I am now in love with Photofiddle.com.  I had seen them before on other blogs, but had never used them myself.  My husband and I searched for a picture we wanted to be made into a canvas to hang in our home.  In light of Valentine’s Day, we chose a wedding picture and it turned out beautifully.  We went with the Black and White Sketch and love how it turned out!

The process was quick and easy.  You submit a picture and then choose how you want it to appear on the canvas.  There are a variety of display styles to choose from.  If I were to do it again, I would try the Oil Paint Mild.  I love the way they look!  When you are ordering your product, be sure to zoom it to 100% to see what it will look like when you get it.  Your product will arrive in perfect condition – as they did an awesome job packing it.  Plus, your canvas will come with a set of gloves for handling the canvas, so you don’t get dirt or oil smudges on the picture.

Photofiddle.com is a place to go when you’re looking for gifts – whether it’s for Valentine’s Day, Easter, Mother’s Day, a birthday…you name it!  At Photofiddle.com, you can create canvases of all sizes.  You’ll receive great customer service, fast turn-around time, and a beautiful end product.  Be sure to check them out today!

Thanks to Photofiddle.com, 1 lucky reader on The Mommy-Files will win a $50 gift certificate to Photofiddle.com!!!
