Stuck for Buying Unique Gifts?
Have you ever been stuck for a gift for “someone who has it
all”? You know, the usual “What would you like?” and the stock reply “I’m not
fussy” leaving you with the conundrum about what to get them. Obviously
“nothing” isn’t going cut it and likewise there is a limit on how many times
you can buy sweets / chocolate / flowers / jewellery / perfume etc. So you
struggle on trying to find something suitable (that they don’t have already)
and start to go down the gift voucher road - “It’s a gift and they can use it
how they like”, but…. It’s not very personal and it looks like you put little
or no effort into their gift. Wouldn’t it be better if you could buy them a
gift which is not only unique to them, is fun to do, and also guaranteed that
they don’t have already? Well now you can!
Pictures Made From Words
We can take your photos and combine them with a personal
message to form a picture made out of the words from your message that is in
the shape of the photo.

That’s got you thinking now, hasn’t it? You know that your gift is going to be the
best!
Unique Gifts
As unique gifts go these are easy to think of - you know that person really well and what
their likes are, what their hobbies are and even their personality traits. So
choose something they cherish, write a loving message, combine them together
and et voilà - the perfect present! They’re ideal for Birthdays, Weddings,
Anniversaries, Christmas, Christenings, Valentines - any occasion that’s special
for people, and they’re equally just as good in picture frames as they are on
stretched canvas prints.

Fun Designs
Did we mention they’re fun to do? I’ve personally managed to
spend lots of time “researching” photos that look really good and turning them
into pictures made out of words: “I’ll just try this one”, “and then this one”,
“oh, and then that one would look really good”…. And then your afternoon just
disappears. Back to work! In fact I know you already have quite a few photos in
mind and are wondering what they would look like - it’s addictive.

Bold Shapes
Choose a photo that’s personal to them and make sure it’s
quite a bold shape - try to select something that is easily recognisable and
fills a lot of the picture. Fine detail photos are not ideal - close ups work better.
It’s also best to remove the background to make the shape stand out with the
finished picture. We can even help remove the background in the photo if you
need us to. As for the message, well that’s up to you (we won’t tell!)

Printing Your Pictures
Once you have a photo that you think would work well - send
it to us with your personal message to info@canvasprintmaker.co.uk or
use our upload section. We will then prepare a proof of your masterpiece and
once you’re happy we’ll print it and despatch it for you - easy! So even if you
can’t make it to the celebration you can let your friends and family know that
you really were thinking of them by
sending them a uniquely personal gift.
Happy Printing!
