AI-generated wood grain pattern on a nutcracker

Pattern Creator

Describe what you're imagining — "rustic barn wood," "blue marble with gold veins," "glittery red velvet" — and AI creates a seamless, tileable pattern you can paint onto any part of your nutcracker. It's the fastest way to go from idea to whoa.

Questions? We got you.

What exactly do I get with Premium?
Everything listed above: AI Pattern Creator, unlimited Theme Helper, Cozy Corner, Materials library, Back View, Sparkle, Thin Borders, Paint Together with up to 6 people (premium tools unlocked for all participants), and advanced Polls (up to 5 active, private/blind voting, analytics). Plus the ability to edit any shared design, not just free ones. All features, one price.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yep. You can cancel from your account page whenever you want — no hoops to jump through. You'll keep premium access until the end of your current billing period.
What happens to my designs if I cancel?
Your saved designs stay exactly where they are — they're yours. You just won't be able to use premium tools (Pattern Creator, materials, etc.) to create new designs until you re-subscribe.
Does it work on my phone or tablet?
The whole site works on mobile — we actually have a lot of users who paint exclusively on their phones. Premium features work everywhere the site does.
I only want one feature. Can I buy them separately?
We don't sell features individually — at $5/month for everything, we figured it was simpler (and a better deal) to just include it all. Most folks end up using features they didn't expect to love.
I have another question!
Hit us up at help@paintmynutcracker.com or find us on Facebook. We're real humans and we actually read everything.
