A Note From Our Founder

William Murdock, Founder, Paint On Numbers Canada

"When we started sourcing increasingly detailed painting kits for our Expert collection, I realised that a magnifying lamp wasn't just a helpful accessory; it was a necessary tool for a truly high-quality result. Painting tiny numbered sections without adequate light and magnification is genuinely frustrating. This is the tool I wish I had recommended from day one. It works equally well for paint by numbers and for diamond painting, and it is the single accessory that makes the biggest practical difference to how long and how comfortably you can paint."

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the best magnifying glass for paint by numbers?

For most painters, yes. The combination of a wide general lens for orientation and a 5x inset lens for the smallest numbered sections covers every situation you encounter during a painting session. It outperforms clip-on reading glasses for this specific use case by illuminating the canvas and leaving both hands completely free.

Does it work for diamond painting too?

Yes. The 5x inset lens is specifically designed for reading the tiny, often similar symbols found on diamond painting canvases and for placing drills with perfect accuracy. It is one of the most useful diamond painting tools available at this price point.

How is this better than reading glasses?

Reading glasses magnify everything uniformly, including the background, which can make it harder to focus on the specific section you're painting. This lamp directs targeted magnification and light precisely where you're working, leaving the rest of the canvas in normal view for context. Your hands also remain completely free.

Will the clamp scratch my desk or frame?

No. The clamp is lined with soft padding to ensure a firm grip without scratching or marking your work surfaces. It fits securely on desks, table edges, wooden painting frames, and most easels.

What batteries does it take?

3x AAA batteries, not included. Standard AAA batteries from any grocery or hardware store work perfectly.
