-day maximum window plus a small buffer for any unexpected shipping variation.
Custom kits
Custom kits require the same 8 to 12 day delivery window. Apply the same December 10 cutoff for a comfortable Christmas arrival. Order earlier if possible as the design process adds no extra time beyond the standard window.

Why Paint by Numbers Makes a Great Christmas Gift in Australia

A paint by numbers kit presents beautifully as a gift and provides hours of enjoyment beyond the unwrapping moment.

Most Christmas gifts are consumed quickly. A paint by numbers kit extends far beyond the moment of unwrapping. The recipient gets weeks of creative activity, a finished canvas worth displaying, and the satisfaction of having made something with their hands over the Australian summer break.

It is one of the few gifts that works across a wide age range. Adults who have never painted before find it immediately accessible. Adults who are experienced crafters appreciate the quality of the materials. Parents and grandparents enjoy it alongside the children in the family. The buy 2 get 1 free offer means that if you are buying for more than one person, the third kit is automatically free with no code needed, making it particularly good value for family gifting.

Who It Works for as a Christmas Gift

Adults and parents
A screen-free creative activity for someone who never has enough time for hobbies during the year. The Christmas and summer break gives them the time to actually start and enjoy it.
Retirees and seniors
Paint by numbers provides fine motor engagement, focused creative activity, and a satisfying finished result. Many older Australians discover it as a hobby during the summer months and continue year-round.
Teenagers
A creative alternative to screens during the long summer holiday. Works as a solo activity or alongside family members each working on their own canvas.
Children aged 5 and up
Our kids range has designs specifically made for young artists. From $21 AUD with stretched on frame option at $26 AUD.

Custom Christmas Gifts: Personalised Paint by Numbers

If you want to give something truly personal this Christmas, a custom paint by numbers kit from a photograph is one of the most considered gifts available at any price point. You upload a photograph and our artists design a fully numbered canvas by hand. The recipient paints a portrait of their pet, their family, a holiday memory, or any other photograph that has meaning to them.

Custom kits start from $36 AUD for a 30x40cm canvas and are available in four sizes up to 60x80cm. A dedicated custom pet portrait kit is also available for Australian customers who want to paint their dog, cat, or other pet. Our custom kit guide for Australia covers the full process, photo selection tips, and sizing options.

Apply the same December 10 ordering cutoff for custom kits to ensure arrival before Christmas Day.
