How to Choose the Right Canvas Print for Your Home

How to Choose the Right Canvas Print for Your Home

Refreshing your walls with new art is so exciting, but it can be overwhelming choosing which size and image. The nice thing about my canvas prints is that there is a wide variety to choose from, and in many size options. Choosing the right print for your home should first and foremost start with your connection to an image/piece of art. You want to bring joy and tranquility into your home, so when you see that piece that really calls to you... start there! You want to have a piece that will bring you the best feeling every day, as well as memories of time well spent at the lake!

Beyond that, pay attention to your space and the colours that are prevalent around you. Often, we don't notice that we gravitate to certain colours, or colour hues until we look around. This is an indication of what colours and hues truly make you happiest. Do you prefer warm colours or cool colours? Dramatic sunsets or bright sunny blue skies? Take some time to ask yourself what would bring your room together best, as well as what would make you the happiest!

Next: Choose the right size. Here's an easy way to do this: Take some painters tape and mark the shape on your wall that you want to fill with a new piece of artwork. Move it around until it feels like the right size (use some sticky notes if you don't have painters tape). Then, measure that space and find the size of print closest to it. If you're in between sizes, always choose the larger option, as it's better to have a piece of art that's too big than too small. 

Once you've picked your size and print, you can easily try it out on your wall with the special feature on my website under each print or original painting (the prompt will say "try it out on your wall") using your phone. Try a few of them and see what fits best!

The nice thing about my canvas prints, is that they are ready to hang as is without a frame. So, once you've picked the one that's best for you it will be ready to hang up as soon as it arrives at your door. Each print is hand-made to order locally by my printing partner, (in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada) and shipped for free (in Canada) to your doorstep via courier. You can usually expect it to arrive 5-14 days after ordering. 

And if you have any questions or need a second opinion about the prints you're deciding on, feel free to reach out to me anytime!
