I worked with two companies who offered me free canvasses in exchange of my honest review about their product and services. The big photo canvass that measures 16x20 is from Mailpix and the three small ones is from other company that I previously worked with.
I was disappointed with the crappy job I did on cropping the photo on the big one. I had a little difficulty doing the project at Mailpix. For a not-so-technical-savvy like me, it took me a while to figure out how to do it. I like the tools at the other company better because it is very user-friendly and uploading and cropping your photo is not hard. But I take full responsibility of the end result of the product because I did not pay attention to what it would look like when printed.
What I would suggest is for Mailpix to have a preview feature where they would present the final look of the project before finalizing it for printing, that would be great. Or they could even make suggestions how you could improve your project. Other than that, I think that the quality of the materials they use is worth the money you are paying for.

Anyhow, both companies offered high quality photo canvasses.
Thanks a lot Mailpix! If you want to get connected with them and get some updates of their deals, follow them on Twitter and like them on Facebook. Turning images into Memories is what Mailpix does best.
Lovely family shots ~adorable!

At least, you know how to crop. I wish I did.
ReplyDeletetoo bad the top of the heads are cropped, nevertheless, the photo canvasses do look great.
ReplyDeletetoo bad printcopia do not ship to the Philippines, they offered me a free canvass in exchange for a blog review. tsk! i would've loved to have a photo of my little man made into a canvass....
to bad about the heads. They should have croped it below.
ReplyDeletelovely keepsake for the family
ReplyDeleteI have not heard of photo canvases like this! Sounds like a great idea!
ReplyDeleteI found a great place to send stuff to..I got two photos printed there and was happy with them.
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing! I love custom items and I would love to blow up our picture and hang it on the wall. :)
ReplyDeleteSuch great photos - love the shadow effect of the plants as well!
ReplyDeleteI find the picture of your children very uniquely appealing specifically because of the unexpected way it turned out. Things do not need to be perfect to be perfectly beautiful.

Kung medyo nai-center lang yung photo ng kids mo, then mas maganda sana. But a thing need not be perfect to see its beauty.
ReplyDeleteAdorable.... nothing sweeter than gorgeous shots of our children!
ReplyDeleteNice portrait, a very sweet couple.
ReplyDeleteToo bad their heads are cropped but otherwise, photo canvases are great. I've had a couple done as gifts for my sisters.

I like them! thank you for stopping by pret-a-vivre.
ReplyDeleteI love my Mailpix stuff! Actually sis, kahit naman you made a little mistake in cropping the photo, maganda pa rin yung canvass. :)
ReplyDeleteThe photo canvass turned out beautiful Sis Rose besides the models are gorgeous :-) I never work with Mailpix but I did have free coupons that I use with 4x6 prints and love the result :-)
ReplyDeleteLike the photo.
ReplyDeleteI would have known about the cropping issue you have with the big canvass. It still looks artsy.
ReplyDeleteWow! Bongga naman, free photo canvass :) Ang cute naman ng mga photos na napa-frame mo. Certainly worth keeping!
ReplyDeleteGusto ko din try yan, Ate Rose.. Nakita ko kase sa Pinterest.. Kaso lagi ko nakakalimutan dumaan sa craft store para bumili ng canvas pag nasa labas kami.. Ang galing ng pagkakagawa ninyo! =)
ReplyDeleteI love phamily photos! These are wonderful and I think you did a really great job! Have fun and enjoy your week!
ReplyDeleteBoth have good quality, I must say.
ReplyDeletePlus, the two kiddos are so adorable. ♥
Love the result, Rose!
ReplyDeleteI love how the light shines brightly through the window corner of the room. Beautiful canvas photos of the children. Looks like you did a great job with that. I would like to work with that media one day. Thanks for the tips, Rose.
ReplyDeleteIt's interesting to see the difference between company's products, because they do differ! Sometimes it's worth to åpay a bit more and get a better canvas, but sometimes the cheaper one is sufficient.
ReplyDeleteGreat post!
LOVE the photo wall!!!
ReplyDeleteI know you didn't like the way you cropped it, but your children still look very sweet. Blessings!
ReplyDeleteyou got some beautiful photo canvass there.Your kids are adorable.
