Canvas Press Review and Giveaway!

I love choices-- ok so maybe the toothpaste aisle has too many choices, but there could never be too many choices when it comes to art and decorating your home! Canvas Press is an awesome company devoted to making sure your favorite pictures and portraits of friends, family and special places are forever memorialized in beautiful, lasting canvas! 

Now, no longer is it only the elite that can afford to make beautiful art from their pictures, but everyone! All it takes is access to the internet and the capability to upload your pictures to Canvas Press! Canvas Press takes care of the rest! You get to choose the thickness, wrap style, size, whether you want canvas only, the type of border, color options (including sepia and black and white), retouching (which is wonderful if the photo you are making into canvas is very old and the quality might not be the best), and lastly-- even Oilworks! You can turn your beautiful photo into a masterpiece oil painting!
I was lucky to receive a sample canvas from Canvas Press! The gave me the chance to upload a photograph of my own, turn it into a canvas in the size of 16 by 20 inches, and I even got to choose the border! I chose image wrap where they print the photograph on the canvas and wraps the image borders around the edges of the canvas. I love the cohesive look! The photograph I chose is one of my all time favorites-- It's a picture of my husbands grandfather with both my girls. Not long after the photograph was taken, Poppi past away, so the meaning to me is very special. The picture itself was a very dark picture-- but with even the darkness of the picture, Canvas Press did a wonderful job at printing it as you can see from below.
