Vintage Lavender Fields Paint by Numbers

Vintage lavender fields paint by numbers kit: a Provençal poster to paint

Rows of purple lavender run towards an ochre stone farmhouse, with two dark green cypress trees on either side of the building. A stylised sun sends yellow and orange rays over rolling hills, and the word PROVENCE sits in capital letters on the image. A textured beige border closes the design. The square format gives you one clear focal point on a wall. The level of detail is medium: the sky and hills are large areas that go quickly, while the lavender rows and the stones of the house ask for a steadier hand. If you like retro travel posters, the retro posters in our vintage paint by numbers collection follow the same style.

Tips for painting this design

Start with the sky and the sun, where the large yellow and orange areas let you settle into the numbers. Move on to the ochre hills, then to the rows of lavender. On small sizes such as 20x30 cm or 30x30 cm the purple flower areas are tight, so choose 40x40 cm or larger if you want the clumps easy to separate. Use the fine brush for the PROVENCE lettering and the branches of the cypress trees. Finish with the beige border. Allow around 12 to 30 hours depending on the size you pick. If you enjoy painting blooms, our flower paint by numbers collection is a natural next project.

Sizes, colours and painting time

The design comes in 20x30 to 60x80 cm (9 sizes). You choose a kit of 24, 36 or 48 colours, on rolled canvas, with a wooden frame to assemble or with the canvas already mounted on its frame (except in 50x70 and 60x80 cm, delivered rolled). Allow around 12 to 30 h depending on the size.

What's in the kit

• Canvas:The linen canvas arrives with the outlines and numbers already printed for the farmhouse, the lavender rows, the sun and the PROVENCE lettering.
• Paint:The numbered acrylic pots are ready to use. Choose 24, 36 or 48 colours: the larger sets give you more tones for the purple of the lavender and the yellow and orange of the sun.
• Brushes:Three brushes are included. Use the fine one for the cypress branches and the lettering, the medium one for the hills and the wide one for the lavender fields.
• Guide:The paper guide to the design lets you check pot numbers on the lavender rows and the stones of the farmhouse.
• Optional:The wooden frame to assemble stretches the canvas for hanging. Without it, the canvas arrives rolled in a tube. You can also choose it already mounted on its frame, ready to hang.
