For this review, Canvas Factory allowed me to create my very own Canvas Photo Print and I chose the 18x12 inch and used a picture of me, my sister, and niece in the pool. 

(this is a picture of my canvas photo print hanging on my wall)

The Canvas Factory website has a nice, easily navigated layout and creating a Canvas Photo Print is so easy and effortless! The process of creating a photo print is so simple to follow and quick. The production and shipping times are quick as well, which is always a great bonus. I also enjoyed browsing all the other neat products they offer, such as metal and acrylic prints and wall art. 

  

This was my second time having a photo transferred onto canvas by The Canvas Factory and once again I was absolutely blown away when I received the finished product above. The print is so clear and bright, with stunning color quality. I love the large 18x12 size and how wonderfully it hangs on the wall and how sturdy it feels. The photo quality itself is very impressive and lovely, and I love how the photo actually wraps around the edges of the canvas. But you can also choose a solid color or mirror wrap effect. And you can even add text to your print!  

I’m so happy with my finished Canvas Photo Print and super impressed with The Canvas Factory, its website, and products. I will definitely be using this site for any future photo products! 

Little A (my niece) was so excited when our canvas print arrived, as you can see here:

Product Review: Custom Photo Puzzle from Collage.com

From time to time, Word Spelunking is asked to write product reviews. Sometimes these are book related products, sometimes they are not. Today, I have a non-book related product review to share...

For this review I received a custom photo puzzle, specifically, a Kids 11x14 30-pieces puzzle. The custom photo puzzles also come in these sizes: Kids 16x20 56-pieces, Adult 8x10 110-pieces, Adult 11x14 252-pieces, Adult 16x20 520-pieces, Adult 20x20 676-pieces, and Adult 20x30 1014-pieces. Collage.com describes their custom photo puzzles as: 

• Vibrant printing on high-quality, glossy photo paper with a firm backing 
• Includes sturdy black storage box with your design on the label 
• Add as many or as few photos as you want - every photo puzzle is your own! 
• Printed in the USA 

I’m a huge fan of Collage’s website because it so easy to navigate and use! The design editor is especially a breeze to use. Once you start a custom photo project, you can upload your photos from your computer, Facebook, Google Photos, or Instagram, and photos upload quickly. And I love that you can add as many or as little photos as you want to your custom project(s). I decided to make a custom puzzle for my five year old niece and I had so much fun designing it!  

Collage offers SO many designs, layouts, backgrounds, and all-around options. They’ve made designing their puzzles super easy by offering pre-made designs and layouts depending on how many pictures you want to use. Editing (cropping, adding filters, etc) and rearranging photos is super easy and just takes a few clicks. For our puzzle, I chose six photos of my niece with her mommy and daddy and chose the cute Family Sticks Together design. From patterns, holidays, kids, a pattern builder, and more, there are 11 background categories and dozens of different backgrounds to choose from. You can even add text to your puzzles and the designer builder makes sure your text is perfectly placed and aligned.  

Production and shipping times are awesomely quick; my custom photo puzzles arrived less than a week after placing my order. The puzzles come in a sturdy storage box with a picture of your puzzle on the front: 

The printing and picture quality are excellent! Our photos are bright and clear, with no fuzziness or distortion. The actual pieces feel very sturdy, are the perfect large size for little hands, and fit together perfectly. My niece absolutely loved her puzzle and put it together three times in row! 

Overall, from the website, design builder, production, shipping, and product quality I am very impressed. The custom photo puzzle makes a wonderfully unique and one of a kind gift that people of all ages will enjoy and treasure.

Product Review: Photo Blanket from Collage.com

From time to time, Word Spelunking is asked to write product reviews. Sometimes these are book related products, sometimes they are not. Today, I have a non-book related product review to share...

For this review, I received a photo blanket from Collage.com, specifically a 50x60 sherpa throw. The sherpa throw photo blanket, which also comes in the 60x80 queen size, is described on Collage.com as: 

• Soft and snuggly sherpa arctic fleece. 
• Your design in crisp detail on the front; cream-colored sherpa fleece on the back. 
• Add as many or as few photos as you want - every photo blanket is your own! 
• Printed in the USA 

My entire experience with Collage.com, from using their custom design builder to their processing and shipping times, and receiving the final product was just wonderful and impressive. I started the process of ordering my sherpa throw by using the product builder, which is very easy to use and offers a huge selection of options to create the most unique and custom products. Unlike other sites, the product builder on Collage.com allows you to add as many pictures as you want, which is really cool. The product builder allows you to make a custom collage template or start with one of their many attractive designer templates. These designer templates cover a wide range of celebrations and themes, from anniversaries, family, baby, holidays, and more.  

I chose to use the custom collage template. Uploading my chosen pictures was super simple. The product builder makes arranging, resizing, and fixing your photos uncomplicated and easy to do. And after arranging my photos, I had so much fun choosing the perfect background/border for my collage. There are a ton of great backgrounds to choose from, from solid colors, patterns, different themes, and more, and they’re organized in easy to navigate categories. You can also add text to your photo blanket, customize the borders of your photos, arrange your photos into shapes, and even add photo filters. Overall, the product builder offers an excellent variety of design options and is simple to use. 

I was super impressed with the quick processing and shipping times as I received my photo blanket less than a week after ordering it, which was an awesome surprise...and the final product is superb! The blanket itself is high quality, made from soft, dreamy sherpa, with a great shareable size, perfect for cuddling. And the picture quality is fantastic! My photos are crisp and bright, with no blurriness or distortion of any kind. The colors of my chosen background (tie dye) are even brighter and fun than I imagined.   

As you can see from the photos below, I chose to create my collage from photos featuring my niece and her daddy at her first Carolina Panthers football game and I absolutely love how cute, one-of-a-kind, and perfect it turned out...and clearly Little A loves it too and is super proud of her new blankie. 

You never know what you’re going to end up with when it comes to custom product sites, but Collage.com has surpassed my expectations! From beginning to end, my experience customizing and creating my product couldn’t have been easier and the final product is wonderful. I know that Little A will enjoy and cherish her photo blanket for many years to come.
