I recently received the opportunity to review a Printcopia.com product. I was excited at this opportunity to try out this site and their products.  I will go through the process with you and then give you my rating of the finished product.

First of all, you need to decide what picture or pictures you want to have turned into a print for your home or as a gift. Printcopia offers canvas, or acrylic prints, as well as nice framed or unframed basic prints from your photos. This is the hardest part of the process, choosing which photo to use! I wish I could turn all of my favorite photos into canvas or acrylic prints to hang on my wall, but that just isn't feasible. I finally decided to use a picture that we had taken of just my husband and I recently, as we do not have any pictures of us together like that.

Next I went to printcopia.com to begin the process of having them turn the photo into a canvas print. The site is easy to navigate. I was excited to see that you can use your instagram and/or facebook pictures, as well as uploading one from your computer. That can help make this easy process even easier! I was using a photo that I had on my computer though, so I chose "upload images". It takes you to a screen where you choose the size and thickness you want. I played around with several options, just to get a feel for the site. The site makes this a simple process. I chose the size I had been told I was getting for the review product and the standard thickness.

Then it was on to the next screen which is where you upload your picture or you can access an instagram or facebook album. I uploaded the picture I wanted to use. The site will tell you what quality your photo is after you upload it. You want to make sure your quality is Good, that way your print comes out looking great. A poor quality will get you a less than desirable print. Luckily my picture was Good quality, so I adjusted the picture in the handy preview box to where I wanted it and proceeded to the next step, which is border styles.

 There are three to choose from, Image Wrap, Mirror Image, and Border Color. After choosing my border I had the options for retouching the photo and for either sepia tones or black and white. I chose to leave my picture as it was taken and proceeded to add it to my cart. There is an option to add inexpensive wall mounts to your order and then you are ready to check out. The check out process is the same as with any site, so I will not get into all of that.

The shipping time was surprisingly quick. I received it in a short time and it was packaged very securely. Upon opening the package I found that the print had turned out perfectly! I was eager to hang it somewhere so that the whole family could enjoy seeing it.

The canvas print is wrapped around the frame and stapled securely to the frame. The print comes with the little hanging thing already mounted to the frame. The print feels pretty sturdy and I am not worried that it will get damaged if it happens to be knocked off of the wall by overactive kids running around. I avoid hanging pictures usually because they fall and the glass shatters everywhere, so this is a great alternative for me. Plus it just looks wonderful. I have my mind made up to get some more pictures made into canvas prints over the holidays. These would make great Christmas presents to myself from my husband!

My Review:

★★★★★

So here is my rating. For ease of use, the site gets five stars. I really don't see how they could have made the process any simpler.

For shipping speed and packaging, they get five stars again.

For quality of product, they get five stars. I love my canvas print and don't think it could have possibly turned out better! I am impressed with it and can't wait to get some more.

So, overall, this site gets five stars from me.
