Roses in a basket paint by numbers: roses and eucalyptus to complete yourself
A generous floral arrangement fills a woven wicker basket resting on a white lace tablecloth. Open blooms in carmine red and pale pink sit beside buds that are still closed. Sprigs of eucalyptus with almond green leaves add a contrast of foliage in the centre of the composition. The background is a light beige textile drape with soft folds. The main tones are deep reds, pastel pinks, soft greens and the ochre of the weave. It is a portrait-format, realistic design at intermediate level, with medium areas and some fine details.
Tips for painting this design
Start with the draped background areas, then the white of the tablecloth to build up the volumes. Next paint the eucalyptus stems to anchor the foliage. The buds and rose petals need the fine brush to keep the red and pink variations clearly defined. To bring out the texture of the wicker, apply the dark browns before the lighter shades. Choose the 40x50 cm size if you want to keep the lace details. If you prefer a gentler start, browse our flower paint by numbers collection for other floral designs.

Questions about this design
Which size should I choose for this floral design?
The 40x50 cm size works well for the texture of the wicker and the many rose petals. Smaller sizes reduce the sharpness of the lace patterns. The kit comes in 9 sizes, from 20x30 to 60x80 cm.
Are the petal details difficult to paint?
The level is intermediate. Layering the rose petals calls for precision with the fine brush supplied, but the fabric and background areas are medium-sized and paint quickly.
Who is this paint by numbers kit for?
This design suits people who like classic floral compositions and realistic still lifes. Once mounted on its wooden frame, it fits easily into a plain interior.
Which colour should I start with in paint by numbers?
Start with the draped background areas, then the white of the tablecloth. Next paint the eucalyptus stems, then the dark browns of the wicker before the lighter shades. Save the roses for last with a fine brush.
Is paint by numbers difficult?
