Canvas Press Review and Giveaway - Janice's Return Week!

"We’re glad that you’re taking a moment to learn more about what we do here. Your time is valuable, especially when it’s leading to the purchase of a timeless treasure. Did you ever imagine that the special photo from your wedding or vacation could be blown-up, enhanced and printed with digital quality on beautiful canvas? We do it everyday. In addition, our products resist fading for over 100 years! Part of our process involves the finest sprays, wood frames, inks, printers and canvas materials available. With Canvas Press, you can rest easy knowing that you’ve chosen the best."


My sister, Janessa, has a beautiful canvas in her living room and I was always jealous of it when I went to her home! 
When I found out that I was going to be able to review a 16x20 1.5" canvas print from Canvas Press I was so excited! I poured through all of our wedding pictures to find out which one would be the "chosen picture." I finally chose what picture I'd like for the canvas, made my order (which was SO EASY!), and then patiently waited for it to arrive. Before I could even get excited about it arriving, it was at our doorstep.


It had been raining all day when I came home from work to see it on our doorstep. It was placed in front of the door, wrapped in a clear plastic trash bag. The canvas was securely packaged in the box, the corners surrounded by extra cardboard for added support. When I opened it, the canvas was in perfect condition. 

The canvas itself is beautiful! Our kitchen is very colorful and has a "bright and cheerful" feel to it. This canvas now hangs on our wall across from the dining room table, in perfect view for all of our dinner parties. The colors on the canvas go perfectly in our kitchen. I love it!


A front and side view of the canvas.
