Frequently Asked Questions

What size are the pieces?
Four rounds of about 6 x 6 inch each.

How is this different from the Madhubani coaster kit?
These four rounds are 6 inch and meant for the wall; the coaster kit has six 4 inch rounds with a table stand.

Is it hard for a beginner?
No. The outlines are engraved, so you are colouring in and adding lines rather than drawing.

Can I use my own paints?
Yes, any acrylic or poster colour works on the MDF surface.
