Loved making art for my home!

I had so much fun putting together and painting my art kit from Plan! I genuinely hadn’t painted/crafted/been creative in years, and having this outlet that also allowed me to make something for my home was awesome. Also, the kit includes so many high quality tools (e.g. brand new staple gun!) that you can reuse! Looking forward to ordering my next kit to make another piece of art for my home!

Special mother-daughter moment

I ordered a double Plan kit as a Christmas activity for me and my daughter, and I’m so glad I did.

It was such a nice change from the usual holiday rush. We built our canvases (which I didn’t expect to enjoy as much as I did) and then sat side by side painting and chatting for hours. It felt really special. Now we each have our own finished piece at home, and it’s such a lovely reminder of that day.

Really thoughtful concept. I’d definitely recommend it if you’re looking for something a bit different and meaningful to do together.

A treat to myself!

I treated myself to an art kit to decorate my office after I spotted them on Instagram. It arrived a lot quicker than I expected which was fab!

The build itself was pretty straightforward and actually quite satisfying. Once I’d decided on what I wanted to paint I felt I had more than enough paint and art tools to go a bit wild!

Bought as a gift for my Mum

Bought as a gift for my Mum, went down amazing! She is super excited to get started on it and the extra "inspo" material has really helped!

Highly recommend as a gift for someone that is creative.

The BEST way to spend an afternoon

The quality and level of detail in every kit is so well thought out it took any stress out of setting out to do a crafting activity. I felt so liberated and relaxed while doing it and super satisfied with the outcome. I would definitely do one again as a wholesome activity with friends or perfect for a a date night!

I received the Plan kit as a gift

I received the Plan kit as a gift. It was the first time I had ever painted starting with a blank canvas which can be daunting at times but the team at Plan provided a series of inspirations to get you started together with a playlist which helped get the creativity going. It was especially great to have two practice canvases included in the kit as this allowed me to test what I wanted to do first. It was a very satisfying experience building the frame and then painting my masterpiece which is now hung in our living room. Would recommend to anyone wanting to switch off and get creative.

Date Night 🥰

We got this kit as a date night activity as we thought it would be a special way to spend an evening in with a bottle of wine! The kit and everything in it, is such high quality. We were so impressed by this aspect. The instructions to build the frame and canvas are super easy to follow, you really can’t go wrong. So satisfying when it’s assembled and ready to paint. The most exciting part is of course, deciding what you’re going to paint and after a quick search for inspo on Instagram off we went. All the brushes and paints are there for you and we had loads left at the end so I could go back and layer/add more texture. Our artwork now has pride of place in our guest bedroom. Fab product and would definitely recommend for those who have a vision for a piece of art they would like to recreate to enhance a space in their home 🫶🏼

A great gift idea!

I was looking for a gift for my girlfriend which would allow her to explore her creative side. We were really impressed by the kit we received from Plan. The instructions were clear and very well presented and the materials provided were of a very high quality. Her work is now hanging with pride in the livingroom!

This would make an excellent gift for a budding artist or a seasoned pro!

A great kit for Art pros and newbies alike!

Such a great idea for newbies to art (like me!). Quick delivery, with lot of updates. The kit includes absolutely EVERYTHING you need, and the stuff is really great quality. (I can see myself using the staple gun for a lot of other stuff, the brushes can be washed and used again etc). Plenty+++ of paint, so I could try it out on some paper before I painted my canvas. Some locally sourced material - the frame feels so solid and feels like proper wood craft!
Very useful videos/instructions. This is NOT "fast food", it is like slow cooked, "soul food"!

(Now that I think about it, I might buy a few kits for Xmas pressies, actually!)

Hearing that the process felt straightforward and that your piece is already up in your hallway made our day.
