Easter Bunnies and Floral Egg Paint by Numbers

Easter bunnies and floral egg paint by number kit: three rabbits around an engraved egg

Three whitish rabbits sit around a large Easter egg engraved with swirls and small flowers. The egg takes the centre of the square canvas, so the format suits the composition. Two yellow daffodils and snowdrops line the grass in the foreground, and the sky stays in pale blue and white. Beige, white, yellow, green and blue dominate, which gives a soft spring palette. The rabbits' bodies are broad flat areas that go quickly, while the egg patterns hold the fine details. That mix is why we rate this picture intermediate, with around 12 to 30 hours of painting depending on the size. You will find more spring designs in Easter paint by numbers. If the daffodils and snowdrops appeal to you, flower paint by numbers has more garden scenes.

Tips for painting this design

Start with the pale blue sky and the grass. They are the two largest areas, so most of the canvas is covered early. Paint the rabbits' bodies in beige and white next, keeping the lighter shades for the muzzles and paws. Work the egg's engraved patterns with the fine brush once the flat areas around them are dry, so the paint does not run into neighbouring zones. Leave the yellow daffodils and snowdrops for last. A 30x40 cm or 40x40 cm size gives the small flowers on the egg enough room.

Sizes, colours and painting time

The design comes in 15x15 to 70x80 cm (12 sizes). You choose a kit of 24, 36 or 48 colours, on rolled canvas, with or without a wooden frame to assemble. Allow around 12 to 30 h depending on the size.
