Too often they remain forever on my laptop.
When Canvas Designs offered us the opportunity to review to capture one of our favourite images on a canvas we were a little stumped.
We decided, as we are surrounded by photos of the children's milestones that we'd go back to how it all began.
With us.
We chose a photo, it was difficult, but this was the one that we both loved.
Taken by an awesome photographer and awesome friend (and also an awesome gardener!).Our final three photos were all taken by Andrea.
And so our photo was ordered.
Using Canvas Designs is really straightforward: upload your photo, select the best sizing for your photo and order.
Simple.
And then it arrives, by the handy courier who lets you change the date the day before, and on the day narrows it down to the hour.
And you take receipt of your canvas, fantastically packaged (lots of rainy day cardboard and bubble wrap).
And the canvas?
I'll be honest.
I thought I had ordered the wrong image (I even double checked).
I had used a high quality photograph.
And had no idea from viewing it on my screen of the detail it held.
The canvas brought every detail to our lounge.
The canvas captures us on that day.
The smiles, the flowers, the confetti.
Of such high quality that a photograph misses.
I had wanted to have it in my office to look at on a daily basis.
No such luck.
Mr J decided he wanted it in the lounge and went to the extreme of hanging it without my help.
And the great fittings which Canvas Designs supply means it has taken it's place.
A reminder during our everydays of our special day.
And not only have Canvas Designs generously offered a 15% discount to any order placed using the code BLOG15 but they've also agreed to offer my lovely readers the chance to win their own canvas, of any size they choose, from Canvas Designs.
