Helping Mindfulness With Custom Paint By Number

We all need time to relax. Time to let the weight of the world lift from our shoulders and allow the cares of the world drift away. But in our increasingly troubled times, this is not always as easy as it seems. We can be beset by worries, switching on the television can only add to them, as we hear more about the rising cost of living that is creating a crisis in so many lives. Reading needs a level of concentration that may only add to our stress. But in recent years, colouring, and the rise of adult colouring books, has shown that this pastime, more often associated with children, can actually have real health and relaxation benefits for adults when it comes to mindfulness.

As a child I used to love painting by numbers sets, which allowed you to replicate wonderful pieces of art by following the number code to add the correct colour to a pre designed paper or canvas. I used to spend hours just painting, it was certainly something that helped my concentration incredibly, and I was always so proud of the finished results – it didn’t really matter how good it was, it was actually completing it that was the sense of achievement. Today Custom Paint By Number are offering the same experience, with a range of paintings that go from landscapes to portraits, from pop art to animals.

The Custom Paint By Numbers designs range from basic to really intricate images and patterns. This makes them perfect for both children and adults, and this can become a hobby shared by the whole family. They can help self confidence and mindfulness in so many ways. For instance, they are a perfect way for a young budding artist to learn about colour and pattern, whilst gaining confidence in their ability to produce their own works of art. It improves the fine motor skills, which means that it can have a positive effect on things like handwriting, and therefore school work, and can also have a clear impact on improving concentration levels, developing this important life skill.

For an adult, they can be a perfect form of relaxation, a way to shut out the world and concentrate on one thing, creating something that is beautiful and magical. You can spend as long or as little time as you have on this, which means it is a hobby that fits in with your lifestyle, and can be something that you can keep returning to. The fact that it is an aid to concentration is just as important for adults as it is for children, and Custom Paint By Numbers is a real aid to this. In addition, you have the added bonus that you can turn one of your own photographs into a Paint By Numbers canvas. This means you could give this as a lovely gift, for instance, a picture of grandchildren gifted to grandparents, or of a favourite pet gifted to a child. It could even be a special place, or an occasion like a wedding day, that could be immortalised in Custom Paint By Numbers.
