Valentines Gift Giving With Posterjack

Chocolates have been overdone.  Flowers are beautiful but they don’t last.  And when it comes to buying a gift for him?  A neck-tie just doesn’t seem to say “I cherish you,” like we want it to.

This year, I opted to create a photo art project with Posterjack as a gift to my husband (who, thankfully, doesn’t really like neck ties anyway and takes the chocolates I don’t like out of the box once I’ve already gone through it!)

We have a large feature wall in our open living room/dining room that, until now, displayed one large canvas painting that somehow wasn’t large enough.  I eventually moved it to our rec room and for a few months have had an empty wall full of potential.

Creative paintings are beautiful, but not nearly as beautiful as my three children so I was eager to create something with Posterjack! My initial idea was a four-square pop-art portrait with canvas without the technicolor.  However, once I started planning out the spacing on the wall, I realized I had a big wall and didn’t need to use only the center space.

The most popular sizes for canvas wall art are listed when you first land on the canvas section at Posterjack, but none of them were a perfect square.  Thankfully, just utilizing the drop-down menu for more sizes allowed me to find the perfect square size of 16×16 ($69.99).  However, if you aren’t picky on having a square, the more popular size of 16×24 is just $10 more at $79.99.

Back to my squares.

Instead of putting them together pop-art style, we decided to spread them out and stagger them – of course in chronological order – which took up more space on the large feature wall.

Hanging them was easy, as the canvas wall art was ready to hang upon delivery!  I love how perfect this collection of canvas wall art is in our household – so much better than a painting with no significance.

After putting up the canvas pictures last night, I remarked to my husband, “We’re kind of all about pictures of our family on our walls, aren’t we?” to which he replied, “Well why not, we’re surrounded by those we love the most.”

He has a point.  What better way to celebrate Valentines Day, or any occasion, than creating wall art so you too can surround yourself with those you love the most, whether they’re far away or spilling a cup of milk on the table as we speak.
