The Wonder of Canvas Photo Prints | Canvas Print Ideas

Today, we are going to share with you some canvas photo prints ideas are and how they can beautify your home. If you need a quick introduction to canvas photo prints, check out our blog post on the Basics of Canvas Printing before proceeding.

So why should we even print on canvas? Why don’t we just stick to printing on photo paper? Here’s a rather simple comparison between the two:

Printing on Canvas

Does not require a border/frame
Photo has a painted-on effect
Sides of the canvas are a continuation of the image (for canvas image wraps)
Has a 3D effect
Can be displayed in semi-humid environments (eg. Toilets)

Printing on Paper

Reflections from light can cause glare (especially for glossy finishes)
Details of the photos are clearly visible due to smooth surface
Framed prints can get quite heavy for larger sizes (depending on the frame used)

With the comparison now in place, let us now explore further on the various uses/ pros of canvas photo prints.

1. Big and Sophisticated Enough to be the Only Decorative Item

These glorious canvas photo prints are so majestic on their own that many simply hang it up on their wall as their only decorative item to suit the theme of the room. There’s no need to clutter a place up just to decorate a place. For those who want to create the image of a larger room, this is one thing you can definitely consider adding to your cart.

Not only that, canvas photo prints have a dreamy feel with the photo having a painted-on effect. Many couples chose to print their wedding photos eventually in canvas prints to give them a softer and frameless look.

2. One Photo, Multiple Canvas Photo Prints

Also known as split canvas prints, every photo is ‘cut up’ into various canvas panels. This creates a very different kind of wall art as compared to just framed up prints.

3. Let your imagination run wild, create any pattern you want!

Who said only one canvas print will look good while being hung up on the wall? Create a wall collage by featuring various photos that will bring back memories. Allow your creative juices to flow, choose how you want them to be displayed! You can even draw up an image of how you would like your wall to look like, then print your canvas prints to achieve the intended result.

The borderless effect really does make the room look “cleaner” and more contemporary. Let’s not visualise and look at the difference below!
