It's simple to make your canvas gift truly one-of-a-kind. Family photo, fun candid shot, a destination they love, a copy of a classic artwork they've always admired. You know the recipient well enough to find a beautiful picture - yours, theirs, or borrowed - that will be cherished and proudly displayed for decades!

Not only will you select the best image, you can also choose the size and depth of the display, the edge color, and any optional touch ups and or image effects. We will print, gallery wrap, and ship your print - we can even send it straight to the recipient with a nice message from you.

PICKING THE PERFECT GIFT

The image, the size, the display - these are all important things to consider when choosing wall decor as a gift. It should be something the recipient will love, not just something you'd like yourself! Here are some tips for selecting the best piece to give your friend or family member to show your appreciation for their help, advice, or just for being alive:

• Snoop around their house. Not into drawers and closets, but try to get a feel for the decorating scheme. If they like simple wallpapers and light shades, go for a picture in this same vein. Are they more into bold colors and styles? Choose a photo that reflects this wilder version of their personalities.

• Bring up home decor-related conversations, and then listen. Do they mention an area they wish was better decorated? How about a color scheme in the planning stages? If a blank wall is a subject of despair, sneak a measurement so you can order an artwork of the perfect size.

• Concerned about picking the right thing? Consider ordering a small image. No less thoughtful or eye-catching, a little 10x10" or 15x20" print fits perfectly in the front hall, office, or stairwell, and won't take over. Or, if you really have no idea, you can always just ask! It might not be a complete surprise, but it won't be any less appreciated.

• Still stuck? If you can't make up your mind for a single photograph or painting, consider a collage. We can arrange a handful of photos of the two of you, pictures of their garden, or snapshots of their favorite pet into a totally unique scrapbook or geometric collage. For information and ideas, visit our Photo Collages page.

• Once you've settled on the picture, consider the presentation. Do they already have a number of canvases to display around the house? If so, you might choose to stick with that style, or pick out one of our beautiful canvas floater frame to accentuate the picture.

• If you don't have access to the perfect image, or for any other reason you're unable to select a canvas print or frame, why not let them pick their own, on you! We offer Gift Certificates in custom denominations. We can send the recipient the code via email, or print a physical certificate and mail it straight to them!
