What paint should I use to paint wooden door hangers, canvas, wooden photo frames?

I decorate things for babies %26amp; kids rooms like, wooden door hangers, frames, letters and things like that then I sell them. I've been using a cheap acrylic paint and I'm having to do a lot of coats to make them look any good. I was wondering if Oil paints would work better? I've just read that oil paints can take up to 6 months to dry completely. Is there any other paint I could use or should I try some more expensive acrylic paint?What paint should I use to paint wooden door hangers, canvas, wooden photo frames?
I definitely don't think oil paint would work. It does take forever to dry, and it's hard to clean off.


Go with good quality acrylic, house paint would work because you'll probably only need one coat.What paint should I use to paint wooden door hangers, canvas, wooden photo frames?
Sand any rough areas of the exterior as these products are for kids.


Apply a primer and allow the primer time to dry.


Then you can use casein paint or acrylic paint.


You can use a paste wax to give a protective finish and a slight gloss.
