Thanks to 365Canvas for sending me this beautiful canvas. As always, all opinions are my own. There is a paid link in this post.
My parents celebrated their 35th wedding anniversary this year, and I wanted to find them a beautiful canvas print to showcase their amazing commitment to each other. I have two siblings so we decided to go together on a sunset cruise and dinner for them, as well as a stunning canvas from 365Canvas. 365Canvas offers a large variety of personalized canvases and it was tough to narrow down which anniversary option to choose! Here are just a few anniversary canvases they offer.
365 Customized Canvases
For my parents, I decided to go with the “You Will Forever Be My Always” Custom Photo Canvas. I wanted a canvas that would show their anniversary date as well as include a quote and photos which is why I went with this one; plus I thought the color scheme would match their living room or bedroom decor well. The process of creating the canvas was so simple on 365Canvas’ website. I was able to upload my photos and input my parents names and their wedding date just by clicking each section and adding my customization.
The canvas actually has spots for two photos, but I decided I’d like to include more than that on my parents canvas. I decided to do this because I wanted to include their wedding photo but they didn’t have a professional photographer, so their wedding photos aren’t very high quality. I knew their wedding photo alone wouldn’t translate well onto this large canvas, so I decided to make collages including their wedding photo, photos from our family as we were growing up, and more recent photos as well. I created these using a free program online, and then saved them to my computer and uploaded them on the 365Canvas website.
When I received the canvas in the mail, I was very happy with the quality and how the collages turned out. This is a 24″x12″ canvas and I think it’s the perfect size for an anniversary gift. You can (of course) use color photos on your own canvas, I just chose to make mine sepia to go with their color scheme and make the canvas less ‘busy’ looking. The canvas comes with a sawtooth hook on the back which makes hanging it simple.
We gave the canvas to my parents this weekend and they absolutely loved it! They think it’s beautiful and my mom told my dad he’d have to hang it up immediately. I think it was fun for them to see some of our older family photos and have a way to display those along with more recent photos of our growing crew. I wanted to show how their 35 years of marriage has blossomed into children, marriages, and grandchildren and I think this canvas was the perfect way to do that!
Hi there! I’m Amber, a 34 year old wife and mom of two from central Minnesota. I love to be outside with my family anywhere the weather is warm (which means I spend half the year freezing). We’re a homeschooling family that loves to travel as often as possible! When I have a spare free moment, I love to read, take photos, and scrapbook. I’m interested in anything that makes life more fun; I also love socializing and sharing about my favorite products!
Personalized gifts are so special and meaningful! I love photos too, they capture memories so we can look back. This canvas you had made is beautiful and I am sure it meant so much to your parents. 🙂 I would love to do something like this for my dad.
What a wonderful gift. I like how you went with a collage effect it will remind them of the years together. I also like how the sentiment is short and sweet and the way it looks. I am sure your folks will treasure it.
I love giving personalized gifts. It adds such a special sentiment and shows you put in the effort to not only get a gift but find the right quote or photo that the person getting it will appreciate.
I love canvas pictures, have not tried this company but will check them out. My great niece will be 3 in september and for each of her birthday I have got a canvas for her. I picked my favorite pictures, first year was mommy and Zay, second year was daddy and Zay and this year it is just Zay alone in her picture. I will have to check this company out for next year
