Cute designs and good canvas, but thin paints and odd shipping. Takes forever to arrive and two have come creased or damaged.

Awful. I ordered 2 canvases and 2 premium brush sets. I only received the canvases. I have sent 3 emails and left a voicemail. I am still waiting. Where are my brushes??

If I could give less stars I would.

If I could give less stars I would.

The customer service is terrible I ordered and 8 minutes later emailed to cancel the order. More than 12 hours later they processed the order and 20 minutes after said they cannot cancel. They have a no refund policy because the orders are 'specifically made for each customer'. This is a terrible company I will be taking this company through with consumer rights.

Haven't received the item. Long postage tomes

I ordered this item 8 days ago for my friend visiting for a little craft to do together. The website looks like it's based in the UK but when I ordered the order went through as dollars. It's been 8 days and the tracking still shows the item being in china. It's not moved at all. Very disappointed considering I spent a considerable amount of money on this.

Great customer service and product quality

I recently had the pleasure of shopping at Crafty by Numbers and was thoroughly impressed with my experience. The customer service was exceptional—attentive, kind, and always ready to assist with any inquiries I had. Their dedication to ensuring a smooth and satisfying shopping experience was evident in every interaction. Additionally, the products I received exceeded my expectations in both quality and functionality.

Will order again in the future!

To be honest, I was really nervous when I placed the order and then went and read reviews about people not getting orders and the tracking starts in China. Let's be honest - seeing that means the tracking will take WEEKS. However I placed my order on 4/23 in the hopes it would make it in time for Mothers Day (the range I was given was 5/7-5/15) and it made it in time! I got my order on May 9th (you get updates along the way). The quality is great, instructions on how to mark everything is clear, I can't wait to finish the painting!

Really disappointed with my order

Really disappointed with my order. It came almost 3 weeks late, even after paying for fast delivery. I requested a refund well before it arrived but they didn't respond at all. After requesting again, they responded with a generic email that didn't actually respond to my request...
They said it wasn't resellable but it's their most popular painting and not even opened so just overall - a poor service. Can't speak for the quality of the product as it hasn't been opened. Just wish I had the money back and went for one of their competitors. Will definitely next time.

My rating is 4 stars due to the canvas and reference sheet's faint lines and numbers, which are tough to follow. Enhancing the print clarity could solve this issue.
