Who this list is for
This supply list is made for anyone hosting a relaxed craft night at home for eight adults. If your group wants to paint simple canvas projects together—no advanced art skills needed—this checklist covers what you’ll need. It’s not for professional workshops or specialty crafts, but for friends or family gathering around the table to enjoy painting and snacks.
How to use this list
Start by checking what you already have at home. You’ll need 10 canvas panels (a couple extra in case of mistakes), two sets each of acrylic paints and paintbrushes, and 10 paint palettes. Gather 10 water cups for rinsing brushes, four rolls of painter’s tape for taping off edges, and enough pencils and erasers for everyone. Lay out two plastic tablecloths to protect your surfaces. Don’t forget aprons, disposable gloves, and a drying rack or spare table for finished canvases. Set out four snack bowls for easy sharing.
Common mistakes
People often forget enough palettes or water cups, leaving guests to share and slow down. Skipping aprons or tablecloths can lead to messy clothes and stained tables. Avoid running out of paper towels—paint nights get messy. Make sure there’s a drying space for finished art; stacking wet canvases never ends well.
What is on this list
You’ll find canvas panels, acrylic paint sets, paintbrush sets, paint palettes, water cups, painter’s tape, pencils, erasers, paper towels, plastic tablecloths, aprons, disposable gloves, a drying rack or spare table, and snack bowls. Cross off anything you already own, especially basics like pencils or erasers.
Before you go
Double-check your guest count and confirm you have enough supplies for everyone. Test your paints and brushes to make sure nothing is dried out. Wash and set out aprons and tablecloths ahead of time. Prep the snack bowls with easy finger foods so guests can nibble while they work. Set up the drying rack or clear a table before guests arrive so finished canvases have a safe spot.
