Print Photo on Canvas

Anyone done this that can tell me what the results are like? I'd like to do it for a couple of Christmas presents but am a bit wary of it looking tacky.

Best price I've found so far is Photoblock at 29.99 for roughly A4 size. Any cheaper/better?

thanks

    I've just had this done off my daughters wedding photos for the grandparents pressie. It turned out really lovely, and cost just under £40 for 22" x 15" from
    https://www.point101.com.

    We're really pleased with it and it was very quick and easy to upload the photo onto the site. They kept me informed of expected delivery etc which took about 10 days.
    I let my mind wander and it never came back!

    Thanks for the link, I'll take a look at that.

    It's nice to know the finished product looks good. It's not the sort of thing you can tell from the various websites so first hand experience is valuable :)

    Hi, I had this done for a photo I took on Holiday on my camera phone 1.3mega pixel. I found it quite cheap on ebay so i thought i would give it a try not thinking they would be able to do much withit. The quality they turned out was fantastic I was really pleased with the result. They altered the image for me making it look like it was taken on some kind of profesional camera, not my phone!

    They have a shop on ebay heres the link.

    http://stores.ebay.co.uk/BOX-CLEVER-CANVAS

    if you check out their feedback i left some on 25th June

    Also intercanvas have a £5 voucher if you email them and they run different offers each month. Customer service is excellent, just speak to Wendy. They can send you an email of your pic before you buy or you can have a speedy cheaper delivery. We upgrade to chunky frame for canvas.
  • Anyone had one done recently? Any recommendations? I'm looking for a fairly large canvas print in either black and white or sepia

    thanks ;)
