Review: Easy Canvas Prints!

This past couple of weeks I've been whittling down my Christmas gift list for extended family. My husband's folks are always a challenge to shop for. I always want to give them something memorable and unique, as well as something they will like and keep around. They've moved to a new place and I haven't seen it yet, so I knew it would be really hard to find the right thing... until I hit on this. :) Pictures match everything. But framed prints are too simple and easy to really take the Christmas spotlight. Doing a canvas print stepped up my game in just the right ways.

I had the opportunity to review a canvas print from Easy Canvas Prints .Com. I was thrilled! I wanted to do it way back this summer, but alas, I have a terrible time getting everyone together for a picture. Finally, my dad was here visiting, so I "put upon" him to spend part of an afternoon photographing our family. So fun! It was hard to get a serious pose, but we finally did it. Hard part finished, on to make the canvas!

When I say getting the picture was the hard part, I really wasn't kidding. The website made creating my print a snap, and I was done in minutes. I actually played with it for a while so I could see all the features for this review, but really was amazed I could create a simple canvas print so quickly and easily.

I opened up the website and followed these simple steps:

• Choose the size: I went with 8x10"
• Choose the thickness: 3/4" is included, but you can choose 1 1/2" wrapped edge, or a frame, for an extra fee
• Upload your image: making sure the quality is up to par with the size you choose. 
• Zoom and center your photo: especially since the ratio on the canvas might be different than what your camera takes
• Choose your border options: I went with mirror image, since I didn't want to zoom in any more
• Choose your final color and touch-ups: black and white and sepia options are available
• Add to cart! All through the process, there is a project total price in the upper right corner so you know how the choices you made effect the bottom line. The shipping was free too!

Final product:
I ended up getting two prints for my review, and they came in separate boxes and well packed. The shiping was quite quick! Overall I was VERY happy with the ease of ordering, and with the quality. I would truly recommend you check them out. Also be watching for good coupon deals, as they offer them frequently. (Who doesn't love that?!?!)
