Earlier this month I received an email from Melissa Pont from BuildASign.com offering me an opportunity to review one of their canvas prints from their new division called Easy Canvas Prints. Normally I don't do product reviews, but I received a very nice street sign from them earlier in the year, so I thought I would check out their website. They offer a wide range of prints from fine arts to nature scenes, and a variety of different sizes, like 10x8, 8x8, 20x16, 24x36, or customize your own size. If you're not interested in any of their prints you can create your own by using a family photo, a picture of your pet, wedding photos, vacation photos, etc..
I'm an author of children short stories, and I've always admired the illustration by Melissa Stagi-Zepeda from my first published story, Full Moon. After getting permission from the illustrator, I clicked on the Start Designing button. I selected the 10x8 size, then the 3/4 inch wrap thickness (there is also a 1.5 inch wrap), I clicked continue, and then uploaded the picture. I selected what border I wanted, and then went through the shipping stuff. Overall, it took me less than five minutes to place the order. The site states that the production time is between 3-4 days, but my order was only two. The order was placed on Friday and I received a shipping confirmation email on Monday. It arrived yesterday afternoon by UPS in a neatly safe package. I smiled when I saw my characters staring back at me. The print was much better than the small .jpg copy I had saved. I hung the canvas near my desk.
