Mother's Day Gift Guide - Canvas Prints from Shutterfly

 ***Complimentary product received in exchange for an honest review***


As a mom of four, I know one of the things that makes me the happiest is getting a good picture of my children. I have spent thousands of dollars getting professional pictures done over the years, but often times I find my own home pictures are actually better and more natural. But printing those pictures is a hassle and I can't print jumbo copies that I can hang on my walls. That's where Shutterfly comes in. The last few years I have been using their website to create beautiful photos books of my favorite family pictures. Now they can also take your home photos and turn them into a high quality prints on a real canvas that are better than anything you'll get at a picture studio. Plus they are a fraction of the price.




 For my review, I was given a credit so I could create my own canvas. I have tried doing the canvas thing before, but honestly it was just too much work, and I got frustrated. You would have to adjust the picture to fit to the frame just right and do self editing, and I am just not that internet savvy or artistic. But Shutterfly makes it incredibly easy. All I had to do was choose which canvas I wanted and upload my favorite photos. I didn't even have to adjust the pictures at all. I picked which slots to add the images. One of the things I really liked was that I could add multiple pictures.  Its next to impossible to get all four kids smiling at the same time, and most of the other canvas companies I've tried only offer one image per canvas. This way, I have all smiles and I was even able to personalize the print with our family name.



I received by beautiful canvas only three days after I ordered it and I was so impressed with it. The quality is impeccable and it looks beautiful hanging on my wall. If you are looking for a great Mother's Day gift, a lovely canvas would make a wonderful gift for any mother or grandmother, and you can have it shipped right to their door.
